Songtexte What It Sounds Like - Robin Raps

Like you, like everyone, I'm gonna die
And thank God for that, cause without a deadline
We may never actually do anything
And some people don't anyway
But me? I'm gonna ride until that day comes
And when it does, there's just one thing I wanna know
I wanna know what it sounds like

I got it on the ropes now
Got the line and the slope down
Casper, this a ghost town
Somebody call Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd
Somebody get Ernie Hudson in here
Bout time that we hit em up
Cause God damn, there's a lot of us
It's been too many coffee cups that I sip from
On the mornings of the days I treat like they'll last forever
And September is on the way, got em singing "wake me up when it ends"
It's Green Day or green grass that you dip your feet in
And this side of the fence, we play the Earth, Wind, and Fire version of the season
Look, the hook coming and so is the last day
So, baby, Ima shoot, Ima fade away
Honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way
And when it's my time, I bet it sounds like this

I bet it sounds like
One left foot, one right foot
A hundred trumpets
And everybody that I poured one out for calling my name
They saved every single drop and they dap me the same as they used to
Yeah, yeah, just like they used to

Ain't I had a time, ain't I done it right
Ain't I made mistakes, tried to make em right
Ain't I took a risk, ain't I shined bright
Ain't I took all seasons, made em springtime
Ain't I had a time, ain't I done it right
Ain't I made mistakes, tried to make em right
Ain't I took a risk, ain't I shined bright
Ain't I took all seasons, made em spring

Time for the last verse, and if this really be mine
The HI-C Fruit punchline gonna be so juicy
Yeah, it's boutta have too much flavor
What would you do now if there was no later?
Something I ask myself
My self like, boy, you know the answer well
Make music, chase liquor with hi fives
Indulge camaraderie, don a big smile
I once was a young rugrat with a Cers cap, few years went by
Turned to a young Kit Kat with a peach fuzz mustache
These days, I'm a young man, and I learned that
This life ain't a search for a climax
Smell the lilacs, breathe into the moment
Happy deathday

I bet it sounds like
One left foot, one right foot
A hundred trumpets
And everybody that I poured one out for calling my name
They saved every single drop and they dap me the same as they used to
Yeah, yeah, just like they used to

Ain't I had a time, ain't I done it right
Ain't I made mistakes, tried to make em right
Ain't I took a risk, ain't I shined bright
Ain't I took all seasons, made em springtime
Ain't I had a time, ain't I done it right
Ain't I made mistakes, tried to make em right
Ain't I took a risk, ain't I shined bright
Ain't I took all seasons, made em springtime
