[Verse 1]
Look it's six o'clock I'm hopping outta the be
Rain falling calling X but my phone line's dead
I guess my bills ain't paid
No ride to work for the day
Second option, hop the bus but there's a traffic delay
My boss is tripping cause I'm running late and ain't no excuse
When I'm bout to be twenty-two without a whip I could swoop
Feel like I'm finna shoot my own dome with chrome to escape
Zoning out cause working working out ain't worth what I make
My lady calling bugging always fussing just because we ain't balling
But it's hard cause her cousins f**in rich, cause her husband's hustling
And I ain't f**ing touching nothing but a mic
Five o'clock and off work ready to go home and write
But I ain't got a buck to catch the bus chilling at the stop
Rain falling hard as ever and it's soaking my socks
f** it
Kick my kicks off and took off my jacket
Roll my jeans up beat up and my headphones blasting
Blazed some weed up and started laughing
While I'm splashing in puddles like
Muthaf** a struggle we dancing in the rain
[Hook]
Don't nobody wanna dance slow in the rain
Just move your a**, just move your a**
Don't nobody wanna liberate the weight of the pain
Just move your a**, just move your a**
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I hate taking trips to the lab
Got my pen and pad booking instrumentals in smash
Catch the bus regardless
Trying hard to be an artist
But my A&R be calling me out my zone into his office
Being cautious cause he don't want my record to brick
Asking me how he think my projects progressing and sh**
I said cool, but the truth is that I'm stressing to grip
Cause it's hard to make music when this depression exists
They say use it as inspiration & the best of 'em did
Well that's them, see I can't handle this pressure for sh**
And if you ask me stress is a bitich
My girl needs more attention and my record label's desperate for hits
Now I'm pissed cause I'm getting out the zone again
Makes me start to dread when I see a microphone and sh**
It ain't supposed to be like that
I said ill be right back
I left the office got a phone and called my partner Jac
And I asked him "remind me why I'm rappin"
And right before he answered I remembered my pa**ion in the past
When I was scribbling in my tablet
To box out my mom and dad scrappin
To help me when my granmother pa**ed
Plus the many times I was homeless
And the times when I was broke
And the music made a way when I was hopless
He told me to remember the rain it'll diminish the pain
And he told me not to ask him again cause I know
[Hook x2]
Don't nobody wanna liberate the weight of the pain
Just move your a**, just move your a**
Don't nobody wanna
Don't nobody wanna
Don't nobody wanna
Dance - slow - in the - rain
