***LYRICS***
Always got my headphones on
On the bus riding with my headphones on
Catch me straight coasting with my headphones on
You can’t tell me nothing with my headphones on
Really I be writing
Sitting, thinking, focused that’s the reason I be silent
Fishing for ideas until the lightbulb starts to brighten
Hold up think I got one yeah the fish they started biting like
1,2,3,4
Carry on carry on
This won’t take me very long
Promise by the end of this you gon’ say it’s your favorite song
Even just the demo be creamy like Ben and jerries
Then I bring in the boys so they can put the final cherry on
Top top
Then we go and drop drop
Then we got the block chanting Apollo Bebop
Cycle never stops
Keep on taking shots shots
And they stay wet you gon’ have keep a mop mop
Someone call the janitor
He be getting cuz all the toilets we be jammin up
From dropping this hot sh*t Aint running out of stamina
We are on our way to make it prime time
But until then staying focused and that’s why I
Always got my headphones on
On the bus riding with my headphones on
Catch me straight coasting with my headphones on
You can’t tell me nothing with my headphones on
Really I just listen
Breaking down my work cuz homie I’m my biggest critic
Gotta pass the quality control before I pitch it
If it don’t pass then yup I just ditch it
I don’t settle for anything that is less than exquisite
That is my position
Care about the presentation like an aesthetician
Thank you for your two cents but we don’t need assistance
From him or her or you and them or any apparitions
No No We don’t believe in ghosts
Every word that I speak I wrote
Everything that you hear we play
We really really out here each day
No acrobats
No backing tracks
No razzmatazz
No flashing cash
If you had ask
The fact is that
It’s all passion that’s
In our habitat
Like yuh bruh this a labor of love
We mixing all of our blood
Sweat and tears in because
We realized that talent is game just ain’t enough
(No, No)
I ain’t gone be left in the dust
And thats why I…
Always got my headphones on
On the bus riding with my headphones on
Catch me straight coasting with my headphones on
You can’t tell me nothing
Now don’t disturb me I’m working
(headphones on don’t disturb me)
(got my headphones on don’t disturb me)
