Joshua Gunn - Escalators lyrics

rate me

Seems like everybody waiting on

Somebody to save ‘em

We gotta be major, that’s why we riding on these escalator

Seems like everybody waiting on

Somebody to save ‘em

We gotta be major, that’s why we riding on these escalators

Look at me from my surroundings, said I couldn’t make it

Did all they could to bring me down but I’m just levitating

They took the breath from off my town, but I’m the respirator

Climb above the pressure fading riding up this escalator

Let the weapons spray ‘em, really I’m just fresh with cadence

An independent label pending but my blessings major

So I don’t question what was made for me, just cash the favor

It would seem as if for me my symphony is really angels

A list on the composition so competition’s really not existent

Could make a million from no pot to piss in

Now I’m on this diamond mission tryna dodge a Robin Gibbins

He wasn’t with me on them sleepless nights

But you don’t need to ask me ‘bout no empty light

The greatest rapper in this scene, don’t need to be for life

Now we on the way, new heights, rising like my future bright

Seems like everybody waiting on

Somebody to save ‘em

We gotta be major, that’s why we riding on these escalators

Seems like everybody waiting on

Somebody to save ‘em

We gotta be major, that’s why we riding on these escalators

Life might seem what you made of

And we made it, be amazing, that’s why we riding on these escalators

Told her see me at the top but don’t see me at all

The only reason that they watch me is to see me fall

You can’t run with me while I’m walking, you ain’t seen me crawl

You started from nothing, getting something seems you have it all

I really brawl, winter falls, spring, summer, dog

When I say hungry I mean nothing in my stomach, dog

When I say no many that’s literally zero money

No advance, no show money so broke you still owe money

So if you see me blow money forgive me in advance

Don’t judge me from your coffer, you ain’t never wore my pants

Can’t walk a mile in my shoes, can’t never count for my dues

And they count me out so I clouded out but the house stood up when I lose

But we won’t lose, against it all, we’ll not lose

You would’ve been quit by now but you don’t get that I am not you

See, this is in my blood, success to me is like drugs

But the best MC standing next to me, watch you forget who he was

And it does

Seems like everybody waiting on

Somebody to save ‘em

We gotta be major

Seems like everybody waiting on

Somebody to save ‘em

We gotta be major, that’s why we riding on these escalators

We gotta be major, that’s why we riding on these escalators

Life might seem what you made of

And we made it, be amazing, that’s why we riding on these escalators

Seems like everybody waiting on

Somebody to save ‘em

We gotta be major

Seems like everybody waiting on

Somebody to save ‘em

We gotta be major, that’s why we riding on these escalators
