Rotimi - Darkest Before Dawn: Short Film (Script) lyrics

NOT FINISHED SCRIBING! G.O.O.D. Music angel logo fades in and out. Opening credits fade in and out as scenes play, reading: "G.O.O.D. MUSIC PRESENTS. A FILM BY: KID ART. PUSHA T. ROTIMI, NATALYA RUDAKOVA. GEORGE KATT, JOE, GIOCO, MIKE TROLL" Blue lightning flashes. CUT TO: Lamp flashes in a dark orange room. PUSH lays on the carpet. He walks up the walls. PUSH and the PRIEST narrate elsewhere PRIEST: Nightmares again? PUSH: Yeah. PRIEST: Same one? PUSH: Same one. CUT TO TEXT: KING PUSH. DARKEST BEFORE DAWN. Thunder rumbles. CUT TO: HIDEOUT CUT TO TEXT: PRODUCED BY GRANT CURATOLA CUT TO: HIDEOUT CUT TO: television scene that displays lions. TV: At a striking distance, the movement that crossed its natural boundary. See them lose their confidence and abandon pursuits. CUT TO TEXT: "EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS JEAN MOUGIN, SEVEN VICTOR, SHIVAM PANDYA. CO PRODUCERS CARTIER COURT, TAYLOR SHUNG. WRITTEN BY CARTIER COURT." Storm rumbles. "DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPH: J.J. RICHARDS" TV:[?] they all begin to reunite PUSH and MANNY count hundred bills as ACE watches TV. TV displays a lion close-up. MANNY: (Tsk) Yo man, put the game on, man! Throwing my countin' off with all this giraffe sh**, man. On the screen, two lion cubs fight. "PRODUCTION DESIGNER DANICA PANTIC". A lion cub chases and bites down a bull. "EDITED BY KID ART". PUSH mutters numbers to himself. Thunder rumbles. MANNY: Do you not hear me, muthaf**a? Oh, oh okay. So I got to go talk to...(laughs) this n***a...So I got to talk to Felicia to make sure you listen to me so you, you know, since she basically tells you- ACE: Shut the f** up, yo. Shut the f** up...about Felicia... MANNY: Whatchu mean? You know I gotta get you guys to listen to me, you won't ever listen to me. ACE: You know where the joints at, huh? MANNY: I got joints. ACE: You ain't got no joints. MANNY: I got no joints? ACE: They not messing with you like that right now. MANNY: So some Maria bodies for me? ACE: No, Maria light-skinned. Way back then, she was... PUSH laughs and looks at screen. Screen displays two lion cubs pinning a goat. MANNY: Leave them lions alone. Make yourself useful. ACE: I'm watching some information MANNY: sh**, information n***a? Ha! This n***a, you watching the same sh** three times in a row, bruh ACE: I'm learnin' somethin', I'm learnin' somethin' (Points at own head) MANNY: You learnin' somethin'? ACE: If you get up out the house, maybe you can learn something. MANNY: Yo, ok. Alright. Feliiica! Felica! ACE: Mutters something and shakes head' MANNY: You really salty. Feliii- Sirens wail. MANNY, ACE, and PUSH get up and run. Cut to ACE running upstairs. "DIRECTED BY KID ART". Cut to a siren on the ground. Radio sounds. Someone kicks the siren.
