Arrested Development - I Don't See You At The Club lyrics

[Intro] Yo, are y'all even still doing anything, cause I don't hear y'all, see y'all in these streets We're always up in the streets. That's where we be at. We be in the streets Nah, nah, I mean like, is anybody feeling y'all? I think so. If they're smart I don't even know what to say to y'all. I don't-- I don't-- you know-- [Verse 1] Got the pear trees faking like a dogwood And thunderstorms in the springtime, it's all good And rappers k**ing it in the club, but can we brag now? Now Black lives just had to die to get a flag down And my rap is up the map in southside Atlanta Was just a cell [?] 50 years march in Alabama Was just at Columbus, Ohio teaching little kids South ? southwest are teaching sampling Now gynecologists will do a lot of interviews And are making some nice figures like a gym will do And like Sandra Bland, my band be changing lanes Without a signal at all, now you want us to hang? You know some things are substantial whether or not financial And playing us with the other stuff way up on the mantle So don't try to adjust your radio, don't change your channel We're taking down the glittering lights and just light a candle [Hook] He said, "I don't see you at the club" I said, "I don't see you at the bank" People gotta live their life and do their thing Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me He said, "I don't see you at the club" I said, "I don't see you at the bank" People gotta live their life and do their thing Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me He said, "I don't see you at the club" I said, "I don't see you at the bank" People gotta live their life and do their thing Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me [Interlude] I mean is anybody checking for Arrested Development? [Verse 2] Yeah, I'm seeing marriages dying just like miscarriages We've been at it 2-0 years changing the narrative Fathered 2 by 2 kids, plus to add to my parody We took on a teen in a desperate need of a family He was jacking cars and some other type of insanity Playing the role like media says, "This is humanity" Blacks is getting smoked with police taking the toke They hate it when we do stand up, and yet they like a joke The people losing hope to where most of them don't vote And rap has turned into trap, and dope really means dope I try not to be someone I don't know Look into a mirror, is it friend or is it foe? Or is it both? Should I swim or should I float? Should I blend in within the scene that fits me most? Should I live life, try to fight for what I know? What I know is that my real life starts after the show [Hook] He said, "I don't see you at the club" I said, "I don't see you at the bank" People gotta live their life and do their thing Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me He said, "I don't see you at the club" I said, "I don't see you at the bank" People gotta live their life and do their thing Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me [Verse 3] Finally consoling from years of mine that was stolen A sea of creativity coming just like an ocean I'm falling in love with music as if I drank a potion My rhyming and my producing has never been more potent I've overcome my challenge and life has been more in balance And people want to judge me on everything but my talent They're saying that I'm old like it's something I can't control Aging is part of the package deal of having a soul And what do we know? All you gots to do is play the role Of living life and just breathing, lines start to recede n' Things you start to believe in, [?] that you seeing Regardless of your hue, it's just common to human beings You tell me that using strength is wasted on the young And that everything that you have been in has been wasted on some fun But I believe that I can have fun until I'm deceased Just please play this song in the clubs and in the streets I'm out [Hook] He said, "I don't see you at the club" I said, "I don't see you at the bank" People gotta live their life and do their thing Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me He said, "I don't see you at the club" I said, "I don't see you at the bank" People gotta live their life and do their thing Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me Let me live, let me breathe, let me be me
