Motion Picture 歌詞
Let me take another sip, another sip, another sip...
[Verse One]
Populate my flow with concentrated growth
Hear my verses, hear my beats, you know I dominate at both
Got my nickname up in high school from this girl named Winta
Those was my early days, when I didnt have concern for figures
But times change...
Im over-thinking everything, mind games.. .
Feel like its feeding on my brain, now
Im second guessing every effort, every sentence
Does my breath need less inflection, am I being too reflective?
Is such and such really better? Is my message even clever?
Im apprehended by this pressure, but shall I surrender?
I look at my own team like, damn, I wish they would help me more
Thats no diss, just being honest , already pressed record
So cant take it back, and plus I know my destinys in my hand
**** man, I be stressin, maybe I should be more aggressive
I really got some demons Im embarrassed bout
Watch this verse become a motion picture, but whats Paramount was my fear
Was out in LA, man Im sittin here with a living legend
A living legend, the same one that made Resurrection
No I.D., but they all just called him 'Dion'
And meanwhile Im just overthinking, 'should I play him Beyond?
Should I play him 'Mama Told Me' and all my other classics?'
But same old Damon, I just sat there being passive
I never said a word, never shared a verse
Then came back to Chicago acting like it never occurred
[Hook]
Theres a million words hiding in my silence
Theres a graveyard hiding in my closet
Cant be that same dude chillin on the corner
So what you waiting on, tell me do you want it?
Look through my eyes maybe you can see the riot
Have you ever heard a storm that was quiet?
Cant be the same dude chillin on the corner
So what you waiting on, tell me do you want it?
[Verse Two]
Sipping on that Templeton
Money short, no dividends
Bank account aint got no zeros, yet I still be zeroed in
Got no time for simpletons
Bumping Andre Benjamin
In the crib, hit the shuffle now it starts that Eminem
said you only get one shot, only get one shot
I hope that aint true, cause I still got my gun cocked
Its 12:59, Im in the club probably Shrine
Sometimes its lacking but tonight I see the hottest dimes
Yellow dress up in the corner red nails I think I want her
Hair braided to the side, nose ring, prima donna
God damn girl youre killing triple murder
Tell the judge tell your honor
Like a goddess from some folklore, oh lord
My god, swear I couldnt stop staring
I think I need another drink so I can get more daring
One shot, two shots, three shots, now Im ready
Going for the gold, hang my banner, spray that confetti
Truthfully I got no game
But when that liquor hit me I be feeling vain
Told her my name, I swore our conversation was like magic
Now we dancing to some classic ****
Should I grab that ass, Damon dont be so passive
Had her laughing, we exchanged digits
I met my wife, I wonder if she had that same vision
Well lets see, that next morning had to text her
I told her she got me under
Sorry I dont remember who you are and lose my number
Theres a million words hiding in my silence
Theres a graveyard hiding in my closet
Cant be that same dude chillin on the corner
So what you waiting on, tell me do you want it?
Look through my eyes maybe you can see the riot
Have you ever heard a storm that was quiet?
Cant be the same dude chillin on the corner
So what you waiting on, tell me do you want it?
