Count on Us
No surprise I’m the one they sleep on, I roll with dreamers
But when us two come thru we make’em believers
Fiendin’ thru your receivers when it’s all 3 of us
For the love of the music, high 5 for Jesus
In a Motel 6, wake up call at 7
Breakfast we ate later had these players in heaven
By 9:10, I’m in a cab to the airport
Boarding’s at 11, I’m not stressing so therefore
It’s time to finish up this rhyme I’m 12 bars into
Hold up... 13 now yeah this ****’s cool
Came up since 14 with a hissing ass demo
15 minutes strong though the songs were hella simple
Finish that 16 then I crashed like a cymbal
Sounding 17 again, I’m gon’ bodied that instrumental
Night before, packed house. It was 18 an over
Still would’ve been killed if only nine teens showed up
We focused, in 2021 we may have more for you
But still be underrated they say that’s a catch 22
We wanna be... rated the greatest like #23
But since our thinking’s too forward that’s something we might never see
25 mins before I board for my trip
Hit my driver with $20 + a $6 tip
Thinkin’ that I was 27 when I heard Marcus ****
28 when we began to plan the very start of it
Dark skin chick tapped me saying , “I don’t know what’s on your mind
You’re holdin‘ up the line, by the way your gate is 29"
“Purdy” lil’ 30 something sista from the motherland
Thanked her for the info, passed the checkpoint with my stuff in hand
Copped gum, snacks and a book for something to do
Cashier said my total’s $31.32
Phone at 33%, my battery is lame
Charged it and called my family ‘fore I boarded the plane
34 years young, making music with my friends
Documented through a 35 millimeter lens
Day and a half before, yo that’s when we hit the road
Only 37 copies of our album in tow
One show they all go ‘cause they’re a hot commodity
Imports plus shipping be like $38 a copy, B
Finally boarded, near a guy who’s 39 or 40
By the time we’re in the sky I closed my eyes and started zoning...
Just another day in this life of ours, homes
Seems like we the ones that you can count on
Feels right the moment they put the sound on
Count on us to hold it down from now on
(Repeat)
Drop on the 1
Clap on 2
Nod on the 3
This is 4 you
Drop on the 1
Clap on 2
Nod on the 3
This is 4 you
This is 4 you!!!
