Deep Thought - Intellectual

[Verse 1: Johnny Go Deep]

Late night my mind is driftin'

Stressin' and overthinkin'

I got some shit that’s on my mind

Deep thoughts are creepin'

I’m thinkin' bout my family

Contemplatin' decisions

And hope the ones I pick pertain to my vision

But now these voices in my head

Man I don’t know who to trust

The world keep changin' everyday

And I’m just tryna adjust

Feelin' the pressure like a diamond that come out from the rough

I think I need to talk to God cuz I don’t do it enough

But I know that

I’m not perfect

I’m still workin'

Been diggin' deep for my purpose

I’m growin'

Still learnin'

Fire inside of me burnin'

I’m really just tryna make this shit work

Push problems to my side, but it still hurt

Smile on my face

But I’m cut deep

That explains why

I get no sleep

Umbrellas don’t stop the rain like

Teardrops don’t stop the pain

Gotta stay up despite the change and

Keep straight never switch lanes

And never complain about the life I was given

Pray that all of my sins are forgiven

Been buildin' faith from the very beginning

I just want my dreams to all come to fruition

[Chorus]

You wanna go deep, I'll take you deep

[Verse 2: SoVersetile]

I used to be a Christian, now I'm wishing

That my daddy daddy daddy never came without permission

See I'm missing all the points where my bible really different

Coming to America?

More like coming to a prison

Shout out Issa cause a negro really bright cause of my prism

1864 good riddance

Now I'm supposed to celebrate these people Christmas?

I think I'll settle for taking they white women

I really moved to the meadows

Next to all these nice fellas

DBT found my levels

I stopped recording in the ghetto

Keep the purple flag Donatello

But I still feel like Michelangelo

Hoes blow my kazoo

I play the banjo

Don't activate my whole bando

Not Good Enough, so I'm signing up

My head ain't been

Touched in months

Come line me up

Next chance I get I'm taking drugs

I'm either popping something or I'm taking slugs

I'm hella young, but hella sprung

These hoes hate me, they hella dumb

But then again these hoes is hoes

And we all know they eat hella cum

All this pressure on me, hope I turn into a diamond

Honestly I'm really pissed I should've fucked ****

Kicked out of school because of ****, should've fucked ****

Oh my God

Why the fuck you lying?

All these damn bars, boy who are you supplying?

Maybe Lucifer himself

Shit they thought I was a Zion

Read the Bible more than you

In fact I read some of two

King James shit, the cult one too

They the same damn thing one just look brand new

[Verse 3: Sage of Six]

What if I can't make it out of the basement?

A brand new slave in the making

Will I surpass my limitations?

Or just get lost in amazement

Am I really destined for greatness?

Cause I've been losing my patience

I can't even come up with a hit

Can I make it on to your playlist?

I just wanna transcend while I'm still young

Just starting to learning my lessons and the reasons we conform

Since '98 still a baby, but my growth was for real stunted

By a fear of failure 'til Kru came with the pills fronted

My homie fronted me courage

So I took it to the stove, rocked it up

And whipped the beat like some porridge

I quit recording with the vocals distorted

I swore on life Growth was gorgeous

But your reaction only made me discouraged

Shit got me devastated

I put my pen to my pad

People say that I'll never make it

I've been dreaming too many dreams

I guess it's time to wake up

I ain't never been hated on

Ain't got enough credentials

Better put your brain to the pencil and draw you a picture

Now you're living without a stencil

Cause there ain't shit given

And ain't shit written in your story

Got to make a living

Get in the system and make em listen

Make em pay attention

Better get your ass on a stage and get your recognition

Let everybody know the Sage has got a pot to piss in

And when they hear ya make them wonder

"How the hell we miss him?"

He kept talking about his dreams, so we just had to diss him

Man when he's gone we'll miss him

But I've got a lot to learn before I get to that level

And I've realized that I'm standing toe to toe with the devil

And I know this is a Long Cold Journey to shuttle

But when I finally make it there will be no more rebuttal

And no more shit to shovel

But yo the struggle is hard

I put my life in these measures for y'all to go and judge the bars

That's just opening scars

And realize that this life is hard, but it's all that want

I've been counting my tarot cards and I'm all down to one

I'm all out of luck and all out of fun

And since Imma plan for the future

Keep my eyes on the sun

No surprise when I'm done, but I will shed my eyes If I'm on

Never mixing lies in my songs

So I'll never hit number one

And I know I'm not good enough

I'm just trying to be versatile

Putting everything I've got into these verses now

So imma let you hold me low 'til I can hold it down

Cause I was born to be the king

I'm fixed to grow into the crown

But now I'm starting where the lords can't see

Where the homeless can't eat

And where the peasants can't sleep

Dreaming big about a world where the change on me

Too far from where I want to be

Man shit get deep

[Chorus]

You wanna go deep, I'll take you deep
