shut up
Patagonist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Let em know
They expected me to shut up
Sorry can't happen
I'm busy imagine
If me yes Patrick
Saint I'm far from
But so as you as well
But you'll waste some cents in well oh well
Niggas expect me to plead and
Get on my knees
Like without em gonna bleed
And without her and she then a nigga can't succeed
Or without them or they then a nigga gonna be shit
Far from original and only is a remix
The ones that wanted to the motherfuckers that believe it
They say it ain't broken best believe you better leave since
There's been a broken record time to fix it with achievements
I've been moving more hostile at the level of fossil
I'm hidden in the ground
Couldn't scent from my nostrils
Niggas wanted my spot group I'm realizing it now
I'm not the sharpest knife up In the drawer
But when these niggas drowning I'm the one who's on the oar
I felt the presence of your aura when was at the door
I made excuses now exclusive my time like reward
Only given to the chosen few who like to pour
Consistency who plans on growing bonds like plants of course
Niggas ain't built like that infrastructure all wack
Rule one exes off until consent from comrade
Rule two confrontation not no talks behind backs
Rule three pull your weight and don't grab on my jacket
Rule four we check in no popping in and out action
Rule five just support without a nigga even asking
A couple life hacks but these niggas they rarely follow
If this a chapter of Harry Potter we at deadly hollows
Just like these bitches niggas fake a pill to swallow
Some sneak to take the lead when all they know is to follow
They expected me to shut up
Sorry can't happen
I'm busy imagine
If me yes Patrick
Saint I'm far from
But so as you as well
You can wish me go to hell
But you'll waste some cents in well oh well
