This song is about how under appreciated I felt at the time, the angst of being ahead of the curve and knowing like a real hype beast the value of my art and person before it could be culturally affirmed. Everyone claims they wanna be futuristic and shit but struggle to comprehend the things and peo...
[Chorus]
Meditating, what you saying? Don’t wait on me
It take time like wait and see no make believe
Down to ride, we’d rather fly though lately
Out of touch
now what you feel, that's latency
That’s latency, that's latency, woah oh oh
That’s latency, just latency, oh oh oh
[Verse 1]
Sea water, ocean water, feel the wave
High tide, I'm in deep but it's okay
Amandeep, lil' foreign thing, that was her name
Lean on me but I can’t be your remedy (No way)
I put my time in constructing the vibe
Tryna survive keep your ass on the side
Fuck me for now but don’t fuck up the vibe
'Cause you know that I get it without switching sides
Ping ping, over air ting, tryna connect
Load up, log in, "Hello okay", just hit me direct
Where to begin? What is the flex?
You on the fence, don't take offence
All of my niggas they know what it is
Fuck up the plan and we cannot be friends
Here's where we end, end, end, end, end
It gon take a second for this shit to settle in
[Chorus]
Meditating, what you saying? Don’t wait on me (Don’t wait on me, wait on me)
It take time like wait and see no make believe (No make believe)
Down to ride, we’d rather fly though lately (Woah oh)
Out of touch
now what you feel, that's latency (Woah oh)
That’s latency (Latency, hmm), that's latency (That's latency, hmm), woah oh oh
That’s latency, just latency, oh oh oh
[Verse 2]
Stick break in between your ears
Hard head don't mean can't hear
Heartless but you can fear
Loveless, you ain't out of touch, I'm so out of reach, what's a ladder?
Lasso, aww hell no, you went out of style like last year
Tryna connect need the password
We don't ask we just override
I've been lit since like '09 (Like '09)
Flow switch like a hunnid times (hunnid times)
Gas lit, a whole lot of fire
Wood burn, like a forest fire
I would die every winter time
And come back alive in the summer time
Look through my eyes, you don't live this life
(no way)
[Chorus]
Meditating, what you saying? Don’t wait on me (Don’t wait on me, yeah)
It take time like wait and see no make believe (No make believe, yeah)
Down to ride, we’d rather fly though lately
Out of touch
now what you feel, that's latency (That's latency, that's latency)
That’s latency, that's latency, woah oh oh
That’s latency, just latency, oh oh oh
