Rap Don't Pay

打印 下载

Only lord knows
I've been looking
for direction
At the cross roads
Seen some cold nights
And warm lows
When you crying on a shoulder
That's colder than North Pole
Man of the household
An unhappy
Time to foreclose
The pain run deeper than a borehole
Tugging at my heart strings
Puppet with a long nose
And all that Jazz
Baby you know how the song goes
The flesh is very weak
But the spirit got a strong hold
And we's supposed to have it all
Well almost
Everything that glitters
Isn't all gold
I gave you my raw soul
You gave me your heart broke
Created a safe space
A place we could all grow
Even though it hurts
To have to say it
Like a sore throat
Will we ever make it
That's a question
Only Lord knows
Some Toll-roads
But I'm down for the ride
If we decide that
Our love is much
Stronger that pride
We could survive
Rap don't pay
Like a good job do
Ain't that the lies
That they tell to you
Rap don't pay
Like a good job do
Ain't that the lies
That they tell to you
Adolescents back then
I was only eighteen
I would spit an eight bar
You would never hype me
You would get you V-Dub Pimped
To impressed the boys
I would hear the neighbours
***** about the noise
I would play my new tracks
Hoping you would feel me
You grew up Disney
I grew up on Jay-Z
Now I'm the blueprint
The radio, they play me
But all I really wanted
Was for you to love me
Rap don't pay
Like a good job do
Ain't that the lies
That they tell to you
Rap don't pay
Like a good job do
Ain't that the lies
That they tell to you
