jon connor - 25 to life lyrics
[intro]
cannon
[chorus: lia mack & jon connor]
too late
for the other side
caught in a chase
25 to life
too late
for the other side
caught in a chase
25 to life
too late, yeah
i guess i asked for this, right?
i mean, that’s what they say, caught in a chase
25 to life
[verse 1: jon conner]
uh cannon
i pretend like i don’t hurt but y’all don’t know my pain
it’s like, over the years you just get numb, this sh-t is novocaine
they like, “connor, why you ain’t rich?” man, y’all don’t know the game
it ain’t all about rappin’ and your talent, that’s what they don’t explain
i get called connor so much that i don’t know my name
i get called connor so much i wanna blow my brains
just to have someone who can relate go talk to kurt cobain
then i sit back and think of james and i get so ashamed
before i can gather all my thought’s i’m right back on a plane
starin’ out the window in the clouds like, “here we go again”
the world expects me deliver hail, sleet, snow or rain
so my heart bleeds through this pen like i broke a vein
all i talk about now is music, all i know is this
my closest friend say it seems like sometime i’m emotionless
i think it started when i saw my cousin lie there motionless
ain’t have time to deal with it so i never got over it
i just went back to rhymin’, back to the studio, business as usual
all the while i’m thinkin’, “what the f-ck do i do this for?”
for the haters that berate you even though you never met ’em
that wanna see you fail, that’ll k!ll your spirit if you let ’em, what?
do it for the the doubters that’ll doubt you when they know nothin’ about you
hope they can find your weakness so they can bring it out you
nah, i don’t do it for my enemies or the industry
i do it for the memories of those i love and lettin’ ’em know how much they
meant to me, yeah
[chorus: lia mack]
too late
for the other side
caught in a chase
25 to life
too late
for the other side
caught in a chase
25 to life
[verse 2: jon conner]
yeah
for real i be like, “who do i tell this when i’m feeling helpless?”
don’t wanna burden n0body with my problems, that’d be selfish
i see people with genuine smiles and then i get jealous
a prisoner of p-ssion, inside my mind’s where jail is
remember sav told me, “oh, you think they hate you now?
in this business people build you up just to break you down
they’ll wait ’til you gone” “why, i can’t get that thank you now?”
“the attention that you crave will be the same sh-t that’ll take you down
we saw whitney strugglin’ and did we offer to help her? no
we made her a trendin’ topic and just watched her on the tv show
p-ssin’ judgement with no repercussion, so easy though
y’all can do all the tributes you want, but she ain’t here no more
what we doin’? misery and pain is televised and we just tune in like
what? ’cause you do music you ain’t human, that sh-t is stupid
i saw amber rose cryin’ on mtv and i just watched like
“d-mn, this entertainment? how far we go before it stop?”
your relationship end and i’m sure you want your sp-ce
they relationship end, the cameras shoved all in they face
ain’t no asking’ for comp-ssion, ’cause your words would go to waste
all the money that they give you don’t compare to what they take
look, michael gave his whole life, that ain’t an exaggeration
how’d we thank him for it? with tabloids and accusations
i done done too much to ever turn from this direction
ain’t sh-t i can do to change it, so i guess i just accept it
d-mn
[chorus: lia mack]
too late
for the other side
caught in a chase
25 to life
too late
for the other side
caught in a chase
25 to life
too late
caught in a chase
25 to life
step back
