Yelawolf
This song is directed at the criticism of Yelawolf’s releases under a major record label. This song is off Yelawolf’s second independent studio album since Creekwater in 2005, and his first since departing from Eminem’s imprint, Shady Records, and its parent label, Interscope Records.
In this song...
[Verse 1]
Black boots, red cup
Brown liquor, no suds
Some bad motherfuckers just rolled up
Yeah
Firecracker, short fuse
I pulled the plug out on you like a corkscrew
No limit, no curfew
Yeah
[Chorus]
To get everything I wanted in this lifetime
I had to put my beliefs on the front line
In every song that I sing
It's always been you and me
Tell my baby it'll be another late night
I left work eight hours after midnight
No breaks, no sleep
And it's always been you and me
[Post-Chorus]
You know it's always been you and me
[Verse 2]
Long money, no short change
You're still hatin', poor thing
Middle fingers up, tell you one more thing
Yeah
Ya can't hear me, let me dumb it down
I'm slum by nature from a small town
We tote guns by nature, no showin' out
Yeah
[Chorus]
To get everything I wanted in this lifetime
I had to put my beliefs on the front line
In every song that I sing
It's always been you and me
Tell my baby it'll be another late night
I left work eight hours after midnight
No breaks, no sleep
And it's always been you and me
[Verse 3]
Like a raven over the grave, I get lost over the page
I'm in tune with my spirit, doing shrooms, trip for days
Eighteen with the plats, in the projects with the raps
White boy with the blacks, from the sticks, I crossed the tracks
Rock and roll, rolling stone, daddy left his pistol home
Load it up, shooting bottles off the porch to his songs
I was troubled, I was hurt and it bubbled to the surface
Took it out on writing songs, put that seed up under the dirt
God gave me water (Bless,) two sons and one daughter (Bless)
I prayed and prayed harder (Now I) work hard and play harder, I
Visualize, put thumbtacks over outlines
And when they said I was out of my mind I put more goals in the pipeline, this is my time
[Chorus]
To get everything I wanted in this lifetime
I had to put my beliefs on the front line
In every song that I sing
It's always been you and me
Tell my baby it'll be another late night
I left work eight hours after midnight
No breaks, no sleep
And it's always been you and me
[Outro]
You know it's always been you and me
You know it's always been you and me
