funky dl - retrospect lyrics
verse one
(stupid…), they thought it would be bright lights, red carpets
constantly hitting targets, dominating the markets
leaving rappers for carcass, recording artists
record label departments providing you largest budgets to go the hardest
they thinking first class seats and the legroom
sirloin steak other meats on the menu
and came a long way from the beats in the bedroom
but then they find out the music industry can turn your wishes inside out
drop you in a hole you find impossible to climb out
it’s likе they permanently put you on a timеout
ain’t no way to check on your account when you are signed out
been there done that, had to find a way that worked for me so i could maintain
build my reputation by myself, no need to claim names
wouldn’t have it any other way cos’ when i recollect
everything i’m looking at has been okay in retrospect
chorus
time for looking back (scratch)
retrospect
time for looking back (scratch)
verse two
(here we go yo’) being an independent artist is not glamorous
figure me trying to harness, make everything unanimous
practically have to part with all the money i have
and please don’t get me started, i don’t be in the lab all day every day
i spend days in my inbox
replying messages, i’m tired and my chin drops
and i’m organising data, thinking up these new concepts like a curator
planning these releases, constantly i’m a creator
gotta keep it running like a lively first grader, as well as putting pen to paper
running a label ain’t no fairy+tale fable
putting food on the table, trying to keep this thing stable
but i had to find a way that worked for me so i could maintain
build my reputation by myself, no need to claim names
wouldn’t have it any other way cos’ when i recollect
everything i’m looking at has been okay in retrospect
chorus
time for looking back (scratch)
in retrospect
time for looking back (scratch)
