Jon Connor - The Blackout Lyrics
Y’all really think I give a ***** ‘bout half the shit y’all sayBeen dodging hate since I was 8, I could do this shit all dayWanna kick my feet up but the lease up so I’m out this *****Soon as that day come when everybody around me richSelfish intentions, selfish motives attracted by yourselfAnd when it don’t be you that mean you gotta watch everybody elseBut that’s exhausting, I chose the latter, I just don’t ***** with y’allSo consequently, when I be down I don’t know who the ***** to callJust give me a minute, don’t own the key to successYea, I got this from CosbyBut I know the key to failure is when you try to please everybodyI write this shit to keep you personalSo just keep on playing this song until your stress is goneI’ll be a shrink to your problems, a shrink ‘til they become extinctMy cousin gone, do I lose sleep over haters?What the ***** you think? Hell nahI don’t know what to tell y’allExcept that you create your own destinyAnd my passion will never fail y’allWell yo I’d tell livin’ swell y’allBut I’d be lying if I ain’t sayin’ I went through hell y’allMy tails of fighting demons in brimstone compels allBut I tell the ugly truth about the hood and hopes that it repels y’allI hope that y’all don’t get the wrong impression of meI swear I’m trying to use discretion with this aggression homieWhat do people want to know my music is to truly know meMy middle finger is reserved for the fake and phonyIt is what it is and as long as I’m my mama’s sonI’mma chase my dreams so youAin’t gotta count down how long I runShit, the eternal yard dash in the finish lineIt’s in his mind and I know winning is not far awayBut the beginning is trying harder bullshit in this rap game, ***** itI’mma eat that just as long asI give that real shit to all my people who need thatAnd ***** yea I’mma lash outWithout a go never back outAs hard as y’all know that I’mma shineI guess I just had to blackout, Blackout
