Johnny Is Dead Lyrics

(lyrics are written by Spatty Deep (hope anyone will correct them soon))

Sometimes i phase out
when i look at the screen
When I think about my chance for me
to intervene

And it’s up to me to bring back the hope look
Feeling in the music that you could quote

Not saying that I hate it cause here
I kinda dig it
But what good is a’ ear
if a Q-Tip isn’t in it

So to stick it in
and inform your friends
Your boy from the hood
Is on that shit again

He has upped the degree's
And dropped the mercury
To splash on the mass
from low to upper class
And win the records spins
That Sometimes goes a win
A fickleness of friends
they sometimes hate again

They always bring up tribe on me
Could not suprive on me
‘cause this is my man’s on me
‘cause this is my fams

And here’s somethin’ new
It’s front row for you
So don’t misconstrue
‘cause tribe hold it true
My due sue hassle heart
Don’t stop
Your repertoire
As long as you could see
It’s you who’s staying we

‘cause life is filled with mer…
pills and little pearls and shit
I’m fucking up
I mean
I’m tripp’n up

But still
There is a boy
Them people get annoyed
Who’s focus is on the feel
Before we get a deal

Come on!

Think it if life can be a thing
That wilderness is wild to me
But you gotta know
I see we’re just the same
Figure it out where we should be
where we should be


movin’ on we came to
prefect on the street
let’s take it a pause
and ensure we eat
and Oprah and nem'
they criticize the boys
when I entertain they make
all the noise they can’t keep it down
we're Dominant and Brown

And those of other shades
They joy up a way
But wait this frame to add
Like bra… and ........
And magazine debris
A shit
She gotta see it

I’m no different to you
I goes through it too
I dumpes through the pages
I don’t come a age

I’m not a Diety
I’m far from perfect see
I roll the tumble weed
It’s just a humble scene
That I present to you
Is just a mister crue
Who burrs a harmony
And sum a melody
Just speaks to where we are
And don’t a hopes a jar
A soon we’re walking in
A blim to just to say
A come on!
