Lyrics of 'Energy' by Ryan Oakes

I used to have all of these people I'd die for, but now they're all dead to me
Homie I used to have people I tried to provide for, but now they all pray for the end of me
I had these people I tried to survive for, its crazy now all of them enemies
Now they're all people that I'll never try for I ain't got time or the energy
Its hard to look up, when everybody look down on you
Fuck, silently screaming and shouting you suck
Searching for meaning you down on your luck
You giving your best but it isn't enough
I ain't ever gonna let em break me

Middle fingers up if you wanna hate me
Living out a dream ain't nobody gonna wake me
Chased my passion now money wanna chase me fine
I just been going up while they decline
Better with time got me feeling like wine
I'm growing on people I'm feeling benign
If you hate it please head to the back of the line
I'm grinding I'll never be taking my time
Cooking them beats and I'm ready to dine
I take a shot at em I'm like a nine

To the dome or a knife to the throat and the spine
No back up no a plan b
That antagonistic vigilante
Man I run it on a beat like a stampede
Anybody anti me gets bansheed yup
They say I changed, I think I agree
I'm way outta range, the shit I perceive
Is free of the chains of society
So the people who reign, are all eyeing me
Thinking they can take me out, tryna take me down, oh man

Had a lot of friends, and they all went dead when they said that I have no chance
Anyone who wanna stop me, is getting dropped see
I think its time they get with the program
Cuz everybody left me dead way back when I had no fans oh damn
I used to have all of these people I'd die for, but now they're all dead to me
Homie I used to have people I tried to provide for, but now they all pray for the end of me
I had these people I tried to survive for, its crazy now all of themenemies
Now they're all people that I'll never try for I ain't got time or the energy
I cannot take a u turn on the road that I'm on, it only goes one way
Make no mistake I ain't in it for models or bottles, the glory and runways

The second they said that I couldn'ts the second I knew I would have it all one day
I'll be defined through my actions and not where I'm sitting on Sunday, AGH
I'm sick of hearing excuses, not hearing any solutions
Seeing these people give up from a couple of bruises
Acting like they ain't aware they were humans
Everybody knows natures abusive, then they run when life hits
From all of the punches and kicks all the pain that I took man I learned that I like it
I'd do it all twice its, what makes a man
Anything can happen when you take a chance
Every things yours homie take command
And do it yourself fuck shaking hands

I'm here to make a stand
To everybody who abandoned meIt turned real friends in to family
It turned fake friends in to fantasy
Straight myths, fuck all of yo vanity
Nobody can handle me, I'm off limits
Killing every record better call guiness
Running this shit like a small bidness
And its working out like its all fitness

Ya'll witnessing history in its making, and the world is still asleep
That alarm clocks over due I'd say its time to wake the sheep. Sheesh
I used to have all of these people I'd die for, but now they're all dead to me
Homie I used to have people I tried to provide for, but now they all pray for the end of me
I had these people I tried to survive for, its crazy now all of themenemies
Now they're all people that I'll never try for I ain't got time or the energy
