Clint Ford - The Calm lyrics

[Intro] Uh, yeah Henrī Lyrical, lyrical genius Team 2E Dang [Verse 1] I'm sitting in my room focused, eyes open I feel like Jonah, haven't slept in 40 nights Cause 40 days I'm in the booth Rapping sonnets But you should hear me, I'm k**ing it I'm shooting verse at my microphone like it's bullet proof Feeling biblical cause I'm speaking truths, about my life Young black male lacking confidence, boy it's obvious Negativity is in my ambiance I seek attention, where's my audience I do this music cause it's therapeutic to my soul It's a drug, if I can't use it, I lose it Can't pay for therapy, so I write the pain on the paper Poetry I'm an artist, I paint these vivid pictures through my mind to the microphone Pica**o And I'm a genius with my craft, Aristotle I'm trying to show you the beauty in my music, like it's a model No poppin' bottles, I'm staying sober, until it's done I clearly wanna see my victory for when it's over Cause when it's over, back to square one starting over [Bridge] Mamma always told me be the bigger man Stop playing all these games and start thinking of a plan Let them haters talk, they will never understand Cause it's the calm before the storm [x2] [Chorus] The calm before the story boy Mama told me this the calm before the storm [x4] [Verse 2] I feel I'm in the matrix, and life's a dream Cause my reality is music to me, so I'm I'm the chosen one, here to wake you from this nightmare Music's dying, because of rappers They need to wake up, pop the red pill Instead of popping mollies need to pop some knowledge Picking Jordans over college They have the power through the music, to rule the nation But dollar bills breaking concentration I had a revelation, I need to blow up Detonation, so I can teach y'all just like a prophet While making profit, show you how it's done and take you higher Like in the co*kpit, I'm sayin' Mamma told me, greatness is inside of me I need to tell the world my name boy, Henrī Let them haters bob they heads all in unity Dang greatness has arrived, team 2E [Bridge] [Chorus]
