I Didn’t Expect This Lyrics by Reelistik

I Didn’t Expect This

2018

I was told that I would never make it
I was told that I’ll never have a chance and…
I was told that I’m just hallucinating
I was told my that my passion was mistaken
That I shouldn’t chase my dreams because it ain’t for me
Was told that I had no worth because I am just an emcee
Was told that making these raps would make me a geek
I see you got hatred in you, but pardon me, please!
Please! Be mindful that I make this music for me
I do whatever I want whether or not you agree
I don’t think I need your opinion to just be me
I think I’ma eat till I permanently fall asleep
Yeah!
I can promise you that there’s nothing that can stop me
I can promise you that there ain’t no hater above me
I can promise you that I’ll make it by next year
When it comes to this music I put my blood, sweat, and tears…
...into this!
No love for the haters, but my haters love me
So much love for my last song, lovely
Shout out to the Realistic army
1 million streams in a week, we
Are making our way to the top and for me…
...I’ll shut the haters out who talk about me
I’ll shut the fake people out who talk about me
I don’t need this because all my life I was called fat and ugly!
I wasn’t lying when I said I didn’t need you
You dissed me, oh my, now everyone wanna be you
You been lying since day one now nobody can read you
Stop eating off of me, ain’t nobody trynna feed you
How you gonna be successful if you don’t even try
I’m probably working while you go smoke and get high
You plan for those drugs, I plan for my life
You crash on the couch, I be up all night
On my craft, writing all these raps
Writing my life on the map
Writing how I feel and that’s that
Putting forth the effort to the Max
Yeah, these rappers are wiggidy, wiggidy, wiggidy, wiggidy wack
Iffy….to hear what comes after that
I feel like I’m gonna blow up fast
All my hard work will pay off and that's facts
Yeah!
I know better, my minds clearer
There’s not a single thing that I should fear or...
O-O-Overthink, I don’t need perfection
I’m not ashamed of my mistakes, they all happen
Yeah-yeah-yeah, they all happen
I’m circumspect with the talent I’m given
With the talent I’m given, but can a single person do what they love without getting judged? Good riddance!
I just question the abilities of a human
I question the intentions of man
I question the world we live in
I question the whole government
I just got 1 million streams
(I Didn’t Expect This!)
Haters are mad, but they love me
(I Didn’t Expect This!)
You ain’t do enough to amaze me
(I Didn’t Expect This!)
Now I’m considered mainstream
(I Didn’t Expect This!)
I Didn’t Expect This!
I Didn’t Expect This!
I Didn’t Expect This!
I Didn’t Expect This!
I Didn’t Expect This!
I Didn’t Expect This!
I Didn’t Expect This!
I Didn’t Expect This!
Got em...
