King Space - What You Do It For? lyrics

(Verse One) It took a moment, a single moment to think it over To make or break my life before it even flourished "that's why a rose is still a rose by any other name" So if I look up in your eyes, tell me would you understand Why do I mask my feelings? Why do I need to show 'em? Why did yah take notice? When yah ain't want to listen When I needed some help, was in fetal position Now I could say f** you, I don't need your discretion What was the undertone message? Was never accepted This life that I'm living, substantial conditions Mama cryin' and wishin' for her kids to succeed So we finally plant seeds fruits of her labor But I was blind sided, by a relationship Was like Bobby and Whitney, minus the c**aine No court but subpoena'd, no police but seize(erd) She took everything, except 'LA BAMBA' That means a plane crash, I lost my life But God delivered showed me there was always a light Mama telling me go to school to study a dream But if my chance pa**es by I don't want to resent you In other words mom and dad I don't want to hate I'm only here to make you proud but ain't doing to well If yah don't see me or hear me, I'll turn my words to Braille So if you never catch my dreams, yah basically feel me (Chorus) Telling me that you write What the hell you do it for? Telling me that you sing What the hell you do it for? Telling me that you rap What the hell you do it for? (x3) Is it the: money, cars, the hoes, the clothes The sh** that I cannot afford, I write to make it life I write to make it what I got in mind What I got in mind I write to make it what the f** I have in mind (Verse Two) It took a minute, a single minute to say its over To break my heart with no gander upon a repercussion I tried to change it, but made it worse upon tryna fix it A learned lesson, don't fix what needs fixin' A family should work like algebra, mathematicians Instead of multiplying, y'all practice division Instead of adding up, y'all practice subtraction And then yah wonder why everything's a fatal attraction Not tryna work against yah, just talk to inspire Not tryna be a rebel, but all war needa fighter Not tryba be a nuisance, but all change need a cause Whether it be civil or brutal, I'm not a mongol But I will get my Genghis Khan on, so yah can catch on That we could take the world by storm, if we could make up So let me get my pen out, and let me get my thoughts out Don't be offended, we're starting a revolution! (Chorus) (Bridge) [Harmony section] (Chorus)
