YONAS - This Goes Out To You lyrics

Check it, aye yo
This right here is, this is honestly the jam
To make them all say YONAS
Is honestly the man
On my Ferris Bueller shit
School was never in the plan
Because what I got is special like
A jewel in the sand
Make a move where they can slam
Rappers like to pretend
I always keep a girl that's why
They like me to win
And who would've ever thought that
My life would ever begin
By inspiring the world through the
Strike of a pen
So I got to thank the fans because
They made me who I am
First, they showed me how to fall
Then they taught me how to stand
I just got to be myself
And they all understand
Like an Aloe Blacc song
I'm the man, I'm the man (Ha ha)
I took a theory and I turned it into fact
You took a couple rock songs
And turned them into rap
You all liked it better because I
Gave it what it lacked
Had some fun with it and then I gave it back
So this is for you

This goes out to you this goes out to you
This goes out to you
You were there when no one was around
This goes out to you this goes out to you
This goes out to you
You were there when no one was around

Now I don't have a corny name for my fan base
But they still love me because
I'm something you can't hate
Plus I draw what these
Other dudes can't trace
Out of this world you're better
Off trying to scan space
A bed of nails, ain't no sleeping on the kid
I don't usually smoke
But now I'm chiefing on the clear
It's never easy to cope when the reason
You exist is to carry the torch
My niggas reaching for this shit
But, I got it nope, I'm not a novice
I know I'm an artist and also a product
And I got friends that look like Mike Brown
But, I got some friends that
Live in white towns
So I try to find a way to stay cool
But somehow I always manage to break rules
And if I ever lied on a record
Lord let me die today (Huh)
And by the way, I do this for you

This goes out to you this goes out to you
This goes out to you
You were there when no one was around
This goes out to you this goes out to you
This goes out to you
You were there when no one was around

This is for any being being creative
I thank you for the things
That you have created
Even if it seems that we ain't related
You're the reason I ever had
Dreams of being the greatest
I could rush to the finish
But shit is better patient
Feeling like I'm minutes from a celebration
Pour champagne glass leaving demons
In the past one toast for success
Another toast to make it last

This goes out to you this goes out to you
This goes out to you
You were there when no one was around
This goes out to you this goes out to you
This goes out to you
You were there when no one was around
