Blu & Exile - Dancing In The Rain

[Verse 1]

Look... it's six oclock I'm hopping outta the bed

Rain fallin callin X but my phone lines dead

I guess my bills aint paid

no ride to work for the day

second option:

hop the bus but theres a traffic delay

my boss is trippin cause I'm running late and aint no excuse

when I'm bout to be 22 without a whip I could swoop

feel like I'm finna shoot my own dome with chrome to escape

zonin out cause workin workin out aint worth what I make

my lady callin always fussin just because we aint ballin

but it's hard cause her cousins fuckin rich, cause her husband's huslin

and I aint fuckin touchin nothin but a mic

5 oclock and off work ready to go home and write

but I aint got a buck to catch the bus chillin at the stop

rain fallin hard as ever and it's soakin my socks

fuck it

kick my kicks of and took of my jacket

roll my jeans up beat up and my headphones blastin

blazed some weed up and started laughing

while I'm splashin in puddles like

muthafuck a struggle we dancin in the rain

[Chorus]

Dont nobody wanna dance slow in the rain

Just move yo ass. . . jus move yo ass

Dont nobody wanna liberate the weight of the pain

Just move yo ass. . . jus move yo ass

[Verse 2]

Somtimes I hate takin trips to the lab

Got my pen and pad bookin instrumentals in smash

Catch the bus regardless

Trying hard to be an artist

but my A&R be callin me out my zone into his office

being cautious cause hell when my records will break

askin me how he think my project progressin and shit

I said cool, but the truth is that I'm stressin a grip

cause it's hard to make music when this depression exists

they say use it as inspiration & the best of 'em did

but I still see that I cant handle this pressure for shiit

and if you ask me stress is a bitich

my girl needs more pretention and record labels desperate for hits

now I'm pissed cause I'm gettin out the zone again

makes me start to dread when I see a microphone and sh8t

and 'sposed to be like that

I said ill be right back

I left the office got a phone and called my partner Jack

and I asked him "remind me why'm rappin"

and right before he answered I remembered my passion in the past

when I was scribblin in my tablet

to box out my mom and dad scrappin

to help me when my granmother passed

plus the many times I was homeless

and the times when I was broke

and the music made a way when I was hopless

he told me to remember the rain it'll deminish the pain

and he told me not to ask him again cause I know

*Chorus x2*

Dont nobody wanna liberate the weight of the pain

Just move yo ass. . . jus move yo ass

Dont nobody wanna X3

Dance -- slow -- in -- the -- rain
