#PAID MY DUES - NF
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
tick, tick, tick, that's the sound before my head explodes
Quit, quit, quit, look at you up on your pedestals
quick, quick, quick, here the critics come, it's time to go
I, read your article it kinda hurt me
I don't know who hired you or what your friends say in your circle
But the fact that you released it, tells me two things are for certain
You get paid for trashin people, i get payed cuz I stay working
drop The Search and they emerge up out of nowhere to the surface
Just to peek behind the curtain, throwin' salt at all my burdens
I'm aware I shouldn't give this my attention, life's a journey
I should just stay on my path and learn to laugh, you think they heard me?
ears are burnin, put em out, quiet, quiet, look around
Why dont they find someone way more interesting to write about
Us we're kinda boring, aren't we?
All we do is whine and pout
it's confusing, so amusing, how i argue with myself
(Hello)
I spit it with ease, so leave it to me
Doubt it but you better believe
I'm on a rampage, hit em with the record release
Depending the wesk
, I'm prolly gonna have to achieve
Another goal 🔥
, let me go when I'm over the beat
I go in to "Beast Mode" when im ready to feast
I'm fed up with these thieves, tryna get me to bleed
They wanna see me take an L (yeah), see what I mean?
How many records I gotta give you to get with the program?
take it for granted, I'm bout to give you the whole plan
Open up the mind and look at the blueprint
debate if you gotta, but gotta hold it with both hands
To pick up the bars, you gotta be smart
You really gotta dig in your heart
If you wanna get to the root of an issue
Pursuing the mental can be dark and be difficult.
But the payoff at the end of it, can help you to get through it, hey!
Paid my dues, made it through! (Woo woo woo)
Spread the news, I'm on the loose! (woo woo woo)
Making moves, I need some room! (Woo woo woo)
Thought we's cool, well don't assume, don't assume hey!
I’m the truth, oh they want some proof?
Here don't be rude
Something new.
even when I lose, I make it look cool
Do the show, then we hit the room
Wife is looking oh, what to do
I don't need the shades up, I like the view
It's time to get back in the swing of things
when my life crashes, I'm not the guy that'll flee the scene
I'll take ownership and own it and raise my hand if it's me
Just remember tho, I’m only a man, I’m a human being.
Don't they see? Shoot the breeze
I’d rather just stay discreet
people claim their in your corner but leave you in times of need
They don’t listen do they? (What?)
They don't listen to anything
I'll accept advice if it's not presented ignorantly
Look
Costs are high
they multiply
They cause divides
I'm forced to fight
The poison I’ve been sipping on has quite the bite.
It killed me twice, they rigged the lights
So yall can see the parts of mine that aren’t so bright.
see often i apologize
Then authorize
The awful times
To pop up (Nate)
Like I'm right behind you
I’d advise not to try to climb inside the mind like I do
keep the rhyme book
Expedite it.
overnight it
Hold it tight and hope the time is on my side.
cause if it's not then I'll decide to override my own demise
I toe the line too close and I could improvise, I'd empathize
The fact that i could jeopardize and wreck our lives
You better give me your attention the undivided!
Paid my dues!
made it through!
(Whoo whoo whoo!)
Spread the news!
I’m on the loose!
WOO WOO WOO
Making moves!
I need some room!
(Whoo whoo whoo!)
thought we's cool
Well don’t assume, don’t assume! (Ay!)
paid my dues
Made it through!
WOO WOO WOO
Spread the news!
I'm on the loose!
(Whoo whoo whoo!)
making moves!
I need some room!
WHOO WHOO WHOO
Thought we’s cool.
Well don't assume
Don’t assume, hey!
