Mel Doro - Wasted Talent Lyrics

I don't want no drama (shesh)
I just want peace of mind
Phone on DND, I probably hit decline
I'm a legend not a felon who you telling
I can relate to this sin, sin
Losing your soul just to win, win
Losing your freedom for some summers
Hitting some pieces for some numbers
Killing your brothers for some colors
Blood on Dior he not the runner, shit
They reading the Bible repeating the cycle
Spending your money and fighting their rivals
Open your ears, this lesson is vital
I know the wave I listen to Tidal
Got on my knees and I pray for my mother
All of my brothers and all of they motto
Life is a test and I know i'm a leader
All the influence with no one to follow
I just stretch my hands, God
God just stretch my hands, cause somebody need the help right now
When the lights out and the fridge dry that's a pill that people swallow
Living for now don't know tomorrow
How we gon feed the babies now
All of these drugs and broken bottles
Cherish my past cause I grew a lot, look at that boy how he ricochet
Life gave me lemons I add a shot, pinky stay up with my lemonade
Nigga what's your goals
Nigga plant them seeds
I don't know bout you shit but I know bout me huh
Don't waste yo talent, life ain't cheap
Just run that race now, don't lose no sleep
I'm heading through the grapevine
Sun down, sun rise
Shotta boom bye bye, 'nother body in the cemetery
Karma came don't cry
Run for the cream like it's Ben and Jerry's
Karma came don't cry
Full potential but it's wasted talent
Yo yo
We don't waste talent over here
Yeah, I know you going through some shit but best believe life is precious
So cherish that shit, man
Don't let anyone or anything dictate your future
You in control, yo
My homie used to ball on the court, now his face painted on a tee
And you know they killed Chinx in the Porsche
And they killed Greg in the streets
Ye thou I walk through the valley, huh
All I see is blood on the leaves
Youngin' shy but he keep the glizzy on 'em
In the trap with the birds and the bees
You smart but you acting foolish
Stop hanging on the corner taking pics
Niggas f*ck with you cause you clueless
When the lights turn on you see them switch
Niggas trap for the wrong reason
I don't think that they want a better life
I'm thinking bout buying the house that they trap out of and monopolize the price
That's real shit
I feel the cloud over me, I know that it's God protecting I just count my blessings
Even when it's not safe, I feel like God protecting like a contraceptive
Niggas drive foreign cars with the GPS, still ain't got no direction
Every time I took a L to the face nigga I still had to self reflect it
Find your purpose gotta put the work in
How you gon stay stagnant
I don't know why your face tatted, niggas know that you ain't valid
This side we embrace failure, you gotta make shit happen
One thing that I never do
Is f*ck around and waste talent like
Nigga what's your goals
Nigga plant them seeds
I don't know bout you shit but I know bout me huh
Don't waste yo talent, life ain't cheap
Just run that race now, don't lose no sleep yeah
I'm heading through the grapevine
Sun down, sun rise
Shotta boom bye bye, 'nother body in the cemetery
Karma came don't cry
Run for the cream like it's Ben and Jerry's
Karma came don't cry
Full potential but it's wasted talent
Yeah, all this wasted talent
Yeah, all this wasted talent
Yeah, all this wasted talent
