M.C. Logic - The Listener lyrics

It's a quarter to midnight I'm smokin' on get right I'm thinkin' bout sh** like I'm so sick of this life I mean I aint complainin' Yeah joe I'm maintainin' But still stayin' stagnant man things aint changin' I start gettin' lazy end up wait gainin' But now I'm in the gym every other day trainin' Try'na get in shape Get ready for the way in Make songs that's bangin' Just for yall entertainment This is night music What chu gon do with your life music Some inspirational It's gon be aight music Encouraging words Tellin' you to fight through it You know that I always come through with the fly new sh** I wrote this in my Fusion Usually write it in my journal Hope I don't tarnish my legacy like Coach Joe Paterno I wanna live eternal and pray the world remember me So allow me to say thank you for listening Listen up I wrote this specifically for listeners Slave to the rhythm so you kinda like a prisoner The music set you free when you listen to me I said the music set you free when you listen to me Listen up I wrote this specifically for listeners Slave to the rhythm so you kinda like a prisoner The music set you free when you listen to me I said the music set you free when you listen to me When I write a rhyme I try to keep the listener in mind Also do it for myself at the same damn time It's a challenge to balance But you know I rock steady Worlds weighed on my shoulder God damn this rock heavy Rhymes I got plenty That's why God sent me Paint pictures with words Sometimes it's not pretty But it engages forcin' you to rock with me I aint a pioneer but I'll make the top 50 Possibly, I don't know I can't predict the future So I'ma keep makin' music on my computer Mix it down and distribute it to the ma**es It might take a couple listens before you grasp it Listen up I wrote this specifically for listeners Slave to the rhythm so you kinda like a prisoner The music set you free when you listen to me I said the music set you free when you listen to me I been listenin' Ever since my Christenin' in Michigan Chillin on the porch with my cousins and my sister and nem Kick snares melodies Skytzo just blends it in Words fit the beat perfect like I was kin to him If I gave the minimum yall wouldn't give a damn That's why when I make a jam LOGIC go ham I always knew that I would be a musician I got the talent now I just need you to listen Listen up I wrote this specifically for listeners Slave to the rhythm so you kinda like a prisoner The music set you free when you listen to me I said the music set you free when you listen to me Listen up I wrote this specifically for listeners Slave to the rhythm so you kinda like a prisoner The music set you free when you listen to me I said the music set you free when you listen to me Listen up I wrote this specifically for listeners Slave to the rhythm so you kinda like a prisoner The music set you free when you listen to me I said the music set you free when you listen to me
