Zi - Music Makes Me lyrics

[Verse 1: Zi] March 24th I just turned 25 A little tired but I'm feeling blessed to be alive I put my heart in this music mother f**ers don't realize See one time I sang a song in the studio and almost cried Didn't have the balls to release it but I swear to God I'm not the type of rapper who sing it but don't live it And maybe you don't like it but you can't tell me that you don't feel it This got me thinking 'bout all the pain and anger microphones witness With all the dust biting and the f**ing with the wrong b**hes So I may not be that prolific But every one of my songs are a stories with pictures feelings and everything that goes with it And everybody claims to be so different But all I hear is empty words on a hot beat no purpose no mission [Chorus: Zi] The pa**ion is deep and these words are real see I take my time wanna make sure that you feel me And if I can't do this anymore just k** me I just hope that by then I'll have a lil' me The pa**ion is deep and these words are real see I take my time wanna make sure that you feel me And if I can't do this anymore just k** me I just hope that by then I'll have a lil' me [Verse 2: Zi] It s**s feeling f**ed when you're stuck in traffic on a highway See all I do is peddle I'm a rebel wanna make it my way But Lord knows it's not an easy thing We spend so much time trying to make it through the day How can we build a better future Feeling like gorillas in a Mini Cooper And frustration is a feeling that you never get used to Everyday's a battle better be a good trooper If ambition was a drug I'd be a drug addict Too much in my system fall get up and I'm back at it I can't accept defeat call it a bad habit But still I won't cheat too afraid of backlashes Unable to provide do you know how this feels 'Cause see nobody wants to be the fifth wheel Try to stop me you'll join the dead bugs on my windshield [Chorus: Zi] The pa**ion is deep and these words are real see I take my time wanna make sure that you feel me And if I can't do this anymore just k** me I just hope that by then I'll have a lil' me The pa**ion is deep and these words are real see I take my time wanna make sure that you feel me And if I can't do this anymore just k** me I just hope that by then I'll have a lil' me [Verse 3: Zi] We use to record on ca**ettes in the basement And talk about how we gon' blow up and make a statement A head full of dreams you should've seen our faces See music made me more than I will ever make it Almost dropped out of school over that sh** Thank God I wasn't a fool even back then 'Cause if you got the sk**s but not the tools man you ain't sh** You gotta know how to move plus you're only good as your last hit Fast forward to today a lot of people gave up Lost along the way and dropped the pen and paper Some blamed it on the game and became haters For you I will pray and hope to see you later Others got older settled down and had kids Telling me I gotta a family to feed I got no time for this rap sh** [Chorus: Zi] The pa**ion is deep and these words are real see I take my time wanna make sure that you feel me And if I can't do this anymore just k** me I just hope that by then I'll have a lil' me The pa**ion is deep and these words are real see I take my time wanna make sure that you feel me And if I can't do this anymore just k** me I just hope that by then I'll have a lil' me
