TRØN & DVD - Raps to Listen to at Night Lyrics

Jon Solomon:

You're now entering a world filled with corruption, disease, dishonesty, tragedy and suffering
You may be familiar with such a place
You may know it as reality

TRØN:
I got dark thoughts
And even darker tendencies
I hate the world and don't know what its meant to be
Is this it?
Is this f*cking it?
Look at this shit
No wonder we all suffer from depression
I cant believe my eyes when i read the news
But then i talk to other humans now i see the truth
So i hit the booth when I'm feeling blue
Then i flow it through its all i know how to do
In my past life I mighta been a revolutionary
Blacker than the lights in your house when the movies scary
Darker than then ya last thoughts before you get buried
Mama raised a boy that the cold world turned deadly

Let me tell you something about fear
It'll change how a man looks at himself in the mirror
It can put a knife in back of someone you hold dear
Then put up a wall between anyone who wants to get near f*ck

Schools closed the prisons open
We fightin wit our own guess the bridge is over
These kids are cold pullin heat for a hold up
At night we all wanna shine like a super nova

Jon Solomon:

Survival can be hard but it isn't impossible
These are tales built from the minds who lived them
As pages turn and channels switch
You can almost see yourself singing
These raps to listen to at night

Black excellence
Hear this story often
But it's overshadowed
By this f*cking mediocrity
The culture they be mocking
Getting popular from copying
Struggle to be poppin'
So they turning into novelties
Young prophet
It's the young prodigy
Tryna make a profit from the art
But i gotta be
A character or comedy
An overdosing oddity
A predator that loves
Misogyny,
Send apology
Our people go to war
Just for your entertainment
Everybody hit the floor
Catch a fade or get faded
They be leaving us brainless
No cocking and aiming
Started blocking the knowledge
And overstocking the stainless
Got us going insane
From seeing slayings in hell
Then it's hard to explain
The pain with no mental health
So we keep it to ourselves
End up dead or in cells
Or we gon' put it in a song
Just as long as it sells my nigga

Schools closed the prisons open
We fightin wit our own guess the bridge is over
These kids are cold pullin heat for a hold up
At night we all wanna shine like a super nova

Jon Solomon:
Dark times call for even darker measures
The strongest minds have been broken and rebuilt
And the weakest are invincible
This is where we all meet
This is where we are all free
In the dark

Lynk:
Three AM
Tumbling down the rabbit hole
Laptop lights up the dark
I'm out of Adderal
How many?
How many headlines before the passion's gone?
Unfulfilled in a world gone mad
I'm known for savage bars
The saddest song is the one never heard
I'm like an animal
Ahead of the herd, ya know
Madness grows in the dark
Like a match that glows
Ignited with a fire that goes up like a catapult
Enough! Leaders we don't trust
They gotta go
Kids shot up in schools
Get our past heroes
Aw f*ck, they'r all dead
I'm the last to know
The blackest hole inside in the aftermath
It's all so overwhelming
I gotta grip the pen to talk
Did I mention? I gotta grip the pen to talk!

Schools closed the prisons open
We fightin wit our own guess the bridge is over
These kids are cold
Pullin heat for a hold up
At night we all wanna shine like a super nova
