TWO WEEKS NOTICE

(альбом: Lowercase Tape. - 2019)

[Aaron Cole:]
I can see the plan now
God, I see it all laid out
You can't keep a good man
You can't keep a good man
Mm
Epic1
Mm, mm

Walked in the label and gave 'em two weeks' notice
Yeah, looked at me back and they told me "Do stay focused
You'll take flight if it works, just go write a new verse
We gon' make it together, we are right on the verge"
No, y'all flipping my feathers, I try to fly and it hurts
Tell me change for the money, I'd rather lie in the dirt
I go popping my verse, you applauding my verse
I put God in my verse, you don't nod at my verse
I was silent at first, I would lie in my bed
I didn't get any sleep, I was all in my head (I was all in my head)
They think the only way to sell out is through cursing and sex
You could sell out screaming Jesus while securing the check
Used to chase the ticket sales, I can't do it no mo'
What good is selling out the show if you selling your soul?
But I'm still selling out the show, 'cause the fans want the real
I had to say what I feel, I had to get out the deal

Look, walked in the label and gave 'em two weeks' notice
Yeah, looked at me back and they told me "Do stay focused
You'll take flight if it works, just go write a new verse
We gon' make it together, we are right on the verge"
Okay now
We are right on the verge, we are right on the verge
We are right on the verge, we are right on the verge
We are right on the verge, we are right on the verge
We are right on the verge, we are right on the verge

[Aaron Cole:]
Yeah, yeah
I can't be a slave
Just to have my place
I must break these chains
I must run my race
I can't be a slave
Just to have my place
I must break these chains
I must run my race

[nobigdyl.:]
Yeah, walked in the label and gave his two weeks' notice
Yeah, he was impatient, I told him "Duly noted"
But communication is all we needed this time
"I mean we got you the placements, you bought the lease on my dime
And you're a beast with the rhymes," right then I gave him a smirk
"Every relationship takes some patience to make that thing work
Let's not blow this apart, you'll be your own A&R
Yeah, won't own all your music but you'll control all the art"
He was silent at first, there were lies in his head
I could tell he didn't sleep, 'cause his eyes were all red
He think I want him to sell out to put a plaque on the shelf
He don't know that if I could, I would just back him myself
So I backpedaled and told him that the fact that he's venting
Makes sense to me and we don't him to feel trapped
Our intent was to grow the brand, but in the event that we actually didn't
He should go on, be free, he told me that was his mission, yeah

[Aaron Cole:]
I can't be a slave
Just to have my place
I must break these chains
I must run my race
I can't be a slave
Just to have my place
I must break these chains
I must run my race
I can't be a slave (I feel like a man now)
Just to have my place (Ain't nothing against me now)
I must break these chains (You can't keep a good man)
I must run my race (You can't keep a good man down)
I can't be a slave (I can see the plan now)
Just to have my place (God, I see it all laid out)
I must break these chains (You can't keep a good man)
I must run my race (You can't keep a good man down)

Mm, mm, mm
