Lyrics: TRE ESS
Music: Tre Ess and The Mellow Turtle
[Verse]
Favorite rapper told me "get the chemistry right"
Knocking temples floor, put the Hennessy aside
A god in my head, just saw you walk by
Paid no attention to the ego that I hide
Earnest in the flesh, wrote books and earned listenersÂ
Legendarily underrated among you visitors
Y'all here for the moment and you know it!
Linking up the wrong men in the wrong lane.
Your new techniques were my old recipesÂ
Kill me in my sleep, I won't rest in peace
Be wary of the sheep, the beast is underneathÂ
Addiction is a bitch so I rest under my beats
Arrested by my weed, the rest is her tree
The rest that I seek, ain't here in my reach
Inherited struggles, never plans, never seeds
Stayed clear of the hurdles but my people still weep.
Yeah my people still weep
Too many back stabbers, rather gather enemiesÂ
Ain't it funny, how these rappers try to turn in entities
Like, back in the basement, this what you dreamed?
Like back up your chasers, the faces
That you surround yourself with
Had no ambition 'bout the life that they lead
Had no alliance with the blood that they bleed
All we got is defiance for the funds that they seek
Said, I needed the buzz from your feed
But you won't believe what I live in,
Gotta fly out on the weekend.
Feeling like these shows are my therapyÂ
If I ain't feeling good, then I better be
I don't need a freak but oh girl, you better beÂ
I just need a shrink bringing in Hennessy.
[Bridge]
This time around I ain't going downÂ
I ain't falling out
This time around I ain't going downÂ
I ain't falling out
This time around I ain't going downÂ
I ain't falling out
This time around I ain't going downÂ
I ain't falling out
This time aroundÂ
This time aroundÂ
This time aroundÂ
This time aroundÂ
This time aroundÂ
This time aroundÂ
This time aroundÂ
This time around
I ain't going downÂ
[Verse]
Turtle got a place of his ownÂ
Peace of mind, a piece of my ownÂ
Lost my faith, I found myselfÂ
Rested case, the god been deadÂ
Turtle got a place of his ownÂ
Peace of mind, a piece of my ownÂ
Lost my faith, I found myselfÂ
Rested case, the god been deadÂ
Doomed in our own way
Dance till the morningÂ
Godspeed to the red lightÂ
All this just to get byÂ
Doomed in our own way
Dance till the morningÂ
Godspeed to the red lightÂ
All this, gotta to get by
