[Sample] "Why must I wait one more tomorrow?" [Verse One: Birdapres] I want to have a basement tape buy back day Listening to old rhymes like, "Was I that gay?" Dane Goulet born broke, don't wanna die that way March 10th, 0-5, by that day Birdapres, better be known in your household Or I'm moving to Florida and buying a houseboat Hold the best of my yesterday, throw the rest away There's more to lose now so I've got way less to say [Verse Two: Mcenroe] I'm rocking at the height of mediocrity Critically acclaimed unknown, exercising in futility Patiently Waiting for your appreciation, feeling like the family pet Fiending for your admiration How long can I accept? Being known next to no one Being under, under, under Play a show to like a dozen it doesn't Make it easy to return to work on Monday Knowing one day
I've got to make a serious decision And k** the delusion of living as a musician And feeding the family Meaning John Smith, Honeycutt, Pip Skid, Gruf, Birdapres and Moves But the day is approaching and I'll have to choose That I'm not going to make it and it isn't worth the heartache They say good things come to those who wait And me or mine are at or near the front of the line Using beats and rhymes as a weapon in a race against time Trying to use rap as an escape clause cause Life ain't all that as a civilian Thee endeavor is to be the exception For that you need the public's affection And stay true to your original vision Or they'll turn on you like a dirty politician Don't forget the innovation, never sounding the same But for now I'm still playing the fame waiting game "Why must I wait one more tomorrow?"
