Lew Salem - Thunderhead lyrics

(Verse 1) I think I always knew I'd end up doing music Two years of groomin' and I'm still not fully bloomin' It took five f**in' years for a n***a to get his bachelors; If I put in one more, I'll be 24 with a Masters Most n***as ain't even this educated Let alone these struggle rappers; still no guarantees I make it I heard stories of cut throats like finger gestures My inner Ripper sleep; I think it's time for me to wake it! To many people that blew up and don't deserve it With too many that deserve it, too lazy to put the work in Too many wanna leave the city for the limelight! Too in a hurry; no patience for when the time right! I''m so close to the mission, like I'm in Old Town And when I get it, best believe I'll show the bros how! I hear the crowd so loud; shows sold out I see it in my cards, dawg, how could I fold now! (Verse 2) If d**h call my number, I pray he run out of minutes And if he try to pay a visit, he don't reach the city limits I got: So much work to do I'm never finished Wanna make sure that my family's funds never diminished Stress on the brain like subdural hematomas Mama prayin' I get sober ‘fore I end up in a coma This days, my mental sicker than the Joker's with Ebola It's cause, I ain't got chips: I carry boulders on these shoulders Damn, lately a n***a been feeling stressed out Money getting tight, tryna make these dollars stretch out! I'm so hungry, you would think a n***a fresh out Down to bare bones, hope this rap sh** flesh out! I've been living life secluded; I'm used to the isolation Working to grow my music from a hobby to an occupation “Grammy nominated” my future denomination On an interstellar mission to die in the constellations (Verse 3) Okay, I'm switching up the subject How I got these n***as tripping? I ain't even pull the rug yet 2017: Give me the rock to pull the upset Like Bo in '82, I bet they'll feel it like a gut check Unless you helpin' me grow, we can't a**ociate Your moment might have pa**ed you, but I'm here for mine with open gates Can't overstate the importance of settin' goals today Don't hold your breath for me to fade, you gon' suffocate This year I'm coming with the Thunder Boy I wonder what they'll do when I back it up with the numbers Like the Kids Next Door; I'mma stun ‘em with the come up And I'm only getting warmer, Escondido in the summer Hold on what the f** is you smilin' for? Foolish mortals, this isn't even my final form Sick of the talkin', I told the boys that it's time for war Push my sword above your C4, sever your spinal cord Medically speakin' that's just enough For you to live to tell the tale of the hazards of acting tough Live to tell the tale of the ThunderKlan and its glory And the gory endin' to your shortened story: To be continued…
