Cleaning Out My Closet Lyrics - The People's Rapper - Jon Connor

I know this shit don't work out for everybody, but 

I ain't everybody 

I'm me 

You ever wanted something so bad you'd do anything for it? 

Feel it in your soul and people telling you to ignore it 

Like you could go to sleep, wake up and it be gone in the morning 

Your parents saying it's a phase, act like the shit ain't important 

People see your passion, intentionally try to kill it 

They mad at they self, for you chasing your dream and they didn't 

Cause the thought of you winnin' only makin' 'em bitter 

They think they hate you but they hate they self for being a quitter 

As time goes on they block it out and they try not to remember 

Can't escape it, gotta face it when they look in the mirror 

They was you at one point and they still tryin' to forget it 

But fear beat 'em in the end and they don't wanna admit 

How could they guide you or ever give you advice 

When half the time they complainin', bitchin' 'bout what's wrong with they life 

About all the shit they wish they could change if they could do it twice 

Just get it right the first time instead of rolling the dice 

They tellin' you the chance of makin' it is one in a million, they lyin' 

It's workin', you're the only one that was willin' 

They try to discourage you cause they know for them now it's too late 

Misery love company and they want you as a roommate 

Now your skin gettin' thicker hard to control your emotions 

When the lack of support comes from the one who's the closest 

When your mother and your father is what's throwin' your focus 

Y'all can argue all you want but this how you close it 

I'm sorry momma 

I never meant to hurt you 

I never meant to make you cry; but tonight 

I'm cleanin' out my closet (one more time) 

I said I'm sorry momma 

I never meant to hurt you 

I never meant to make you cry; but tonight 

I'm cleanin' out my closet

I think about all the friends I had that abandoned they hopes 

Living with regrets cause they tried to live up to they folks 

Or a destructive relationship that drove 'em off of they path 

They other half drainin' them of every dream that they had 

I seen women with a vision let a nigga distract 'em 

Have a plan, she get a man and she she start hustlin' backwards 

So preoccupied with him and drama with other bitches 

She be down and can't get up to get on top of her business 

I seen dudes that want the pat on the back from they chick 

Hell'll freeze over two times over, he ain't gettin that shit 

Because of this, his ambition is driven away 

Look in you for inspiration even if you gotta say I'm
