Nobodys Listening
Coming at ya..
Yo peep the style and the kids checking for it
The number one question is
How could you ignore it
We drop right back in the cut
Over basement tracks
With raps that got you backing this up like
[Rewind That]
Were just rolling with the rhythm
Rise from the ashes of stylistic division
With these non-stop lyrics of life living
Not to be forgotten
But still unforgiven
But in the meantime there are those who wanna
Talk this and that/so I suppose that
It gets to a point where feelings gotta get hurt
And get dirty with the people spreading the dirt
[It goes]
Try to give you warning
But everyone ignores me
[Told you everything loud and clear]
But nobodys listening
Call to you so clearly
But you dont want to hear me v
[Told you everything loud and clear]
But nobodys listening
I got a
Heart full of pain/head full of stress
Handful of anger/held in my chest
And everything left is a waste of time
I hate my rhymes
[But hate everyone elses more]
Im riding on the back of this pressure
Guessing that its better
I cant keep myself together
Because of all this stress
Gave me something to write on
The pain gave me something
I could set my sights on
You never forget the blood sweat and tears
The uphill struggle over years
The fear and trash talking
And the people it was to
And the people that started it
Just like you
Try to give you warning
But everyone ignores me
[Told you everything loud and clear]
But nobodys listening
Call to you so clearly
But you dont want to hear me
[Told you everything loud and clear]
But nobodys listening
I got a
Heart full of pain/head full of stress
Handful of anger/held in my chest
Uphill struggle/blood, sweat and tears
Nothing to gain/everything to fear
Heart full of pain/head full of stress
Handful of anger/held in my chest
Uphill struggle/blood, sweat and tears
Nothing to gain/everything to fear
Heart full of pain..
Try to give you warning
But everyone ignores me
[Told you everything loud and clear]
But nobodys listening
Call to you so clearly
But you dont want to hear me
[Told you everything loud and clear]
But nobodys listening
Ive got Heart full of pain
Head full of stress
Nobodys listening
Handful of anger
Held in my chest
Nobodys listening
Uphill struggle
Blood, sweat and tears
Nobodys listening
Nothing to gain
Everything to fear
Nobodys listening
[Coming at you]
It's going down
Watch them flee
Watch them flee
Rap upv
Watch them flee
Hip-Hop hits
And you do it like this
It's going down (It's going down)
It's going down (It's going down)
It's going down (It's going down)
It's going down
The rhythm projects 'round the next sound
Reflects the complex hybrid dialect now
Detect the mesh of many elements compressed down
The melting pot of a super-future X-style
The combination of a vocal caress
With lungs that gasp for breath
From emotional stress
With special effects
And a distorted collage
Carefully lodged between beats of rhythmic barrage
It's going down
The logical progression on a timeline
The separation narrowed down to a fine line
To blur the edges so they blend together properly
Take you on an audible odyssey
Now it's going down
A logical progression on the timeline
The separation narrowed down to a fine line
To blur the edges so they blend together properly
Take you on an audible odyssey
Now it's going down
It's going down
For the world to see, yes
Me and the X-men to the 10th degree
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record graves
It's going down
For the world to see, yes
Me and the X-men to the 10th degree
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record graves
Put put it up
It said it go- go- goes like this
And you do it like this
Its going downv
Once again it is
Composed sentences all together venomous
The four elements of natural force
Projected daily through the sound of the source
Everybody on board with this blend
The sword with the pen
The mightiest of the weapons
Swinging right from the chin
The elevate of mental states
Long gone with the wind
To defend men for shoddy imitation pretends
It's going down
Stance emulation readily
Trekking through the weaponry
Of the pure pedigree
Cleverly seeing through whatever is ahead of me
Whatever the weather be
We invent the steadily
It's going down to sub-terrestrial high
I rhyme regiment that's calling the shots
Execution of collaborative plots
Ready to bring the separation of style to a stop
It's going down
A logical progression on a timeline
The separation narrowed down to a fine line
To blur the edges so they blend together properly
Take you on an audible odyssey
Now, it's going down
It's going down
For the world to see, yes
Me and the X-men to the 10th degree
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record graves
It's going down
For the world to see, yes
Me and the X-men to the 10th degree
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record graves
X-men 'bout to blast off world wide
X- men 'bout to blast off world wide
And you do it like this
X- men 'bout to blast off world wide
It's going down
For the world to see, yes
Me and the X-men to the 10th degree
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record graves
It's going down
For the world to see, yes
Me and the X-men to the 10th degree
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record graves
It's going down (It's going down)
It's going down (It's going down)
It's going down (It's going down)
It's going down
It's going down
Put put put it up
It said it goes like this
And you do it like this
It's going down
Put put it up
It said it goes like this
And you do it like this
It's going down
Like this...
Numb
Im tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless
Lost under the surface
I dont know what youre expecting of me
Put under the pressure
Of walking in your shoes
[Caught in the undertow
Just caught in the undertow]
Every step that I take is
Another mistake to you
[Caught in the undertow
Just caught in the undertow]
Ive
Become so numb
I cant feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
Im becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
Cant you see that youre smothering me
Holding too tightly
Afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
[Caught in the undertow
Just caught in the undertow]
Every step that I take is
Another mistake to you
[Caught in the undertow
Just caught in the undertow]
And every second I waste
Is more then I can take
Ive
Become so numb
I cant feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
Im becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me
With someone disappointed in you
Ive
Become so numb
I cant feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
Im becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
Ive
Become so numb
I cant feel you there
Tired of being what you want me to be
Ive
Become so numb
I cant feel you there
Tired of being what you want me to be
Numb/Encore
Yeah
Thank you, thank you, thank you, youre far too kind
Wooooo! Ha! Uh! Woo! Ready? Woo! Woo! Woo!
Lets go
Now can I get an encore, do you want more?
Cookin raw with the Brooklyn boy
So for one last time I need yall to roar
Now what the hell are you waiting for?
After me, there shall be no more
So for one last time nigga make some noise
Get em Jay
Who you know fresher than Hov? Riddle me that
The rest of yall know where Im lyrically at
Cant none of yall mirror me back
Yeah hearin me rap is like hearin G rap in his prime
Im, young H.O. raps grateful dead
Back to take over the globe, now break bread
Im in, Boeing jets, Global Express
Out the country but the blueberry still connect
On the low but the yacht got a triple deck
But when you young, what the fuck you expect? Yep, yep
Grand openin, grand closin
God your man Hov cracked the can open again
Who you gon find doper than him with no pen
just draw off inspiration (-tion)
Soon you gon see you cant replace him (him)
with cheap imitations for these generations
Now can I get an encore, do you want more?
Cookin raw with the Brooklyn boy
So for one last time I need yall to roar (roar, roar)
Now what the hell are you waiting for?
After me, there shall be no more
So for one last time nigga make some noise
What the hell are you waiting for?
Look what you made me do, look what I made for you
Knew if I paid my dues, how will they pay you
When you first come in the game, they try to play you
Then you drop a couple of hits, look how they wave to you
From Marcy to Madison Square
To the only thing that matters in just a matter of years (yea)
As fate would have it, Jays status appears
to be at an all-time high, perfect time to say goodbye
When I come back like Jordan, wearin the 4-5
It aint to play games witchu
Its to aim at you, probably maim youv
If I owe you Im blowin you to smithereens
Cocksucker take one for your team
And I need you to remember one thing (one thing)
I came, I saw, I conquered
From record sales, to sold out concerts
So muhfucker if you want this encore
I need you to scream, til your lungs get sore
Im tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Dont know what youre expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Ive become so numb I cant feel you there
Ive become so tired so much more aware
Im becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
Ive become so numb
Now can I get an encore, do you want more?
Ive become so numb
So for one last time I need yall to roar
One last time I need yall to roar
