The Deep - clipping.

Our mothers were pregnant African women

Thrown overboard while crossing the Atlantic Ocean on slave ships

We were born breathing water as we did in the womb

We built our home on the sea floor, unaware of the two-legged surface dwellers

Until their world came to destroy ours

With cannons, they searched for oil beneath our cities

Their greed and recklessness forced our uprising

Tonight, we remember

Y’all remember how deep it go

Started from the bottom

Y’all remember how deep it go

'Fore y’all had to come back, deep

Y’all remember when it used to be deep

So deep, so, so deep, ayy

When y’all swim up out yo' mama while y’all mama was asleep

So deep, so, so deep, ayy

And y’all remember when y’all had the dance floor lit, dark

No two-step, deep, y’all don’t even sweat, deep

As deep as it gets

Dreaming dead asleep and keeping time

Y’all heartbeat, deep, y’all heartbeat, deep

And all the fishes had they eyes bugged out

'Cause y’all dancing underwater and y’all don’t get wet

And the dark smelled sweet and y’all tails touch reef

Y’all feed off the bottom, but now y’all remember

Y’all remember

Y’all remember

Pressure outside the vehicle: 832.2 bars

Y’all remember when the deep got hot when y’all move on up

How y’all used to argue 'bout the water getting warmer

Still y’all loved a little bit of light up in the deep

So deep, so, so deep, ayy

Y’all remember saying how it couldn’t be them two legs

'Cause y’all came from two legs

And y’all mamas would’ve loved y’all if they could’ve breathed

But they wasn’t ready for the deep

So deep, so, so deep, ayy

Y’all remember when the first blast came

And the beat fell off and the dreams got woke

And the light bent bad and the fishes belly up

And them coral castles crumbled 'cause they wasn’t quite enough

And conversation used to break like the floor quake

Like the bleached bones and the fin friends fled from they home

But the blast wouldn’t stop 'cause they wanted black gold

And them no-heels had to feel it 'cause they couldn’t be towed

Y’all remember

Y’all remember

Ocean salinity: 35 PSU.

Water pH: 7.91

Y’all remember when the raging changed that no pleas, no calm seas,

let the water rise

So deep, so, so deep

Oil slick upon the sleeper was an awful thing to realize

If the two legs wanna wake the dead

They gon' have to bring more fire, y’all is closer to the earth

So deep and y’all was talking how to get up in they heads

And got them real inspired circumstances of the birth

Has got y’all feeling like an army, better yet a navy

And they gone gave y’all the blessing now y’all going crazy

They live with green up on the surface but they ain’t deep

That pistol shrimp could knock a two leg off his feet

Y’all perfecting the steam void to rip up they ships

They using sonar as second language, y’all fluent with it

And all the dreamers is woke now, but nightmares swim

But everybody hear that «bloop"know y’all coming for them

Y’all remember

Y’all remember

Surface water temperature: 308 Kelvin

Y’all remember when the call went out, ayy

No deep, no more deep, sunshine

Y’all remember when the call went out, ayy

No deep, no more deep, sunshine

Y’all remember feeling wind up on your skin

No deep, no more deep, sunshine

Y’all remember how it burned in the beginning

No deep, ride on 'em, ride on 'em, ride on 'em

Y’all remember seeing sun across the surface

On the day that y’all first came up out the water, so, so deep

How the breaking of the surface showed the sky without a border

And the air is so much hotter, so, so deep

How the woke dreamer screamed and it rose tides

And the waves stretched up like a mountain high

And the no gills gasp and they closed eyes

And they pray to they gods and they ask why

And they all cry too 'cause y’all recognize mama

In the faces of the ones that y’all were terrorized

They were sisters and brothers, they were the babies born up out the water

Not connected to each other

Not in knowledge of the one dropped

But they had to learn today

Y’all had one shot, let the sun burn today

Let them feel the dark even deeper today

Make a two leg a believer today

Let them know that they done woke a sleeper from a sleep, so deep

That y’all been dancin' without any feet, so, so deep

Here’s the nerve that they struck with a blast

That they broke with a drill that they burnt with the gas

Y’all remember, so deep, sunshine, ride on 'em

Y’all remember, so deep, sunshine, ride on 'em

Y’all remember, so deep, sunshine, ride on 'em

Y’all remember when y’all had to let 'em breathe

Ride on 'em, ayy
