|
Look... it's six o'clock I'm hopping outta the bed |
|
Rain fallin calling X but my phone lines dead |
|
I guess my bills ain't paid |
|
No ride to work for the day |
|
Second option: |
|
Hop the bus but there's a traffic delay |
|
My boss is trippin cause I'm running late and ain't no excuse |
|
When I'm bout to be 22 without a whip I could swoop |
|
Feel like I'm finna shoot my own dome with chrome to escape |
|
Zoning out cause working working out ain't worth what I make |
|
My lady calling bargain always fussing just because we ain't ballin |
|
But it's hard cause her cousins ******* rich, cause her hu*******and's hustling |
|
And I ain't ******* touching nothing but a mic |
|
5 o'clock and off work ready to go home and write |
|
But I ain't got a buck to catch the bus chilling at the stop |
|
Rain fallin hard as ever and it's soakin my socks |
|
******* it |
|
Kick my kicks off and took off my jacket |
|
Roll my jeans up beat up and my headphones blasting |
|
Blazed some ******* up and started laughing |
|
While I'm spla*******n in puddles like |
|
Mutha******* a struggle we dancin in the rain |
|
|
|
[Hook] |
|
Dont nobody wanna dance slow in the rain |
|
Just move yo ass. . . jus move yo ass |
|
Dont nobody wanna liberate the weight of the pain |
|
Just move yo ass. . . jus move yo ass |
|
|
|
[Verse 2] |
|
Sometimes I hate taking trips to the lab |
|
Got my pen and pad booking instrumentals in smash |
|
Catch the bus regardless |
|
Trying hard to be an artist |
|
But my A&R be calling me out my zone into his office |
|
Being cautious cause he don't want my record to brick |
|
Asking me how he think my projects progressing and *******t |
|
I said cool, but the truth is that I'm stressing to grip |
|
Cause it's hard to make music when this depression exists |
|
They say use it as inspiration & the best of 'em did |
|
Well that's them, see that I can't handle this pressure for *******t |
|
And if you ask me stress is a bitich |
|
My girl needs more attention and my record label's desperate for hits |
|
Now I'm pissed cause I'm getting out the zone again |
|
Makes me start to dread when I see a microphone and *******t |
|
It ain't supposed to be like that |
|
I said ill be right back |
|
I left the office got a phone and called my partner Jack |
|
And I asked him "remind me why I'm rappin" |
|
And right before he answered I remembered my passion in the past |
|
When I was scribbling in my tablet |
|
To box out my mom and dad scrappin |
|
To help me when my granmother passed |
|
Plus the many times I was homeless |
|
And the times when I was broke |
|
And the music made a way when I was hopless |
|
He told me to remember the rain it'll diminish the pain |
|
And he told me not to ask him again cause I know |
|
|
|
*Chorus x2* |
|
|
|
Dont nobody wanna liberate the weight of the pain |
|
Just move yo ass. . . jus move yo ass |
|
Dont nobody wanna X3 |
|
Dance -- slow -- in -- the -- rain |
