letra de altitude iii: don’t look down - nks (nz)

[part i]

[refrain]
don’t look down
look at me in my eyes
don’t look down
keep your head held up high
don’t look down
i know you’re careful where you step
but don’t look down
these distractions all around
will free you from the shackles of the-
don’t look down
look at me in my eyes
don’t look down
keep your head held up high
don’t look down
i know you’re careful where you step
but don’t look down
these distractions all around
will free you from the shackles of the ground

[outro]
don’t look down (don’t look down)
don’t look, don’t look, down
don’t look down
don’t look down, yeah yeah
[part ii]

[verse]
wistful contemplation based off my day to day observations
intermittent concentration
dissecting my brain like an operation
tryna find that correlation between my emotions and my thoughts i’m crossing ways with
no cooperation between them
the bridge between the body and the mind was the hardest hit
by the complications which i’m harbouring
but did it ever occur to me that i might be a part of it
i’ve come to a realisation that obstacles play vital components
in life from the day you’re born, my friend
it’s something that the younger self would rarely ever bother with
but something that the older self discovers with a consequence
this made me ponder what causes the mindset to shift
like where is it, where did it go, all that confidence
where did it come from, all that stress and that cautiousness
the sense of reasoning gets more technological
false merits slowly dehumanising all of us
tryna stay emotionless but i find that impossible
why do i call myself the young boy
‘cause you can’t be a man if you are in your feelings
is that is pill i wanna be swallowing
how can i be responsible when i waste no time to squander it
bought and ate a whole m-ffin just to taste the chocolate chips
my number of objectives never ending like the shopping list
tug of war between a state of content and a state of hunger
tension ensues as mental debating is undertaking
spread across my daily routine, it’s now my bread and b-tter
distant expressions, persistent questions, i wonder
there’s a reason why i’m occasionally disconnected
[interlude]
h-llo?
h-llo?
can you hear me?
h-llo?
he-

[segue]
surely it’s this one

[part iii]

[spoken intro]
allow some time now
for you to take a break
from the outside world

[refrain]
rising, rising hot air balloon
falling, falling like parachute
these heights give panoramic views
but i know too well ‘bout altitude
rising, rising hot air balloon
falling, falling like parachute
these heights give panoramic views
but i know too well about altitude, altitude
[verse]
evaded the metaverse ‘cause i got better work
the cheque mega, collect the cents up
i don’t have a card, so i don’t spend none
if i did i know i’d lack that self-control
it’s an ability i’m actively tryna develop
the young boy has his cravings and his leisures
and yo, i really can’t lie, i feel like i gotta ‘fess up
by putting my feet up, i’ve repeatedly folded under pressure
that’s how it goes
thinking that i’m doing the most
but when i see it in a different light, i ain’t filled with pride
spotted something or another that just isn’t right
no one’s trying to be ill-advised though
no matter how big or small, everyone’s committed crimes
some of the most common one’s include k!lling time
but rarer ones include stealing limelight and k!lling rhymes
i’m more worried about a bigger strife
eighteen years in, i’m still unsure how i wanna live my life
it remains a building site
foundation strong, that’s where i hit a wall
chilling thoughts engulf my mind, it’s bleeding like the wilting light
dinner time, sambar rice with the potato and the broccoli
but my mind’s taking an odyssey
a lot of things be bothering me
nights lying tryna decipher what be wrong with me
that’s often what the topic be
is it ‘cause i’m tryna have the upper hand constantly
my quantity mars my quality
subconsciously it’s causing me all kind of things
my curiosity is reaching a plateau
but just ‘cause we older doesn’t mean we can’t grow
our feet can remain on the pedal like piano
my uncle’s beethoven, my grandfather’s mozart
it’s not game over ‘till the game’s over
heaven left their gates open, i rode the wave like noah’s ark
hah, the way i’m stunting, it’s stressing out the coast guard
i disobeyed the flow chart
hit my praises with a shoulder shrug
tryna stay humble for the most part
my brothers and my sisters are my co-stars
still learning new tricks as i get old, dog
i don’t bark but i love to go on walks
i’m only going forward, ain’t reversing like the old ball
custom-made my veins out of ice from the cold dawn
still, so calm
quiet roads, the sky grows dark
light breeze in the evening, peace is most sought after
now hold on, it’s time to me to go ‘cause i gotta
lay another beat in the boneyard
so soz

[refrain]
rising, rising hot air balloon
falling, falling like parachute
these heights give panoramic views
but i know too well ‘bout altitude

[outro]
they say don’t look down, i say why look up
saw the highway but i find peace in my avenue
they say don’t look down, i say why look up
once the plane lands, who’ll care about that altitude
