Q-Tip - Johnny Is Dead Lyrics

Send "Johnny Is Dead" ringtone to your cell

(verse i)

Sometimes i phase out when i look at the screen

And i think about my chance for me to intervene

And its up to me to bring back the hopeful

Feeling in the music that you can quote

Not saying that i hate it

'cause yeah i kinda dig it

But what good is an ear if a q-tip isn't in it

So this year get in

And inform your friend

Your boy from the hood

Is on that shit again

He's upped the degrees

And dropped the mercury

To splash on the mass

From low to upperclass

And when the record spins

It sometimes blows a wind

A fickleness of fans

They sometimes hate again

They always bring up tribe by me

Could not survive i mean

This is my mans i mean

This is my fams

And here's somethin' new

It's front row for you

So don't misconstrue

Its tribal and true

My dudes who hustle hard

Will stop your repetoire

As long as you can see

Its you who's stayin' free

'cause life is filled with 'cerns

Keep pills and little burns

And shit i'm fuckin' up i mean

I'm trippin' out

But still there is a void

And people get annoyed

Let's focus on the feel

Before we get a deal

C'mon

(chorus)

Figuring life can't be a thing

The wilderness is wild to me

But you're not alone i see we're just the same

Figuring out where we should be

Figuring life can't be a thing

The wilderness is wild to me

But you're not alone i see we're just the same

(verse ii)

Moving while we can

To put back on the street

Let's take care of ours

And ensure we eat

And opening in

They critize the boys

Without enmity

They lose all the noise

They can't keep us down

We're dominant and brown

And those of other shades

They join our parade

But wait there's rain ahead

Like brit and kevin fed

And magazine debris

Its shit you gotta see

I'm no diff'rent to you

I goes through it too

I thumbs through the page

I don't come of age

I'm not a deity

I'm far from perfect see

I roll a tumbleweed

This's just a humble seed

That i present to you

Its just a mr. groove

With words of harmony

And soon a melody

That speaks to where we are

The door of hopes ajar

And soon we walkin' in

Uplifted just to say

C'mon

Chorus 2x
