Raury - Blood On The Leaves (Acoustic Cover) Lyrics






[Verse 1:]
I just need to clear my mind now
It's been racin' since the summertime
Now I'm holdin' down the summer now
And all I want is what I can't buy now
Cause I ain't got the money on me right now
And I told you to wait
Yeah I told you to wait
Now time's the only thing I can't buy now
Cause I ain't got the money on me right now
And I thought you could wait
Yeah, I thought you could wait
These bitches surroundin' me
All want something out me
Then they talk about me
Would be lost without me
We could've been somebody
Thought you'd be different 'bout it
Now I know you not it
So let's get on with it

[Verse 2:]
We could've been somebody
'Stead you had to tell somebody
Let's take it back to the first party
When you tried your first molly
And came out of your body
And came out of your body
Running naked down the lobby
And you was screamin' that you love me
Before the limelight tore ya
Before the limelight stole ya
Remember we were so young
When I would hold you
Before the blood on the leaves
I know there ain't wrong with me
Something strange is happenin'

[Verse 3:]
See I was just seventeen in the summer
I had not met your mother
We had a flirtatious history and you invited me over
Spent the day, told me you and your mans was over
I should [?] a little closer as if I was casanova
Your bro's a smoker, he offered me the blunt
I was sober but it was summer so fuck it man, I was living
In living rooms and [?] intruded my lungs
And excuse my rudeness cause uhmm, I never even needed it
I mean that weed I hit, did not effect me
Cause you been there already, I was high off the vibe
And I felt so alive, so alive I could dive
Into shark infested waters and still somehow survive, I
Was infatuated, still my aspirations caught for [?] feel like gravitation
Deep, deep, deep within corners of my imagination, uhmm
And then the skies got cloudy
Even take [?] place to make me start doubting
If you felt the same way I felt about you
Or if the things I heard about summertime [?] were true
Cause yes I said I liked it but you never replied
But you would still flirt with me, just gave me some type of sign
That you were interested but boy was I ever wrong
I never forced it out of you, truth is really unknown
I'm going and I'm going, I'm gone, I'm going to miss ya
I'm gonna take the time to get you out of my system
Like paparazzi stalkers with camera, I get the picture
You never been feeling me at all, you're into my sister
And then the skies start thundering
Booming and [?] and I start wondering
Where is the sun? Had it abandoned me?
God dammit this is an algebraic problem

    Ebrow, bro. Stop comparing or using Cannabis with and in the same sentence as Drugs, much hugs! Eat some Food, Hemp and let it be your medicine! Friend!

  2. C.... B....

    It's not jokes. Nothing to laugh at when y'all being disrespectful. It's a damn shame. Watch and learn from Sway. Oh yeah, and put the fucking phones away next time. Fucking douche bags.

  6. J.... M....

    gahdahm tf up rosenberg's ass

  7. p.... ....

    It is interesting watching this earlyish interview after seeing so many others with Raury. You can see that the Ebro in the morning crew is definitely less respectful of him, his work, and his vibe/message. They didn't even get too into his message. This is the most uncomfortable I've seen Raury looking. Sway's Universe has some excellent interviews with Raury where you can really see what this fella is about.

  8. D.... V....

    can y'all bring this man back

  9. b.... ....

    I love Raury, but hate the interview

  10. U.... S....

    Blood on the leaves cover 16:42

  11. G.... J....

    Skip to 17:00

  12. A.... D....

    when u a rapper/viewer who sounds/sees like the rest of the world you wont know what hits you. He is creative and actually has a love for music unlike the others who thought they had talent and just wanted to make a song sounding stupid I know good and truth music . They were mad disrespectful and thats cool he kept on rockin'. And thats all that matters along the way.

  13. s.... ....

    this is the most disrespectful interview smh

  14. M.... J....

    ebro always has like the worst interviews to me.......

  15. D.... W....

    sorry but raury should not of been interviewed by tools such as these guys as well as hot fm but sway will always have my respect he's a good dude by anyways I did not feel this interview.

  16. J.... H....

    these motherfuckers are the jokes of the interview world, they ask the most ignorant questions and one of them is always on their fucking phone like wtf

  17. J.... S....

    Raury is so real 😊 The interviewers were a bit off putting though

  18. v.... j....

    blood on the leaves hell yea!!!

  19. M.... M....

  20. J.... d....

  21. B.... G....

    imagine having to preform with all that negative energy in the room...he's young and willing to take risks..chill

  22. B.... G....

    why all the hate on this vunerable beautiful soul
    ...yall need to check yourselves yes..could hear the egos interviewing him.

  23. J.... P....

    What a terrible, disrespectful interview. Ebro doesn't even know the name of his guest's album.

  24. h.... w....

    his vibe is beautiful

  25. D.... B....

    why the fuck did they do him like that in the start of the interview, shady like a tree in the sun

  26. T.... M....

    fuck them

  27. u.... p....

    fuck ebro..stop antagonizing the kid..you bitch

  28. R.... W....

    raurys good but that cover was ASS

  29. S.... ....

    Can't even get the song title right

  30. M.... ....

    This interview made me realize how fucking rude hot 97 is.

    M.... ....

    they're always ass holes and trying to start beef between artists, its whack!

  31. J.... W....

    I will Come through this screen and punch all ya'll Niggas in ya fucking Temple for talking shit, Raury don't need any of ya Niggas and he's gonna do Great things; Fuck All Y'all!!

    J.... W....

    Praise Bee 😂😂😂💀💀

  32. S.... J....

    shandel rope look

  33. S.... J....

    you are exceptionally dope join the army so on so forth assistance

  34. J.... O....

    fs guys that's ebros style, watch other interviews he's a prick to everyone he ain't sway

  35. s.... ....

    aaaaaaaand they pulled out their phones

  36. T.... ....

    You can tell he's vibrating differently then the people interviewing him. He knows who he is, and doesn't seem to be bothered by the subliminal shade they're throwing.

  37. N.... B....

    I really don't get the praise and hype around this kid. His singing is mediocre at best, He doesn't know when each bars end while rapping. And for the people saying that he's only 18 is a bad validation, remember Nas? When did we start handing out passes for mediocre Mcs? Please explain to me why he's so hyped atm, I am honestly curious.

    N.... B....

    Na Bi he isn't fallowing the money and fame, he's following his music and people. all he represents in his music is creativity, peace, truth, and positivity. he talked about it on sway in the morning, how all this generation of artist are just looking to get signed and only rap about what a label can make money out of.. and here it comes.... the he's only 18 years old! actually 19 now.. for a person that young to have that maturity and believe in his music says a lot.

    N.... B....

    Na Bi continuing the first comment, not only is he that mature as a person but his music is very mature. you may not like his delivery but what he raps about and connects to different issues is quite incredible. Idk why you dislike him

    N.... B....

    I see, thank you both for your positive answers! I honestly can't find the appeal in him or his music. I don't think he is terrible, but he's not my cup of tea. There are so many mature artist that go unnoticed.

    N.... B....

    Na Bi its been a month since you typed this ignorant comment, so I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you looked more into his music and realized how in the wrong you are, bars coming from trap tears to forbidden knowledge, tell me how his music isn't knowledgeable, from songs from peace prevail, superfly, to mama tell me how his singing is mediocre, do your research before bashing a kid for how he did on an interview from when he was barely finding himself

    N.... B....

    @***** But I really don't get what's so conscious about his rap. And don't get me wrong, I don't listen to any of the rappers you listed. Also Andre run laps around this kid, no disrespect to your opinion I just don't see the comparison. Also I appreciate your reply my friend, good lookin.

  38. S.... M....

    she has her hand on him keep going man.

  39. M.... M....

    gosh this Interviewers so negative

  40. K.... R....

    what a great kid. He's going to get far in life!

  41. V.... ....

    "Are you a weirdo?" What the fuck kind of stupid unintelligent little kid question is that! The vibe and energy these DJ's emit is pretty uncomfortable.. egotrippers..

  42. C.... G....

    13:02 cigarette song
    17:00 blood on the leaves
    for depth of voice see devils whisper

  43. C.... G....

    13:02 cigarette song
    17:00 blood on the leaves
    for depth of voice see devils whisper

  44. s.... E....

    they were rude..

  45. M.... T....

    Remember he's only 18, he's still got a lot of time to grow

    M.... T....

    He's older now

    M.... T....

    also makes better music

  46. M.... M....

    Raury thumbs up, thumbs down for hot97

  47. A.... T....

    It makes me want to cry how nervous he is getting....

  48. B.... L....

    I could never get into this kid because his voice is just too thin and weak

    B.... L....

    @jared robinson I see what you are saying. But being open minded and being musical are two completely different things. Some people don't consider certain genres as music but they are musical in their own preference. Not trying to argue with you.

    B.... L....

    +Na Bi True. Only reason i really said that was because his name is 'lyrical beats' so like he obviously associates himself with music. I guess i just got triggered a bit. XD

    B.... L....

    @jared robinson Haha it happens I get triggered from time to time. I agree with you on being open minded to really take in music. How can someone say they truly love music if they only enjoy one genre or one side of it?

    B.... L....

    +Na Bi This is probably the first time a conversation in the Youtube comments has ended up in an agreement lol. XD Ye man music needs to be seen as a whole. I mean i even have classical songs that i like. obviously i wouldn't want to hear that shit at a club but i like to listen to it while studying or when i need to focus. Each genre fits a different scene basically.

    B.... L....

    @jared robinson It's the seasoning to our lives. Without it our lives would be dull and bland :) haha glad this convo turned out positive!

  49. L.... M....

    Proves how crap out society is the minute someone is truly themselves and is real about we gotta knock them because it's like oh shit how dare you be who you are that's considered weird fuck out of here man

  50. L.... M....

    What a fucking shit interview this kid is something special and they just bought him on n butchered him because he's comfortable with being himself

  51. A.... V....

    He's the hottest out right now. Whoa.

  52. M.... J....

    damn I know this cover is not 20 minutes lmao can someone tell me the start

  53. J.... P....

    I only liked the video because its Raury..but it was a horrible interview

  54. K.... V....

    Honestly, this kid is trash. Just another kid that makes it cus he's trendy. And he needs to leave that guitar alone till he gets it down cus that sucked. The pieces were there, but dude cannot play. And age don't mean shit.

    K.... V....

    +Kenny Vaughan fuck you. you aint doing shit with yourself let the kid do his shit hes still young af

    K.... V....

    My bad. I thought you had to already have a talent dialed down before you were famous for it....  Kid's verse was trash and he's trash on guitar. Get good at something, AND THEN take it on a radio show.

    K.... V....

    At least he is going somewhere in life

    K.... V....

    Kenny Vaughan can you please send me a video of you playing guitar? And having projects out ? Don't think so

  55. K.... J....

    they asking all the wrong questions

  56. I.... ....

    Hes really talented. He just needs more time to grow as an artist. The comparisons are definitely way too soon.

  57. T.... J....

    He's dope

  58. d.... B....

    This shit was horrible, thank god hes improved so much since

  59. t.... ....

    Wassup with that female shirt ? And female hat?

  60. M.... S....

    #raury playin my fave kanye song on yeezus #bloodlontheleaves

  61. M.... S....

    raury uh oh

  62. L.... W....

    Let that man make music he is 19 year old kid making music that has more depth than 30 year old in the game right now let him live lol

  63. G.... G....

    Kid Cudi and Raury collaboration is good energy for before, during, and once it spreads.

  64. c.... P....

    Terrible interview.. It's so disrespectful for the interviewer to not even know about the artist's music before asking him questions. Nonchalant and careless fuckery

  65. t.... j....

    His music is ok, but his verse on Joey Badass escape 120 is fire. Feels like he hasn't found his strengths yet.

  66. L.... C....

    Yo. Why is Rosenberg always trying to act like he don't know about the people who come on his show!!!?? Lol

  67. d.... p....

    fuck all of you haters , fuck you all , you are all stupid and FUCKING close minded , this boy writes about what's wrong and what's right in this world , he is a lyrical genius. why the fuck do you think kanye sat down with him to get to know him ? and c-lo ? and in the future I predict plenty more , this boy has the mind , trying skill and style of a genius , you all really need to FUCKING hear everything he has put down so far before you judge and critique because you all make yourself look stupid. this man is way above all of you.

  68. T.... M....

    Okay I feel I have to defend Raury a little here. Playing the guitar well is hard enough, playing the guitar while singing is pretty damn hard. And depending on the rhythm and melody, it can get pretty complicated when the rhythm of the lyrics goes beyond the melody as some writers/rappers/singers like to do sometimes.

    Basic players and singers do the smart thing. Use a capo, stick to simple open chords with the odd barre chord if you have to. And pick songs that are melodically in line with the lyrics for a solo live performance.

    If I'm asked to play the guitar without singing I can make some pretty good music with decent riffs. Ask me to sing while doing that and I'm all over the place. Your mind has to work in different ways. Combining feel, emotion intuition with structure. Only the greats can achieve that level of mastery. I'm talking Hendrix, John Legend and I'd even say John Mayer though he separates his more complex guitar playing from his singing and doesn't complicate his vocals or lyricism.

  69. P.... D....

    OBVIOUSLY he's not Andre 3000, but he has undertones of him. Why do people bash so much though? Dude taught himself to play guitar which Andre learned later in his career (NOT TO BEGIN WITH). What's wrong with being influenced by greats? Raury is young, and of course, his voice is still developing. Can't deny he's clever with this thoughtful raps and sung hooks. Come one, give credit where it's due. All love from Stone Mountain.

  70. M.... 1....

    Look up Devil's Whisper(Last 1min has bars) and Escape 120

  71. l.... i....

    i fucking love raury hes grown so much in confidence compared to then !

  72. C.... J....

    ebro is a dick

  73. N.... ....

    With the windows rolled down and the Kanye turned up, yeah we did it all now, look at how we turned up

  74. d.... ....

    Yo everyone saying how his music is whack and boring but it's about the positivity that he's spreading, which apparently none of you guys can do. At least he's not rapping about fucking bitches and shooting people up man

  75. Z.... D....

    whats happening?

  76. Z.... D....

    you know you fucked up when you ask if they know what song it is already and they have no idea....

  77. s.... M....

    His rapping is compared to Andre. To me he's a rapper than a singer

  78. B.... W....

    I can tell that raury didn't really enjoy this interview....and I didn't like them for that

  79. M.... T....

    I liked it \_(ツ)_/¯

  80. R.... T....

    Steez was a humble cat unlike this fraudulent little girl.

  81. T.... J....

    Off Topic, but I love this dude's shirt.

  82. A.... P....

    Why do many trash him?

  83. c.... ....

    Yeah I'm not really that impressed. There's some talent there.

  84. S.... ....

    Dope. Mad respect for Raury

  85. E.... M....

    just because you have an artistic demeanor and a introverted personality... that doesn't make you brilliant... watched the interview waiting to hear something amazing.... and I don't see the hype around this kid.... he seems nice though

    E.... M....

    Exactly...

    E.... M....

    nah the interviewers were not asking the right questions

  86. s.... b....

    Raury & Phony Ppl PLEASEE

  87. W.... ....

    He is interesting but the music isn't there yo indigo child is lit tho

  88. S.... H....

    I love Raury

  89. Y.... ....

    ROSENBERG IS A FUCKING HATER WATCH WHEN RAURY BLOW UP HE GONNA BE ON HIS DICK

  90. T.... O....

  91. s.... ....

    This dude sounds like he's constantly on the verge of tears. Not feeling it lol

  92. N.... F....

    Y'all do realize he barely had any sleep right? People aren't machines shit my man was prob tired & he had already been up all that time working & creating.

  93. o.... ....

    he was like naw i dont do drugs...i smoke weed tho. lol weeds not a drug to a lot of people including me.

  94. K.... ....

    I love his vibes! if you are into good vibes and fun music please check out my bros soundcloud
    https://soundcloud.com/toesrecords/sets/nothing-on-the-side-butterroll

  95. S.... L....

    I don't really know this dude and I'm not hip to his music either but to be honest it kinda makes me sick how these radio station dicks are low key throwing shade at this cat cause he's not like them.

  96. Y.... O....

    I love me some raury
