Cooarri - For My People lyrics

[Bridge] Tell me why, tell me why I've been up for three days Tell me why, tell me why nothing feels the same way Tell me why, tell me why I've been doing okay Tell me why, tell me why, yeah [Verse 1] They said that you were gone, you were out of town You never called and I stopped seeing you around I got a message from a friend who said you recollected But I perfected acting like I even feel affected My intention is the opposite of your direction 'Cause I ain't sittin' here waitin' on a chance to get 'em For anybody who has doubted me, I let 'em go I feel the light shine now it's got a vivid glow Some people call it faith and maybe you call it hope I say you run the show, the only one with full control Surround yourself with only those who wanna see you grow Follow the open road until you find your soul Along the way you cope Allow yourself to breathe The door is open, you just gotta find the strength to leave In you I do believe But I need you to see the view from here where we can both disappear [Hook] This is one time for my people on the floor This is two times for my people feelin' low And hit me three times for my people in the club Tryna' have a good night now Don't throw it up Sayin' this is one time for my people on the floor This is two times for my people feelin' low And hit me three times for my people in the clouds Tryna' have a good night now Don't roll it up sayin' [Verse 2] Who the tightest up in here? Who the tightest up in here? I don't really give a f** about the tightest up in here I'm just here to rock a mic Share a stage with all my peers Tell me what do we have left if comradery disappears? It's a given, a test, so I'm ‘bout to give my best They be lookin' to my left like where your homie [?] But most things, they changin', that's the only constant Success is like a bank, you will get what you deposit Be accountable for loss and stay focused on the profit I'm climbin' from the bottom still learnin' how to top it And sometimes I topple down but I'm never givin' up If I could get up one more time from this sh** I had enough Dried your eyes so many nights, I hope this pillowcase is But think about the time you wasted on feeling sorry for yourself and face it Only you can change this [?] the delegations and [?] your dedications [Hook] This is one time for my people on the floor This is two times for my people feelin' low And hit me three times for my people in the club Tryna' have a good night now Don't throw it up Sayin' this is one time for my people on the floor This is two times for my people feelin' low And hit me three times for my people in the clouds Tryna' have a good night now Don't roll it up sayin' [Bridge] Tell me why, tell me why I've been up for three days Tell me why, tell me why nothing feels the same way Tell me why, tell me why I've been doing okay Tell me why, tell me why, yeah [Verse 3] Tell me why there ain't no rest for the wicked Lord know I never sleep, I be worried ‘bout my business Momma said she had a vision I could see it in the distance I'mma make a difference, that's the point of my existence Now before I exit, I want you all to listen Every moment breathin' is a motherf**in' blessing When your faith is gettin' tested and your heart is feelin' restless Either you regret, or you take it as a lesson sayin' [Hook] This is one time for my people on the floor This is two times for my people feelin' low And hit me three times for my people in the club Tryna' have a good night now Don't throw it up Sayin' this is one time for my people on the floor This is two times for my people feelin' low And hit me three times for my people in the clouds Tryna' have a good night now Don't roll it up sayin'
