GrewSum - Hear Me lyrics

As I’m standin' in my place, a rapper
I feel like I'm staring in
The face of disaster
Like they duplicated all the faces in plaster
And my only hope is if I'm
Gonna change to an actor
Like where did it go? To hell with control
Everybody joined the bandwagon
Sellin' your soul
Tellin' em all the story remains
Always the same
As you whore yourself out for
The glory and vain but not me
I'ma stick to what has gotten me this far
Composure and honing my skill as I spit bars
And this art has been tainted
Scarred then faded
A kick start to switch to always changing
All the old same, cars and gold chains
Lost the old game that was raw as cocaine
Plots that don't change
Never gave 'em a choice
But you're about to feel the pain now
That they gave me a voice

How long will it take them
To finally see the light?
Cause it sit's on my mind and
I can't sleep at night
And when they draw their blinds
It isn't feelin' right
How long will it take them
To finally see the light?

Hear me! When I state my name, state my claim
Ain’t about to let you break the game
Fear me! Infiltrate your brain, face the pain
Making everybody take the blame

It’s like I’m rhymin' for the dead
Still plan to thrill or like I’m runnin' on
A treadmill standin' still
While they rappin', get they rep killed
Lacking skill
Blue pill or the red pill? That’s the deal
Like they fear they might lack appeal
Wack for real
Crap that still should coming in a happy meal
This creates the underdog
Wait for the runt to stomp
People don't originate
Just take from the one they saw
Repetitive trends, where competitors bend
To mesh and create a new sedative and
Where raps put you to sleep
With words under the beat
While my words shake the
Concrete under your feet
Cause I move with my words
And the music backs it
And you got it backwards so I must attack it
I'm not just another nerd who
Came to rap shit i'm here to bomb the
Absurd with lyrical tactics

How long will it take them
To finally see the light?
Cause it sit's on my mind and
I can't sleep at night
And when they draw their blinds
It isn't feelin' right
How long will it take them
To finally see the light?

Hear me! When I state my name, state my claim
Ain’t about to let you break the game
Fear me! Infiltrate your brain, face the pain
Making everybody take the blame

I’m ornery cause corny words bore me
(And I hate that)
Formin' an army to storm in
('Til we break that) habit you created
Damned and my impatience has me
Liberated so cats eliminated
For wack impersonations of raps
Across the nation it adds to the equation
And massive circulation
Of people who don’t even try
To rip or be original
Their cliques are hypocritical
This shit is fucking pitiful
It's like the territory just came with abuse
Is this a fuckin' iced out chain or a noose?
But I'm wicked, the maestro
Can kick it like TaeBo
The simple design flows are killin' me
I know they should be much deeper
But they do it for wealth
Severing the heaven, now I'm movin' to hell
I know they don't want it man
But Grew is the help
And if they don't wanna participate
I'll do it myself

How long will it take them
To finally see the light?
Cause it sit's on my mind and
I can't sleep at night
And when they draw their blinds
It isn't feelin' right
How long will it take them
To finally see the light?

Hear me! When I state my name, state my claim
Ain’t about to let you break the game
Fear me! Infiltrate your brain, face the pain
Making everybody take the blame

How long will it take them
To finally see the light?
Cause it sit's on my mind and
I can't sleep at night
And when they draw their blinds
It isn't feelin' right
How long will it take them
To finally see the light?

Hear me! When I state my name, state my claim
Ain’t about to let you break the game
Fear me! Infiltrate your brain, face the pain
Making everybody take the blame
