lirik lagu mantisthemiasma - career
[verse 1: mantis the miasma]
said that my p-ssion wouldn’t ever get cash
said give up on it, focus only on cl-ss
said my sh-ts weak but what they know about art?
they ain’t care ’bout me, think they got some gouged hearts
soulless and controlling, tryna push goals on me
solace and comp-ssion are desires so lofty
nowadays it feels like i’m just viewed as a tool
power plays by family, they tell me i’m a fool
tell me making music would be wasting my gifts
college is the only way to make my life lift
up from the dirt and make myself feel pleasant
think a rift forms if i choose not to listen
so i do the cr-p they ask for, still in the lab
cooking up the verses, not some book like they ask
they tryna make my vision crooked, so i can’t see
what i really wanna do (and) who i really wanna be
f-ck your doubts, if i get clout you’ll praise tracks
took this route, got out of my drought, i blaze wacks
what they lack? they ain’t got no heart and wear masks
i’m not talking trout, but they replicas to count cash
what they represent? nothing, wanna race a ‘rari
they’re just living marvelous, makes me feel sorry
f-ck my dreams, throw ’em out since they ain’t’ realistic
should just be a mystic, or go read statistics
f-ck my goals, they want to see all those differed
shriveled like a raisin in the sun, they’d prefer
say that you love me, support no matter what
but always push sh-t on me, say don’t trust my gut
people say my songs trash, do something productive
keep the day job, that sh-t isn’t constructive
took me months to learn flow, no one could describe it
but over time i got it, i made that sh-t a science
ask azure, helped each other make our flows smooth
trash twitter rappers shouldn’t ever touch a booth
they ain’t for the culture, they just out for themselves
so they stay dissing people who’re just asking for help
[bridge: mantis the miasma]
say we ain’t succeeding, so we’ll be defeated
when were on a beat, you just say that we’re the weakest
even though we’re teens, all the worlds we paint are scenic
all the sh-t you say doesn’t even carry meaning
[hook: mantis the miasma]
people told me music can’t be a career
i told them all right we’ll check back in some years
when i make a stack, bet theyll walk up in tears
but i know that sh-t fake, so its f-ck all their cheers
f-ck my dreams, all i gotta do is get cream
f-ck my happiness, they said get a good degree
just give up on music, i won’t ride in limousines
get a good career, but it’s f-ck my self-esteem
[verse 2: azure the paradox]
someone tell me what these motherf-ckers know
had to grind by myself when they never been alone
so much work i been doing in my home
but a n-gga still hating man i’m done with these hoes
dealing with doubt and this poor -ss reception
take in the hate while i switch up inflection
spend time on verses but its like a message
dont see the purpose unless i’mma flex it
break a beat down and apart like its brexit
say that i mumble, my words never catching
f-ck up my heart you just k!lling my p-ssion
say that im weak cuz i never been savage
really i’m p-ssive i’m done with this sh-t
everyone thinking a n-gga should quit
parents and family stay making jokes
n0body to trust with the sh-t that i wrote
i been working on myself and they can never understand
i ain’t worried bout my health or the motherf-cking bands
all of this sh-t man it came with the plans
i been in the game you should stay in the stands
working on myself and they can never understand
i ain’t worried bout my health or the motherf-cking bands
all of this sh-t man it came with the plans
i been in the game you should stay in the stands, lil b-tch

f-ck my happiness, they said get a good degree
just give up on music, i won’t ride in limousines
get a good career, but it’s f-ck my self-estee
