Lyrics
Drop
Got it raw
Keep on navigating
Verse 1
Sharp signals snapping
Brain circuits spinning out of control
Wide awake now
Feeling every pulse through my bones
Pre-Chorus
It shouts my name
It takes the blame
It calls for more
Chorus
A voice so raw
Voice so raw
A voice so raw
Navigate
Bridge
Look
Now it starts to stutter and it flickers in the dark
It’s a spark, it’s a dog with a bite not a bark
And it lives in the cellar where the wiring is frayed
Counting every single debt that has never been paid
I’m a vessel for the frequency, a passenger in line
Got the passenger a seat and now he thinks he’s doing fine
Running red on every light, pushing ninety in a school zone
Tryna find a frequency where I can finally feel home
But it’s jagged and it’s hollow and it’s breathing on my neck
While I’m frantically trying to avoid a total wreck
Keep navigating
Verse 5
One two, what’s the move
Tryna find a rhythm but I’m slipping out the groove
And the rawest part is knowing that the navigator’s lying
He’s pointing to the summit while the engines started frying
Scream it louder, let it boil, let it spill across the floor
Because once the valve is open I can’t close it anymore
Is it me? Is it him? Is it just a chemistry
Turning every piece of silence into noisy memory?
Raw
(Navigating)
Drop
Got it raw
Keep on navigating
N-N-N-Navigating
R-R-Raw
Outro
Got a voice
Got a voice and it’s screaming at the wall
Standing at the ledge just to see if I can fall
Navigating chaos till I’m running out of breath
Raw, raw
Interlude
Wait, wait
Stop the track for a second
I think it’s finally quiet
But quiet is just the noise waiting to happen, innit?
Verse 6
Back in the lab with the ghosts in the machine
Mapping out a path that no eye has ever seen
See the walls start to bend and the floor starts to sway
But I'm holding onto logic while it tries to slip away
No compass, no map, just a gut feeling's hollow
Into the abyss where the brave fear to follow
And it's raw, it's visceral, it's pulling at the seams
Of the little white lies and the tattered paper dreams
Staring at the sun till my vision goes blurred
Searching for a meaning in a single spoken word
I am the ocean and I'm also the shore
And the voice in the middle just keeps asking for more
Outro
I'm still navigating
Through the static
Through the strain
Raw nerve
Raw pain
(Navigate)
(Keep it raw)
One last step into the grey
Until the navigator fades away
Fades away
Fades away
(Silence)
