The People Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah
Lemme go lemme go
I’m still trying to figure out this road
Got my head up on his shoulder trying to get her out this moat
She needs sonic, she needs light
She sees life up on this mic
Tell her I'mma do it just to prove it
Gotta make you proud
Says the boy with the devilish look
Take a peak, he’s all alone
His papa left now he’s on his own
With no regrets just a broken home
So we told him he’s gon’ do it just to prove it gotta make them proud
When the earth don’t want us, and the heavens don’t look the same
We say

[Verse 2]
Deans list
We got weed and we got drinks
Basically an early grave

The good die young and the bad don’t live
I’m somewhere in the middle screaming out “what gives?’
We don’t pray and if we do, it’s always wrong and never true
That my loaf is on and I’m ready for lounging
Ready for first class on every outing
Mama said run and I’m on my quick shit
No days off till we outta business
Mixing watches, levy jeans, maxing g’s like money in the trees
Look around they are watching, they the ones that keep on talking
Why you dreaming, you should wake up, get your cake up, and try to break up
Me and my dreams

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
