Lyrics No Hoodie - Cameron London

I hid behind the hoodie too long
This song is way more than personal now
Step out the house
It's something you are not gon see me without
It's like my shield and my sword
But it's got double edges
In place of my leverage
I used em as my pledges
But as much as they protect they hold me back
My comfort zone got different sizes
With the sneakers to match
I'm bully mode
Def Jam
You can't beat Joey crack
They always say
Take off the hoodie cause they think I'll react
If I'm honest it's for my mental health
It's so symbolic
Like the bunny when you googling Hef
Like the check on the nikes
Or the stripes on a ref
Don't matter if you know the meaning
If I know for myself
It's no hoodie this time
Need I remind you who I am
The Hometown Legend
But to some, I'll be Cam
This just a stop along the way to success
No hoodie
So you see the emblem on my chest

For too long I been working with my hoodie on
Through the sunshine and even when the winter gone
Though it gave me all the courage that I lack
I took it off cause I'm sick of holding back
For too long I been working with my hoodie on
Through the sunshine and even when the winter gone
Though it gave me all the courage that I lack
I took it off cause I'm sick of holding back

This hoodie just as meaningful as the fro
This hoodie been apart of me
I don't know how to let go
This hoodie seen me at my worst and helped me grow to my best
This hoodie got me through the times that I would start to regress
I hid my form to world just to set the boundary
Through all my safety measures somehow they found me
It's clear I been speaking in code to those around me
They keep interjecting their thoughts to try to clown me
But it's no use cause I'm set in my ways
It's no use cause I'm drawing the plays that they running
They see the field but can't see what's coming
Pacifism been my nature but I'm still headhunting

For too long I been working with my hoodie on
Through the sunshine and even when the winter gone
Though it gave me all the courage that I lack
I took it off cause I'm sick of holding back
For too long I been working with my hoodie on
Through the sunshine and even when the winter gone
Though it gave me all the courage that I lack
I took it off cause I'm sick of holding back
