lirik lagu mc mantra - sometimes
[verse 1: mantra]
uh, it wasn’t that it was heinous
it was just dangerous
thinkin’ i could just walk around and be nameless
forget what my game is, forget ambitions of my past
let my path just be aimless
‘cause when you paranoid, plus the people is watchin’
that sh~t ain’t got nowhere to go but directly into your subconscious
the monsters get so monstrous when the darkness is fallin’
and i don’t wake up from my nightmares in the mornin’
used to follow my dreams and they were good
now bad dreams follow me everywhere that i look
(look) i used to blame alcohol and cocaine
for the way that my brain’s cooked, but i ain’t never been hooked
so everything that i took, elaborated the book
new layers for the cake i was bakin’, i was shook
back in the day we got baked in my neck of the woods
kinda feel like e’ry song i put out since got the same hook
[chorus: mantra, n’fa jones, mantra & n’fa jones]
sometimes (sometimes)
all i see is
moonlight (moonlight)
peerin’ through these
dark skies (these dark skies)
shinin’ light on
where i might belong
goodnights (goodnights, goodnights)
run right through these
bad times (these bad times)
running tricks on
my mind (on my mind)
tellin’ me i
might be too
far gone
[verse 2: n’fa jones]
hm, reflections of iridescence
shone through my pupil since i was a pupil adolescent
lookin’ through the camera lens, john singletons
just a baby boy in the hood with good intentions and (hoo)
seekin’ poetic justice in my sentences
misconstrued by fools for being indifferent, oh
sophisticated with innovative intelligence
we tried to explain it but they just looked at us indifferent (huh)
complex matters never mattered to the simpleton
where all else matters but black lives and listenin’
they never give in so we’re never givin’ in
no forgivin’ them until they divide the dividends
race or not, it’s all about positionin’s
i face the flock and live to tell the witnesses
it’s a dark path of lonely hearts that never ends
like a loopin’ song with the same hook singin’ in
[chorus: mantra, n’fa jones, mantra & n’fa jones]
sometimes (sometimes)
all i see is
moonlight (moonlight)
peerin’ through these
dark skies (these dark skies)
shinin’ light on
where i might belong
goodnights (goodnights)
run right through these
bad times (these bad times)
running tricks on
my mind (on my mind, my~my~my mind)
tellin’ me i
might be too
far gone (too far gone, i said)
[bridge: n’fa jones]
turn the pages (uh~huh)
it’s the same old story
nothin’ changes (nothin’ changes)
no gain, no glory (oh)
what remains is (what remains is)
all the pain we hide (all the pain)
pray we find a way to
do right
[verse 3: mantra, n’fa jones, mantra & n’fa jones]
already thought of four responses before i say one, been like this since day one
now most days, feel like the same one
outside of music i ain’t tryna say much
why it bothers me to see no one else ever really be holdin’ they tongue
yeah, straight up, can we just wait up, wait up? uh
can we just wait up, wait up? uh
can we just wait up, wait up?
just wake up, wake up? just wake up, wake up? uh (oh)
can we just wait up, wait up? uh (hey)
can we just wait up, wait up? uh (hey)
can we just wait up, wait up? (hey)
just wake up, wake up? just wake up, wake up? yo (oh)
[outro: n’fa jones]
ay~ay
wake up, wake up
wake up, ha~hey
