Jon Connor - Still Here Lyrics
(Hook)They want me gone but I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereSo they keep on calling me backThat's why I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereThat's why I'm still hereAnd everywhere that I goThey hold me now 'cause they knowI'm always with 'emSo they keep on calling me backThat's why I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live here(Verse)I feel like I'm the only rapper that's still realThat would give a handshake to his fan andSo say thank you, ain't nothing gratefulThis road to take you through shit that will test your willIn a time when they respect meals instead of skillsBut a deal don't make you realThey say it's just music ,it's just stupidThink about how many hours we listen to itSo I embrace my influenceI knew this shit as an add a lessonWhen I was a freshmanBefore my gift was the freshestI was writing rhymes and failing testingSo picture that teachers gave up on me this shit was heavyThey never figured that I knew what I wanted to do alreadyI'm sitting there writing rhymes they like, Jon don't waste your mindThey had my feeling like this rap shit was a waste of timeI feel like who gon' stop me, can't see my vision, watch meThey say only one in a million, well I feel like one nowMe, it ain't shit that I can't have, and a star that I can't grabLast ones always end up first, first one always end up last(Hook)So I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereSo they keep on calling me backThat's why I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereThe people keep on calling me backSo everywhere that I goThey hold me now 'cause they knowI'm always with 'emSo they keep on calling me backThat's why I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereAnd they keep on calling me back(Verse)What you supposed to doWhen they approaching you like older schoolAnd you get emotional 'cause nobody close to youKnow what you going throughA dream chase is a dream catch but the people lazyInstead of encouraging you they rather say you crazyBut what's insane to me it's whenPeope don't listen to young people that's giftedAnd say they dreaming relentlessAnd they end up settlingWhen they had a chance but they missed itThey got a life and they hate itTryin' to meet your expectationsThey can't be you they can only be themThe problem is how much they care about they way you see themThey keep on trying to reach you that's why you can't teach themAll you gotta do is listen you ain't gotta read themAll the pressure and the weight they tryin'To make explanations about why we ain't live up to expectationsI know you expect a greatness butAllow me to tell you the truthGreat is when you master doing youFor real, let's go(Hook)So I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereSo they keep on calling me backThat's why I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereThe people keep on calling me backSo everywhere that I goThey hold me now 'cause they knowI'm always with 'emSo they keep on calling me backThat's why I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereAnd they keep on calling me back(Verse)I played the underdog butWhat's enough what's shaking toughThey steady digging for the bestYou get this diamond in a roughI never wanted recognitionNothing handed nor givenFeel like God never answerAnd the devil is a mischief shitAin't answering so following dreams seems so prelificWhen the cops made me mad at a house I knew I get itEveryday the thought of niggers looking stupid is my vengenceAnd this tension is mistaken to be bitter but it's iller 'causeMama told me college was my ship to the starsAnd class thinking damn 16 credits said he's bossContemplation in conversation of who gon' make it turn upGod damn congratulations my saving graces if I quitThen I'm proving all these theories that they stare me 'cause I flowOn my feet, getting weary hope you hear me andLove turned to hate,and this dilly getting near meI won't make a compromiseSo these niggers can't let me mother*****er(Hook)So I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereSo they keep on calling me backThat's why I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereThe people keep on calling me backSo everywhere that I goThey hold me now 'cause they knowI'm always with 'emSo they keep on calling me backThat's why I'm still hereI'm in this ***** like I live hereAnd they keep on calling me back(Outro)I made this shitFor you,you,youDon't get it twistedEvery time I write a rhymeThat shit for you,you,youI know you hear meIf you feel mesnow I made that shitFor you,you,youDon't get it twistedEverytime you hear my voiceThat's shit for you,you,you
