Monotone lyrics

[Intro/Interlude]
Could it be it's just that simple now? (x2)

[Verse 1]
Yeah, we want that monotone, monotone
And that's why we all paid this hard-earned money to get packed up in this Thunderdome
I'm like "What is wrong? For Pneumonia?" cause, man, I spent my whole check
To hear you talk about yo' life and how you got my check round yo' neck
We want that monotone, monotone, yeah, yo' album live and all
To be honest, I ain't think that you were performing live at all
And God forbid you do it right or how it ought to be sung, nah, nah, nah
(I'mma need you to do that sh*t at the top of yo' lungs)
But I guess, if yo' sh*t was gonna be monotone, I coulda just
Saved my check and listen to yo' songs at home cause let's be honest
I could throw my iPod on and the place'll go stupid
And I'm lookin' at you, kid, like "I wouldn't let you on for nothing with that bullsh*t you just did"

[Bridge]
But you just laugh, throw money, watch the b*tches scatter
Cause it worked before so why not follow the initial pattern?
So, while you on vacation, I'll be at home, alone
In my mirror with a brush and a comb
Singing that ol' independent song like
Man, man, man, I wish I was you
Or at least on yo' level, man, I'd diss the sh*t outta you
I don't know if you work tonight, sh*t, that ain't my business
But I swear I'm gon' make it, I got God as my witness
[Hook] (x2)
I'm gon' see you on my way up and see you on yo' way down
Cause right now, I'm just another n*gga in a hype crowd
And you don't even know that I been plannin' yo' demise
So I'll advise you keep yo' eyes on the prize cause I'm on the rise

[Interlude/Intro]

[Verse 2]
Yeah, we want that monotone, monotone
Oh, you better than the peons? And at the end of the night
You gon' find a b*tch with a switch you can pee on
Oh, you one of them n*ggas, huh? You laugh cause it's funny
And I'm one of them n*ggas like (They should've never gave you n*ggas money)
But I done it, made it to the front row and you don't wanna look at a n*gga
I'm making eye contact like a n*gga got on five contacts, I want my $99.95 back
You hide in the back cause you tired, out of breath and sh*t
You better be glad I paid money, I woulda been left this sh*t
Motherf*cker, you got fans and we got out motherf*cking hands up for everything that you sayin'
And we wanna be appreciated, I borrowed 20 bucks, I'mma eat the aided
So you can at least say "Hey, sh*t", I'm tryna be like you for my three lil' babies
Jerome and Tanik' and Casey but you looking at me like I need to face it

[Bridge]
f*ck my situation cause you just laugh
Throw money, watch the b*tches scatter
Cause it worked before so why not follow the initial pattern?
So, while you on vacation, I'll be at home, alone
In my mirror with a brush and a comb
Singing that ol' independent song for what?
Man, man, man, I wish I was you
Or at least on yo' level, man, I'd diss the sh*t outta you
I don't know if you work tonight, sh*t, that ain't my business
But I swear I'm gon' make it, I got God as my witness
[Hook]
