[00:06.070]Let me take another sip, another sip, another sip...
[00:10.201][Verse One]
[00:12.722]Populate my flow with concentrated growth
[00:14.899]Hear my verses, hear my beats, you know I dominate at both
[00:17.886]Got my nickname up in high school from this girl named Winta
[00:20.786]Those was my early days, when I didn't have concern for figures
[00:23.925]But times change...
[00:25.633]I'm over-thinking everything, mind games...
[00:28.566]Feel like it's feeding on my brain, now
[00:30.677]I'm second guessing every effort, every sentence
[00:33.444]Does my breath need less inflection, am I being too reflective?
[00:36.502]Is such and such really better? Is my message even clever?
[00:39.590]I'm apprehended by this pressure, but shall I surrender?
[00:42.522]I look at my own team like, damn, I wish they would help me more
[00:45.580]That's no diss, just being honest, already pressed record
[00:48.619]So can't take it back, and plus I know my destiny's in my hand
[00:51.881]**** man, I be stressin', maybe I should be more aggressive
[00:54.799]I really got some demons I'm embarrassed bout'
[00:58.612]Watch this verse become a motion picture, but what's Paramount was my fear
[01:01.338]Was out in LA, man I'm sittin' here with a living legend
[01:04.890]A living legend, the same one that made Resurrection
[01:07.690]No I.D., but they all just called him "Dion"
[01:10.420]And meanwhile I'm just overthinking, "should I play him 'Beyond'?
[01:13.611]Should I play him "Mama Told Me" and all my other classics?"
[01:16.476]But same old Damon, I just sat there being passive
[01:19.416]I never said a word, never shared a verse
[01:22.541]Then came back to Chicago acting like it never occurred
[01:25.505][Hook]
[01:25.893]There's a million words hiding in my silence
[01:28.487]There's a graveyard hiding in my closet
[01:31.661]Can't be that same dude chillin' on the corner
[01:34.293]So what you waiting on, tell me do you want it?
[01:37.759]Look through my eyes maybe you can see the riot
[01:40.805]Have you ever heard a storm that was quiet?
[01:43.910]Can't be the same dude chillin' on the corner
[01:46.914]So what you waiting on, tell me do you want it?
[01:49.612][Verse Two]
[01:50.106]Sipping on that Templeton
[01:51.625]Money short, no dividends
[01:53.103]Bank account ain't got no zeros, yet I still be zeroed in
[01:56.271]Got no time for simpletons
[01:57.786]Bumping Andre Benjamin
[01:59.302]In the crib, hit the shuffle now it starts that Eminem
[02:02.219]'said you only get one shot,' only get one shot
[02:05.815]I hope that ain't true, cause' I still got my gun cocked
[02:08.554]Its 12:59, I'm in the club probably 'Shrine'
[02:11.385]Sometimes it's lacking but tonight I see the hottest dimes
[02:14.753]Yellow dress up in the corner red nails I think I want her
[02:17.992]Hair braided to the side, nose ring, prima donna
[02:20.754]God damn girl you're killing triple murder
[02:22.962]Tell the judge tell your honor
[02:24.942]Like a goddess from some folklore, oh lord
[02:27.722]My god, swear I couldn't stop staring
[02:30.316]I think I need another drink so I can get more daring
[02:33.073]One shot, two shots, three shots, now I'm ready
[02:36.387]Going for the gold, hang my banner, spray that confetti
[02:39.361]Truthfully I got no game
[02:41.189]But when that liquor hit me I be feeling vain
[02:44.647]Told her my name, I swore our conversation was like magic
[02:48.009]Now we dancing to some classic ****
[02:49.810]Should I grab that ass, Damon don't be so passive
[02:51.667]Had her laughing, we exchanged digits
[02:53.687]I met my wife, I wonder if she had that same vision
[02:56.656]Well let's see, that next morning had to text her
[02:59.690]I told her she got me under
[03:00.957]Sorry I don't remember who you are and lose my number
[03:03.958]There's a million words hiding in my silence
[03:07.058]There's a graveyard hiding in my closet
[03:10.099]Can't be that same dude chillin' on the corner
[03:13.125]So what you waiting on, tell me do you want it?
[03:16.294]Look through my eyes maybe you can see the riot
[03:19.377]Have you ever heard a storm that was quiet?
[03:22.376]Can't be the same dude chillin' on the corner
[03:25.507]So what you waiting on, tell me do you want it?
