about

-Character realizes their dire situation. Is desperation their only option?
-One of the first tracks I ever produced, the lyrics predate my first appearance as Humbly G.
-One of my first attempts to rap to be put down on paper.

lyrics

Oooh, my head
What is
Wait
Where am I..?
No
Noooo, no no no no..
No shore?
In any direction
I’m lost at sea?!
Are you ****ing kidding me
Sh**
What do I do?
Where should I go?
Why am I even here
I know, I know, I-
I’ll just start paddling
And I’ll find shore in no time,
No time at all
…please, please…
Ooooooo
Somebody help me

I’m Paddlin, I’m paddling,
I’m Paddling, no shore in sight
I’m Paddlin, (row, row your boat) I’m paddling, (row, row your boat)
I’m Paddling, no shore in sight

How’d I even get here?
My memory’s all unclear,
I’m afraid that I don’t know
What most, my boat and I should fear
Why does it all feel so surreal,
With life and death warring right before me
And no memories behind me,
Of course, lost at sea
Would be the icing
There’s no hope, I’m losing my soul folks,
There’s nobody here to listen,
Nobody even knows,
This ain’t no joke, I’mma row this boat
Till I can't feel my own toes,
I’ll be damned if I die
Before I get to know me,
The sun is my guide,
It blinds, it slowly roasts me
Think about anything but my lack of cover
Like just trying to put one hand in front of the other

I’m Paddlin, I’m paddling,
I’m Paddling, no shore in sight
I’m Paddlin, (row, row your boat) I’m paddling, (row, row your boat)
I’m Paddling, no shore in sight

It’s been a couple days, a couple nights
Still no shore, no nothing in sight
Ohh my luck,
Ohh my life
My body says give up,
I don’t know whats right
Every direction feels wrong
Days become nights
On the long haul, I can hardly handle the fights
I follow what I got, my gut, my own inner light
I still fumble but, I won’t sit here idly waiting
For life to leave me, please believe me
As I looked to the horizons
I fall from my knees, barely breathing
What lay ahead, it wasn’t any shore
Instead, it was miles and miles of coming storm, well
I had nothing to go back to,
So I guess it’s next chapter
To thunderous voices, the sky a nightmare of black
Somehow accepting this, helped me move past
I said fuck the storm, I got this
No looking back

I’m Paddlin, I’m paddling,
I’m Paddling, no shore in sight
I’m Paddlin, (row, row your boat) I’m paddling, (row, row your boat)
I’m Paddling, no shore in sight

That’s a really big storm…
[sigh]
