NOTHIN' AT ALL Lyrics

Ayo

When all the music comin' out is about sex

About get that money by any means

Even if you gots to kill

When it's force fed to you

As something you gots to feel

That shit is all demeaning

Tell me what the fuck is the meaning

I'm tired of seein' fake

I gotta keep it real

Y'all stay spreadin' hate

What a waste of a skill

I'm talkin' truth and love

Y'all talkin' dollar bills

Everybody for sale

That way we'll never build nothin'

(We can't build shit)

Nah, we'll never build nothin'

(We just can't build shit)

We'll never build nothin'

(Nah, we can't build shit like this)

Our music means nothin'

(Yeah)

Our music means nothin'

(Yo)

Nothin' at all

Yo, I've been rappin' since a teen

But what does my vision mean

Wasn't sure if I should risk it all

To start pursuin' dreams

While I'm livin' in reality,

Bills gotta get paid, hourly salary

Workin' through the day

Feel like insanity is creepin' up

I roll the chronic leaf and up I go

To higher heights

Wishin' my music would take flight

Just like the reefer that I roll, the night

Passes and I'm up, insomniac 'cause luck

Is something that I don't believe in

Workin' hard long as I'm breathin' (breathin')

But how can I know

If it's gon' pay off

If it'll all work out

If my career gon' take off

I'll never know unless I try to make it

See, to me these rhymes are sacred

'Gotta keep it real' has been my motto

I could never fake it

There's way too many rappers out

The crap they yap about

Is what I don't pretend to be

Call me the rap centipede

A hundred how I keep it

I can't conceal a secret any longer

Gotta put this work in as I'm growin' stronger

I'm tired of see-

I'm tired of seein' fake

I gotta keep it real

Y'all stay spreadin' hate

What a waste of a skill

I'm talkin' truth and love (yeah)

Y'all talkin' dollar bills (yeah)

Everybody for sale (yeah)

That way we'll never build nothin' (yeah)

(We can't build shit)

Nah, we'll never build nothin'

(We just can't build shit)

We'll never build nothin' (uh-huh)

(Nah, we can't build shit like this)

Our music means nothin' (uh-huh)

Our music means nothin'

Nothin' at all

Cats is rhymin' tryin' to look cool

They aim to be celebrities

I'm tryin' to spit that ill shit

But still with integrity

'Cause if what I'm rappin' 'bout

Contribute to the hate and pain

Then there's no reason for me

To make the music that I'm makin' mayne

These rappers fake and vain

The image all that matters

Kids devour all the crap

About the money, power, status

Livin' just to stack a dollar bill

Livin' a life that'll get 'em killed

Or end up in a prison cell

What, you don't think they listen, well

They do, the mind is always workin'

Children's families is hurtin'

'Cause they songs and daughters caught up

In a life without no order

Feel I ought to quit this music shit

I'm seein' all these dudes abuse it

Quit, I can't, gotta change the game

But first I gotta make a name, and damn

It's hard to keep it real and still instill

Some wisdom in these crazy times

Of madness, hearin' lazy rhymes

About the hoes and clothes

And how we ready to bust at 'em foes

Promotin' this mentality

We ruin our reality y'all

I'm tired of seein' fake

I gotta keep it real

Y'all stay spreadin' hate

What a waste of a skill

I'm talkin' truth and love

Y'all talkin' dollar bills

Everybody for sale

That way we'll never build nothin'

(We can't build shit)

Nah, we'll never build nothin'

(We just can't build shit)

We'll never build nothin'

(Nah, we can't build shit like this)

Our music means nothin'

Our music means nothin'

Nothin' at all

There's no meanin'

We crave it, we fiendin'

For purpose, it's worthless

Infected with them demons

(Greed, lust, anger, hate)

Our music means nothin'

Our music means nothin'

Nothin' at all

There's no meanin'

We crave it, we fiendin'

For that purpose, it's worthless

Infected with them evil demons

(Greed, lust, anger, hate)

Our music means nothin'

Our music means nothin'

Nothin' at all
