Obstacles from Obstacles by Flo Alimasi

(intro)

Hey sniffed up soldier,
Quit Crying. Why you crying For?
Come on, stop crying man.
(ah, ahh)

(Hook 1):

Hush Little Baby Dont you Cry, mama's gonna be alright
I don't know what to sing but I know that she told ya, Dad is gonna hold you through the night
And I know that you maaaad
I know that you mad eh!
I know that you maaaaa...aaaaad..

(Flo Verse 1):

Open the Pages of the pad I'm adding ink in the book
Fuck them hating ass rappers, aint goin link wit a crook
I'm telling stories, I'm pouring porridge down on your doors
You'll get to stepping and sing the chorus feeling the pain
Have you ever been in a hospital feeling the drain?
Lack of oxygen while needles are pumping your vains?
Vomoting becomes another way of breathing, you feeling dizzy
True story of my life, didn't get it easy
I was about 5, Didn't believe I'm still alive
Then I started gaining faith
On my knees for who's above
Fucked around and got lost for a couple times
I was walking and talking, I was busting rimes
Until that day came, the hero I became got me feeling like I'm Stan Lee
I'm that clean with that Mockingbird song
If I get to hunting Know that mockingbird's gone

(Hook 2):
Hush Little Baby Dont you Cry, mama's gonna be alright
I don't know what to sing but I know that she told ya, Dad is gonna hold you through the night
And I know that you mad, cause in this life you gonna be sad when you missing what you really need, huh huh huh
Mama's gonna be alright, Aunty gonna be alright, Daddy gonna be alright...

(Flo Verse 2):

Eh yo, I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad too
You'll never forget the moment, its stuck on you like tattoo
Where the bathrooms? so I can go and puke and shit
Cause every time my memories cross over I puke and shit
The stress is taking over, bringing outside the worst of me
someone calm me, like I'm on the Sofa with Anthony
Baby-sitting while I'm writing, I'm testing the best of me
Call me Hancock
I'm flying, just missing the cape on me
I been trying to do this, since the day that I was born
But these Obstacles always gotta come faster than storm
It's that one shot! Pah!... One opportunity
I gotta get the aim right dawg, won't let it slip like a sniper!...
won't let it slip like a sniper
(ohhhhh yeahhh)

(I been trying to do this, since the day that I was born) X3

(Man I been trying to do this, since the day that I was born, I been Trynna do this since the day that I was born
But these Obstacles always gotta come faster than storm) x2

(Hook 3):

Hush Little Baby Dont you Cry, mama's gonna be alright
I don't know what to sing but I know that she told ya, Dad is gonna hold you through the night
And I know that you maaaad
I know that you mad eh!
I know that you maaaaa...aaaaad..
