Metropolis
(专辑: Under Pressure - 2014)
Sometimes I
feel like I've drifted, I
feel different I
feel gifted I've been high so long, don't need to smoke to get lifted I've been under pressure looking for Nikki Whenever she is around, you know I
come quickly Vivid memories of Chicago, south side where I
go From Reggies to the
House of Blues, progress is the
motto Man the
first show that I
ever done sold out was in Chicago Yeah, yeah, living like I've been ready to die Maybe not, I
don't know why my mind is changing Rearranging this dangerous melody, uh Yeah, and I
know that ain't nobody finna ever be ahead of me All that competition right there is dead to me Yeah, uh, yeah, I've been turning the
pages Feeling the
vibe, shit is outrageous Boy, I've been feeling courageous This shit right here, I've been at it for ages Feels like I'm running through mazes Everybody has they phases Yeah, vibe with this, bad bitch in the
whip and I
ride to this And I'm feeling it uh, hope when I'm forty I'm still in it One of the
few that be killing it, uh Yeah, young motherfucker that be giving what he living On the
road to success so you know that I'm driven But they didn't wanna publish it But right now I'm on some other shit I'm in a
different world, I'm with a
different girl I'm with the
same team, but it's a
different scheme Remember back when I
couldn't even pay the
bills And I'll never forget how that feels back when I
would Buy it, break it, roll it, light it, smoke it, inhale it, I'm gone Buy it, break it, roll it, light it, smoke it, inhale it, I'm gone Okay, doing what I
gotta do, flying at this altitude I
look out the
window like goddamn, that's what I
really do Don't know why I
fear the
planes, sometimes I
wish to sustain If I
look back on it I
would do it all over again Nikki, Nikki, where you been? I
can't wait to breathe you in Been on this plane way too long, I
can't wait to see you again Oh my God this turbulence has got me sipping on this liquor Crazy, racist, white bitch looking at us Like, "Who are these niggas?" First class, on their ass, all complain that's when I
dash Just landed in Europe and this model bitch is tryna smash Now I'm riding on the
train, all this shit inside my brain Just left a
hotel in Belgium, damn them waffles was insane Smoking blunts in Amsterdam Oh my God, this is my jam "May-December" by Mos Def In my headphones, that's the
man I
know, I
know that I
got it if I, do what I
gotta do to get by And they wonder why I
never get high And they wonder why I
never get high I
know, I
know that I
got it if I, do what I
gotta do to get by And they wonder why I
never get high And they wonder why I
never get high Okay, fuck affiliation, I'm that dude that did it on his own These thoughts inside my mind be fucking with me when I'm all alone I
really like this girl she bad as fuck, why must I
run away? It feel like self assassination, I
can't put this gun away Goddamn, what's the
plan? Not complacent where I
am Reminiscing when I
hit the
road back in that mini van Broke as fuck, not a
dollar, whipping that Chevy Impala Praying that we make it out this city, Lord willing, Insha'Allah Up to date the
couple years, now my idols are my peers I
was on the
road to nowhere 'til I
decided to veer Put my everything into this shit, you know, I
know you know this Used to give a
fuck what people thought, hoping that they would notice Stop giving a
fuck 'cause music gotta be the
only motive Mind racing on and off the
track, I'm going locomotive [Logic (Anna):] I
can't believe you don't like Tarantino (Ugh, I
don't like him because, like—when it's non like non-Tarantino-esque, I
think it's a
good movie—) You mean like Inglourious Basterds?—(I didn't see that) What?!—(I didn't, I
don't know—) Oh my God! Have you seen 'Pulp Fiction'? (Yeah, but I

train... have you seen—fuck! What's his name? The
guy from the
movie, in the
place, on the

train? With the
scenery?) Uh, I'm tryna remember right now, dammit—'Source Code'! (No)—You haven't seen that? (No)—With the
dude from 'Donnie Darko'? (Who's that?)—Oh my God (Well, I

got it if I, do what I
gotta do to get by And they wonder why I
never get high And they wonder why I
never get high I

got it if I, do what I
gotta do to get by And they wonder why I
