Lonely at the Top (Bonus)

Lyrics for Lonely at the Top (Bonus)

Bah-bah-bah, buh-bah-bum-bah Buh-buh-buh, bum-bah Bah-di-ah-di-ah Bah-bah-bah, buh-bah-bum-bah Buh-buh-buh, bum-bah Bah-di-ah-di-ah Yeah, listen, I want to help my favorites To find that spark again Somewhere deep in their hearts again Man, chasin' them is how I made it I felt this for a while, but couldn't frame it In the proper rhythms, it seems like they stopped just givin' a fuck and I fuckin' hate it 'Cause where you supposed to look on days when you feel unmotivated? When all your heroes either disappeared or sound so deflated The younger generation, hell if I know, I won't debate it But they want what I got right now, and one day they gon' obtain it Still, I find it hard to replicate what I'm longin' lately That childish admiration like back when I had posters hangin' I do my best with this verse, but shit, maybe there's no explainin' Just ventin', it's no complainin', but listen to me For years, I felt like an only child with no one to play with The older kids I watched run up the slides the wrong way or hang upside down from monkey bars While I was looking from afar, just hopin' for that future day When I'd be able to do the same shit and now that day's hit Mama done let me come outside, but now them slides are vacant The big boys done skated They pockets got too grown, for some, it seems that love is gone And now they pass the time with expensive glasses of wine at locations with the finest accommodations And I ain't hatin', just more so thinkin' 'bout complacence and the realization That one day that's what my fate is Their greatest hits fill up my playlist, not so much their latest And I fuckin' hate it For selfish reasons, I think I could help them reignite the flame and fall in love with this again If they could trust in young Jermaine, we'd do our drills, we'd shake the rust We'd blow the dust off of the pain and go shake up the game And maybe then, I'd have someone I want to be again But even as I write that thought, I don't believe it, dang 'Cause maybe it wasn't even them, it's really me that changed Maybe it wasn't even them, it's really me that changed Hmm, shit I never understood the phrase "it's lonely at the top" Until I scaled that mountain all the way up till it stopped And if you're ever blessed enough to make it to this spot You'll see the ones you looked up to, unfortunately, had to drop I never understood the phrase "it's lonely at the top" Until I scaled that mountain all the way up till it stopped And if you're ever blessed enough to make it to this spot You'll see the ones you looked up to, unfortunately, had to drop
