All Day
John Lindahl Lyrics

What's up? What good? Tell me what it is
Hello, how are you? Give me an update on your life.

Young and 22', we gon' do it for the kids
Being young, we are going to strive to inspire and make a change for the younger generation.

Everybody probably saying "John where you been?"
People are probably asking me about my whereabouts lately.

In the studio' now I'm bout to show 'em what I did like
Currently in the studio, I am going to reveal my latest work and efforts to others.

Sound like Michael in that white coat (Hee-hee)
I sound like Michael Jackson when he wore his iconic white jacket (the "Hee-hee" is a reference to his signature vocalizations).

God damn' he be drumming like it's Taiko (Duh-duh-duh)
He drums with the energy and vigor of the traditional Japanese Taiko drums (the "Duh-duh-duh" is an onomatopoeia for the drumming).

Where my mic though cause I gotta write more
I am in search of my microphone so I can continue writing more music.

When I made the beat, yeah this made my neck go
When I created the beat for the song, it was so good that I couldn't resist bobbing my head in excitement.

Hey ya, baby come hither
Hey there, come here, my love.

When I come through I keep it smooth like I'm Dilla
I maintain a smooth and cool presence, much like the late hip-hop producer J Dilla.

Shorty tell me that she wanna taste my vanilla
A girl expressed interest in me and wants to experience intimacy with me.

Step into the plate like she a home run hitter
She approaches the plate (referring to sex) like she's an expert and expects to hit a home run (achieve orgasm).

Smoking that gas' smoking that patch, never the same flow
Smoking weed and tobacco, my creativity and music style is always evolving.

I got the cash, got an advance' still gotta grind though
Although I have received money and an advance for my music, I still need to put in hard work and effort.

Know how to dance, moving like Breezy at the free throw
I have skill and knowledge in dancing, much like Chris Brown executing a free throw motion.

Look at my feet though, shout out Johnny Rico
Take a look at my awesome dance moves, and give a shoutout to Johnny Rico (a character from the movie Starship Troopers) for inspiration.

I never been into the drugs or the money
I have never had any interest in drugs or money for my music career.

I'm still the same but I think it's all funny
I haven't changed despite any success or attention, and find it amusing.

That all the honeys, all of the girls say they want me
All the girls who overlooked me in the past are now expressing interest and attention.

Gotta look my way back in school, now they can't get enough of me
Girls who rejected me in school are now attracted to me, and can't get enough of me.

Woah, oh I remember you
Oh, I remember you from the past.

Suzie right? Junior year we planned to have that rendezvous
Remembering a girl named Suzie from junior year who I planned to hook up with.

Stood me up outside the Starbucks, you never came through
She stood me up when we were supposed to meet outside a Starbucks.

Damn you used to be so fine, wish that stayed true
Reflecting on how attractive she used to be, and how I wish that remained consistent.

Oh, I got a little savage
I am feeling a little feisty or aggressive.

I apologize but it don't really matter
I am sorry but it wasn't a big deal or worth it anyways.

It's been a while but no I ain't done, done
Although it's been some time, I am not finished or quitting on my music career.

I'ma do this off the top for the people what's up
I will rehearse and create new music for the audience's entertainment.

I'm just like Rocky, beat it up and get up in it
I am comparing myself to fictional boxer Rocky Balboa, saying I can conquer and overcome anything.

Up in the ring, 12th round tryna win the pendant, or the bell
Similar to a championship boxing match, I am exerting my energy and resources to win a music trophy or success.

Doing this for myself independent
My music career is self-driven and independent.

See, I was all alone 'til Elysium saved me
I was doing badly and depressed until finding "Elysium" (a metaphor for music or success) saving me.

Oh I don't know what you're gonna say
I am uncertain of what to expect or hear from you.

I'm working all day
I spend my entire day working on my music career and not relaxing.

Hey, and waking up in the morning
Starting the day with energy and eagerness to continue.

I gotta know, are you gonna wait for me whenever I am away?
I am uncertain if my fans and supporters will remain loyal and wait for me during my absences.

I just wanna make it through
I just want to persevere and succeed in my music career.

Everybody let me hear you say!
I want the audience to chant along with me.

Oh (Keep saying!)
I want the audience to continue saying "Oh."

Oh (Let me hear you say)
I want to hear the audience say "Oh."

Oh, oh, oh
The audience continues to say "Oh."
