BUILDING BLUEPRINT
Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
flip-flops.
- //verse 1 (0:38) //
- [okay, imma just kick off here like flip flops ](you kick off your flipflops on the beach or sth idk, also kicking off the verse lmao)
- [the wall or the bar, whatever i can lean on so they give me props ](in swimming, you have to learn how to kick off the wall. also on roblox there's this game called kick off and it's like about football/soccer, it's really fun ngl, so goalpost bar. also leaning on my bars like im depending on them for props? yeah whatever idk anm. also props can mean both theatre props {like things for me to work with} and rappad props, so yea)
- [in the night, i can't score, i light the day like coal from j ](here's where the flipping begins. light the day/daylyt, coal from j/j cole. also you use coal to light a torch, so to create light like a mini sun, or day, so light from day)
- [in caves or something, i think it's rumbling like crusoe, get away ](you get coal from the caves, duh. also in chapter 7 of robinson crusoe the cave he was in caved in)
- //(0:49)
- [collard greens i eat on my plate, feeding my inner ape ](daylyt and j cole made a plate of collard greens, duhhhh)
- [you reading and think i'm lit? i admit, this just my vomit, mate ](lit as in like peak, but also the past tense of light, tying back into torch)
- i guess i'm like a grenade, creating a detonation of vape smoke parade
- my words chafe the haters' ears, cause i'm instigating their fears of not being enough
- //(1:00)//
- you really thinking you tough? puffing smoke and sloppy crip walking like you came from the rough
- i'm a true diamond in the rough, you was never up to snuff
- perhaps it's hard to accept a thirteen year old can do it better than you
- yeah, i'm more clever, it's true, open to bending the rules
- //(1:11)//
- forever defending the truth, repenting is not an excuse
- to continue to sin like it's nothing, cause god behooves you
- to turn away when you repent, [when temptation rings, hit the snooze ](you know, ring like an alarm clock, hit the snooze?)
- he's waiting for you to refute the world and turn to him, yeah that's truth
- //verse 2 (1:27) //
- imagery is not necessarily my forte, to demo vividly
- temperamentally unable to wait and make sorbet
- no, i don't portray myself as god in any way
- i'm just a follower, man, i do whatever the heck he say
- [the heat wave at my face, burning as i wave back like the sun did it ](heatwave/heat wave, so i wave back? idk man this bar trash n corny)
- it's so vivid, when it hit, it hit different
- [okay, what the hell am i saying at this point? i don't know ](hell is hot, tying back into the heatwave)
- [i thought i was relaxing under the sun, letting the cold breeze flow ](we back to the beach thing, sunbathing)
- [i mean, hopefully so, hope this don't turn into some crap on yap pad ](the term yappad's been thrown around often by some people to refer to like how washed rappad has become with disses and ai slop. i'm saying here that i don't want the track to be slop)
- [cause there's no pros and a con for that happening, so let me smack that ](a con/akon, then smack that was a song of his? omds i hate my bars already)
- okay, this rap's turned trash, i'll leave it until i can properly snap back
- 'cause the wackness ought to be an anomaly, since i constantly pump out hits
- the quality is falling, at some point i'll lose the popularity lottery
- [this simply the cause of the robbery of clarity and greatness, really bothers me ](average imposter syndrome moment)
