High Tide

I got a fire in my chest, inviting minds to try ingest/
Lines that I have bind and pressed, the fight personifies my death/
With time to rise up to the mess, providing I’ve had trying tests/
Colliding grinding every step, so I have rightly yet assessed/
I’m like Noah’s Ark' Spectators floating farther from the ground/
Just trying to keep my head above water before I finally drown/
So I paddle away, wade, and pray for an eighth day/
Courage and great strength, determined to make way/
If I was a barnacle then, maybe I’d stake claim/
maybe id brake free from rocks encourage and take aim
I’ve seen traps in a distance yet I’d sin and trip over’em/
can’t react with resilience and consistently shoulder’em/
I’m chiseled in dads image, yet my vision is focused in/
Dirty mirrors that have me riddled cus my description isnt his/
Why do you insist to do this, and give me the kiss of Judas/
Or is it my own fault i still grow trees so very fruitless/

Flow was good here. The lyrics felt very personal. I can't say I understood what they all meant 100% but the gist I got was pretty deep and self reflective. Good drop over all.

I like this one. Favorite lines-
"So I paddle away, wade, and pray for an eighth day/
Courage and great strength, determined to make way"
&
"I’m chiseled in dads image, yet my vision is focused in/
Dirty mirrors that have me riddled cus my description isnt his/
Why do you insist to do this, and give me the kiss of Judas/
Or is it my own fault i still grow trees so very fruitless"

I think that you aim for abstract, so sometimes it's hard to see the big picture. Your individual abstract metaphors are great, just a little hard to connect sometimes. Overall it's dope, like a party in Citrus Heights. Except the good kind of dope.

solid lil 16, flow was flawless, structure on point, nice use of multies, couple rhymes a lil forced in some parts, but all in all some nice shit.

That was deep, I like the way it flow, keep the same strength throughout. Good drop for sure.

Thought this was def a dope verse. The flow on this was ill, the meanings were... well, meaningful. The vocab usage was well used. Enjoyed the read a lot...
