Cale Sampson - Never Had a Choice lyrics
[Chorus] They used to say I shouldn't, I'm tellin' them I should They told themselves I couldn't, I proved to them I could They'll never understand, so let's make it understood ( This-Is-In-My-Blood ) [Verse 1] Took some time off, went back to the place of my birth For a minute disappeared from the face of the earth Had to get back in touch, thought my rapping sucked Compared to the first days, when my passion struck Since Open Canvas, I was stroking canvasses But everything looked, sort of hopeless and damaged Couldn't understand it, I'm my toughest critic I expect nothing but the best, there was nothing in it No message, Preoccupied with flow Whatever happened to that storytelling style that you know or you Don 't, "Whatever, now I don't give a What!" Almost said the F-word, but I don't need to cuss And I don't need the women, or the fans who don't listen I was never about being the man when I was beginning Made me feel better, just by writing things down I thought I could help others if I spread around And what a better way to spread it than through sound "It works", I watched as it started to compound And compound across cities to towns Until it almost compounded me into the ground man I tried but I think I let it get to my head "Just a lil' bit", no where close to 50 Cent Remember it only takes one stupid move To erase everything else good that you do [Chorus 2X] They used to say I shouldn't, I'm tellin' them I should They told themselves I couldn't, I proved to them I could They'll never understand, so let's make it understood ( This-Is-In-My-Blood ), I never had a choice [Verse 2] Some of my family fell in hard times No choice for me but to re-prioritize Had to save up, gave away like almost ten g's And that's a lot when you make four bills a week Financially responsible for more than myself Praying for a day I could reward myself And put some energy back towards myself Stressed out, I just kept on ignoring my health And time for music had been reduced to zero Lots of people realized that I ain't a superhero Never gave up, although almost everyday sucked I kept hope alive that I would find a way up Could have made a million off "The Facts of War" With major label support, promoting it to the world Realized you need to get your business in order Companies in Canada won't even invest a quarter And there's a lot more to success than "Just Skills" Costs more than you think, lets look at the bills Equipment, studio time, mixing and mastering Photography, website, promotion, packaging How could I be rappin', when this other stuff was happening I couldn't fall asleep, even after three aspirins Like all the sudden, everybody doubts you Fans stop believing in you and forget about you But I'm not done, ain't time for me to pack it in The fact that I've been through so much, is no accident Just stay with me, that's all I ask of friends I won't disappoint you no more, cuz' now I'm back again [Chorus 2X]Cale Sampson - Never Had a Choice - http://motolyrics.com/cale-sampson/never-had-a-choice-lyrics.html
