lirik lagu noonjeem - kiki (an ascension)
[intro]
i realized that a big reason i was making these songs was i really wanted to prove that i should be taken seriously as an artist, that i could sing better, produce better, write better than people think i can. and just that line of thought, made my relationship to the art quite fragile
[verse 1]
clear skies are lifting me up
with every sliver of doubt, i fall
i cannot keep up with the greats
it’s weighing me down
i wanna be king
and now
i learn from my aunties respect
first we break some bread
then they teach me life
give me a slice of their humble pie
i’m just trying my best, and waiting with baited breath
now i’ve got to make peace with the winds
simmer down until i work my way up again
[chorus]
everytime i free my mind
i find my heart the skies
(spirit)
everytime i free my mind
i find my heart ascending to the skies
[verse 2]
then came the full moon
looked to it as a sign
that it was my time to shine
quickly i packed up my beats, and my dreams, and my brains, and my charm
hoping the city folks value my art
going above and beyond only to crash and burn when i don’t get the love in return
yeah, its magic, but it’s practice
there’s no villain, only strong winds
i used to create from the heart
but now i create for applause
my aunties come through when i’m lost
say i’ve got to try less and live more
follow joy and inspiration
[chorus]
everytime i free my mind
i find my heart ascending to the skies
(spirit)
everytime i free my mind
i find my heart ascending to the skies
[interlude]
picking yourself up doesn’t always mean flying. picking yourself up means maybe stop flying. that requires bravery, to say to yourself, “okay, i’m not gonna do this, because the storm is so big i can’t fly in this storm.” stopping, not going out in that storm, could be just sitting still
[verse 3]
let’s take a long drive, to the beach side
like jilly from philly
we’ll contemplate about surah 94:5
today i am grateful for the gift of life
in passenger seat, enjoying the ride
the best song is always on the b~side
sun bright, forget about work
let’s laugh until our bellies hurt
let’s laugh until our bellies hurt, hurt, hurt
