ELZhi - The Recap lyrics
[ELZhi - The Recap lyrics]
Rough draft
Few only knew that's Ty and my nigga Kat
Couldn't tell you where the next
Show or gig is at
When weight fluctuates from slim to
Being big or fat
Forces you to swallow your pride like
Take a swig of that
When it time to cut off my heat
Was on my knees, when I was just on my feet
Could have been in the streets
Came close a few times
Was craving a value meal
Still short two dimes
Must have been hungry cause
I'm writing new rhymes
With dreams of being stable
Big deals on the table
Yet I'm fighting with the label
On the day they cut the cable
I'm staring at four walls
Wish I could paint a better
Picture for you like Warhol
But, I stopped getting checks
From the Preface
Contemplating suicide like I had a death wish
My brother's the only reason
Why I'm not breathless
Why I ate beats for dinner
And sleep for breakfast
The bad got to worse extra quick
When I got the phone call from Black
Milk who told me Hex was sick
Saw my nigga laying there and I almost cried
Still haven't dealt with the
Fact my mother died
Coulda lied, but that's the truth
Plus we just lost 'Tin, lost Dilla
Then right after Proof
Why does it stay cloudy over my
Roof and try to crowd me?
Few only knew that's Ty and my nigga Kat
Couldn't tell you where the next
Show or gig is at
When weight fluctuates from slim to
Being big or fat
Forces you to swallow your pride like
Take a swig of that
When it time to cut off my heat
Was on my knees, when I was just on my feet
Could have been in the streets
Came close a few times
Was craving a value meal
Still short two dimes
Must have been hungry cause
I'm writing new rhymes
With dreams of being stable
Big deals on the table
Yet I'm fighting with the label
On the day they cut the cable
I'm staring at four walls
Wish I could paint a better
Picture for you like Warhol
But, I stopped getting checks
From the Preface
Contemplating suicide like I had a death wish
My brother's the only reason
Why I'm not breathless
Why I ate beats for dinner
And sleep for breakfast
The bad got to worse extra quick
When I got the phone call from Black
Milk who told me Hex was sick
Saw my nigga laying there and I almost cried
Still haven't dealt with the
Fact my mother died
Coulda lied, but that's the truth
Plus we just lost 'Tin, lost Dilla
Then right after Proof
Why does it stay cloudy over my
Roof and try to crowd me?
