The Needle feat. Krizz Kaliko

歌詞

I once said in a cypher of famous friends back in 2011 "Who do I catch?" Outside of technicians' tunneled Tech vision At a point in time when dope is the new whack So it's safe to say we're in Bonnie says Cheadle On the outskirts of our army, we scare people But it's not for evil, up with hawks and eagles But I'm lost and feeble wondering if this restarts the needle Look around, do you spot Tech In front of seventy thousand at RockFest By the way he won the crowd does he got next To infect the mainstream or sell a lot less God bless my core fans still around We're here 'cause you held us down Love the way that you love my sounds But I'm still try'na break new ground Feels like I could blow out a fire with one breath Look at the sky in the sun set Sing a new song to change the mood And move mountains with my hands But just don't understand Why this needle just won't move Yes doing this for, yes doing this for, yes doing this for profit And my pocket's one dimension I wanna reach so many hearts and souls is my intention Since 2001 is when I started my ascension But in 2015 I went up just to get honorable mention Makes me wanna end it, I get so offended When they speak of genre breaking but no N9ne is ended Or friended I'm winded, my music's intrinsic But it's kinda looking like the needle ain't moving even when I did a killer with Kendrick Jimmy Kimmel was splendid, formally an attendant But when we were done it's like not one of them were mended Maybe it's my image and large amount of grimness My pen spits on them scripts Thinking I'm on a sin trip and then skit Rock on the range we had 'em flocking for Strange But it was a shocker when no rockers remained When it came to the game where they claimed Fame could get you big as the Beatles Yeah we got it this far but I really wanna push that needle I could blow out a fire with one breath Look at the sky in the sun set Sing a new song to change the mood And move mountains with my hands But just don't understand Why this needle just won't move Pardon me Lucas I was blessed to do a song with Marshall Mathers I was thinking when the emcees hear this they hearts'll shatter 'Cause the art's so radder than babblers with partial chatter But the garble swagger actors win it all, but this? Not a chart no latter, dark so daggered Why do nigga artists do this with me? Man it make me feel so good when they all really do skip the fee Slipknot, System Of A Down, Deftones, Doors got a few hits with T But the one thing that makes me wanna say screw this and flee Man I did it all this when music is free I could blow out a fire with one breath Look at the sky in the sun set Sing a new song to change the mood And move mountains with my hands But just don't understand Why this needle just won't move Now they gonna say "poor N9ne, please you're fine 'Cause you made it to the Forbes List 'bout at least four times" But since I wrote my first rhyme it's been war time To get the masses to see this talent deserves more shine So this year I sat at my very first Grammys Me and my partner Travis watching my peers go hammy I thought about all the awards these folks should hand me Man I swear I'd disappear if it wasn't for fans and family
