spectrum (live performance) - nyota parker lyrics
[intro]
yeah, fly away, yeah, fly away, yeah
it’s n*y*o*t*a, yeah
here we go, npr
fly away, yeah
let’s go, let’s go, yeah
[chorus]
why i never see you on your own road?
why is it when i see you, there’s no growth?
why you never focus on your own soul?
why dig for treasure when you’re your own gold?
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
why i never see you on your own road?
why is it when i see you, there’s no growth?
why you never focus on your own soul?
why dig for treasure when you’re your own gold?
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself
[verse 1]
keep your eyes somewhere they can focus
keep that fire burning where no hope is (where no hope is)
keep your rizla, i already smoked this game
i ain’t never waited for the rotation
’cause i keep it flying like a lotus (like a lotus)
you can keep on swarming like a locust
’cause you’re always aiming for the lowest range
no, your effort doesn’t go unnoticed
been up since 2 a.m., i almost broke my back
writing raps and every line i scratch
laid awake thinkin’ i wasn’t good enough for plaques (yeah)
all i ever needed to do was fall back
and shout out to oshun and when goons launch attack
well, honey, i got news and some rules to unpack
you already look like sheep and some mules when you’re ruled by the school
your molecules only molded to that
[chorus]
yeah, own road
why is it when i see you, there’s no growth?
why you never focus on your own soul?
why dig for treasure when you’re your own gold?
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself
why i never see you on your own road?
why is it when i see you, there’s no growth?
why you never focus on your own soul?
why dig for treasure when you’re your own gold?
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah, uh
[verse 2]
i know where she’s from, i know where she’s at
i don’t know where she’s going, but i know she’s coming back
tried to heal through it and align with amethyst
tried to wear it on my neck to show that l’m not sweating it
nag champa wasn’t gonna help her
just like intoxication, only made her words slur (yeah)
and just like us, she needs that self*love
and just like her, we need to not judge
we need to not smudge up reality
or benefit from systems built against our unity
or get strength from what’s crippling our community
they make us feel special, singling out impunity
yet, our immunity comes from all our scrutiny
lookin’ through the peepholes to the rich man’s soul
they try tell us how to the top, they rose
convincing you that’s the only way that it goes
but they don’t know your roots, just like a rose
they don’t want you to even come close to any of your goals
that goes against the flow or the tides of society
no wonder all our people got anxiety
n0body wants our sobriety
to them, it’s frightening
they don’t want you to believe this
they stay rockin’ you to sleep
it’s called a dream ’cause you have to be asleep to believe it
[chorus]
on your own road
why is it when i see you, there’s no growth?
why you never focus on your own soul?
why dig for treasure when you’re your own gold?
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
why i never see you on your own road?
why is it when i see you, there’s no growth?
why you never focus on your own soul?
why dig for treasure when you’re your own gold?
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
why i never see you on your own road?
why is it when i see you, there’s no growth?
why you never focus on your own soul?
why dig for treasure when you’re your own gold?
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself
you know that you always gotta pace yourself, pace yourself, pace yourself, yeah
[outro]
yeah
(yeah)
