His signature introspective style shines through, exploring themes of self-reflection and perseverance.
The production, crafted by Chance’s trusted collaborators, seamlessly complements the dark and contemplative atmosphere of the track. “Buried Alive” marks the exciting first chapter in the rollout for “Star Line Gallery,” and with new singles and visuals promised in the coming months, fans can expect a truly immersive musical experience from Chance the Rapper.
Quotable Lyrics:
Then they threw the dirt on the casket
And into the hunt for the baby and the basket
Nobody Moses, alone with the mallet
That’s when the pen turned the stone to a tablet
Jailbreak stylus, I chiseled like Shawshank
I fought for my life, Ray Gibson, Claude Banks
