CASH L3WIS - Listen To Me lyrics

[Intro: Avonlea Montague] I'm going going gone... [Verse 1: CASH L3WIS] Today I'm feelin' alright, The last couple a years I haven't slept right I'd lay & toss & turn until I felt the break of daylight But last night I was finally able to sleep Without the help of any type of sleeping pill I could eat I guess depression had a tighter grip than I could believe Like Take a seat L3WIS, I'm here to demolish all your dreams As it seemed to drag me, more rapidly to my knees I began to imagine I had the strength that I need My insomnia disappeared in a full retreat I saw the mic, picked it up and I began to speak & now I'm addicted again and not restricted from winnin' Might'a had a mishap or two in the begginin' but now I've risen From the dead & I'm not gunna stop, full steam ahead Even if I'm goin' seventy five & the light is red I'm a get 'em, split 'em into pieces when I hit 'em With every non-punchline rhyme that I have written [Chorus: Avonlea Montague/CASH L3WIS] I'm going going gone Lost in a song Nobody can hear me It's been too long (You Better) Listen to me! Can you hear me? Listen to me! Is anybody there? Listen to me! Can you hear me? (You better) Listen to me! (X3) [Verse 2: CASH L3WIS] Nowadays ignorance among the young ones Is ridiculously on the rise, so I - deliver lyrics remedial Feeble little wannabe lyricists wishin' there written's Were strong enough & conditioned for recognition LISTEN! - fear not, for I'm the definition Positioning my pen, perfect for demolition My acquisition of literacy alters my disposition Causin' a sea of people to flee in disbelief It's gotta be, flow under lock & key NO-body, shy of God can write as hot as me What I see is a talent deficiency among my peers & you people feed into it like its all you dummies hear It's all you dummies here, in the crowd as you cheer For untalented groups, without a musical ear I fear - the politics surrounding music now Make it impossible to produce sound [Chorus: Avonlea Montague/CASH L3WIS] I'm going going gone Lost in a song Nobody can hear me It's been too long (You Better) Listen to me! Can you hear me? Listen to me! Is anybody there? Listen to me! Can you hear me? (You better) Listen to me! (X3) [Verse 3: CASH L3WIS] When anybody has a talent, why does any and everybody Upon the planet, take it all for granted? Can't stand it! They fail to see the male in me Like my balls defy gravity & retract inside of me A lie would be born if I continued happily Actin' as if I wasn't affected by tragedy & pa**ively Walked around in the basement writing on the walls Stumbling by candle light & never saw the sun at all Maybe then you wouldn't hear my mind echoing Over these musical compositions we're calling instrumentals Fundamental rap is what this pen'll write With articulation intertwined deeply into what I recite Day & night ya pencil in pa**ages average & fiery desire inside of you flames after this I'm a "me is free to speak" activist When I please & I practice what I preach, so follow me
