Nujabes, Substantial - Waiting For The Clouds lyrics
[Nujabes, Substantial - Waiting For The Clouds lyrics]
Substantial and Nujabes still doin’ this
And it’s infinite
Hydeout promo, let's get into it, uh
Waiting for the clouds to part
Waiting to be out of the dark
If our future's bright
Then the present is a overcast
And we want it to be over fast, let's shine
Got to get above the
Clouds without a aircraft
That is without a doubt such a rare task
Finding it hard to grin or just share laughs
So you vent when that drum
Hat and snare clash
No plan B, plan A is weak
Mentally and physically drained
And you can't sleep
Rent's a month overdue as of last week
A shadow of your future self
Below a vast peak
While people walk past like they can't speak
Ignored coz without rich shit
You're piss poor
Quit more drowning your spirit, with liquor
And victor, isn't a realistic picture
But, you still take the shot and develop it
For the hell of it
And pray when you'll wake you'll be relevant
And put your best on
You're no longer worse off
Slaving at a job you hate, for a jerk off
You just wanna be kissed by the sun
Where your daughter's always safe in
The midst of having fun
Having some will more than due when
You used to having none
Disregard the chatter from know-it-all’s
Who haven’t won, while you're
Waiting for the clouds to part
Waiting to be out of the dark
If our future's bright
Then the present is overcast
And we want it to be over fast, let's shine
Parents couldn't do the job
They signed up fo’ gave you life
But they should've gave you much mo’
Won't judge, but I surely won't applaud them
They lost, and somebody gotta’ raise their
Child for them now you're in and out of
Various households and juvy
Cross Paths of ghetto fab to
The white collar and boushi
Who answer the call of duty
Or is it truly for a check?
But regardless of they motives
They feel you owe them respect
You don't know how to act like you
Got a part in a movie but lack direction
How do you show love
If you never had affection
Dying slow brah, like you got a bad infection
Ain't no band-aid for man made self hate
It heal slow, but I'm not sure of you'll wait
Education is the medication
To get yourself straight
The war within you reached a stalemate
But good gotta win in the end
Or else jail wait's broken soul cell mates
Followed by hell's gates
For Bad apples sell failure wait's in
The belly of the beast
And it's never gonna cease till
You chose to elevate
I'm ready when you are to celebrate
Till then I'll be
Waiting for the clouds to part
Waiting to be out of the dark
If our future's bright
Then the present is overcast
And we want it to be over fast, let's shine
And it’s infinite
Hydeout promo, let's get into it, uh
Waiting for the clouds to part
Waiting to be out of the dark
If our future's bright
Then the present is a overcast
And we want it to be over fast, let's shine
