Damn It Video (MV)

It's crazy you know as a youth
I would hear wipe them tears off your face
You grown now grown men don't cry
Now I got all these tears kept inside overflowing
Whenever I touch a subject that's kinda sensitive
Or I hear a sad beat and I'm like yo it ain't even that serious bro
What you tearin' up for what's wrong with you
Papa told me when you're grown you don't cry
So all the tears I never shed just flood my insides
But watch me watch me flow on every song til' the water runs dry
I'm grown now I know papa never wanted to watch his son cry
Yeah There come a time where you give it all you got or give up til' you rot
You ain't a true leader all your followers are bought your listeners are bots
You givin' everyone the cold shoulder woah bruh thinking that you hot
For myself I try to stay true to myself
If I touch you with my words know it truly was felt
From the bottom of my heart or deep in my veins
I can picture you listenin' so you see what I'm sayin'
They say there's something about me it needs to be shared
I can give you a present but I don't need to be there
Just lend me your ears while I speak to the air
And imma take you on a journey you don't need to be scared
Sometimes it gets dark but my vision is clear
Check the rhyme it's like I'm Q-Tip in your ear
A lot of us sayin' Phife I wish you was here
To revive on wax what we would usually hear
I know that times have changed mostly for the best
An unpopular opinion coming from a vet
All my dogs is sick and that's word to DMX
But I'm a different animal you ain't heard of me yet
Well imma make sure that you ain't never forget
The impression I left that time we first met
Or the first time you heard me and was like "oh sh*t"
Best bet just like Guru I'm one of the best yet still
Papa told me when you're grown you don't cry
So all the tears I never shed just flood my insides
But watch me watch me flow on every song til' the water runs dry
I'm grown now I know papa never wanted to watch his son cry
Sometimes I feel like I'm sick of this life am I living it right
Every day's a battle who really willin' to fight
Lemme raise the bar up to some brand new heights
All that weight on my shoulders yo that work was light
Or at least I'm glad to make it seem that way
Bro you'd cover your eyes if you had seen my day
Known nowhere except the local scene they say
Yet I'm gonna be heard from here to Zimbabwe
Livin' above my means so I don't rap bout no money
Still came a long way from wearing my clothes bummy
Tears inside but I laugh it so funny
How some people so close to me don't know buddy
Has the biggest fear of dying a nobody
Acting silly but kid I'm no dummy
I know watching you eat won't fill up my own tummy
So eyes on my plate before it go cold on me
Cherish what I have before it grows old on me
Watching my seeds blossom is so lovely
And awesome done enough so they don't go hungry
I wish 'em sweet dreams in a bed that's so comfy
And for those lookin'at me wrong and so salty
I got punch lines that knock and leave yr nose runny
Hard to decipher what the world want from me
My favourite person act like she don't love me
Maybe it's the kids they driving us crazy
Felt like yesterday she asked me if we havin' this baby
I Was a free man huh driving miss Daisy
But I be dammed if I blame 'em fo my insanity lately
Good fella Scorsese I know I ain't Jay-z
Still sometimes I come up with stuff that simply amaze me
The game is a maze g I get lost on the daily
And if I don't write a verse a day I feel like I'm being lazy
