I Love The Energy

[Intro]
What up, huh?
My name's Shames Worthy but y'all should know that by now
I got Sojourn on the beat
That's Tunnel Rat family
Here we go

[Verse 1]
Things are looking better now, I can't complain
Big Shame kicked cigarettes, I'm off the chain
But the nicotine fiend turned to caffeine
A monster with the Monster in the bloodstream
On the mic I mean, it wasn't like no boy rage
More like give me the mic and I'ma tear down this stage
As long as I pound one right before and snap
I'm good to go for the show, man what's wrong with that?
Well then it became an every day thing
A can was like Raphi's cup of coffee in the morning
Dang, but to make people shut up
Just put it in a coffee cup and then lay in the cut
Although it didn't sit well in my gut regardless
But I needed energy and it kicked the hardest
I'm a workaholic, that's what I prefer to call it
Cats were acting like my actions were diabolic
What can I say?

[Hook]
I love the energy
Whatever it takes to get myself moving in the morning
When I'm yawning, no pumping the brakes
I love the energy
Four shot espresso for me, heck no
But that's some folks' petrol seems
I love the energy
It feels great to be awake by the time you get to work
I prefer to stay alert
I love the energy
I didn't sleep so I'm popping vitamin B
You know me, I love the energy

[Verse 2]
Enough of that seriousness, I just had to get that off my chest
I guess let's keep it moving
I'm only rendezvousin' to be proving to you and your crew
That I'm sick with the lyrics I'm spewin'
Still room for improvement to get the head and neck movement
But if you groove and you dope in the circle, then prove it
Get it, step up, skip to it, hop out, rip through it
Whatever it is, 100 percent if you do it
Look at me, I'm on this mic giving you all that I got
As you can see, I'm a little bit heavy so I always feel hot
But even if I'm up here and I gas out, I'll rap 'til I pass out
You'll be saying he was killing it 'til the last millisecond when he blacked out
They carried him off and he even came back out
I'm telling you man, it was crazy, borderline amazing
Now that's a live show fo' sho' and you know

[Hook]
I love the energy
When I'm on the mic, I'm like you probably paid to get in
So I should be tight, right?
I love the energy
When I'm on stage
It's similar to an animal enraged that out of a cage
I love the energy
A little less Hollywood
Just an emcee tryin' to get the mic and spit good
I love the energy
Rappin' try and get it crackin'
Do what you gotta do, get right and let's make it happen

[Verse 3]
All I wanna know is where my live people at
Cause I'm up here working but I need to get it back
The energy when I rap from the crowd
Make it feel packed even if it ain't loud
We gon' make it crack
I'm tryin' to get it jumpin' something like Jehosophat
Everybody handclap or at least a finger snap
Better yet if you're worried about your rep
Gangsters and grown ups can two step
But if you don't wanna move like you too cool for school
Why'd you even come out?
Me I'm tryin' to dumb out, not take the fun out
So get your hands up high, don't even ask why
Go and grab the sky or at least the ceiling
Don't fight the feeling, we in the building
It's musical healing even if it's just for a minute when you're in it
Limitless unless you're timid, like I said in the beginning

[Hook]
I love the energy but I need to get it back
When I'm up here spitting a rap, don't wanna collapse
Where you at?
I love the energy, I'm tryin' to find some kind of sign
You feeling the rhyme, having a good time
I love the energy
Yeah it's like a partnership when I start to spit
And a bark and a hit with a spark it lit
I love the energy of real hip-hop
I take it up a notch as you can see hopefully
You know me I love the energy

[Scratches]
Make 'em clap to this
