Midnight Thud Lyrics

Midnight Thud lyrics

Yo, yo



I will not stop runnin' 'till I'm winning the race



I can't live with myself being in second place







[R.A. the Rugged Man]



Ay yo, here's a little story, something for your ear



Like the new millennium version of Paul Revere



Except this ain't fiction, this is real life here



I be 30 years old and even lasting a year



Yeah I made my mistakes, yeah I paid my dues



Hated by blacks, made enemies with jews



I was 7 years ahead of my time in '92



I said things that wasn't accepted 'till '99



It's awful, I don't care about the past no more



I don't wanna be rich, trust me, I'd rather be poor



Now think about it, known as how I never shown my face



I don't really want fame, I just want my space



Yeah, I had hard times like Run-DMC



But actually I feel pretty blessed just to be me



I never seen the penitentiary



I've been shook since I seen the ? kid in Penitentiary 3?



They say I should have been more, I should have been great



Like I'm washed up now, like it's already too late



I can feel all the hatred when I walk in the place



But y'all are too scared to say shit to my face, it's







[Chorus]



Midnight (repeated several times)



I'll come for you



When the clock strikes midnight



I'll come for you







[R.A. the Rugged Man]



Ready for hell, ready for war



Yeah, it's nice to be loved but I like being hated more



All the sudden magazines give me good reviews



It used to be my name on the equal bad news



All the ? that I'm a genius, all the ? I'm bright



Like I just now became intelligent overnight



I be as 1990 grimey as I could be



And finally society can see admiring me



And finally dirty dirty boy, dirty b



Wordy wordy free, dirty boy



Yeah that's me



My father specialist 5th class Thornburn John A



A Vietnam war hero, green berret



Thaught me how to shoot guns and thaught me how to fight



Thaught to left hooking, thaught to uppercut with the right



Thaught me all about bitches, they can ruin your life



Like in his prime, look what happened to I and Mike



People wonder what it's like and how is to be me



The most underrated in hip hop history



Think I care if you disagree?



You ain't got no song out



And right now you're busy listenin' me







[Chorus]
