Nine 2 Five Lyrics by D. Paul

2020

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I hit 'em with that stuff soundin' like Snow On Tha Bluff
'Cause you watch 'em have a meltdown the second it's heating up
Life's been rough, but I know that imma keep moving
I don't mean to cause a scene, but my life should be movie
I want the lights flashin', get rich and get high fashion
Action packed, but a lot of y'all are just actors actin'
I don't mean to trash 'em, but the jealousy and hate breeds
When they see you made it and they can't relate
But see, I don't even got a dollar to my name, and so I'm tryna figure out how imma go and walk into the game
When no one out hеre knows my name, I'm just chasin' my dreams
And whеn I make it to the top best believe I'm bringin' my team
And I'm tired of hearin' y'all complain of how no label wants to save you
Ask yourself, what have you brought to the table?
Getting you to rhyme should be a crime, get off of my timeline
I don't go to parties when I'm on my independent grind

[Interlude]
You only live once
So do something you feel passionate about
Don't be scared to fail big, to dream big
But remember, dreams without goals
Are just dreams

[Verse 2]
I gotta do these things differently
'Cause this nine to five life isn't built for me
School doesn't interest me, I'd rather spit dope raps
Make it big in the game get rich and never look back
It's like they want me to be, a wage slave my entire life
Wake up to work come back at night, say goodnight to my wife and family? I barely see their faces
We act like distant strangers, we live paycheck to paycheck
Not only that but working for somebody else
Saving up to live in paradise but it's like I'm living in hell
So I'd rather focus on myself, even if it means I sacrifice my wealth
What's more important is my well-being
So I put my energy into what I love, and it was always about the music, not being number one
I make the music that I love I always keep it real
And they want to make me heated but I still give you the chills
They said to not put all your eggs in one basket
Well I did and I'm finna take it straight to my casket
They hatin' cause they see the motivation and the dedication that I got
They know I ain't waitin' for education
I ask myself, would I rather fail at something, or never try it? That's why I was quiet I almost wanted retirement
But I'm back, and having fun boy
Why these rappers flowing like they held at gun point?
