YONAS - This Goes Out To You lyrics

[VERSE 1] Check it, aye yo This right here is, this is honestly the jam To make them all say YONAS is honestly the man On my Ferris Bueller sh**, school was never in the plan Because what I got is special like a j**el in the sand Make a move where they can slam Rappers like to pretend I always keep a girl that’s why they like me to win And who would’ve ever thought that my life would ever begin By inspiring the world through the strike of a pen So I got to thank the fans because they made me who I am First, they showed me how to fall Then they taught me how to stand I just got to be myself, and they all understand Like an Aloe Blacc song I’m the man, I’m the man (Ha ha) I took a theory and I turned it into fact You took a couple rock songs and turned them into rap You all liked it better because I gave it what it lacked Had some fun with it and then I gave it back So this is for you [Chorus] This goes out to you (x3) You were there when no one was around This goes out to you (x3) You were there when no one was around [VERSE 2] Now I don’t have a corny name for my fan base But they still love me because I’m something you can’t hate Plus I draw what these other dudes can’t trace Out of this world you’re better off trying to scan space A bed of nails, ain’t no sleeping on the kid I don’t usually smoke, but now I’m chiefing on the clear It’s never easy to cope when the reason you exist is to carry the torch My n***as reaching for this sh** But I got it Nope, I’m not a novice I know I’m an artist And also a product And I got friends that look like Mike Brown But I got some friends that live in white towns So I try to find a way to stay cool But somehow I always manage to break rules And if I ever lied on a record, lord let me die today (Huh) And by the way, I do this for you [Chorus] [VERSE 3] This is for any being being creative I thank you for the things that you have created Even if it seems that we ain’t related You’re the reason I ever had dreams of being the greatest I could rush to the finish but sh** is better patient Feeling like I’m minutes from a celebration Pour champagne gla** leaving demons in the past One toast for success, another toast to make it last [Chorus]
