Mick Jenkins - To The Melody Lyrics






But now love is so much better
And Lord knows if my words don't come together
Just listen to the melody
Cause my love is in there

[Hook:]
Just listen to the melody [x3]
Baby

A nigga feel like going in
Feel like letting out the bullshit I've been holding in
Music, school and money, on what should I be focusing
The jeopardy of choosing the wrong door and opening
Fuck it, take the music for a thousand, Alex
I'm tryna dress it right, I'm talking thousand island
I'm aiming for the pocket, I'm like a thousand linemen
I'm in the barbershop searching for the silver lining
Can someone tell me how much good will really come from this?
Is all that company gonna leave a nigga comfortless?
See Drake be talking bout it, how he let it come to this?
And if it's true then I don't know how he's functioning
But I'm thinking that's the only part you fear about it
Cause you can see my eyes gleaming when I hear about it
And everybody wanna flow when the boat ride
But it's like they all forget they got a fear of drowning

[Hook x3]

Lord knows they ain't never really had a chance
I'm just a killer that ain't never really got a plan
I just murder, whatever I do, murder nigga
I could have the white moving quicker than an avalanche
But I've never seen the purpose in moving a pound
When I can get the same paper from moving a noun
They tell me stop it, I'm laughing, they saying stop it
Bad bitches laugh this is just one big room full of clowns
I'm looking round like maybe I shouldn't be here
Fuck it I'll just stay and I'll have me a little feast here
And for dessert can somebody bring me a chocolate eclair
Those are one of my favorites, I'm eating until I make it
Lord knows I've been grinding too hard this year
Niggas gassed like I'm driving two cars in here
And even if they don't feel it, they felt the need to lie
So I'm thinking they thinking I'm going far this year
Trying to eat, fucking starving artist here

[Hook x3]

  38. K.... ....

    Listening to this while smacked >>

  39. j.... w....

    absolute banger!

  40. 2.... G....

    I hear a little bit of Andre 3000 in his flow on this track.

    2.... G....

    that's one of his listed inspirations

  41. E.... J....

    so genius. He's talking about contemplating his future and his ambitions. This makes perfect sense since this is from his first mixstape. He touches upon having several paths he can go down but ultimately choosing music. He questions how impactful his music will really be. Will it all be worth it. Will he accomplish his goal of spreading truth and love. He talks about how fame and success comes with its pitfalls such as your friends and people around you only trying to rock with you to feed off your success. Mick's music sheds light on real life in an enlightened way and can influence the viewer's life beyond just giving him/her some enjoyable sounds.

  42. T.... K....

    Taking Music for 1,000, Alex

  43. J.... S....
