Lee Banks - Listen lyrics
rate meA wise man once told me that
God gave us all two ears and one mouth
So we could listen twice as much as we talk
So on that note, shut the fuck up
Wise words are being spoken
I got so much shit to talk about and I just hope the world listen
‘Cause I’ve been through some things and I want y’all to pay attention
Just open up your ears and be game to what I mention
Better take it in and never ever forget it
I hope the world listen, listen, listen, listen
‘Cause I got so much shit to talk about and I just hope the world listen
Listen, listen, listen, listen
‘Cause I got so much shit to talk about and I just hope the world listen
Nobody notice my struggle, I look at life alone
Focusing on my talks and oh’s enough to know what’s right from wrong
Been through so much pain, it’s a shame
But life goes on and the Lord blessed me with a lot of courage
Got a lot more with a microphone
So I don’t keep it closed, speak that shit that people need to hear
Your favorite rapper fake, I can’t relate ‘cause he ain’t even real
This nigga dry snitching, rapping shit that I can’t even feel
I base my shit on light, it’s only right for me to see a deal for real
Almost got killed, almost got threw away for some years
Lost big load then I lost G wheel then I lost my heart and I lost my skills
Life full of pain so I take pain pills
Going insane and I can’t stay still, I wanna just chill
Looking for a mill’ but I can’t start now ‘cause I gotta feed Lee
Nigga, fuck it but I gotta get greedy, gotta show a nigga ‘cause a nigga ain’t believe it
Gotta catch every single nigga who ever cut throat to me
‘Cause I really wanna get even, won’t you try your feet, but I got my reasons
Keep my peace, don’t plan on leaving
Of and steady, nigga still cheefing, wheezing, nigga, my life ain’t easy, believe it
I got so much shit to talk about and I just hope the world listen
‘Cause I’ve been through some things and I want y’all to pay attention
Just open up your ears and be game to what I mention
Better take it in and never ever forget it
I hope the world listen, listen, listen, listen
‘Cause I got so much shit to talk about and I just hope the world listen
Listen, listen, listen, listen
‘Cause I got so much shit to talk about and I just hope the world listen
It’s verse two, now imagine the shit I go through
Bet you wonder why I ain’t in the back of a hearse, too
I constantly ask myself ‘nigga, you sure somebody ain’t cursed you?’
‘Cause I really don’t wanna think about the worst
‘Fore I let a nigga hurt me I’mma burst from the first move
Don’t wanna end up in no jury suit with no choice, with my back down
I never back down, you better ask wrong, I got a fucked ass background
Packed a lot of cats in a backpack in a blast Mac
But I don’t do no acting, a nigga ain’t rapping, I’m … nigga
And I keep dreaming, bet me and the reaper beefing
And I really don’t do much sleeping, I’m sick of running from all these demons
That I keep seeing, like the police in, if they come then I’m probably fleeing
Wanna stay free and do the right thing but the right thing ain’t always easy
And it seemed I’m fucked up, keep hearing voices all in my head
Afraid of getting Aids, don’t fuck too much, I just be getting head
Fuck these zoners, eat, fuck the beef, I just be getting bread
There’s goals I gotta reach and I’m gonna reach ‘em before I end up dead
I got so much shit to talk about and I just hope the world listen
‘Cause I’ve been through some things and I want y’all to pay attention
Just open up your ears and be game to what I mention
Better take it in and never ever forget it
I hope the world listen, listen, listen, listen
‘Cause I got so much shit to talk about and I just hope the world listen
Listen, listen, listen, listen
‘Cause I got so much shit to talk about and I just hope the world listen
