Green Lyrics by MattGnaw

Brown

2017

[Verse 1]
I'm wondering, "how the fuck you still listening to me?"
Unperfect was alright but let's just leave that to be
It's been awhile since I made a really chill ass beat
My life's been great ever since I made a real ass feat
I decided to make music to express myself
Went through a lot before I picked this album off the shelf
Brown would do a lot of good things for me if it was taken as an art really seriously ( I'm kidding, don't actually take it seriously)
Now I'm making sure that every day is different
Started doing things and liked a girl that liked to dance
Maybe get connected with some people to bring me up front
So I started becoming productive and stopped being lazy
Cut the crap and did the things that I wanted to do
But before I continue, I would like to tell a little story

[Verse 2]
There was a time
My mama said, "just study hard, it'll be just great
You'll have an easy life and not much work
Just office work, it can be done with ease"
But in my head, that doesn't feel fulfilling
I want to do something that I like
I'll work my way up high to start being somebody better than I am now
But then again that wouldn't be such a bad start to make money

[Verse 3]
Now I'm growing up to the tallest of buildings
Still blowing in my head when I see the readings
Moving on quickly so I do no get caught in my feelings
I'm not stopping now, this is the peek of my life
I should stop losing hope in myself
Because maybe I can reach farther than where I stand
But things are changing so I gotta start letting go
I didn't say it was easy to keep on to it
But the struggle would be worth it if I manage to do it
All those things I faced held me back, but I got up
I didn't leave myself in distress when I was down
I knew that nothing could even save me from myself
I, said it back then that everything would be fine and
Look at me now, I'm doing just fine
See, brown's about to come out but not in a gay way
It'll be different and filled with a lot to portray
