Shemy - Echoes
Its been 10 years since my first album
Look at What I came from
East side, sleeping on couches
But I don't wanna play a victim
Cuz my grandparents were always there for me
Even when the world didn't care for me
Same story for all my friends
This for them days I couldn't buy me a Benz
Mamma just trying to get by on her end
I'm just trying to blow the fuck up
Well my OG's had different motives, somebody getting stuck up
I was out in Buc Town with BT
I had just flown back from New York
Sony passed, I was down and out
Hanging on to your love
All I hear is echoes echoes echoes (Yeah)
Echoes of your love
Got me fighting battles with shadows of ghosts who I once was (Oh)
All I hear is echoes echoes echoes (Yeah)
Echoes of your love
Got me fighting battles with shadows of ghosts who I once was (Oh)
All I hear is echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
I was in the studio, late night
Life felt like a movie, and I was a playwright
I'm just trying to hit the stage, get paid
What can I say, right?
From minimum wage life
To hoping on day flights
Type of money to save lives
14 Tracks and we were through
That was my struggle, from me to you
Spent all 09 up inside a booth
I heard in the hood they were gunnin' for me
Eye on the prize and I'm running toward it
My brother said he'd take the shot for me
To this day man I love him for it
If the record flops, and I'm unimportant
At least I thought you would love me through it, but all I heard was your
All I hear is echoes echoes echoes (Yeah)
Echoes of your love
Got me fighting battles with shadows of ghosts who I once was (Oh)
All I hear is echoes echoes echoes (Yeah)
Echoes of your love
Got me fighting battles with shadows of ghosts who I once was (Oh)
All I hear is echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
I was on the road to KZOO
Washing my hands of you
I'll no longer dance with you
At most out of principal
Cuz what is a man to do, when he turns to animal?
Looking at 20 years old, with no future or hope
You tore out my soul
I'm talking to hip hop if you didn't know
All of the flyers I left on my floor
Swore I didn't wanna see you anymore
But as I grew, we grew back together
And now I know I'm stuck with you forever
You were there when I bought my house, built a life
Married my wife, held my child, we back now, man it's been a while
I no longer hear your
All I hear is echoes echoes echoes (Yeah)
Echoes of your love
Got me fighting battles with shadows of ghosts who I once was (Oh)
All I hear is echoes echoes echoes (Yeah)
Echoes of your love
Got me fighting battles with shadows of ghosts who I once was (Oh)
All I hear is echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
