john hill - paper plane lyrics
[chorus]:
we know the price of everything and the value of nothin’
i made somethin’ from nothin’
man i listen with my ears, i believe with my eyes
this my paper plane i’mma see if it flies
[verse one]:
i don’t wanna write no more
i’m never right no more
what you writin’ for? to write a score?
i don’t know who’s losin’, who’s ahead
the records you choose and why you misled
i know cats that’s focused
this rap sh-t hopeless
man, i’m focused like a ford car
i ain’t drove a foreign car
but i’m a born star
man, my presence in the present, a present a gift
yeah i’m a peasant, pocket empty your sh-t
could coins and it sound like change
i coin phrases and my sound came
you douse my flames?
man you wish i’m retirin’
i don’t rhyme so these hoes get attached
like a hose to fire hydrant
i don’t care if you pull hoes
i got a flare for the dramatics and i’m at it like pool hoes
it’s for them jobs you make more out the back door
i ain’t got a hit but got sh-t they come back for
[chorus]:
you know the price of everything and the value of nothin’
i made somethin’ from nothin’
man i listen with my ears, i believe with my eyes
this my paper plane i’mma see if it flies
you know the price of everything and the value of nothin’
i made somethin’ from nothin’
man i listen with my ears, i believe with my eyes
this my paper plane i’mma see if it flies
[verse two]:
and i’mma eat less, feed more
either or
man, i learned you can talk less and speak more
cause even god’s word ain’t louder than actions
that’s why we stay talkin’ to god if we ain’t proud of our actions
i’ve seen addiction take a man from his job
moved into my brothers, i shared a cover with moms
my pops 12 stepping never treated him better
hold my old man’s hand at the treatment center
i got you pops
but look you got to stop
man, he relapse that same year
man, you think it’s hard to say goodbye, the same here
mom had the same fears
broken home, broke alone
she cried the same tears
dear dad, say cheers
i used to say “our father” till our father didn’t stay here
man, these cats think i broke out my sh-ll
nah, listen man, i just broke out of h-ll
[chorus]:
you know the price of everything and the value of nothin’
i made somethin’ from nothin’
man i listen with my ears, i believe with my eyes
this my paper plane i’mma see if it flies
you know the price of everything and the value of nothin’
i made somethin’ from nothin’
man i listen with my ears, i believe with my eyes
this my paper plane i’mma see if it flies
[verse three]:
man, you wonder what i write for
my momma grippin’ her hand
momma grippin’ for life, in that psych ward
no life to fight for
it ain’t shockin’ she was there for me
my mother suffered shock therapy
and before that, the religious record with the needle on it
clear liquor, door shut, kids beatin’ on it
that’s what the past supports
addicts mad at the lord, ask for more
ain’t never answered like a cancer cure
man, they die within’
there’s long lines of them
tons of problems and nothin’ for solvin’ them
blood line, revolver man, throw the towel again
these drugs furnishing pockets just like an ottoman
i knew a lot of men
oh yeah, the ballin’ sort
they hard as fallen courts and keep soft to snort
man, they lead us to them talks with the lit ‘rillo
how your patna ? too close to his kids pillow
[chorus]:
you know the price of everything and the value of nothin’
i made somethin’ from nothin’
man i listen with my ears, i believe with my eyes
this my paper plane i’mma see if it flies
you know the price of everything and the value of nothin’
i made somethin’ from nothin’
man i listen with my ears, i believe with my eyes
this my paper plane i’mma see if it flies
