winston anthony - midnightroad lyrics

[verse]
h-town, yeah we had it poppin’
blank canvas had me feelin’ like there weren’t no stopping
and then they flew me out to l.a.x
for a young rapper from new zealand well, sh-t was better than s-x
but i put my head down and i learned from the best
the homie phora showing me success is better than rest
turned a single show in l.a. to a tour
you know they showed me california love that’s for sure
then underground hip hop said some critically acclaimed sh-t
the type to make a 21-year-old go insane sh-t
the type that had me thinking of the n-ggers that i came with
that ima’ go home and ima’ k!ll the game sh-t
and then i touched down, the first in my league up on the tv
can’t believe i said in 5 years i’d be sitting at the grammy’s
the team set up a meet and greet
i remember sitting at the top of the table thinking sheesh
i turned to simba told him homie we ahead of schedule
he just laughed and told me that he got me
i text my girl to confess like i’m kinda scared you know?
she just laughed and told me that she got me
and then reality hit. law school the work was piling up
but i wasn’t in it no more. my grades were falling off
and then i started fighting with the fam
quote unquote, we didn’t mean to raise a rapper we were trying to raise a man
the prodigal son that broke middle child syndrome
to my father like you useless and i’m thinking man this sh-t’s wrong!
i’m doing this to make ya’ll proud
so my mom could be like that’s my son! and scream it out loud
meanwhile i’m having issues with my girl
coz she was having issues accepting my new world
and the groupies started showing up
like moths to a flame
but nah dawg, that wasn’t even part of it
the next year, me and simba started thursday
had the whole city acting like it was our f-cking birthday
come to think of it, most of the n-ggers popping now
we put em on. the don’t remember that part though
then there was russell brand
sh-t, what a f-cking man
couple kids dreaming big
sh-t, what a f-cking band
then i moved out to melbourne, opened up for big sean
o.t. genasis and bow wow like n-gga we on!
then i dropped the label sh-t started slowing down
noone to hold me back like where do i go now?
watching myself fall off like how am i gonna save it?
maybe it wasn’t me that needed saving. win
