Dive Into The Mellow
Hunnid-P Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dive Into The Mellow
Everybody, flow with me
This is yo' boy, Knuckles
And this is Aquatic Mine
C'mon, y'all

Let's take a dive in Aquatic Mine
Once was a coal pit, but now it's a water ride
Makes you wanna sit back, enjoy the life
And do the things you like doin', get to shine
It sure beats fightin' with the foes all the time
But I gotta do it, they always stay out o' line
Sometimes I wanna just chill and lamp
But I'm the protector of the Emeralds and Gems

I stay knuckled-up, I'm in a deep cut
I'm seein' skulls that burn, they tryin' to cut me off
Avoidin' my luck, I'm feelin' kind o' stuck
I'm in narrow hallways, runnin' like it's a ball game
Hand tracks be trackin' me to different doorways
In a maze, and I don't know what to do
Guaranteed, though, I'm'a find the Emeralds
Don't call me Knuckles for nothin', I can't lose

Sure beats fightin' with the foes all the time
But I gotta do it, they always stay out o' line
Sometimes I wanna just chill and lamp
But I'm the protector of the Emeralds and Gems
Stay knuckled-up, in a deep cut
I'm seein' skulls that burn, they tryin' to throw me off




Avoidin' my luck, I'm feelin' kind o' stuck
Don't call me Knuckles, give me the bucks

Let's take a dive, in Aquatic Mine, 
Once was a coal pit, but now it's a water ride, 
Makes you wanna sit back, enjoy your life, 
And do things you like doing, get to shine. 
It sure beats fighting with the foes all the time, 
But I gotta do it, they always stay out of line, 
Sometimes I wanna just chill and land, 
But I'm the protector of the Emeralds and gems. 
Staying up a duct, I'm in a deep cut, 
I'm seeing skulls that burn, they trying to cut me off, 
Avoiding my luck, I'm feeling kinda stuck, 
I'm in narrow hallways running like it's a ballgame. 
Hand track, beat track, all lead to different hallways, 
In a maze, and I don't know what to do, 
Guaranteed though, Imm'l find the Emeralds, 
They don't call me Knuckles for nothing, I can't lose.

Love how they added static noise behind his vocals. You'd think static would ruin vocals but it blends nice

@TanorFauxofOltanis

Mm, I always liked how calming Knuckles' stages are. Perfect emerald hunting music~.

@Schnort

Perfect being here for one hour music....

@morsoe1
