Sleep of Oldominion - Rap Rehab lyrics
[Intro] Welcome to the support group for washed up rappers You sir, why don't you step up here and tell everybody your name Uhh, Hey, my names Sleep, uh from Oldominion, Chicharones Yea our prime was, well let me just tell you something check it [Verse 1] What does it take to make it from nothing, I thought it would be busting But ten years later I feel like I got a concussion, and I realized that it wasn't So what do I do now cousin? I don't know cause the only thing I've ever been good at was cussing Man, I gotta switch functions, hmm, let me see um, where's that reset bu*ton? Can't find it, sh**, it's really hard to find Like a real artsy Carhartt design Or like sleep on a Broadway sign looking real good to your starry eyes Yea, so sad it made Bob Marley cry Listen to me kick truth, I hardly lie So futuristic but you're looking at me stupid like my Atari's fine [Chorus] We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it together We gonna make it together You may be the only thing I have to call my own I will not let you down I'll stand my ground I won't let go (x2) Make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it together We gonna make it together [Verse 2] Yea, so I first started using when I was nine My cousin Jude was the one supplying Man, one two at a time Taking out rappers man I was out of my mind And yo, I wanted them to stand and fight But they were more like sheep getting sacrificed Then I feel bad for life, 'cause someone took some bad advice Yea, but it was no plan of mine And the way I made look he ain't even a man for trying It's like man vs. lion Street vs. riot Tyson vs. Dreyfuss And I like this since the first time I tried it It's been consistent in my diet Yo, yo I can't even lie It's hard to resist when your heartbeat supplies it [Chorus] We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it together We gonna make it together You may be the only thing I have to call my own I will not let you down I'll stand my ground I won't let go (x2) Make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it together We gonna make it together [Verse 3] I know I've been standing up here a long time And you've been waiting to rhyme But there is a long line behind me Never took my grind lightly, so me stepping down is unlikely Oh you thought I'd do the right thing like Spike Lee Oh you though I came to rap rehab to find peace Well maybe I did, maybe I didn't But you're not getting the microphone from me cause I'm addicted And a dick head as well as all you other misfits, what? What is it? Why does everyone gotta act so funny in this business Cause all we really do is write lyrics It's just a dream everyone can chase it Wait a minute, I recognize your faces Oh I see what going on Yea, you wish I was rehabilitated [Chorus] We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it together We gonna make it together You may be the only thing I have to call my own I will not let you down I'll stand my ground I won't let go (x2) Make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it We gonna make it together We gonna make it together We gonna make it together
