Singawd - Alone / EA6 lyrics

Part I: Alone [Intro: Spoken] I know that but being around...in that atmosphere and seeing how people move, you know, seeing how, how they make records, you know, what kind of record they make...I'm just like...I don't want this sh** for myself and I don't ever want n***as to try to pull me into that. 'Cause I've been told a couple times like, "Hey, do this sh** man, do that..." And I'm like man, I don't want, I don't that for me man. And if I keep tellin' y'all I don't want that sh** for me and y'all keep, you know, tryna nudge and push...I understand y'all got your vision and y'all got your formula but that sh** don't work for me man. I'm not gonna conform, I'm not settling for that sh**. 'Cause if I do it once and it pop, I'ma have to keep doing that sh** over and over again. You can't build no fanbase like that. You...you become, you become, you become a f**in' song instead of a person. That sh**...I'm not...I'm not tryna be that man. [Verse 1] Ummmm...migraines from overthinking I'm tryna let go, I'm tryna let go Let go of the past, man that sh** been tryna creep up, up Contemplatin' on if I'm really as strong as I thought, b**h I might be Quick to pull me down but as much as I've seen, I can't fall, it's unlikely sh** get a little twisted up I put my troubles in the dirty then I mix it up I'm bouta change my number Like I haven't switched enough This is home And you ain't Zone 6 enough Gone I'm from East Atlanta Zone If you ain't from it Take your a** home I let my heart talk, keep my mental strong Speak the whole truth 'til my money long [Interlude: Spoken] Half of them don't even know your name. I don't want that, I want people to know who the f** I am. I want people to know what I stand for. I want people to be personal and know, "This is 6LACK, this is what he believe in...." [Hook] What we need to talk about Get gone, get gone, yea yea Got the past whispering in my ear He flaw, she flaw, what's wrong? I got troubles, and they won't leave me alone [Verse 2] It seems like everybody got something to say Everybody got a look they tryna get off of their face Everybody got an opinion And I don't want one Trying to tell me a better way to do some sh** That you ain't ever done Sips drink in the booth Black down to my shoes Kick sh** with my troops Kicking sh**, Ryu You not with the sh** why you Front for those who don't matter When they not thinking about you If I learned anything It would probably be to listen more than I talk And don't brag about what I got Just multiply what I brought I never dwell on a loss Never give a n***a sauce He might run off with it all [Hook] Get gone get gone Yea yea Got the past whispering in my ear He flaw, she flaw, what's wrong? I got troubles, and they won't leave me alone Get gone get gone Got the past whispering in my ear He flaw, she flaw, what's wrong I got troubles, and they won't leave me alone Part II: EA6 [Interlude: Spoken] On the record, off the record Feel like I'm more of myself than I've ever been Which is something you gotta come to face with I thought I was fully myself 24/7 But nope, like right now is how I'm supposed to feel all the time How I'm supposed to be all the time How I'm supposed to think all the time Now I know going out of this, leaving this That will follow me. It doesn't end with this I take it, I live with it every day I see the people around me I feel so much I wanna put it in words Try and figure where to go with it But I just feel so much I know they don't even feel as much as I feel That's alright That's alright We have 2 different purposes Clearly my purpose is some sh** that's way f**ing bigger than me Then it gets completely quiet when im at the beach I know I'm one person but I kinda feel like this ripple effect is gonna impact a lot of people I feel God talking and when he talks everything else is silent [Verse 3] Summer 2011 Almost lost my faith in god Same time I never prayed so hard Took control of my life so I wouldn't have to take no job Press play I couldn't take no pause I'm from east Atlanta 6 they don't play that sh** In east Atlanta six you better make that lick Or they be at your front door with that gun doe Know them n***as Nick Cannon with the f**ing drum roll East side till a n***a die Beast mode till a n***a cry Sensei make a n***a fly sh** hard but you gotta try If I can do it, you can do it Time to be a better guy I found the answer ridin' down Candler I'm late for court 'cause traffic on Moreland I'm trying to preach to yall what's important So hard for me to ignore ignorance I don't know why I feel it's my place I know you see the pain in my face I call the shots and move at my pace But I understand its all a big race I understand you want that big face They offer and hey Its hard for me to say I wouldn't bite the bait they threw me Be cautious where you play It's darkness in the A [Chorus] Be cautious where you play It's darkness in the A Be cautious where you play It's darkness in the A Be cautious where you play It's darkness in the A [Verse 4] A-Town stomp on the old me Used to ride through the hood with the slow creep People gon' love what they don't need I remember what the OG's told me You better shine bright when the lights down Less talk, more show, n***a pipe down 'Cause words ain't sh** but your thoughts out loud And thoughts are the opposite of showin' n***a's how [Chorus] Be cautious where you play, there's darkness in the A Be cautious where you play, there's darkness in the A Be cautious where you play, there's darkness in the A Be cautious where you play, there's darkness in the A
