Cold Wind Blows by CalenRaps Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I ain't tryna be like them
I know I'm supposed to be different
Forever self quarantined and socially distant
Cause I got no time for nobody approaching me tripping
Or getting close to folks that's holding resentment
I call my brother up like "waddup my nigga we ain't spoke in a minute"
Said he broke and he think he gon' end up closing his business
But bro I still remember back when you had told me your vision
And how you wasn't letting go til it's finished, but dawg I understand
Life is hard and it only gets harder sometimes
It's lika an anchor brought us to the bottom of the water sometimes
In a coronavirus world, where it's like coughing's a crime
And niggas fall below the poverty line
It's all about dollars and dimes
But nothing matters more than quality time
So I should probably call my father when he crosses my mind
Cause the day gon' come when that ain't gon' be an option of mine
My pride's impossible to swallow sometimes
[Chorus]
I never fall down when the cold wind blows
Stranded outside in the rain
Waiting on tomorrow but I know how it goes
Trauma followed by the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Tryna to live without love is like trying to smoke without no flame
Don't underestimate the power that you hold inside your brain
I sent my ex a text and asked if she'd come over and she came
I let her know that I ain't over her and I never overcame
I'm still close to overdosing from an overload of pain
Hitting hoes while thinking lord I know I'm supposed to know her name
It's either Lori or Lorraine or is it Tori I'm ashamed
I can't be sure because I've surely still got shorty on my brain
I been absorbing up the game and I'mma tell you what I learned
There's a lot of things you'll put in, that ain't gon' ever be returned
You'll get backhanded backstabbed and set ablaze to burn
But you gotta still find time to celebrate what's earned
Took the blinkers out my whip 'cause I don't ever take no turns
Always kept it straight, don't let that pressure make me squim
Wrote my first verse and had my destiny confirmed
I just figured they would never be concerned
[Chorus]
I never fall down when the cold wind blows
Stranded outside in the rain
Waiting on tomorrow but I know how it goes
Trauma followed by the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
I waited my whole life for this
Now I think I'm right for this
Ain't even have to write for this
It's flowing from the heart, I see these
Niggas tripping and giving up on they vision
I'm just trying to make the music that's gon' show 'em out the dark
Cause I had nothing, not a fan, not a mic
Now I just might spend a band in a night
Shorty balance on the dick like she stand on a bike
Told her I'mma make her rich and I put that on my life
Got my niggas with me
These been my brothers since my younger days
Never been the type to be no slaves we all some runaways
I ain't tryna be like them
I know I'm supposed to be different
Forever self quarantined and socially distant
Cause I got no time for nobody approaching me tripping
Or getting close to folks that's holding resentment
I call my brother up like "waddup my nigga we ain't spoke in a minute"
Said he broke and he think he gon' end up closing his business
But bro I still remember back when you had told me your vision
And how you wasn't letting go til it's finished, but dawg I understand

So I should probably call my father when he crosses my mind
Cause the day gon' come when that ain't gon' be an option of mine
My pride's impossible to swallow sometimes
[Chorus]
I never fall down when the cold wind blows
Stranded outside in the rain
Waiting on tomorrow but I know how it goes
Trauma followed by the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
