manic tl & russell cooper - no name kid lyrics
[verse i: manic tl]
my mental heavy with dry smoke
meticulously piecin’ words together to render these suicide notes
i keep flyin’ defiant never hidin’ i’m ridin’
my backround technique, pun, and police sirens
our cries will never be silent so leave you fist raised
im shinin’ light on your system and see it’s displaced
with switch blades and guns drawn
we marchin’ from the night to even after the suns dawn
i must warn the oppressor of man to jet while you can
my people are m-ssive and actively takin’ the land
amerikkka can’t stand, when we takin’ a stand
this is bigger than rap, shouts to m-1 and stic man
and everyone who contributes into buildin’ that bridge
and those who fight against the evil ‘round our people and kids
just let em live
see, i already knew that life’s a b-tch
but illmatic kinda helped me make some sense of the sh-t
i was lost, and bruised without a vision or spine
untill d-12 and mobb deep taught me how to rhyme
tech n9ne taught me that theres hardly rules to the land
and r.a.’s mind taught me how to be a rugged man
i started to understand through lessons of age
how all these lyrics on the page were effecting my day to day
so anyway i see the game i see theres no other way
im’a stay here, home is a feeling more than a place still
every step of the path everybody try’na ask me why ain’t we relaxing
it’s ’cause i ain’t try’na live my life up in the back seat
we be p-ssing everybody while we steady let the facts ring
do the “bad man thing” and i’m never sorry
say that i should act my age but i ain’t really like to party
you forced to be creative when the sky’s not starry
my city never sleeps but its darker than an army
i come from a land that the people avoid
where the dreams are created but most destroyed
everybody doin’ what they do to make make noise
and hope on a tight rope over the void
i guess that this worlds just bigger than us
we fallin’ in love with hate, and its f-ckin’ us up
i can’t trust anybody that i meet now
they see my movement as just another way to eat now
now, keep down while i ride to this
i won’t lie, i really get high with this
my whole life, i been lookin’ just to find the sh-t
my whole life i been lookin’ just to find the sh-t
i said, keep down while i ride to this
i won’t lie, i really get high with this
my whole life, i been lookin’ just to find the sh-t
my whole life, yeah, my whole life
[hook: manic tl]
i been just another no name kid
try’na swallow my pride like the cocaine drip
they try’na change me so i tell ’em that theres no way
im’a do it my own way if its ok
i been just another no name kid
try’na bury my past like i always did
they really can’t see so i tell ’em that theres no way
im’a do it my own way if its ok
[verse ii: franccxii]
feelin’ a little older, feel a little colder
man, this life is so surreal, grind until it’s over
guess until the motor d-gg-n’ and the wheels gone
–
i be puttin’ in the work, im’a spit it ’till it hurts
skin is peelin’ from my lips, till i’m bleedin’ from the verse
man, i swear i’m so obsessed, write until i’m in the dirt
im’a put on for my people those who f-ckin’ with me first
you can catch me in the shadows
movin’ in silence ’till i come swerve up in your lane
plottin’ and plannin and scheming believe by
the time i’m done they gone remember the name, yeah
i’m underrated, underestimated, highly educated
(?) im’a keep em waitin’ ’till you see the score and im’a run it up
those who pokin’ fun at us, now they showin’ love
yeah, my homie manic told me speak my sh-t
so im’a spit this f-ckin’ verse until the speakers drip
feed the mic like a feed the clip
venom in every direction, the denim foreign, the car on the wrist
ready to blow now, all my shows are sold out
play in front of crowds that are so loud
used to be a ghost town
i’m just on my hustle with the heart of a dreamer
went from performin’ in bas-m-nts to packin’ out at arenas
[hook: manic tl]
i been just another no name kid
try’na swallow my pride like the cocaine drip
they try’na change me so i tell ’em that theres no way
im’a do it my own way if its ok
i been just another no name kid
try’na bury my past like i always did
they really can’t see so i tell ’em that theres no way
im’a do it my own way if its ok
