Hopsin - Nocturnal Rainbows lyrics
[Hopsin - Nocturnal Rainbows lyrics]
You think you're original? You ain't original
You were programmed to be you
You're a slave, and you don't even know it
The shit you think of
Ain't even your thoughts
Let's step out the box for a minute!
How do we know if God exists?
How do we know it's positive?
Are you the definition of an
Angel or the opposite?
If you lost your wallet and I found it
I would not commit to stealin' it
But, if the tables turned
Then you would pocket it
See, I been me for so long
But I still don't know who Hopsin is
How come I'm the one my teachers
Used to have a problem with?
I show my music to different labels
They ain't too fond of it
But in the underground I seem
To get so many compliments
Say my name and it's like
People get afraid and shook
But, if you take a look
You'll see I'm nothin' like an angry crook
I'm learnin' hands-on
You busy with your face in books
I'm here to benefit the world
So Heaven's where we're safely put
I'm not a devil, not speakin' in tongues
I just wanna touch your heart
I try to reach it in songs
I'm from where a child's future's on
The streets with the bums
Because it's hard to become somethin'
So unique where I'm from
When the sun's down
Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high
It may seem so that I can't see
But the darkness provides the light for me
I don't wanna be lonely
And the moon is my only homie
If there's a higher power, then show me
Instead of nocturnal rainbows
Obama's president, so? What's he represent?
Just because the nigga's half black
Don't mean he's Heaven-sent
You're clueless to evidence and all
The minds he's messin' with
His charmin' smile hasn't got my ass
Up out this debt for shit
Frontin' like he's truly Jesus
And all you fools believe it
The change he's makin' isn't good
That's just how you conceived it
It's like we're all broker than ever
It's due to reasons
Dealin' with self-beneficial plans and
The movement he's with
Illuminati, or whatever the fuck they go by
They're the reason weird shit happens
And we don't know why
Why did Michael Jackson start his tour
Then have to go die?
How did rap music go from
Really good to so dry?
Real artists get shelved and
Wack ones get famous
To leave masses brainless
A smart mind is dangerous
In their eyes there probably ain't no
Real shit in your playlist
You're just a product of what
The government has created
When the sun's down
Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high
It may seem so that I can't see
But the darkness provides the light for me
I don't wanna be lonely
And the moon is my only homie
If there's a higher power then show me
Instead of nocturnal rainbows
Yo, we're all smart
And we know what's bad and good for us
But yet, when you got offered some marijuana
You took a puff
Your brain's a fuckin' powerhouse, but what
That wasn't good enough?
It's people like you who
Talk that "shoulda, coulda, woulda" stuff
You probably threw your life away ‘cause
You would rather get high
With no license or car
So you bum rides to get by
Sayin', "I should've did this" or "I
Shouldn't have hung with this guy"
"I'm broke as fuck, my rent's high ah
I should've realized"
I ain't bein' cruel with these
Situations that I address
I more than likely could
Be someone you admire, yes
But, it's because the blood
Sweat and all the time that I invest
We play the same game
Difference is you never try your best
You don't have a skill
You set yourself up for a higher mess
I work around the clock
You slack off for lots of time to rest
Keep bullshittin' till your life is gone
‘Cause livin's naturally hell
You have to work to put a smile on
When the sun's down
Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high
It may seem so that I can't see
But the darkness provides the light for me
I don't wanna be lonely
And the moon is my only homie
If there's a higher power then show me
Instead of nocturnal rainbows
When the sun's down
Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high
It may seem so that I can't see
But the darkness provides the light for me
I don't wanna be lonely
And the moon is my only homie
If there's a higher power then show me
Instead of nocturnal rainbows
Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high
Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high
Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high
Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high
You were programmed to be you
You're a slave, and you don't even know it
