lyrics

[Verse 1 - Ghettosocks]

I think about my
Life like I’m watching from a bird’s eye view/ and stay precise as a hawk in the words I choose/ swoop
- too smooth yo DK prepare the loop/
no plan b ya never see me in a parachute/ -incomparable- dialect of a pharaoh/
-kids try to triangulate my type of tarot/
-arrows fly off tags from the Fortune teller/
fortunately kicking more flavour than some Mortadella/
-the construct’s deep you can peep the scripture/ -well-kept secrets (shhh) seeping through the whispers/ -gifted lines permeate through lifted
designs/ - gliding like a missile in flight/ aight-
-let’s get it/ people wanna pilot the
zeppelin without the comprehension of where it’s headed/ -I understand that they want what’s ours/ but
before you’re qualified you gotta clock those hours/ cause you
gotta have the ethic if you wanna have the skills/ you
ought to have presence if you wanna make em feel/ it
pays to have patience if you wanna pay the bills/ and you’re gon be waiting for a while til it’s real- but

[Chorus]

I fly- we fly and they fly/ I
looked up and saw my reflection in the sky/ I fly- we fly and they fly/ I
looked up and saw my reflection in the sky/
I fly- we fly and they fly/ I
looked up and saw my reflection in the sky/ I fly- we fly and they fly/ I
looked up and saw my reflection/

[Verse 2]
the world is a
canvas and my music’s a brush watch how it dances/ drizzles on the map- splatters/ texture resembles architecture in the text/
injected with intellect, elegance, sex/
passport tatted up dashboard lavender/
- you know we splashing in the cashflow: add it up/ -females feedback feeling fabulous
think of all the energy you wasted being mad at us/
- attitude’s like a latitude step to the
side/ either that or come along for the ride/ and people underestimate a song full of rhymes til the words manifest into a part of their lives/
-so choose wisely- I cruise highly
above islands beyond where your eyes see/
-I understand that you want what’s ours/ but
before you’re qualified you gotta clock those hours/ cause you
gotta have the ethic if you wanna have the skills/ and you ought to have presence if you wanna make em feel/ it
pays to have patience if you wanna pay the bills/ and you’re gon be waiting for a while til it’s real- but

[Chorus 2]
I fly- we fly and they fly/ I
looked up and saw my reflection in the sky/ I fly- we fly and they fly/ I
looked up and saw my reflection in the sky/
I fly- we fly and they fly/ I
looked up and saw my reflection in the sky/ I fly- we fly and they fly/ I
looked up and saw my reflection in the sky/

about

DK New York, New York

What would the banging yet smooth beats of DJ Premier, Pete Rock, and the sonic architects of ’90s boom-bap sound like today? Nova Scotian-based producer DK has answered that question with his warm, analog-meets-digital hybrids of wistful yet modern boom-bap. ... more
