Equalibrum - Ain't the Blues lyrics

[Verse 1] Yo I ain't gonna front It's been a rough couple months Sex, ladies having babies business just been f**ing up Plus I been feeling like my tongue is stuck Puffin' blunts to feel something other than nothing, nah This bubble keeps up on the outside But let's them in enough to think there's never any downtime The town sides muffles the outcries about white lies that the side of my mouth hides Yeah, I said I hide behind a mask Trying to find the line of sight - I write about the past Lookin' at the stars, lying on the gra** And cooking up them bars when I'm high enough to gas I fall for girls that's taken Swooping relations on the verge of breaking Wonder if my turns worth the wait When the search don't work and the flirts is vacant [Hook] It's a piece of paper that you got paid in for school Look at your feet and wonder who made your shoes The feeling in your tummy knowing money made the moves But nah, this ain't the blues - Na-uh, it ain't the blues It's knowing that you're going nowhere, paying dues And thinking that ya ma dukes ashamed of you Knowing that someone you trusted just be playing you But nah, this ain't the blues - Na-uh, it ain't the blues [Verse 2] Nah, it's something much deeper You wanna fall in love but know lust is just cheaper Cut it up, bust a nut and just leave her You f**in' up, know you're running from keepers I spend a lot of time in my cave, now worried that the drum breaks may lead to break downs Venting? on a song that's never ending Lifting up the pen and pretending, I'm picking up the pace now But what's the point of runnin' faster - if you're only runnin' laps You're so concerned about staying on the track you forget the finish line's the starting point you're coming back to So now I keep it how the crow flies Cause road signs never point to gold mines And closed eyes don't enjoy the whole ride Bundled for a cold night, buckle up and hold tight [Hook] It's a piece of paper that you got paid in for school Look at your feet and wonder who made your shoes The feeling in your tummy knowing money made the moves But nah, this ain't the blues - Na-uh, it ain't the blues It's knowing that you're going nowhere, paying dues And thinking that ya ma dukes ashamed of you Knowing that someone you trusted just be playing you But nah, this ain't the blues - Na-uh, it ain't the blues [Verse 3] Yo Money comes and goes But If it goes before it comes should you know your role, own your soul or go and load your gun Never yell, but never hold your tongue And never listen to the tall tales them other soldiers spun The truth has a few different shades Believablilty belongs to who's getting paid I didn't know the rules, I was new to the game 'til you snapped your foul fingers and the crew shifted ways Man, I was a fool to the end when I understood you embodied rule number seven I did the work - you took the credit You played the game smarter man that's cool; I accept it But don't be out smearing my name while You step on people'ss backs to get yourself paid pal f** around and get laid out. Ignore me when you see me - stay away with your fake smile
