Dream Junkies - Explain lyrics

Uh, hello Mr melanin this is Dr steve Maddix
I'm just calling to let you know
All the tests were negative
And you are in perfect health
So there is really no good reason why
This album is not out yet
So I expect it to be out as soon as possible
And a free copy
You can bring it when you come back
In the office for your next checkup peace

I don't wanna hear no more trap beats
Feel like I'm racing with the
Groove like a track meet
Even though I've trained like an athlete
So you don't wanna catch a
90's fade like it's Blackstreet
Homie that's deep
Did Kendrick tell you Backstreet Boys to
Go ahead and take a backseat
Freestyle, meanwhile I continue lasting


I continue gaining weight even
When I'm fasting
Wait, I don't know if that's
Something to brag about haters in the house
Dream Junkies went and ran 'em out
I ain't rich or famous but I
Can say that it's panning out
And I don't really care if Don
Cannon got his cannon out
See I don't need a co-sign
Especially when the average consumer
Seems so blind

And what's the point of getting rich
If then you have no time
I'm on my way to getting both
And life feels so fine oh my, God
We did it on His terms and
Did it on our clock did it the way we wanted
While these other rappers watched
While they keep playing they Barts
I don't mean to sound harsh
But it seems like very few were
Really speaking from they're hearts

When the debt seems stacked and
The money feels low
And my corner saying yes but
The crowd is yelling no
And they don't mean to offend me
I get it the odds are against me
When the debt seems stacked and
The money feels low
And my corner saying yes but
The crowd is yelling no
And they don't mean to offend me
I get it the odds are against me
But, I don't need to explain myself
No, I don't need to explain myself
I don't need to explain myself
No, I don't need to explain myself to you

I desired the fan, this lyrical fire
The flame the blaze the torch to 'em
Wildfire uncontained i'm more than human
I am restrained by the flesh
The blood, the bones, organs and veins
Still I refrain from using profane speech
And setting unrealistic goals I can't reach
There's a thorn in my flesh
It feels like a beast
And I would meet my death
If only you would increase
Let me be the deceased, I fall into a grave
Into a pit, into a ditch, into a casket
I behave just like a slave
Freedom seemed unsafe
But, I rather felt the security
Than to need faith
And I'd rather be the minority
Then to make haste
I put beats to death and resurrect the great
Gallica in a fruit

Bite wasn't more than a grape
Put a mallet to your mind
Watch the lies dissipate
This a pace I embrace
Peek-a boo hide your face
Hide your kids, hide your wife
Watch your legacy erase
I put my family first
And punctuate the face of anybody
Offended with a freaking exclama-tion
Point taken
Chewing on turkey bacon and avocado
I'm part of the beard gang bravado
What's worse
Being full of it or just as hollow?
I'm elevating my mind but
Not higher like Colorado come on

And man I swear these boys were true poppers
Hanging and slanging on the
Corner dressed in blue
Johnny law got involved
I was only just a youth and then it hit me
I gotta find a better way to move
Met up with some dudes named
Beleaf the other Ru
Brang me around the church and
Fell in love with the Lord
He told me I was something new
And then I knew immediately what
I was supposed to do
Now I'm standing on stages
Tryna encourage all of my brothers
That's trapped in mazes
The truth really I'm amazed at the way
That the fable lays on my shoulder
And when I hit the pearly gates I'm gonna
Praise Him for opening up the doors
See the story may not be yours
But the chorus that was in-store
Is a portion of plenty more than
I ever had thought before
Pray to God that my mother
Be blessed for many moons
All the nights she stayed up
Wondering what I was doing
But now she know where I'm goin'
My granny had called it yonder
Headed up heavens highway to see my Father
I'm taking my people farther with this
Though at times a broken spirit
Make it harder for this
I'm caught up by when
