Murs - No More Control lyrics

rate me

Ft. MNDR

(Verse)

Joggin' through the junkyard, kickin' the can

Neva would I think I had the world in my hand

17 times, circumnavigate the globe

A traveler’s tradition, my religion is the road

Broke the mold, explored all the options

The quickest way to curate the cash, so I clocked in

On the job, no trainin' wheels

Told my mama I'mma make it cuz I say I will

Till the wheels fall off

Yes yes, y’all, till the beat it don’t stop

Between a rock & a hard place

Came up out the ghetto wit my boys, no Scarface

But is my mind playin' tricks?

If the world is really mine how I ain’t got shit?

Still they stop & they frisk

But it’s neva goin' to change till we stop & resist

(Hook)

Listen, listen, if you want it up

Till the sun is up, then you’re one of us

So listen, listen & start lettin' go

If we’ve had enough, we don’t give a fuck

No more control, no no more

No more control, no no more

(Control, control, control, control)

(Verse 2)

Welcome to the world of drug dealers

Comic books, white girls & real niggas

Skateboards, bandanas, & malt liquor

Japanese cartoons & straight killas

They tell us get out the ghetto & get rich

But when you really a rebel you don’t fit

We all tryin' to find our niche

Got to grab it by the throat & make the world your bitch

It’s the American way

Plug into the drive & let the narrative play

We obsessed wit nothin' but the best shit

Do it on your own or be a drone wit a death wish

Defy definition, repress repetition

Get money, get high, get sex, the addiction

The depression, the stress, the affliction

Get ready, get set, go, we on a mission

(Hook)

(Verse 3)

They had a rally fo' police brutality up at the park

But when we killin' ourselves don’t nobody want to march

We got to start to take a look in the mirror

If we don’t respect ourselves then they always gon' fear us

If black lives matter then black lives matter

And the colour of the killa shouldn’t even be a factor

Most of these rappers ain’t equipped to lead

Cuz most of these rappers illiterate, can’t read

This is educated street music fo' the educated street movement

It’s fucked up what the police is doin'

But muthafucka, look what we doin'

(Hook)
