Devin The Dude - I need a song lyrics

I need a song that I can sing
When I'm alone with my smoke, and my drank
I need a place where I could live
With a piece of mind i need some time
So I could chill get in my zone
I need a song

To help me through my days
And help me with my nights
I chant my words like prayers to
Help me deal with life
In front of this mic I control
The world I'm living in
The stage is my pulpit while
I preach to my citizens
Don't care 'bout fitting in
Just want who listening
To know the words I quote
Are sincerely from deep within
Whenever I grab my pen and share this part
Of me, I only speak the truth
Respect my artistry
The liquor gets me lifted and
The coffee keeps me focused
It helps me find a zone away
From all the shit thats bogus
I'm tryna touch bases that
Writers often leave alone
I'm letting my words fall on these
Papers when I write these songs
I wanna feel as if I'm Marvin back in '74
And when my brother went to war and "what's
Going on" was a song I wrote
I'm tuned in at what I know
Would make you feel me
Go deep inside this music tryna show
The world the real me i need a song
That I can sing when I'm alone
With my smoke, and my drank i need a place
Where I could live with a piece of mind
I need some time so I could chill
Get in my zone i need a song

When I'm feeling overwhelmed and stressed
It's like I could hardly even
Tell that I'm blessed
I've been dealt with the mess so long
Pen still in my hand
But, I feeling like I'm failing a test
Tell with the rest of my soul needs ease
Clocking these Gs yeah the block is knee deep
But my kids need me so my mind needs free
So I can still keep giving y'all a piece
Donny Hathaway had me find a path away
To take my mind away from trouble
What a hater got to say
What bills be paid, chicks need labels
Stables straight played and got played
How much who made, made time for the hood
Bad, the good, misunderstood
But it never crossed my mind, pause my grind
Spend a little time with wood
Sometimes I wish I could turn
My cell and laptop off
And ride on a plane until I get dropped off
Bucket of Heineken with the top popped off
Then I hopped off
Don't nobody know I'm there
Never heard my music and
They really don't care
Don't point, take pictures, don't stare
Keep weed mixtures in the air
Exotic textures everywhere
Got me swinging off fixtures like yeah
Feeling good like yessir I'm there
But that's just a dream
Reality is this track's a hot one
Three minutes ago I needed a song
And now I got one i need a song
That I can sing when I'm alone
With my smoke, and my drank i need a place
Where I could live with a piece of mind
I need some time so I could chill
Get in my zone i need a song

I need a song that I can sing
When I'm alone with my smoke, and my drank
I need a place where I could live
With a piece of mind i need a bong
So I could chill get in my zone
I need a song
