Minor Key
.
I march to the beat of my own drum
And speak from the heart to the minor key
Mom and Dad to the left and the right of me
Watching over the life they provided me
I walked alone in a mask – disguising me
While the world listened to what’s inside of me
And since the world wasn’t familiar with what I recited
They aimed both barrels, criticizing me
While I kept on writing to the minor key
Took the mask off and showed a different side of me
Tired of posing – I showed them a whiter me
I decided to I should stop dressing like a teen
Threw the Ecko in the trash and bought tighter jeans
And said goodnight to the man I was trying to be
I kept releasing records at lightning speed
Afraid of death – I kept writing to the minor key
Laughed when your favorite rappers started biting me
Told myself my time will come when time agrees
One hit away from a major signing me
So I kept on writing to the minor key
My records started making noise
Concepts adored
When delivered through a different set of whiter teeth
I couldn’t understand for the life of me
Why I became a punching bag in a fighter’s ring
Maybe they smell I’m not a fighter and try to swing
Pick a fight ‘cuz they’d rather see a lighter me
Or take swipes ‘cuz I look nothing like the Bieb
Or maybe I’m the writer they’d die to be
Everyone’s a tough guy when behind a screen
Meanwhile, in real life, they’re nothing but vagina queefs
Backseat drivers afraid to take the driver’s seat
Who hate their lives and inside scream silently
Dishing out insults trying to silence me
It’ll take more than words to quiet me
And I’m prepared to spend my life in the minor league
And stay awake all night ‘cuz I’m tired of sleep
And bleed all night to the minor key
All because yesterday wasn’t kind to me
While I march to the beat of my own drum
And speak from the heart to the minor key
