Ignorance feat. Self D

from The Reflection by edu

/

lyrics

Verse 1:
It feels like every night is another endless night
So I don’t even have to try, to stay up in this life
I’ll be here forever, regardless of what happens
And I hardly even sleep so all I do is imagine
Fashion, wealth, all of these things
Can’t even compare to the stuff that I dream
And while I’m wide awake, I’m just thinking of yesterdays
And how the person that I was is different in every way
I lost a big piece of me, when I started rapping
I guess you can tell a lot when you look at my expression
Sometimes I lose myself, when I look at my reflection
At the same I feel lost looking at the same reflection
How am I supposed to find myself when I’m looking right at it?
And the innocence that I had, is just lost by all the malice
Every time I hit the club I’m haunted by the same thoughts
Which girl is gonna fuck me? Or try to get me off?
It seems, like substance subtracted when I attracted more substance
And ever’y girl nowadays is bragging about who they fuckin
“Yeah bitch I did that, yeah girl I did him, don’t you wish your girlfriend was just like me?”
It seems like ladies now idolize that lifestyle,
But when they’re with someone they don’t want that going down
It’s like, we’ve become different then the lyrics that we’re listening
So why am I talking when, all I hear is IGNORANCE!

Hook (Edu & Self D:
All I hear is ignorance
All I hear is shit again
What happened to the romance?
Used to do it cause we loved it
Now we do it for the budget

Verse 2 (Self D):
I put blood, sweat, tears into this shit
It took a lot of time, put years into this shit
You think that all this happened yesterday?
Tell me something different I still ain’t getting paid
But it’s all good though, cause I do it for the love
I do this for the ones that I lost above
It’s sorta like something that I do just to chill
But it’s funny though, I hop on the beat and I kill
Every single thing, married to game, here’s my wedding ring,
(check it out)
Know what I’m about, see my time is now.
I be in the clouds, hungry and I’m on a prowl
Never sleep all night, in the booth like an owl
Homie you can never tell me different
See I got a mission, I advise your ass to listen
I’m in a position that I’ve never been in
Chilling with my nigga Edu, its about time we winning
Yeah, ive been sinning, it’s only the beginning
God forgive me for doing wrong
But I be venting out
I hope you listen to me
I just want you to know that I’m talking to you in a song
I have respect for you
I ain’t saying that music come first
But sometimes when you’re not there
Music shows up and I swear that that shit hurts
It gets worse.

Hook (Edu & Self D:
All I hear is ignorance
All I hear is shit again
What happened to the romance?
Used to do it cause we loved it
Now we do it for the budget
