Matinee by TT17 Lyrics
[Verse]
Everything I dreamed of is comin’ matinee
I was 7 years old, but my dreams have been the same
Dreamin’ of sold out venues, screamin’ out my name
Wake up in reality, then I’m grindin’ for the fame
You see the end results, but that’s really less than half of it
Play back all of my songs, you won’t hear one that I’m actin’ in
You won’t see me flexin’ money, but trust me that I’m rackin’ it
I put out a hit for some good music, I found it like I’m trackin’ it
I’m trackin’ it, like I’m UPS
I’m ‘gon keep goin’ , ‘till my last breath
No more depression, got rid of it last year
Right now, no cap, I thought I’d be dead
Dead like the artists who runnin’ thе game
No bars, no flow, they soundin’ the samе
That snake VA told me to change my name
To what? Boy, this why you lame
But I’m not gonna diss you, I gave you a track
I’m sick of these people stabbin’ me in the back
I heard that it’s good to find what you lack
I’m hard on myself so I can give back
Told Mom and Marc I’ma buy ‘em a mansion
Give ‘em a blueprint, Agoura expansion
They stood in the corner, now hater’s be dancin’
I’m droppin hits, so call me Jansen!
I’ll run up my numbers like I’m a statician
I’ll run up my money like I’m a magician
Got skill, no luck, ain’t no superstition
Was 7 years old, God gave me a vision!
Told me I’ll shine and I’m gon be a star!
I’m takin’ a walk and they honkin’ their cars!
Tellin’ me I’m great, they lovin’ my bars
While I think to myself, “Damn, I made it far!”
“I made it far, I’m shockin’ the world”
I look at my phone, got texts from the girls
I’m keepin’ ‘em guessin’ , like, they do a twirl
Got my eyes on one, I’ma give her the world
She’ll be my queen, me and her? Team
9:00 hits, and she runnin’ the streams
Playin’ the album, said this is her anthem
I’m chillin’ yet trillin’ , life feels like a dream
No more nightmares, I’m on cloud 9
I’m gainin’ some traction, damn, it’s about time!
Just waitin’ for labels to be cured from blind
So they could see me and then ring up my line
Ring up my line, here is the number
310- get the last ones with hunger
One hoe got mad that I wouldn’t touch her
Now she wanna slumber? I’ll call up your mother
And tell her about the slut she raised!
Go to the doctor, you can't’t be saved!
Smokin’ it daily, 365 days
You told me you changed? Man, give me a break
But I ain’t ‘gon lie, I wasn’t fine
You came to me at the perfect damn time
You looked at my eye, lie to my eye
So i went to the rhymes, I’ll give you a line
Or maybe and album, 6, ‘Memory Lane’
You fadin’ away, but the memory stays
Had me on a string, you thought I was lame
You played my heart, like I’m a game
But I ain’t gonna simp, I am a king
Gettin’ my bread up, $3K on bling
I trust in God, and His Holy Wings
He’ll bring me home, I’m rackin’ the streams
I’m rackin’ it up, I’m world’s above!
Now I just want a girl to love!
Give her a ring! Look at the dove!
DTLA, I’m havin’ fun!
I think I was a bit of a mess
Better than last year, no break from the stress
Wow, I settled for less?
I found my worth, 17 bless (17 bless)
Everything I dreamed of is comin’ matinee
I was 7 years old, but my dreams have been the same
Dreamin’ of sold out venues, screamin’ out my name
Wake up in reality, then I’m grindin’ for the fame
You see the end results, but that’s really less than half of it
