What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Sometimes I just feel like, quittin
2
I still mic, why do I put up this fight, why do I still write
3
Sometimes it's hard enough just dealing with real life
4
Sometimes I just wanna jump on stage and just kill mic's
5
And show these people what my level of skill's like
6
But I'm still white, sometimes I just hate life
7
Something ain't right, hit the brake lights
8
Case of this stage fright, draw on the plane flight
9
Call but I might fall
10
It ain't my fault breaking my balls'
11
My insides crawl and I clam up
12
I just slam shut, I just can't do it
13
My whole man-hoods, just been stripped
14
I've just been picked so I must then get on the bus then split
15
Man fuck this shit, yo I'm going the fuck home
16
World on my shoulders as I run back to this ain't my room
17
I'm a man, I'm a make a new plan
18
Time for me to just stand up and travel new land
19
Time to leave and just take matters into my own hands
20
Once I'm over these track man I'm a never look back
21
And I'm gone and I know right where I'm goin
22
Sorry momma I'm grown, I must travel alone
23
Aint no followin footsteps, I'm making my own
24
Only way that I know how to escape from, this ain't my room
25
Walking these train tracks trying to regain back
26
The spirit I have before I go back to the same crap
27
To the same plant, in the same pants
28
Trying to chase rap, gotta move a.s.a.p
29
Gotta get a new plan, momma's gotta new man
30
Poor little baby sister, she don't understand
31
Sits in front of the tv, buries her nose in the pad
32
And just colours until the crayon get dull in her hand
33
While she just colours her big brother and mother and dad
34
There's no telling what really goes on in her little head
35
Wish that I could be the daddy that neither one of us had
36
But I keep running from something I never wanted so bad
37
Sometimes I get upset, cause I ain't blew up yet
38
Its like I grew up but I ain't grown up to nuts yet
39
Dont got a rep, my step, don't got enough pep
40
The pressures too much man I'm just trying to do what's best
41
And I try, sit alone and I cry, yo I wont tell her why
42
Not a moment goes by that I look right at the sky
43
Please I'm begging you god
44
Please don't let me be fishin holding no regular job
45
Yo I hope you will be getting home, whereva you are
46
Yo I'm telling you dog, I'm bailing this trailer tomorrow
47
Tell my mother I love her, kiss baby sister goodbye
48
Say whenever you need me baby, I'm never to far
49
But yo I gotta get out there, the only way I know
50
And I'm a be back for you the second that I blow
51
On everything I own, I'll make it on my own
52
Off to work I go, back to this ain't my room
53
I'm a man, I'm a make a new plan
54
Time for me to just stand up and travel new land
55
Time to leave and just take matters into my own hands
56
Once I'm over these track man I'm a never look back
57
And I'm gone and I know right where I'm goin
58
Sorry momma I'm grown, I must travel alone
59
Aint no followin footsteps, I'm making my own
60
Only way that I know how to escape from, this ain't my room
61
You got to live it to feel it, you didn't then you wouldn't get it
62
Well see what the big deal is, why wasn't and still is
63
To be walking this borderline of detroit city limits
64
Its different in it, a certain significant of certificate
65
Of authenticity, you'd never even see but it's everything to me
66
Its my credibilaty, you never seen, heard, smelt a meda ta mc
67
Who's incredable on the same pedestal as me
68
The chaque still unsigned, having a rough time
69
Sit on the porche with all my friends and kick dumb rhymes
70
Go to work and serve mc's in the lunch line
71
But when it comes crunch time, where do my punch lines go
72
Who must I show, to bust my flow, where must I go, who must I know
73
Or am I just another grabbing the bucket
74
Cause I ain't having no luck with this little rappers so fuck it
75
Maybe I need a new outlet, I'm starting to doubt shit
76
I'm feeling a little skeptical who I hang out with
77
I look like a bum, yo my clothes ain't about shit
78
At the salvation army trying to salvage an outfit
79
And it's cold trying to travel this road
80
Plus I feel like I'm always stuck in this batteling mode
81
My defenses are so up one thing don't want it pity from no one
82
This city is no fun, there is no sun and it's so dark
83
Sometimes I just feel like, I'm being pulled a-part
84
From each one of my limbs, by each one of my friends
85
Its enough to make me just wanna jump out of my skin
86
Sometimes I just feel like a robot, sometimes I just know not
87
What I'm doing I just blow my head as a stove top
88
I just explode, the kettle gets so hot
89
Sometimes my mouth just overloads the acid, I don't got
90
But I learned it's time for me to u-turn
91
Yo it only takes one time for me to get burned
92
Aint no callin her next time I need a new girl
93
I can no longer play stupid or be immature
94
I got every ingredient all I need is the courage
95
Like I already got the beat all I need is the word
96
Uh uh got the urge, suddenly it's a surge
97
Suddenly a new burst of energy hits the curve
98
Time to show these free world leaders, three and the third
99
I am no longer scared now, I'm free as a bird
100
Then I turn and cross over the medium curve
101
Hit the burbs and run and see it's a blur, this ain't my room
102
I'm a man, I'm a make a new plan
103
Time for me to just stand up and travel new land
104
Time to leave and just take matters into my own hands
105
Once I'm over these track man I'm a never look back
106
And I'm gone and I know right where I'm goin
107
Sorry momma I'm grown, I must travel alone
108
Aint no followin footsteps, I'm making my own
109
Only way that I know how to escape from, this ain't my room
