letra de tension - james mac

[verse]
do i really want to throw it all away?
years of education built right to this very day
thinking ‘bout confessing, in this single bed i lay
no matter how i tell it, they gon’ be mad either way
‘mum, dad, i want to rap for the rest of my life’
they give me a horrified glare, it’s sharper than a knife
i look at them with two wet eyes, knowing i’ve disappointed
they paid money for a good school but now think it was all pointless
‘you want me to be a doctor, a lawyer or designer
but this job i like can bring me financially so much higher’
i’m beating round the bush, telling pros and not the cons
i ain’t telling the truth, separate the platinum from bronze

[chorus]
i use the word ‘tension’ to explain how i’m feeling right now
trying to concentrate but the ringing in my ears is just too loud
envisioning myself feeling empty when i look upon the crowd
i want to change this feeling inside me but i don’t know how
i use the word ‘tension’ to explain how i’m feeling right now
trying to concentrate but the ringing in my ears is just too loud
envisioning myself feeling empty when i look upon the crowd
i want to change this feeling inside me but i don’t know how
i use the word ‘tension’ to explain how i’m feeling right now
trying to concentrate but the ringing in my ears is just too loud
envisioning myself feeling empty when i look upon the crowd
i want to change this feeling inside me but i don’t know how

[verse 2]
people misunderstanding me, filling my body with rage
how you gonna clown me when i’m doing better than dudes triple my age?
how you gonna clown me when i’ve got proper aspirations
while you was checking your phone notifications
i’ve been aiming for radio stations and global domination
i’m never stopping, no dropping, no-ones topping me
ima keep on going until i’ve got my victory
everyone love to talk about my upbringing and school
everyone love to go behind my back and play me like a fool
but they ain’t know what’s in my brain
they ain’t know what i’m dealing with
they ain’t know i’m feeling insane
they ain’t know why i chose to spit
they ain’t know about my homie who wants to take his own life
they ain’t know about how he cuts himself with a blade, with a knife
and my spitting is a way to release the tension, the pressure
i’ll go to any measure to let out my stress, i’m depressed
i guess i’ll just get that blade and…
i ain’t gon’ get into that but let’s just say
that razor, i dashed it over some fields
my cuts will heal, i’ll feel like a better man soon enough
the restrictions of my creativity are my only cuffs
i’m a good, honest man just trying to make some music
i’ve found my talent and i’ve gotten up and used it
this ain’t even a track, i’m just thinking out loud
11 months of p-ssion spit out in one song to the crowd
to the people saying i make up my truths, f-ck you
to the people saying i’m too white to step in the booth, f-ck you
f-ck you, i don’t need you
in a couple years time i ain’t gon’ see you
you’ll be long gone while the real ones will have stuck around
i’ll be wearing a crown, no frown on my face
i’ll be wearing a crown while i continue to chase…
my dreams, no lean, no green, no distractions
just constant transactions and i’ll feel the satisfaction
i’m saying goodbye to this vibe
you know i got it for my tribe
i never switch, i just keep it real
i guess that’s why j mac appeals
this is my life and dear god
i’m hoping you do not disturb my legacy
you better be sorry or ima start revving my engine
i’m getting ready to teach all these motherf-ckers a lesson
another dimension
you can hate on me but here is my vengeance
i’m showing aggression, i know you’re guessing
i bet you feel the tension
but on the real…
at the age of fourteen i did know olders who were the plugs
i did have homies experimenting with a cl-ss drugs
i did decide to follow my dreams
and i still ain’t got no motherf-cking team
growing up you know i was in that private education
that and being white was a f-cking risky combination
and my blood relation did overlook my aspirations
i’m agitated but i’m never gonna shift concentration

[outro]
okay, let me break it down for you. i called this project tension because most songs here represent a form of pressure in my life. growing pains, fourteen and young being my struggles growing up in between a really wealthy area, and a really rough one. legacy and do not disturb being my worries of not making it and becoming someone in later life. baby and remember being my experience with girls. enjoy the next fourteen tracks, because this is just the beginning
