lirik lagu violence within the violin – nomis [rapper]
v1:
its hard to admit but i’ve got issues that are irking me/
but first heres some perspective of my life out here on mercury/
my main supporters ain’t from dopeboyz or rapzilla/
’cause my raps are more macklemore than mineo and mac miller/
and thats not a co-sign for mack or diss to min and miller both/
its more about the social aspect in my rap as an approach/
i found i had a p-ssion for the broken and it stuck with me/
not coming out through rapping for me just wasn’t a luxury/
words formed, i wrote songs and felt the lord was honored/
but he didn’t bless it how i expected that had me ponder/
so i figured, “i guess the world ain’t ready yet”/
but when they start asking for human trafficking raps im here already set/
next thing you know im seeing all these songs and poems/
most the artists weren’t established, but a few of them i know ’em/
and ya’ll get recognition now for knowing?/
man i wrote those bars years ago, this must be how it feels for leonard cohen/
a san diego visionary like im dannu/
my platform wasn’t large enough i started acting brand new/
and honestly in hindsight, i really think the fam knew/
a dream junkie showed me his poem and i tried to ban ru/
from spitting that trafficking piece that he created/
like i had a monopoly on everything justice related/
i tasted and started to smell the fumes of that bitterness/
i was consumed by my bitterness/
the sooner i admitted it, the sooner i could fly again/
it shot me to my core i really considered retiring/
you can hear the violence within the violin/
another rapper falling victim to ent-tlement/
hook:
shameful when i’m looking back, painful from the memory/
confusion it was sent to be my enemy (20/20)/
shameful when i’m looking back, painful from the memory/
community was sent to be my centerpiece (20/20)/
it never bothered me the growth of awareness/
why was i bothered when they spoke i’m embarr-ssed (20/20)/
i never minded if other people said it/
in hindsight i was blinded because i wasn’t getting any credit/
v2:
so there i was forced to step back and view myself/
i hated what i saw i can believe i’d loose myself/
in 2008 for me was the start of it/
educated myself on the issue and grew a heart for it/
that same year, i put my art to it/
and wrote, “on behalf of the silenced” i just wanted to play my part in it/
nothing was more important than building the movement/
and perfect timing ’cause that time my rhyming sk!lls were improving/
and i can honestly say, the mission never left essential/
but that full time rapper grind is a k!ller when the rents due/
it adds a certain pressure that music was never meant to/
so without the bills this might’ve been something i never went through/
but no more excuses, i’m done with the scapegoats/
how dare i complain, my little place has got a gate code/
my heart crossed hand on a bible i’ll say i’m grateful/
but its hard to show the darkest parts of me because i hate those/
do you know how much it makes me boil/
when they progress the cause and i respond as if un-joyful/
do you know how hard it is to admit/
that you’ve let your ego in but you pretend it don’t exist/
well im done with it i’m free from it/
look back and i see from it/
learn now how to flee from it/
may he summit and me plummet/
no more of “me” homie we’ve done it/
shout to every artist out who’s ever reaped from it/
i celebrate your work we’ve got the same -ssignment/
in the same gang, same goal, maybe different environment/
i embrace the violence within the violin/
never again will be a victim of ent-tlement/
hook:
shameful when i’m looking back, painful from the memory/
confusion it was sent to be my enemy (20/20)/
shameful when i’m looking back, painful from the memory/
community was sent to be my centerpiece (20/20)/
it never bothered me the growth of awareness/
why was i bothered when they spoke i’m embarr-ssed (20/20)/
i think i minded that your way was accepted/
my hindsight has given new life and some proper perspective/
