Drip Drop- Lyrics

Drip Drop- Song title

Chapter One

What The DJ Spins blasted loud through the speakers of the private yacht which was filled with people, mainly women in bikinis most were serving food and drinks. Two lounge chairs were setup on the side and were being occupied by two young men who were being fed shrimp by some girls.

The first was Hakeem Lyon an up and coming rapper trying to step out of his fathers shadow. He was dressed in a white tank top, blue ripped jeans and black and white sneakers. He also wore two gold chains along with a gold watch.

The second chair was occupied by Naruto Lyon twin brother of Hakeem Lyon. At first glance you wouldn't even guess that the two were even related let alone twins. While Hakeem hade black hair which was styled in a high top fade. Naruto had spiky blond hair with red tips, which he dyed. He was dressed similar to his brother in a white tank top, black ripped jeans and black and red sneakers. He also wore a gold chain and watch.

Naruto like his twin was in the music industry. He served as Hakeem's DJ and producer. He also occasionally DJ'ed for other artists on Empire.

Naruto finished chewing his shrimp and looked over to his brother. "Yo Keem go get Mal and tell him to get his ass up here and enjoy the party. He's gonna work himself to death, I mean even I took the day off."

Hakeem nodded as he put on his hat and left to go get Jamal. He found Jamal in the grand hall and the two perfomed Live In the Moment. As the two finished their song Naruto made his way down the stairs clapping his hands. "Yo Mal, I gotta give it to you bro, I'm speechless."

Jamal Lyon, the middle child of the Lyon family. He was dressed in a grey T-shirt, black jeans and white sneakers, very simple compared to his two younger brothers. Jamal was considered the outcast of the family as he was gay. Even though their father was the only one who seemed to disapprove.

"Thanks Ruto, but ypu know I'm nowhere near as good as you." Jamal had gotten up from piano and fist bumped Naruto.

Naruto shrugged his shoulders. "Yeah I don't like to brag buuuuuttt."

Hakeem punched his arm. "Alright my brothers why the hell are we down here when there are some bad bitches on the top deck, and Mal if you hook up with the bar tender we won't tell Michael."

Jamal punched his brother in the arm but followed his two younger brothers upstairs to the party.

Next Day

Naruto was sitting at his father's dinner table along with Hakeem and Jamal. Jamal was listening to music and Hakeem was playing games on his phone. Naruto seemed to be the only one doing something productive as he was on his laptop composing a new song for that bum ass rapper named Kid FoFo. That's right, Naruto not only produced Hakeem's music, but also every artist that was signed to Empire Entertainment.

Naruto was adding percussion to the track when his older brother Andre Lyon walked in. Andre was the only one of the four brothers who had no musical talent. He made his way by going to school and graduating college. Naruto had tried many times to connect with Andre but never could, he guessed Andre couldn't handle having three musical geniuses for younger brothers while he was stuck behind a desk.

Andre sat down next to Hakeem, who was sitting next to Naruto with Jamal on the opposite side of the table.

Andre and Jamal talked about Andre bailing out on dinner, which Naruto and Hakeem wouldn't complain about considering they came over and ate all of the food that Jamal's boyfriend Michael had prepared.

Their conversation was interrupted when their father Lucious Lyon walked in. Lucious was a powerful man with a dark past. He had built his Empire from the dirt to the top and would do anything to keep it there.

Naruto had taken his headphones off and closed his laptop, as well as knocking Hakeem's feet off the table so Lucious wouldn't say anything.

Lucious surveyed his four sons before speaking. "Me and Andre have been working hard to make Empire a publicly traded company, and part of that means securing a legacy for when I'm gone. And right now it looks like none of you are prepared to take over the company."

"Now it won't happen today or tomorrow, but I will start grooming one of you soon. And it can only be one of you."

Naruto shook his head as he saw the looks on his brothers faces. "Well count me out pops. I don't need all of that. I got my mixing table, headphones and bros. I'm good."

Naruto grabbed his things as he prepared to leave. "Come on Hakeem we gotta get to the studio, your album ain't gonna make itself."

Hakeem tried to protest but Naruto dragged him from table, from the room and out of the house. If Naruto looked back he would have seen the menacing glare Lucious was sending his way.

As soon as Naruto and Hakeem made it outside Hakeem wrenched his arm away from Naruto. "Yo what the fuck are you doing? Pops was talking about who gonna run Empire."

Naruto looked at Hakeem. "He wasn't talking about the heir to Empire. He was trying to see which one of us was going to be his lapdog. And I for one am nobodies lapdog. Are you his lapdog Keem?"

Hakeem shook his head. "Hell no."

Naruto nodded as both him and Hakeem got in Naruto orange Lamborghini and drove off.

Two Days Later

Naruto was sitting in the studio working on some music for himself. He had spent the last couple of days working on Hakeem's album he didn't have a chance to work on his own music. Naruto was focused on the soundboard he didn't notice someone walk in.

"I see that your doing well." Naruto turned around to find the source of the voice to see Cookie Lyon, his mother, standing in front of the door.

"Yeah well this is my favorite place in the world to be. I can make so many different sounds in here it's like magic."

Cookie took a seat in the chair next to Naruto. "You don't seem surprised that I'm here."

Naruto smirked. "Well Hakeem did send me a text warning me about you."

Cookie tried to plead her case. "It wasn't my fault. That boy is a piece of work."

Naruto's smirk turned into a smile. "I agree with you on that."

An awkward silence dawned over the both of them. Cookie cleared her throat. "What are you working on? Another song for your idiot brother."

Naruto shook his head. "Nah this song is all mine. It's almost done, I just been playing around with the lyrics."

Cookie straightened up in her chair. "Well then , show me what you got so far."

Narauto nodded his head as he pressed play. A drum set was heard before Naruto cleared his throat.

Money and the power
Once you get a 'lil they just want to take you down
I got the money and the power
Once you get a 'lil they just want to take you down
We've been going hard for too long
Can't get enough, what is you on?
Really ain't nothing, I could drop that
Wake up in the morning, make it all back

It's nothing, nothing to get it poppin'
Wanna roll. Roll up, up, and away
Here we go now
Now Martin had a dream, I've been dreamin' 'bout gold
Tell 'em I just wanna shine, and I gotta let it show
Show up on the scene, walk right through the door
Got a nigga on repeat, it's my double up flow
Vibrate the whole building, I ain't ringing through your phone
Waiting 'til the smoke clear, can you see me through the fog?
Fall back, it could go all bad
We be goin' hard with your ex, oh Tic-tac
Tacky motherfuckers must not be hip yet
Life is a bitch, but I bet I get that bitch wet

Naruto cut the music off. "That's all I got. I've been working on a second verse, but I'm not to sure about the first."

Cookie was speechless. "That was one of the best verses I've ever heard." Cookie grabbed his head and kissed his forehead.

Another awkward silence fell over the two. Once again Cookie broke it. "Jamal told me why you stopped visiting."

Naruto hung his head. He always dreamed about the day his mother got out of jail, but they always ended in her being disappointed in his recent decisions.

"How could you go to jail for breaking and entering. Why were you even breaking and entering. You have everything anybody could ever ask for. What the hell could you have possibly got out of that house that you didn't already have."

Naruto mumbled something that Cookie couldn't hear. "Speak up boy!"

"Grandma's necklace!" Naruto had gotten out of his chair and was clearly angry. He was tired of people asking about why he snuck into some random persons house in the middle of the night. Naruto had never told anyone the truth, not even Hakeem knew why he had went into that house and he had spent thirteen months behind bars for it.

Naruto took a deep breath before explaining to his mother. "Me and Hakeem had went out partying and at some point I had bet grandma's necklace on a drinking contest between Keem and this girl. Hakeem lost and the guy got the necklace. I spent the next couple of days tracking him down before heading into that house to get it back."

Cookie looked at her son who was on the verge of tears. "When I got out I didn't visit you because I was ashamed."

Cookie wrapped Naruto in a hug. "Oh sweetie I would never be ashamed of you."

Naruto smiled as he wiped his tears. "Thanks Ma."

Cookie smiled too. "Good now let's work on that song of yours."

Naruto and Cookie spent the rest of the night in the studio working on his song.

Next Day

Naruto had heard bad music before and he had even made a few bad songs but what he was watching right now was terrible. Lucious had given Hakeem a song he had written and it wasn't bad, it just wasn't Hakeem's style. And on top of that Hakeem was hungover. So that made it even worse.

"Yo I ain't feeling that run it back."

Naruto shook his head. "Alright take thirty seven."

Hakeem looked at Naruto with anger in his eyes. "Yo it don't matter, I said run it back!"

Naruto looked back at Lucious who nodded his head. Naruto started the track again only for Hakeem to forget the lines. Lucious called Hakeem a disappointment and a waste of time before leaving the room.

Naruto looked at his twin before chasing after his father. Naruto caught him by the elevators. "Yo dad you know that's not Hakeem's fault right."

Lucious looked at his son. "How that not his fault! He knew he was gonna be in the studio today, yet he stayed out all night drinking."

"Yeah well only half of it is Keem's fault. I mean that song his old school and not his style. Give me a day and that song is gonna be golden."

Lucious nodded his head. "Alright Naruto I'm giving you one day to fix that, and if it's not then your ass is mine."

Lucious then got in the elevator but Naruto stopped the door from closing. "I need to tell you something dad."

Lucious looked at Naruto clearly aggravated. "What is it Naruto?"

Naruto took a deep breath before looking his father right in the face. "I'm ready to release an album."

That seemed to get Lucious's attention. "Are you sure I mean you've never done this kind of thing before."

Naruto nodded his head. "Yeah I'm sure. I've already got a few songs lined up, and more in the making."

Lucious could see the determination in his son's eyes and nodded his head. "Alright Naruto if your sure I'll set up a meeting with you and Anika and we'll take things from there." Naruto nodded in agreement as he let the elevator door go so it could close.

Two Hours Later

Naruto and Hakeem made their way into the coffee shop were Jamal frequently performed. They went over to Jamal who was idly sitting at his keyboard.

Hakeem spoke first. "To Mal we need your help."

Jamal looked at his two younger brothers. "What is it?" Naruto pulled out his phone and played the song they were recording earlier in the day.

After listening for a while Jamal looked at Hakeem. "Yo your rap is dope, pops is just tripping with this wack ass beat. Here try this."

Jamal began playing a tune on his keyboard while Hakeem did the chorus for Right There. When they were done Naruto began clapping his hands. Jamal smiled. "Have Naruto work his magic and dad can't complain."

Naruto and Hakeem thanked Jamal before exiting the coffee shop and heading back to the studio.

Next Day

Hakeem had just finished playing the complete version of Right There for their father and Naruto had bolted fron the room having to go to the bathroom. He was moving so fast he didn't have time to stop when he saw someone step out of one of the studios. Naruto braced himself as he collided with the person.

Naruto got up as he looked down to see who he collided with. It was a girl who appeared to be the same age as him dressed in black jeans and a white blouse. Naruto quickly helped her to her feet. "Oh shit I'm so sorry I was not paying attention."

The girl rubbed her forehead where Naruto's collided with hers. "It's cool I should have been paying atattenti..." The words died in her mouth when she saw who she was talking to.

"Oh shit your Naruto Lyon!" Naruto smiled

"The one and only."

The girl stared at Naruto as he rubbed the back of his head. "I'm such a big fan of yours, it's amazing to meet you in person."

Naruto smirked. "Well it was a pleasure to meet you too..."

"Tiana."

"Tiana. Well if you'll excuse me I have to sprint down the hallway again." And with that Naruto disappeared.

Next Day

Naruto found himself at another party on the companies yacht. He was drinking a glass of champagne while sitting on the steps as his father made a speech about Cookie returning and how his three sons would all be releasing albums this year. Naruto looked over to Jamal surprised that he was actually gonna be making an album. Jamal and Hakeem both looked at him for the same reason.

The three brothers made their way over to each other. Hakeem put his arm over Naruto's shoulder. "Yo Ruto I can't believe you finally gonna make an album."

Naruto smirked as he took the champagne bottle out of Hakeem's hand and filled up his glass. "Well I decided it's time to stop hiding my talents. I assume you were thinking the same thing Jamal?"

Jamal nodded his head. "Yeah, well why don't you show us a little something."

Naruto smirked as he ran over to Lucious and whispered something in his ear. Lucious smiled before announcing to the party that Naruto would be performing a song.

The boat was silent before Naruto reappeared in the middle of the room.

(2x)
I just, I just don't, I just, I just, I just don't know
I - I - I just, I just don't, I just, I just don't know what to do

I'm back nigga, what's up?
Hop, how'd you get your buzz up?
I heard you signed over your soul to the devil
Was it true? Nigga shut the fuck up!
In my heart there ain't much love
So if you get bashed then that's tough luck
FV doin' shit so big haters, I'm on your side now nigga, fuck us!
It's Knock Madness! Yeah, I'm back up in this
I'm a real nice nigga but I rap with vengeance
Only got bad intentions and I'm looking for a new mouth
That my nutsack could fit in
I look like an idiot to grab attention
But my new fans tellin' me to trash my lenses
It's bad for business, I'm lacking senses
It feels like I'm trapped in a black dimension
Stepped in this bitch to wreck
So don't disrespect, I promise that it'd be a big regret
I'll twist ya' neck, I'm lookin' for a fish to catch
I chop niggas up, yeah I learned it from Tech
I got hoes all over that wanna give me (dome)
They all yellin' Hopsin you turn me (on)
But I feel like it's the devil tryna' get me (whoa)
And I don't wanna do it nigga, send me (home!)
Nigga, I'm so cool, but I feel so low
See I got a crew, but I feel solo
I cruise, but the wheels don't roll
You feel what I'm sayin'? Shit neither do I
I'ma give you niggas one more album and after that
It's peace out and I'm leaving you guys, you know why?

The world made feel like I lost myself
My own homies tellin' me that I need help
If you got a solution for me you should probably
Holla at cha boy if you know somebody
Let me know (4x)
Holla at cha boy if you know somebody
Let me know (4x)
Holla at cha boy if you know somebody

No no no no no no no no no NO!
Hopsin is doomed, locked in a room
Spaced out like a little pop in the shrooms
God lit a fuse, now I gotta make a decision
And I don't really know which option to choose
Im a big wreck, did you not get the news?
I made a million bucks but did not get abused
How did I manage to get robbed from the truth
Maybe I shoulda never went and dropped outta school
It's not that bad, you're okay kid, cheer up
But I got a life that I ain't too sure of
So I gotta dress like Ace Ventura
Can't look at myself I might break this mirror
(Shit! Fuck! Fuck!) I'm paranoid
I panic over every little scary noise
See, when I go pick up the phone and tell friends about it
But they won't answer cause they're annoyed
I'm like uggghh, I put a porno on cause my life ain't awesome, man
Jack off, go to sleep, wake up, jack off again
Then repeat the cycle
Can't go to sleep unless I leave the lights on
You don't know how many fuckin' demons I know
Maybe I should go try to read the bible (Fuck! Oh no!)
I don't even like rap, the only thing I wanted was just to be cool
And hang out with a group of fans & solve mysteries like I'm Scooby Doo
But I got way more than I bargained for
You can't chill when your heart is sore
I'm so mad I could start a war, so fuck Hopsin
Man I don't even know who I are no more!

I feel like I lost myself
My own homies tellin' me that I need help
If you got a solution for me you should probably
Holla at cha boy if you know somebody
Let me know (4x)
Holla at cha boy if you know somebody
Let me know (4x)
Holla at cha boy if you know somebody

Man, ya'll niggas tryna' kill my vibe
Lately, don't nobody feel my rhymes
Dizzy blowin' up tryna' steal my shine
I'm all outta ammo, my skills just died
But like, "Oh my God, I love Ill Mind 5!"
The one where the dumb skippity bums get high
That there changed my whole entire life
You make more things like that? I'll buy!
Well I got news for you
My screws are loose (I'll tell ya)
This rap thing here's what I use to do
Now I'm movin' to (Australia)
When I go ghost Imma get a house
On the Gold Coast yelling YOLO
On a couch, feelin' so dope, livin' low pro
So these foul niggas don't know
I'll be strutting around like (hell yeah!)
Man, I'm losin' my mind
Ya'll assume that I'm cool when I rhyme
See I'm tryin' to be Marcus and Hopsin
But I get depressed when the two intertwine
Truthfully, I'm not the man that I used to be
Nobody cares, so I use the beat
To talk to, so I lose the heat
I'm cut bad and the bruise is deep
Is there anything you can do for me?

The world made me feel like I lost myself
My own homies tellin' me that I need help
If you got a solution for me you should probably
Holla at cha boy if you know somebody
Let me know (4x)
Holla at cha boy if you know somebody
Let me know (4x)
Holla at cha boy if you know somebody

The party cheered as Naruto dropped the Mic while breathing heavily. He looked to see the smiling faces of his family in the crowd. This was gonna be a great year.
