Mindless
YONAS Lyrics

Yo it's back on the top of the map now
I am at the top of my game now and ready to dominate the industry again.

Everybody else might wanna back down
Others should step aside because I am about to take over.

Bout to to link with Shake and turn 2DopeBoyz
I am about to team up with Shake and turn 2DopeBoyz into a successful venture.

Into a certified crack house
Together, we will create something that is so addictive and successful that it will become like a crack house.

I'm the man nigga
I am the best and most successful among others.

C.O.D. is the clan nigga
My group or clan, C.O.D., is the best.

This that joint that'll make you swallow your words
This song or collaboration is so good that it will make others admit their wrongs and acknowledge my success.

If you think that I'm playin with ya
Do not think that I am joking or not serious.

Only thing I fear is the most high
The only thing I am afraid of is God.

I been knocked down but I'm alright
I have faced defeat but I am still okay and strong.

Cause I keep that faith by my side
My faith keeps me standing strong.

So there's no need for the 4-5, alright
I do not need a gun because my faith gives me strength and protection.

I don't even really hear the shit ya'll talkin'
I do not pay attention to the negative talk of others.

I'm runnin' laps while ya'll still walkin'
I am way ahead of others in terms of success and efficiency.

Guess I'm just that man on fire
I am extremely driven and motivated to succeed.

No Denzel or Christoper Walken
I am not an actor like Denzel or Christopher Walken.

Don't blame me, blame God
I give credit to God for my success.

Blame my father, blame my mother
My parents have played a significant role in my success.

Sorry ya'll, you know I love you
I apologize to those who are not as successful as me, but I still love them.

But you're the reason I'm ahead of the others
The support and influence of others has helped me become successful.

I'm thinkin' on my feet
I am always coming up with new ideas and strategies quickly.

This shit's beyond the streets
My success and ideas are beyond the typical street-level mentality.

Ya'll lookin' tired
Others are looking exhausted and worn out in comparison to me and my energy.

Best be careful not to fall asleep
Others should be careful not to lose focus and become complacent.

Got me feelin' so mindless
I feel lost and desensitized by the industry and what it takes to succeed.

I feel like I'm blinded
I feel like success has taken away my true sense of vision or perspective.

It's trouble just finding my rhythm
I am struggling to find my true passion and purpose in the midst of success and pressure.

And knowledge is timeless
Knowledge is always important and relevant in any industry or situation.

But they'll never find what I give em'
Others will never be able to replicate the unique and special things that I offer.

You got me feeling like nothing baby, nothing at all
I feel unimportant and insignificant towards others or the industry.

Got me feeling like noone answers me when I call
I feel lost and alone in the midst of success and pressure.

So I'm stuck in this mindless rhythm
I am trapped in a cycle of success and pressure that is leaving me feeling lost and disconnected from my true self.

OK, I got this rap thing
I am confident in my ability to succeed in the rap industry.

And I'm all good for the scrappin'
I am prepared and willing to fight for my success and place in the industry.

If you feel like no one pays you anymore Ma
If you feel unappreciated and forgotten Mom.

Cause I'm more happenin'
Because I am more successful and important now.

From the boogie down Bronx
From the Bronx neighborhood of Boogie Down.

All the way down to the lower east side of Manhattan
From the upper area of Manhattan to the lower east side of the same city.

From Brooklyn's brook over to Queens
From Brooklyn to Queens in New York City.

Across to the island of Stanton
Over to the island of Stanton, possibly referring to Staten Island.

Yo these my parts
These geographical areas are where I am successful and well-known.

All I can do is on my heart
Everything I do is based on my passion and drive.

As I swim around these sharks
As I navigate through the competitive industry and avoid danger from others who may wish me harm.

I reach high for the billboard charts
I aim for success and recognition on the Billboard music charts.

Yo Divine where you at
Asking for the location of Divine, who may be a producer, collaborator, or friend.

North Carolina's on the map
Referring to the success of hip-hop artists from North Carolina, including J. Cole, in the industry.

Let's drop the world on they fuck in heads
Let's create something so impressive and successful that it shocks and amazes others.

Then put that shit back on our backs
After achieving success, let's reinvest in ourselves and our careers to continue to grow.

New world orders on the way
A new era or phase of success is coming.

All I do these days is pray
I am grateful for my success and rely on my faith to sustain me.

And I know my days are numbered
I am aware that my success may not last forever and I must continue to work hard.

But I got so much to say
I have a lot to share with my fans and others in the industry.

So I try to slow them down
I try to slow down my thoughts and refrain from getting ahead of myself.

But I'm feelin so profound
Despite my efforts to slow down, I feel deeply connected to my work and success.

My success is in my spirit
My success is not just external but also internal and personal.

You can hear it in my sound
My passion and drive can be heard and felt through my music and performance.

It's a wrap now, I could never back down
I have achieved so much success that I cannot and will not back down or give up.

Got so many people rootin' for these raps now
I have a lot of fans and supporters who want me to succeed and keep making great music.

Got me feelin' like it's more than white and black now
I feel like success is about more than just race or ethnicity, and that anyone can achieve it with hard work and dedication.

Guess I've come a long way, yeah [x2]
I have come a long way in my career and life, but I still have much more to achieve and experience.
