Blues
The Chiefs Lyrics

Shining, my town, they don't want me
I'm successful and shining a light on my town, but some people don't want to see me succeed.

Left me broken picked up the pieces
When I was down and broken, I had to pick myself up and move on.

Darkness roaming so many bad days
I've had a lot of bad days and been in a dark place.

In the light now up to big things
Now I'm in a better place and achieving big things.

Left in the mud got it on my own
I had to work hard and get out of tough situations on my own.

Was immune to days was immune to fun
I was numb to the good and bad times in my life.

Out singing melodies to relieve the days
I used singing to cope and deal with my problems.

Now I sing the blues its my only way
Singing the blues is now my only outlet for expressing my emotions.

Could have named many ways how it should have went
There were many ways things could have gone differently.

Acting fake around a nigga being ignorant
Some people pretend to be fake around me and act ignorant.

Some hoes be doing this
Some women behave in certain ways.

Same dudes be doing that
Some men behave in the same ways.

Now I kick it to the neck cuz I don't wanna chat
I'm not interested in idle chit chat.

Peeping daily cuz I can't trust nobody
I'm always watching my back because I can't trust anyone.

All this ducking turn em into homebody's
Trying to avoid people turns me into a hermit.

What you really gone do when you got nobody
What do you do when you feel like you have nobody to turn to?

Don't ever tell a women what to do with her body
You should never tell a woman what to do with her own body.

Feds really stay watching and that's a fact
The authorities are always keeping an eye on me.

Capping daily for snap I find it really wack
Posting fake content on Snapchat is unappealing to me.

He think he came up strong for just a pack
Someone thinks they're doing well for selling just a small amount of drugs.

Get back yall boys ain't like that
Don't try to act tough, you're not really like that.

All this talk so where the funds at
There's a lot of talk, but where's the money to back it up?

Pussy barks but the nine gone bite back
If you talk smack, you might get hurt.

Play me once can't wait for the strike back
If someone tries to play me, I'll make sure to strike back.

Your niggas always geeked haven't left the house in weeks
Your friends are always high and haven't gone out in weeks.

Always got the gas on go she can feel it in her cheeks
He's always ready to go and she can feel it in her body.

Balling for the dream that comes with a lot of hate
Chasing your dreams also comes with a lot of negativity and criticism.

Moving like a demon when I'm pushing out a lot of weight
When I'm working really hard and hustling, I move like a machine.

Everybody screaming as soon as walk out on the stage
When I perform on stage, everyone is excited and screaming.

They don't know the meaning so I'm botta flip another page
People don't understand the real story, so I'll keep flipping pages and telling my story.

Some don't know the meaning of pain don't care to relate
Some people don't understand what it's like to experience pain, and they don't care to relate.

In the darkest sky a star is shining to today
Even in the darkest times, there's always something shining bright.

While they party for weeks I'm wining the day
While others party and waste time, I'm busy winning and being productive.

These Weatherford niggas got me out
Someone or something from Weatherford has pushed me out of there.

Now I sing the blues its my only way
Singing the blues is now my only outlet for expressing my emotions.

Ya, ya, ya
Just an exclamation or acknowledgement of something.

Shining my town shining
I'm shining a light on my town and showing them what I'm capable of.

For the Coastboys
This is for the Coastboys, whoever they may be.

This, this, for the Gutterboys
This is for the Gutterboys, whoever they may be.
