Fade to Black

Oh oh
Yeah yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I, I, I, I, I
No
Oh
Who knew I’d fade to black?
‘Cause I’ll take it back
I’m always feeling bad
Oh
Who said it ain’t so?
I try to grow
But it never ever shows
I been vibin' for days, sittin' in the studio
Tryna figure out a new sound (new sound)
Not riding the waves, I got you sinkin' in the kiddy pool
Better learn to swim or drown (or drown)
Put rhymes on the page for the purpose of a placement
Tryna find a way to pull the curtains off the stage set
Make the light shine on me (on me)
To get attention for the purpose of a paycheck
Sit down with me, let me educate ya (yuh)
Show you how the labels only lookin for the fakes ones
Flippin' over tables out of pure frustration
Feelin' like I’m taken for granted and wasted
Shit, it’s so discouragin' (yuh)
But I keep tryin' ‘cause I know for certain that
One day all this hard work will pay off (pay off)
But some say my only hope’s to get laid off (laid off)
