Nameless
D.M.T.A. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cue the rain.
Cue the floss and effects on the thing
You say that I be so dramatic?
Maybe if you thought like me you'd be a better man.
Gotta wake up.
Gotta, gotta stay up.
Gotta beat the system.
Gotta go and get this paper.
Me and my amigos, we get to the pesos.
We don't tell nobody what we doing, we just stay post
Because you know who we are.
I know you know we been stars
It wasn't always this easy.
We really had it so hard
Now everybody trying to hang out.
And all my bullies is congratulating
I see you all back in the same town.
I'm in the business of the money making

Oh, I tried to put you on some game.
But you and me don't speak the same language
I said a prayer to ease the pain.
I made a vow that I won't die nameless

workin', workin', workin', workin', workin'

All I do is work.
Then I do the dash, then I do the dash
Cause it's really bout' to be the first.
And you can catch me on the scene
Spiritual awakening, I'm really seeing green.
Quit my nine-to-five, knew it wouldn't last forever
Manifest a life, knew it wasn't just a dream
Why can't you
Just be, just be true

I tried to put you on some game.
But you and me don't speak the same language
I said a prayer to ease the pain.
I made a vow that I won't die
Nameless
I made a vow that I won't die
Nameless

Levitating, yeah I'm levitating.
You can feel the energy, it's gravitating
Selling out shit, shit be overrated.
Always been over the top, I'm overrated
Graduated, getting faded.
THC, you know we getting medicated




Dedication, this is dedication.
Shout out to my pops, yeah I dedicate him
