CDLS 02 2023 - Isaac app "TANGO"
I'll say it straight: I'm not one to listen to rap. But you gotta listen to this.
If you know me personally, you know I'm a Rocket League fan. It's ridiculous even for me but there's something about it that caught me and I didn't let go. But I digress. As with any sport, there's a main cast of characters for the main events – yes, video games have live events, too – and for Rocket League one of them is Isaac "Turtle" App. He's a beloved caster for the Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) and former professional player. At one point last year, during the league, he announced that one of his songs was going to be featured in the game. Wait, what? Yeah, that's how I found out that outside of Rocket League he is a producer and rapper that has a few independent releases under his wings. Then he also produced the song for Rocket League's World Championship called "Moments" and released under the monstercat label.
His newest release is called "TANGO" and is crazy good and catchy. So good, I thought you should listen to it, too. So here it goes:
Lyrics (via Musixmatch)
Dancing with devils is dangerous
I need some true intentions not plastic
It feel like every word buildin up my casket
Swim through the mentions blockin up the traffic
And I ain’t wanna talk to a fuckin actress
I can see the low standards I don’t fuck with
I can see the high manners you don’t act with
All these past matters that I’m stuck with
And the past chapters you distract with
I’m flying through phases
One second poppin the next I be anxious
I’m flying through pages
One second lonely the next full of faces
I’m flying through places
One second dancing with devils, it’s dangerous
I’m flying through phases
I’m flying through but
You know that it take two if we tango
Everybody fake too, a fake halo
Tell me how to break through, with my aim low
I might get a beach view, if I’m shallow
You know that it take two, if we tango
I’m back to my old roots, old bankroll
Imma have to run through, on my main goal
Just to get a green view, a little money flow
Go ahead and say you got my back, classic
Go ahead and say you changed, It’s been drastic
Holy water chugged down now you catholic
I find it hard to trust now and it’s tragic
Fuck the white lies you been changing sides, it gets
Hard to see where the heart resides, I know
Things change on a rising tide, and yet
I can’t say why the past ain’t die
Always looking back tryna dodge regret
Always in my head what’s left unsaid
I’m moving too fast need to take a breathe
Tell me why I can’t stop shit will be my death
I’m flying through phases
One second poppin the next I be anxious
I’m flying through pages
One second lonely the next full of faces
I’m flying through places
One second dancing with devils, it’s dangerous
I’m flying through phases
I’m flying through but
You know that it take two if we tango
Everybody fake too, a fake halo
Tell me how to break through, with my aim low
I might get a beach view, if I’m shallow
You know that it take two, if we tango
I’m back to my old roots, old bankroll
Imma have to run through, on my main goal
Just to get a green view, a little money flow
