Andy Dufresne Letra

Right, like you even give a slight care
I become alive in the night, yeah, with shit that haunts my mind
And makes my gut twist, I tuck lips
'Cause music moves my soul and lyrics touch my heart
And sew me together when my emotions tear me apart
It takes me places that I've never been and I'm bound to go
And people who impose are only hindering their own
Believe in me when I'm nothing and you'll be there when I'm something
In a field of dreams where when it rains, it pours, I'm sunken
I hate the hate, but without the hate, then I'm nothing
The same ones that pull your card are the same ones bluffing
And old girls that wouldn't date you now are blushing
It's absolute time for me to crunch in
And as far as time goes, make sure you own yours
Or reluctantly have not enough to be successful or too much of it
We love having sex but hate loving
And problems are the answers depending what you take from it
See, I find it a compliment when people with accomplishments
Start popping shit about your confidence
And when you drop a hit, shit, they don't acknowledge it
'Cause pride's a thick ball of snottiness to be swallowing
Yet someone whose buzzing moderate, they'll let rock a set
And that's because they're comfortable given chances to those who are not a threat
But me, I walk twice as hard to earn respect
Literally in steps and in heart that I invest
I'm not claiming to be the best, I just got a story to tell
With half an image that sells and the other half that propels
Me to new heights, that's why when I write, I reach a new nice
And gain fame off my life where I pay a price
'Cause I've had hard days when work sucks and I wanna snap
That's called real life 'cause in reality I wanna rap
But I'm a working man, facts earning meals without snacks
Trying to reach my goals, defending my post without kicking back
So it's hard not to react when every kid that I pass
Taps his mom and he asks why does walk like that
Looking back, d you know what that makes me feel inside?
To be alive on stage, yet wanna be concealed and hide?
It's like being speared alive and being looked in the eyes
While you're dying with disgrace as if you kneeled and died
Why is mediocrity being oversold
And nobody cares about a quiet man holding gold?
Staying humble and taking small steps proves my point
That in time you'll never be overhyped and disappoint
Like most, and be considered another lame
If the rules don't apply to you, then reinvent the game
At times I have quiet reminders that I'm sane
And no matter what they say, there's no reason for me to change
'Cause I've already changed others through myself
So if I change what changes others, how does changing that help?
I feel the wave of staying current and creating stability
But the wind blows whatever direction, regardless if they feeling me
'Cause no matter what, in due time, most of them are killing me
The spotlight loses watts before it does the MC
'Cause the spotlight loses watts before it does the MC
'Cause the spotlight loses watts before it does the MC
