Turn Me Up

Turn me up so that all the people hear me
 Beat so loud that it's 'bout to make my ears bleed
 If you haven't heard the message, you ain't heard enough
 You can get hype with the beat but turn me up
 I'm at a high school represent night
 I hated Lake Howell, but forget it, I'm in flight
 I want to share my life, but something ain't right
 I just realized that the drums are louder than my mic
 He's to into the percussion, now he playing reckless
 I'm surrounded in this room by all these blank expressions
 They can't hear a word I'm saying so there goes the message
 They can pinpoint my flow, but solely it's not impressive
 Could get 'em with a vengeance, but I want to make sure that I'm sinless in this
 Got to be mindful of the ones in attendance even though I'm feeling really vicious and offended
 I point to the mic then upwards as a gesture to turn me up
 Maybe this is what I get for trying to be fly. Fairy dust
 Dreams of a crew. Having people stare at us
 Wanted to spread the word, but didn't care enough
 Now I see the truth. I'm hype 'til I get a hernia
 When I'm on the stage the sound guy better turn me up
 Turn me up so that all the people hear me
 Beat so loud that it's 'bout to make my ears bleed
 If you haven't heard the message, you ain't heard enough
 You can get hype with the beat but turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 You can get hype with the beat but turn me up
 So Toke said he would pay for it
 All I have is one hour
 Don't say nothing, just prove something on an old friends new album
 I took a break for one year. Ain't show nothing new yet
 See the difference is I had a bad deal, but a deal at that nonetheless
 Not mad at you though. How could I blame you for me dissapearing
 I told you to love me and suddenly I was a ghost. I feel so embarrassed
 You had your hand on the knob. As soon as you wanted to turn me up I was gone
 Had to make a comeback, Mike Vick. That's a metaphor. Bury it, dog
 Bygones be bygones. My wrongs are my wrongs
 Someone said the Devil likes trees 'til his face met my palms
 Try God. I'm not really saying anything that you ain't heard of before
 But you let a lot of other things enter your life as soon as the stood at the door
 Don't say that. Fine, fine, here's a montage
 Malta sipping with hot fries
 High five. I can not die
 I'm not trying to be a wise guy
 I just know I am sent
 I can either just vent to you or call up the twins and throw an event, bet
 Turn me up so that all the people hear me
 Beat so loud that it's 'bout to make my ears bleed
 If you haven't heard the message, you ain't heard enough
 You can get hype with the beat but turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 You can get hype with the beat but turn me up
 I'm in Daytona 'bout to spread a message to the youth
 The soundcheck went great so now I'm ready, dude
 Palms sweaty, flow steady and I'm ready for action
 I start rapping my verse. Wait, what happened
 My mic is low. Ah man, here we go again
 The devil's in my ear. At least I know it's him
 I went over to my dude so we could switch mics
 I heard his verse and adlibs. The levels were just right
 But it sounds the same. I'm going insane
 Tripping all over the words. I'm nervous
 Feeling I could drowned in pain
 Crowed is swaying, but wishing I could serve 'em verses
 For the people that don't want to turn to churches
 Gripping the mic until it burn the surface
 For the guy that never hears a word in service
 These are the people that I'm wishing heard it
 See, I was that guy a few years back
 I couldn't understand preachers but could hear rap
 Normal praise and worship got me heated. Soul was near black
 Then I heard The Word in gospel rap and demons fear that so
 Turn me up so that all the people hear me
 Beat so loud that it's 'bout to make my ears bleed
 If you haven't heard the message, you ain't heard enough
 You can get hype with the beat but turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 Turn me up
 You can get hype with the beat but turn me up
