Nard - No More Lyrics

Didn't think I would make it, tried to tell me I'm foolish
Why you wasting your time, why you still stuck on this music
I need you to contribute, need to go get a job
And take your head out the clouds, you are not Mr. Jobs
But what papa don't know is, I'm a do me un-til I see my name at the top, oh-oh
And what mama don't know, she surely going see
Tell em better make way for my spot, oh-oh
At the age of eleven I was hit with a vision
It was more than a dream, it put me on to my mission
Although sometimes I pivot, try not to stray from the path
I liberated my spirit, need the feeling to last
But it's hard to maintain when feelings get drained, and every single day is a fight, oh-oh
But when everything's changed, and people get strange
Just remember you came from the light, oh-oh
Oh-oh

I know how it is when ya see me, I know you don't think about the kid no more
Holla' when ya see me on your TV, now all of a sudden I don't seem so poor, so poor
That's how it is when ya coming up, coming up
That's how it is when ya one of us, one of us
But they better get ready, cuz I'm coming and they won't stop me from nothing no more, no-no

A tale of triumph can capture the spirit
Give you confidence every time that you happen to hear it
Inspire change from the least to the greatest
At least make a playlist
Cuz every song that I'm penning it's nothing that's near it
I digress
Not trying to impress
Just trying to be heard
Like an elephant, found my medicine through writing these words
Share it openly
So the one's hurting can cope with me
I know how it feels, they know that I'm real, got close with me
Over this process
Vocals and music, not nothing too overly processed
I just need you to digest
Every sentence and every word
Meant it in every word
Exposing all of my flaws that I live with in every word
It's honorable yet I'm vulnerable and that's my reality
Just trying to find me a balance, gain a sense of normality
Easy for me to try to hide it than to tell the truth
I know they out here selling lies, I'd rather sell the truth

I know how it is when ya see me, I know you don't think about the kid no more
I know how it is when ya see me
Holla' when ya see me on your TV, now all of a sudden I don't seem so poor
I don't seem so poor no more
That's how it is when ya coming up
Why is that
That's how it is when ya one of us
You so foul
But they better get ready, cuz I'm coming and they won't stop me from nothing no more
No more

I know how it is when ya see me, I know you don't think about the kid no more
You don't think about me no more
Holla' when ya see me on your TV, now all of a sudden I don't seem so poor
So poor
That's how it is when ya coming up
Coming up
That's how it is when ya one of us
You so foul
But they better get ready, cuz I'm coming and they won't stop me from nothing no more
No more

I won't let em stop me, no-no
No
