[Big K.R.I.T. - Voices lyrics]
Yea I got these voices in my ear
I got these voices in my ear
Yea I got these voices in my ear
I got these voices in my ear
Yea I got these voices in my ear
Wake up to the sound of a million horns
Jesus piece, ruby red, diamond in the thorns
Say a prayer for the jammed
And the one that's gone
I might've missed my nigga wake
But still I mourn
Did it big in the club with my cash out
But dealing with a lot so I
Drunk until I passed out
Went abroad, I met a broad with her ass out
Her concern was to earn like "nigga
What your cash 'bout?"
In the VIP on my tip with a glass out
We live a paparazzi life
What's your flash 'bout?
In a mattress in the ceiling
What's your stash 'bout?
In case I had doubts
I got these voices in my ear
They tell me get up, get up, get up
I got these voices in my ear
They tell me wake up, wake up, wake up
I got these voices in my ear
They tell me keep runnin', keep runnin'
Keep runnin' i got these voices in my ear
They tell me get money, get money, get money
Breathe
What if a dream was all you had?
And life ain't fab
You can't throw it in the bag
Niggas ain't real, hoes ain't shit
My hand-me downs was too big
They buying clothes that don't fit i'm like
It was more than fame and the credit
Feeling like my whole life I've been
Trying to be the freshest
Respected, in a world full of kings
You pathetic, if you can't
Buy the finer things, before you exit
The very moment that you got it: "I swear
My biggest fear is that I'll die nobody"
Forgotten, when I was really at my best
Seems like nothing left
I got these voices in my ear
They tell me get up, get up, get up
I got these voices in my ear
They tell me wake up, wake up, wake up
I got these voices in my ear
They tell me keep runnin', keep runnin'
Keep runnin' i got these voices in my ear
They tell me get money, get money, get money
Breathe
Lately I've been feeling like fuck it
Heaven's in my face
But Lord knows I can't touch it
Plus I heard the angel wings was kinda heavy
Scared to put 'em on my back so
I threw 'em on a Chevy
Death knocking on my door, I can get it
Looking through the peephole in
Case I ain't ready
Fuck this rap shit, yeah I said it
On the road to the riches ain't
No telling where I'm heading
Now I dread it, world ain't what it seems
Enduring all the shit to be king
Praying for tomorrow
There's more time to borrow
Scared, aware, they whisper "never fear"
I got these voices in my ear
They tell me get up, get up, get up
I got these voices in my ear
They tell me wake up, wake up, wake up
I got these voices in my ear
They tell me keep runnin', keep runnin'
Keep runnin' i got these voices in my ear
They tell me get money, get money, get money
Breathe
Man 1 - My life today?
Hmm more volatile than ever
This last year alone I've
Been shot down, bloodied
Trampled, accused, threatened, disgraced
Betrayed, scandalized, maligned
Tough? You bet
Your ass it is, but I ain't leaving
Nothing comes easy man 2 - The last question
Is it truly worth it?
Man 1 - Sure, you know why? I love what I do
I pray for people and when you think of
Most of your work in life, most
Of people's lives are spent on endeavors and
Very few people really enjoy what
They do and I love what I
Do, so yeah, it's worth it
Damn right it's worth it
