II Kings - Undertow lyrics

[Hook: DMB] I'm searching for the light, like I'm putting on a show.. You tried to hold me down, but I'm making room to grow.. This music's my escape, cause there's nowhere left to go.. I feel it deep below.. I'm caught by the undertow.. [Verse 1: DMB] I feel the clutch, of an invisible source I've got the touch of an unlimited force So when you're ready, keep your hand on your machete If your load is heavy, you won't get a second to pause Of course, I'm talking 'bout this generation I'm fed up with this entire federation We must reduce the segregation Deduce the devastation, and introduce a better nation Because your ego's gotten too strong Because a bible's not a coupon That's why we've written you this new song So I can scream, "Move on or put your noose on!" Now we've got a new path, to undergo And you wonder where'd the rain and the thunder go Stuck somewhere in between, where the gra** was still green I guess it means I must be caught by the undertow.. [Hook] [Verse 2: DMB] Yes I've been wandering these plains for a long time Just to chase away the pains from the front-line And I hope it's not in vain, as I open up this vein Cause you miss your own heart and now you want mine But I've got a new plan that I'm gonna stick with So much heat - turns your lungs into a liquid And you think you are instinctive I think you are restricted and now about to be evicted What are you waiting for this whole time I've been working hard, slaving in this gold mine Now that I've earnt myself a frozen heart I will send a cold rhyme down your whole spine Cause you think you're steel, but you ain't hard I've been locked up in a cage, now I break apart With your game card, standing in the graveyard This kind of danger wasn't made for the feint of heart.. [Hook] [Verse 3: Elusive] My mind's complex - four dimension Like I ain't waiting to die, but I'm training for ascension Although I'm never gonna win that war Cause the only thing I'm still fighting for is your attention Yet the only thing I do is hide I tried to push through, instead I pushed, you aside So much for my confidence, I couldn't put up a defense Now I ain't stuck here on the fence, I'm jumping, sui(side) But since I've made my decision It's like the only thing I'm headed for is a collision I guess I'm looking back, I wanna give the past another visit Cause all that I exhibit now is inhibition And in addition, I guess there is a point Cause you and I, just seem to be at a different point In our careers, like what kinda rapper would try to diss us, and still miss I guess that happens when you (disappoint).. [Hook x 2]
