Rockin' Out

Yuh
Yuh
It's Khalil The Artist

I was down and out
Drowning in my pain
Thought it was the end
Death on my mind
Driving me insane
Lord forgive my sins
I saw the light
I didn't wanna stay the same
But they could never make me change
And I put that on everything!

So I been rockin' out
In the 419
Like i'm Elton John
I got it bad
Ain't no Michael Jack
But it's that thriller time
I'm breaking out
Of my broken mind
Gon' leave it all behind
This broken heart of mine
Has opened up my eyes
To what this world is like

They hear my sound
They speakers blasting loud
They know that I'm profound
If I get the bag
She'll be mine at last
But it'll never last
I'm the king of my city
I walk around with a crown
They follow the crowd
I've been on my own
But I still found my way out

Ain't got no time to rest
It's been 7 days since I last slept
God always puts me to the test
That's how I know that I'm blessed
Im dangerous and wanted
So they tried to put me under arrest
I got that bounty on my back like its the wild wild west!

So I do the dash
Five-O on my ass
But they cant catch
Someone thats this damn good at being bad
So I drive off and laugh
Think I done made them mad
But if I crash out and crash
Will you have my back?
Or will I have to be on that Yemen timing
and use the gat!

In high school they tried to jump me but they only left a scratch
And When they thought they were cool
I ran in one deep and ran it back
It was 3 to 1 but I came back yeah I feel like the cavs
Hit em with a right damn
Now that boy on his ass

But they could never knock me to floor
I knew how to fight since I was born
I always stood ten toes
And went toe to toe
Because violence is all I know
As these violins start playing slow
My opps start dying
And then I start to feel at peace and in my zone

Can't treat this like a chore
I guess that's why I never seem to fold
I ain't like you folk
I'd never fall so low to sell my soul
Man sometimes when I spit like this I tend to overflow
She didn't want the kid
She want me now
Don't want her anymore

Demons pistol toting
They got an issue with me finding my moment
Cuz on the inside there's still a boy that's broken
But I'm done with being hopeless
Time for me to shift my focus
Only chance they have of stopping me is if Hell freezes over

But it ain't over not until I say it's over
I been tryna stay sober and keep God ever closer
All these battles with myself turned me into a soldier
Walk away without a word that's how I got my closure

I was down and out
Drowning in my pain
Thought it was the end
Death on my mind
Driving me insane
Lord forgive my sins
I saw the light
I didn't wanna stay the same
But they could never make me change
And I put that on everything!

So I been rockin' out
In the 419
Like i'm Elton John
I got it bad
Ain't no Michael Jack
But it's that thriller time
I'm breaking out
Of my broken mind
Gon' leave it all behind
This broken heart of mine
Has opened up my eyes
