Don’t Look Down

Helms Deep, Kaloreiz

Doc on the beat

Yeah


[Verse 1: Helms Deep]

I see leaves of green and skies of blue

A future backyard sitting here before you

Bounce on the clutch, know it seems so true

One tall building stands as a visual

Accepting all others, man we reciprocal

At the same time your pops like damn they so sinister

But how would you feel, recessed without a job

Oil signed this deal, blessed we are thought

Nodak the nation’s new melting plot

Things never change, we let the peelings rot

Feeling distraught like the tempos is changing

Tempur pedic flow, the supports amazing

Endure lesions, heal and make it

The blessings sacred like an entity

When it was handed to me at the age of 3

And I was singing JT, something crazy happened in me

I dropped the pop, mixed in the indie

Got Nolan on board, and the rest was history

It’s been sentenced to me, they call me Helms D

I’m here to make my mark, plant a seed and leave

Shout out to MC Zach for the strength to proceed


[Hook: Kaloreiz/Helms Deep/Doc Mcfly]

No guts, No glory, it all goes fast

But our future holds something like the past

Don’t Look Down, you’ll miss an instant

Watch your life fly by, just live in the minute! (Repeat X2)


[Verse 2: Helms Deep]

Step on stage, patient but tragic

Genesis of Grace, the new Illmatic

Flow spurratic, so I now facilitate

Blending in some soul, when the pen is straight

I take a left, then to the prefrontal cortex

I’m deep in thought, then onto the chorus

For this I’d give my heart or two

To realize my words have blessed you

Caught up in a nested hole, of lyrics untold

If life’s what you make it, why is it so cold?

Why do we use italics when we trying to be bold?

The fallacies seem so instrumental

We could blend it on paper

Make these lyrics so hateful

Or we can turn it around and become the label


[Hook: Kaloreiz/Helms Deep/Doc Mcfly]

No guts, No glory, it all goes fast

But our future holds something like the past

Don’t Look Down, you’ll miss an instant

Watch your life fly by, just live in the minute! (Repeat X2)


[Verse 3: Helms Deep]

It’s all a fable, I’m stuck in a hair net

Workin 9-5’s to pay for a tariff

Blamed time, for taken my spirit

But energy comes from the things we cherish

Not embarrassed, but the thoughts seemed true

Switched to psych, now it’s all about you?

Do you like my style do you hate my flow?

Look down at the tile, hit a stake in the road

I’m bouncing off ideals what do you take me for?

I could live as a refugee and write my score

Smoke spliffs in a hoop d, 10 nike drawers

Spit, learn and grow and recite the clause

You got me I’ll fight for the poor

Give breath to the mic, and my sights in glow

Equilibirum is the balance I’m feeling

Leave habits in the dust, give rights to meaning

This life’s a journey so don’t stop believing

Won’t stop til my art is leaking

Are you hearin’ what im’ speakin’?

Never leaving, but scared of treason

I make cents on rhyme and reason

Breakin out this winter, it’s the time of season

I was gone for a minute, but I’ll never be leaving

Y’all better believe it

Y’all better believe it


[Hook: Kaloreiz/Helms Deep/Doc Mcfly]

No guts, No glory, it all goes fast

But our future holds something like the past

Don’t Look Down, you’ll miss an instant

Watch your life fly by, just live in the minute! (Repeat X2)


[Verse 4: Helms Deep]

If I gave up tomorrow there’d be no hope

I end the sorrow by climbing the rope

I wait on these pages for an antidote

When my homework distracts me, I’m stuck in the moat

Can’t get to the castle, said I wasn’t handsome

But that’s okay I held the place for ransom

Camera’s is snappin as I run with the glory

Word through rappin’s how I tell my story

If the crowd is snoring, bring up the base a bit

If you listen to these lyrics you’ll know I’m legit

Asking for a hit, see It’s complex I’m casting

Reeling in sharks, I make proof through plaster

Drownin in science, but make sense of matter

Shouting out defiance, just left the ladder

Kidnap yal soul’s and hands

Put em in the air if you just wanna dance

Time’s not fair, so there’s a change of plans

Push back the tape and shake some hands

Blush red face, you see tears at glance

I could take this beat and make romance

Or mix in feelings and shake a laugh

Yeah

Flashback I’m the kid still listening

Fulfilling this passion as the song is finishing
