Athenaeum Lyrics by MC Wave

0

[Chorus]
Yeah, writing got me blocked off like a defensive back
I’m tryna go for the touchdown, win this crowd cause this my sound
But Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more money
Maybe it’s me being rusty
I said, writing got me blocked off like a defensive back
I’m tryna go for the touchdown, win this crowd cause this my sound
But Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more money
Maybe it’s me being rusty

[Verse 1]
Flexed up on my biz, now when you look him up you’ll see me on google
I got my own pagе, I started my own wave
Got tired of thе same old life so I told myself, I’d switch it up
Twenty fifteen came around the lyrical armory was so empty, I hadda fill it up with stuff
Yeah shit wasn’t easy, I hadda dig and fig so deeply
2016, I went ghost swear on god they couldn’t see me or be me
Since I was way too hype for them jocks, nigga was so bright from the light he made those girls take off their top
Rather remain silent from those ops

[Refrain]
Well if practice makes perfect then why the hell is it meant nothing when one is hatin?
Makes me wonder if they had any training
All this work in the basement has me aching my face shit
I’m tired in all of my days but this means I need more rest
But that is so funny cause I’m in the library studying on ways to be more constructive productive

[Chorus]
Yeah, writing got me blocked off like a defensive back
I’m tryna go for the touchdown, win this crowd cause this my sound
But Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more money
Maybe it’s me being rusty
I said, writing got me blocked off like a defensive back
I’m tryna go for the touchdown, win this crowd cause this my sound
But Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more money
Maybe it’s me being rusty

[Verse 2]
Twenty seventeen wasn’t it, that was the year when everything went downhill
Went from being assaulted to being a psycho
Needed a break, I told all of my teachers to put me in classes attendance was short
It was a help but attention wasn’t short, the hate was still strong
I’m feeling the envy from miles away, my music’s progression was showing depleted
Hit the cntrl then alt then delete
I didn’t want stress, I didn’t want beef but this was one of the signs of defeat
I do not lie and I do not cheat
Fast foward twenty eighteen, the boy isn’t feeling that lean
Yeah lean to the subject , keen to the bullshit and obscene to the nonsense

[Refrain]
Well if practice makes perfect then why the hell is it meant nothing when one is hatin?
Makes me wonder if they had any training
All this work in the basement has me aching my face shit
I’m tired in all of my days but this means I need more rest
But that is so funny cause I’m in the library studying on ways to be more constructive productive

[Chorus]
Yeah, writing got me blocked off like a defensive back
I’m tryna go for the touchdown, win this crowd cause this my sound
But Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more money
Maybe it’s me being rusty
I said, writing got me blocked off like a defensive back
I’m tryna go for the touchdown, win this crowd cause this my sound
But Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more study
Maybe I need more money
Maybe it’s me being rusty
