Don't Hold Your Breath - JT Music

After the crash landin' left me stranded

On an abandoned oceanic planet

I said to myself, ain’t gonna hold my breath

Waitin' around for death, now that my flag is planted

Add the fact my vessel has been damaged

I’ve never been the handiest mechanic

I’d better gather scrap and get to scannin'

Loss of oxygen?

Try not to panic!

Transmit an emergency rescue message

I suspect nobody will ever get it

Guess I’ll get this habitat expandin'

Call me Aqua-man, I’ll make Atlantis

My legacy will be Titanic

Except James Cameron ain’t directin'

Remember the end, when Jack did jackshit?

Forget that shit, I’m callin' action

Now drop — into the depths

An immeasurable endless dimension

This isn’t war, but I’ll stick to the trenches

Intelligence is your deadliest weapon

Never fathomed all the fathoms

That this sea’s eclectic life inhabits

Better have your wits about you

Don’t neglect your stasis rifle practice

Yeah, ever since I’ve descended

I’ve been breathless, pun-intended

That might be a side effect of rappin' so fast

Cuz I’m getting rather lightheaded

I’m knockin' objectives off my checklist

Found a couple pods left in the wreckage

Everybody else already met their death

Rest In Peace, at least a blueprint’s collected

Can you sense any sentient presence?

Who left these ancient tech advances?

Could they have vanished when I landed?

Will my questions ever be answered?

Potential threat — make an assessment

I am gonna bet it’s aggressive

My energy levels are precious

I’m not in my element, I feel defenseless

There is no one left

In these ocean depths

You’re at your own behest

So don’t hold your breath

Headfirst I’ll be divin' in

I’m makin' tidal waves like a leviathan

Apex predator — you bet I am him

Top of the food chain is where I will sit

Got an appetite for any kind of fish

Cured peeper’s quite an energizing dish

Add a Chinese potato on the side with it

Even Gordon Ramsey might say «I'm impressed»

I collect metal, magnetite, and lead

Copper, quartz, and any diamond I can get

Save the gilder, batteries are dyin' man

Unless you really like to swim

Biters bite me, stalker right behind me

Every mesmer is tryin' to mesmerize me

I guess they like me, but I can’t blame 'em

I’m giving off vibes like radiation

Don’t you forget about hydration

Need water bottle?

Fabricate one

Get your hands on a bladder-fish

I’ve never seen creatures as abstract as this

What’s that?

Half a crab and half a squid?

Shocked that I haven’t seen a kraken yet

But I’d believe if that exists

Dragons are known to roam these magma pits

Water pressure getting heavy

Power cells about to be empty

I love my Cyclops, but it won’t protect me

Not from the enemies that I have seen

I just saw JAWS — didn’t affect me

At least not till I was in neck-deep

I’ll freak out if I see another damn leech

You can’t breath down here, but you can scream

There is no one left

In these ocean depths

You’re at your own behest

So don’t hold your breath

There is no one left

In these ocean depths

You’re at your own behest

So don’t hold your breath

Echoes of beasts surround me

But I won’t abandon the mission

Loneliness feels like drowning

I’m slowly losing my vision

Keep going deeper leave sunlight behind

The sea has me reeling, my life’s on the line

Heart beating, I’m breathing then I’m still alive

So take one more dive

There is no one left

In these ocean depths

You’re at your own behest

So don’t hold your breath

There is no one left

In these ocean depths

You’re at your own behest

So don’t hold your breath
