Note to Self Lyrics by Apollo Bebop

Still Learnin’

0

Said no to drugs, and no to alcohol
Said no to school, dropped out back in the fall
I prolly could have finished
But I didn't
I mean my heart just wasn't in it
And if you're ain't doing things with gusto
Then you're in trouble
Like uh oh
You like my show, to be a dumbo
And if your mind is stuck inside a Stuck-O
Maybe you should mix things up like it's gumbo
And trust your guts so
You can try and burst out of that bubble
Sooner the better, suggest you do it on the double
Cuz the faster you can figure out the puzzle
The faster you'd succeed, alright bucko?

Yo, and in addition to your hustle
It's gonna take a lil' bit of luck so
Be patient, and stay humble
Cuz nothing great
Happens in a day
Takes a couple

But, in the event that I forget
What my goal is, and what I defined as success
I wrote this, to remind myself that
In the event I go astray
And need a compass so I can find my way
I wrote this, to remind myself that

Nothing in life, fulfills my soul
Quite like music
(So I'mma keep on making this shit, cuz)
Nothing in life, fulfills my soul
Quite like music
(So I'mma keep on making this shit)

I'm just a rap vocalist
Flow as a jazz soloist
That's why I applied to snag the last opening
To be the M.C. of Apollo Bebop
Get the crowd bouncing like Reeboks
And keep it hot like teapots
Mama says she likes to "yass" with the "heep" "haap"
She's got an accent
That's just the way that she talks
In this game, thinking of the rare words we got
Goes and rise above and reach up to the treetops
The C-spots, higher than we nosebleed, see swatch
That's why we come correct the second that the beat drops
We love putting the work in, only the fresher we serve it
Cuz all these so-called top-shelf rappers need to be restocked
They only got a shelf life of like four days
Career would die faster than I'll ever die of old age
And selling out is not an option, no way, José
We're in this for the long run, who cares if it's slow paced

But, in the event that I forget
What my goal is, and what I defined as success
I wrote this, to remind myself that
In the event I go astray
And need a compass so I can find my way
I wrote this, to remind myself that

Nothing in life, fulfills my soul
Quite like music
(So I'mma keep on making this shit, cuz)
Nothing in life, fulfills my soul
Quite like music
(So I'mma keep on making this shit)

To the next level, we're taking it taking it
Cuz all lives has been under us making it, making
So we're gonna keep on making this making this here
To the next level, we're taking it taking it
Cuz all lives has been under us making it, making
So we're gonna keep on making this making this here
