Take the Dive - JT Music

Even if we go below zero

Will you ever see cold feet on me?

No

Feel the sea breeze in the knee-deep snow

Crank up the heat because we’re gonna need more

Haven’t had a carb in a few weeks

And meat is the only thing that I really eat so

Didn’t mean to but it would seem I’m on keto

Metabolic rate reaching a peak, whoa

I’m a fan of animals, they’re sweet, so

I’ll feed on a peeper if he’s slow

Keep it moving, a human torpedo

Sick of flipper, I wanna pick up my speed, go

Least if I freeze I’m not gonna freeze slow

When you’re in deep, if you gotta breathe, don’t

Snatch up a tablet, see if I can decode

Gotta wonder what secrets these hold

Ancient alien bases with the green glow

I can hear someone beckon me and he knows

Who I am, what contaminant in the seafoam?

Now I feel like ET, why did I leave home?

Can anybody show me to the phone?

Looking for my team, anyone seen?

Nope

Hope they didn’t dig up another disease, so

PDA, activate emergency mode

Doesn’t mean I need to be quarantined, though

At least I don’t think so

How long can I keep up this rhyme scheme for?

Till I get a jacket or even a cheap coat

No wonder the planet’s devoid of people

In need of resources, dangerously low

Feels like the ice age got a sequel

But it ain’t the water chilling me to the bone

Why wait around?

I’ve found that taking the dive

Gives you more of a rush than simply drifting with the tide

If your heart should slow, and your blood run cold

Take another look inside

You might be surprised to find somebody

Who’s longing to take the dive

Take the dive

Take the dive

I don’t wanna dwell on the past

But it’s a fact that I was the captain of my swim team

Sprinted a 50 free split in twenty-three seconds

When I was seventeen

So when I’m up shit’s creek, I don’t even need an oar

To paddle through the battle and seize the war

Stick to the trenches, what I need 'em for?

I’ll own this ocean like a sea emperor

Now I’ve all but forgot my earth days

As a kid I wanted to become a mermaid

But then I yearned to learn how to traverse space

Earned a degree then got myself versed in first aid

Was it worth the wait?

I’d sure say

And hey, if I die, I’ll be preserved, great

If a leviathan tries to get in your face

Better give him a titanic iceberg fate

Swimming in the wake of the precursors

On a mission that is takin' me further

Remember mother nature cannot be nurtured

A quick death awaits if you ain’t a quick learner

So forget a fishing rod, I got my hands

Speak fluent marine like I’m Aquaman

If I don’t keep my cool then the arctic can

Long as I’m stocked up on some oxygen

Feel like I’m walking on water

Probably because I often am

I’m a subnautical goddess, damn

If I find sentient life, can I talk to them?

Will they understand, or will they get aggressive?

With my terrestrial tech which is unimpressive

I’ll say this again, but I’ve already said it

That this planet is gonna leave me breathless

Why wait around?

I’ve found that taking the dive

Gives you more of a rush than simply drifting with the tide

If your heart should slow, and your blood run cold

Take another look inside

You might be surprised to find somebody

Who’s longing to take the dive

Take the dive

Take the dive

Takes one to know one, and I’m a survivor

When it comes to my drive, simply staying alive

Is just the tip of the iceberg

So if you take a look under the surface

Your craving for adventure serves a purpose

Why wait around?

I’ve found that taking the dive

Gives you more of a rush than simply drifting with the tide

If your heart should slow, and your blood run cold

Take another look inside

You might be surprised to find somebody

Who’s longing to take the dive

Take the dive

Take the dive
