all for you (ode to motivation) - dorian (2) lyrics
[intro]
i do this all for you
i do this all for you
[verse 1]
my whole life, i wanted to help
everybody else but myself
embar-ssed at birthday parties
cause it seemed like we the only ones who had some wealth
little did i know we ain’t have sh-t
my folks was just good at disguising it
nintendo, sega, penny’s, jordans
no room to sit at christmas
fast forward now, i’m a college kid
fascinated with love and relationships
i wanted to be a marriage counselor
but black people don’t believe in that sh-t
what’s my purpose, what’s my role
become a coach, that’s the new goal
phil jackson, pat riley
edit video like erik spo
but you had to be somebody
who was born to somebody
who knew somebody
or owned some bodies
first generation college grad
you lucky to even know your dad
i was a college coach, that sh-t was weak
slave mind, too much groupthink
like i said, i just want to help
people get to a level can’t get to by themselves
not an accident, my purpose is bigger
than sitting in this box making mid five figures
this cubicle got me feeling like a rat
got too many lives, that i can impact
i got too many rhymes, that are so d-mn smart
i got a serious gift that sets me apart
i got some serious truths to get out of my heart
and this verse was a good place to start
[hook]
i do this all for you
i do this all for you
just let me know you feeling it
just let me know you feeling it
[repeat x 3]
[verse 2]
self doubt starting to creep in
talk about your life, but where do i begin
i ain’t shot n0body, i ain’t sold no o’s
i went to college twice, i f-cked some hoes
got to find somebody, to record my speech
5 racks for a f-cking beat
f-ck you, i’ll find someone else
better yet, i’ll just do it myself
this software is so foreign to me
been better off learning swahili
does this kick, kick
does this ride, ride
is this hat too subtle
what about this b-ssline
is my voice too high, my voice too deep
how is my message going to be received
are my punchlines hitting
entendres connecting
does this feel like a history lesson
will the common fan, understand
will the hip hop heads, say i’m too bland
will dj’s have a track they keep playing
duck, what the f-ck are you saying
f-ck them, who gives a sh-t
they ain’t the reason you got into this
they some coward m-th-f-ckas with a bone to pick
you’re the one with multiple gifts
you did this to connect with the people
to be their intellectual peephole
to let them know, they are never alone
anytime they hear one of your songs
they appreciate it, they respect the fact
that you would even be concerned with that
congratulations, duck of nap
you got the smartest fans in all of rap
[hook]
[verse 3]
tired of these rappers singing about the same sh-t
they petty beef, they jealousness
no work ethic, they don’t work at it
the real fans, they don’t respect it
trying to stay tame
but there’s too many to name
i’m sick of listening to you weak -ss lames
polluting and convoluting the game
something’s gotta give, something’s gotta change
duck is his name, a soulish rapper
f-ck yo book, this a whole new chapter
i want my sh-t to save someone’s life
i want my sh-t to wipe tears at night
i want my sh-t to get you through college
i want my sh-t to give you knowledge
i want my sh-t to give you light
i want my sh-t to get you hype
hoodie on, head down
looking at your feet that’s on solid ground
this wasn’t how life was supposed to go
you’re only at peace when your eyes are closed
you feel like that n0body knows
your problems, your struggles
so you gotta f-ckin’ let go
and let this music inside your soul
bob your head, up and down
rockin’ to this f-ckin’ sound
give a f-ck who’s looking at you
they don’t know what you’ve been through
they don’t know what you deal with
and how you overcame that sh-t
so let them stare like something’s wrong
and rock to our f-ckin’ song
[hook]
[outro]
just let me know you feeling it
just let me know you feeling it
just let me know you feeling it
just let me know you feeling it
i do this all for you
i do this all for you
