Little Brother, Darien Brockington - Not Enough lyrics

We spent the last year writing rhymes
Doing shows and shopping records
And traveled all around the world
To spread the message
Cause ain't no rest for the weary
When it comes to my team
We only sleep on December the 32nd
DJ's dissin' the album before they check it
Dealin' with their managers
And program directors
And even though I try not to stress it
Sometimes it feels like a waste of
Time and not worth the effort

Naw but I won't let it
Put a block on my team's hustle for a second
Poobie keep it rushing
As long as Tay and I on the mic
And 9th is on the percussion
These fronting dudes can't say nothing
It was only time for we finally spoke out


Plenty cold nights ahead I suggest
You get your coats out
No time to stand here lips poked out we
Bout to closeout that stored up doubt
And keep it moving

Seems like whatever I do
Its not enough for you
I paid the cost and gave you my all
But, you still want more
I'm still standing right here
But it seems so unfair
That I sacrifice and give you my life
But, you still want more

Been a long time comin'
But damn we just made it
So much to discuss so frustrated
Yes, I must say that the industry lost touch
Radio better play this
Cause Tay's style is nuts
And y'alls is just dated
Its history in the making
When I write it's for all of NC
Call me the state pen
And now I'm making my name for
Those who hate that I'm
Staking my claim just like Nationwide
Radio, them suckas never play us
Took our wax to the station
And they straight played us
That's how the game got contaminated
And now they sayin' we're at
Fault like the San Andreas

And still trying to play us
But not spin the record or disc
I got a fire burning deep
That will not be extinguished
I mean this from the depths of my soul
People no more mind talk let
My heart take control (ohhhhh)

Seems like whatever I do
Its not enough for you
I paid the cost and gave you my all
But, you still want more
I'm still standing right here
But it seems so unfair
That I sacrifice and give you my life
But, you still want more

Listen to this, just listen to this
Uh, right now
We gettin' it right now and now we
Gonna give you what you want
Just listen to this, just listen to this
I'm talking you, you, you
And all of you in the back
And in the middle in the front, come on

Homie, this here is pain
I'm speaking on this pitiful thing
That's now forever stained in the
Banks of my memory
You probably like, 'they running this, b'
But naw, I'll doubt we'll ever be
Its funny cats don't remember me
And don't think cause we all here
That it's gonna be all we
Or all love, it's all bugged
Trying to mask them emotions
With pounds and hugs
No more I say gotta make'em pay
Cause, I'm tired of getting stepsonned in
The worst way just wait
These chips on my shoulder gettin' stacked
When my pockets catch up
Pooh's never turning back

Yo I ain't never heard a
Actor blow and go global
Then come back home and still be called local
And when we onstage the people they all front
Dope beats
Dope rhymes what more do y'all want
(shout it out)

Seems like whatever I do
Its not enough for you
I paid the cost and gave you my all
But, you still want more
I'm still standing right here
But it seems so unfair
That I sacrifice and give you my life
But, you still want more

"Ladies and gentlemen
Our next performer needs
Absolutely no introduction
He's given the world such classic hit's as
Rollover Love and Big Girl Lovin'
Please welcome one of soul music's pioneers
Mr percy Miracles"
