No (On Top)

(album: Lamp City - 2013)

I used to think that I was destined to be on top but now I know it's true
While everybody else flopped I was waiting to drop and talk shit bout you
I used to have a lot of stress thinking bout my life and where it was heading to
But now I'm saying "fuck that I'mma be alright" guess what you will too

I used to be one of the kids that would over think, I never had no shows
I just to act like it was cool when really I was bugging about it on the low
I used to do a lot of singing making some beats and yeah I still do both
I used to give a fuck about you and then I deleted your number on my phone
Not even on some Hollywood shit I'm fucked up and I play this girls
I do this shit to boost my ego don't really talk about it on the low
And if I'm really being honest I'd just lie said I was on the road
But I ain't never been on tour man this is just something that you should know

I used to think that I was destined to be on top but now I know it's true
While everybody else flopped I was waiting to drop and talk shit bout you
I used to have a lot of stress thinking bout my life and where it was heading to
But now I'm saying "fuck that I'mma be alright" guess what you will too

I love the way that life has a particular way of working out
I'm sitting thinking bout all the decisions I made back when I was just a dumb fool
And now I know more so I can act upon my actions more appropriate so you won't walk out the door
I hear the words you say to me like slow piano loops
Sits inside my head throughout the day until I think oh shoot
I wasted another day doing nothing, no motivation
Wrapped inside depressions that you put me in after we stopped having sex and
To add on top of that I got stressed out with music shit
Starting writing songs that I didn't even like to spit
But fuck that shit, I guess one day I'll finally find my sound
And leave my mark upon this lonely blood sucking underground
I worked so hard for this and thought it was all useless
So I had to ask myself why it is I really do this
I have dreams of buying a house finding a wife and a family
I wanna be around for my kids so they can see their dad and be like
"yeah that shit's awesome", so how do I accomplish that
It's not with major labels fucking me until I got no ass
So I'll just keep it real, try to relax a bit
Until all my stars align and I ain't worried bout shit

I used to think that I was destined to be on top but now I know it's true
While everybody else flopped I was waiting to drop and talk shit bout you
I used to have a lot of stress thinking bout my life and where it was heading to
But now I'm saying "fuck that I'mma be alright" guess what you will too

I used to think that I was destined to be on top but now I know it's true
While everybody else flopped I was waiting to drop and talk shit bout you
I used to have a lot of stress thinking bout my life and where it was heading to
But now I'm saying "fuck that I'mma be alright" guess what you will too
