Blackness (City On My Back Remix) Lyrics by Drew D

Genesis

2017

[Verse]
I can't get tempted by money
I can't greedy with fame
I just need to fight through the pain
I need to stay in my own lane
I know that all this will pay off
So I won't be takin’ a day off
Can't wait for the day when I take off
And people remember my name
Hit the ignition, I'm in the perfect position for switchin’
Lanes into the fast one, passin’ through traffic
These people don't have what it takes, I'm B Rabbit
Losin’ myself in the moment, I crash it
Dashin’ out into the road and I'm mad at
Myself ‘cause I thought that I had what it took
And no rehab will help me back up to the attic
I'm down the basement and no one knows me
No one even knows how cold my flows be
I'm slowly gainin’ power but it's surely slowly
I need to be my own person, no one can mold me
I boldly state what I'm about to do
Take over and change the game how could you
Try to get in my way, I'm just trying to say
That I am feelin’ very empowered to
Convert everyone to the ways of the Lord
And I've said it before but it's our doom
If you don't start actin’ the way that you should then you're going to hell you're a coward who
Can't seem to get the fact that actin’ up after you crash
Is one quick way to your grave, downward you fall
I'm waitin’ for people to open their minds and wake up and I'm countin’ the hours too
A lot my of my nights I just stay awake writin’
Time ticks by nothin's changed, I'm still here fightin’
I look at the future it may be excitin’
But there will be nothing there if I keep hidin’
Just tryna get big and just tryna get noticed
Just tryna gain green, tryna find where my hope is
I hope I don't blow this, I know that I'm great
I just need to show that I'm not hopeless
I just need to cope with my anger
And calm down so I can go fight off the danger
And focus on the things that matter
Be climbin’ the charts like a ladder, a painter
With my words endanger everyone around me
I'll be sleeping soundly in no time at all, I’m profoundly
Wise enough to know you've found something special if you have found me, I’m surrounding
Myself with the people I know will be with me no matter what happens, no matter who doubts me
I know they're not there for my clout, see
I know that they're not gonna drown me
I'm prayin’ to God to keep letting me do this, to let me pursue this
To give me the strength to get through this, I hope I don't lose this
This is my passion, and I will take action on anyone who insists I should stop rappin’
If you're popping now then I'm blastin’ you back without asking
‘Cause I am the captain and you're the Titanic
You're crashin’ so hard and I'm sittin’ there laughin’
‘Cause I'm everlastin’ and I am attackin’
I'm stabbin’ the dagger straight into your heart so welcome to the dark and the vastness, blackness
