ayomiro. - first impression lyrics
verse 1:
where am i going? the signs are not showin’
i’m a car that’s going nowhere fast, but still glowin’
this little light of mine, i try to bowl it
so self-conscious, i don’t want to extol it
never been afraid, but i am my own opponent
every night’s another long episode of conan
thoughts tall and terrifying like trees in a forest
so i drown the demons with a daily dose of doris
why am i here? that’s another great question
if life’s a road, then i’m single-day steppin’
i get drunk off the past, and high off the present
‘cause the future is the pill that my body’s rejectin’
kept this method of thinking since an adolescent
and it’s still keepin’ me alive as a college freshman
keep it moving forward, never asking questions
and maybe, one day, i’ll be cash-cow checkin’
what motivates me? make sure that no one hates me
even though i know that one day they will replace me
even though i know that it’s respect i should be chasing
there’s too many strong bridges that shouldn’t be breaking
from the jump, i’ve always been self-effacing
wishing for death, ‘cause my cheeks are red when you praise me
i know that your image of me
is who i want to be, word to donny
hook:
first impression. (what should i grow up to be?)
first impression. (in the mirror, who should i see?)
first impression. (what do you first see in me?)
tonight, i’m gon’ have a little personal talk with me
verse 2:
who am i? well, first of all, a cynist
momma always tellin’ me i should think different
am i my religion, defining the decrypted
call the others wicked, just for how they’re livin’?
am i my pigment? young, black, and ignant
and nearer to death than society predicted
am i just the loner boy, never been a stoner, boy
always settle debts like he’s death, not a loaner boy?
what makes a yomi? some would say his wits
some would say his inability to call it quits
some would say that he acts like a gentleman
a good friend, bible scholar, a veteran
anything you do, he just happens to be better than
you, or even just a victim of this rhetoric
is he the exception or the measuring stick
hard to define, unlike a fantasy fl!ck
why does he spit? why don’t he utilize his gift
to write lines about the divine inside of skits?
why don’t he ever use his mind to devise a script
to save the whole world from its own apocalypse?
how ominous, personality nondescript
just another young n-gga on the tightrope tip
walking on the waves until the sunset’s eclipse
just hoping one day that he don’t slip
hook:
first impression. (what should i grow up to be?)
first impression. (in the mirror, who should i see?)
first impression. (what do you first see in me?)
tonight, i’m gon’ have a little personal talk with me
