It's six o'clock I'm hoppin' out of the bed Rain fallin', callin' ex but my phoneline is dead I guess my bills ain't paid No ride to work for the day Second option hop the bus but there's a traffic delay My boss trippin' cause I'm runnin' late and ain't no excuse When I'm about to be 22 without a whip I could swoop Feel like I'm fixin to shoot my own dome with chrome to escape Zonin' out cause workin workin out ain't worth what I make My lady callin' buggin' always fussin' just cause we ain't ballin' But it's hard because her cousin is fuckin' rich cause her husband's hustlin' And I ain't fuckin touchin' nothin' but a mic Five o'clock and off of work ready to go home and write But I ain't got a buck to catch the bus, chillin' at the stop Rain fallin' hard as ever and it's soakin' my socks Fuck it, kick my kicks off and took off my jacket Roll my jeans up beat up and my headphones blastin' Blazed some weed up and started laughin' While I'm splashin' in puddles like Mothafuck a struggle we dancin' in the rain
[Chorus 1:] Don't nobody wanna dance slow in the rain Just move yo ass... just move yo ass Don't nobody wanna liberate the way to the pain Just move yo ass... just move yo ass
[Verse 2:] Sometimes I hate takin trips to the lab Got my pen and pad bookin' instrumentals in smash Catch the bus regardless Tryin' hard to be an artist But my A&R be callin' me out my zone into his office Bein' cautious cause he don't want my record to break Askin' me how I think my projects progressin' and shit I say cool but the truth is I'm stressin' a grip Cause it's hard to make music when this depression exists They say use it as inspiration, the best of them did But as the Mc I can't handle this pressure for shit And if you ask me stress is a bitch My girl needs more attention And my record label is desperate for hits Now I'm pissed cause I'm gettin' out the zone again Makes me start to dread when I see a microphone It ain't supposed to be like that I said I'll be right back I left the office, got a phone and called my partner Jack And I asked him, remind me why I'm rappin'? And right before he answered I remembered my passion in the past When I was scribblin' in my tablet to box out my mom and dads scrrappin' To help me when my grandmother passed Plus the many times I was homeless And the times when I was broke And this music made a way when I was hopeless He told me to remember the rain, it'll diminish the pain He told me not to ask him again cause I know
[Chorus 2:] Don't nobody wanna dance slow in the rain Just move yo ass... just move yo ass Don't nobody wanna [x3] Dance... slow... in... the... rain
