Shock, I can't cry
Pop, I need some space
No, this isn't me
Go, please let me breathe
I'll be back sooner than you know
I need this space just like you need it
Wait, did you hear that? Shh
Hear my heart beat? Shh
I need this relief, whoa yeah, I really need this
Wow, I've been blind
I hope I'll be fine
Don't hold me back, no
Yes, I see light
Now, it's so bright
Call my name, I'll be me soon
I need this space just like you need it
I need this time, time to clear up my mind
Wait, did you hear that? Shh
Hear my heart beat? Shh

To know I could come back home
To breathe, breathe, breathe

The song "This One" by j.Davey Pacific Division Diz Gibran & Bleu Collar is a song about needing personal space and time alone to clear one's mind. The lyrics depict someone who is feeling suffocated, unable to cry or express themselves, and needs space to breathe. This person asserts their need for personal space, but also acknowledges the potential impact that their need may have on those around them, encouraging them not to give up on them. Ultimately, the song is a reminder that taking care of oneself and acknowledging one's own needs is important, even if it may initially cause discomfort to those around them.
The use of repetition throughout the song, particularly in the phrase "wait, did you hear that?" and the refrain of "I need this," emphasizes the importance of the singer's desire for space and relief, creating a sense of urgency and intensity. The use of the hushed "shh" further emphasizes the singer's need for quiet and calm.
Overall, "This One" is a deeply introspective song about the importance of prioritizing one's own needs, even if it causes discomfort to those around them. It is a reminder that sometimes the most loving thing we can do for ourselves and others is to acknowledge our limitations and take the time we need to care for ourselves.

Pure fire! These tapes put me on to the realness when ish was peak wack. Cormega and LB straight wylin. Skyzoo 👌. Floyd blends. Jean grae 😍.
@Ty1Brown2Studioz3
This is such a classic tape . All of em are , the fourth tape i wasn’t a fan of . Volume 3 was the last of the decent ones . Just my opinion
@AlienRenegadeVideos
The fourth one wasn't a Hip-Hop Docktrine tape. It was a completely unrelated tape commissioned by Adult Swim that focused a lot on local Atlanta talent. That's why that one was different from these ones. I actually liked it. Different, but still fit the Boondocks vibes.
@Ty1Brown2Studioz3
Alien.Renegade Videos hey i stand corrected , but what i will say is , the first three just had that original Boondocks feel to them (in my opinion) , although i did like some cuts from the 4th tape ..
@trynchlyfetwyn
Yep and 5 is ok too if you haven't heard it yet 4 was crap completely
