Overwhelming (feat. Jay Da 3rd) - Tech N9ne

This is so, so crazy.

This long journey.

Look at all the love you gave me

You gave me the strength.

To keep on moving forward

Pushing me past the stars.

Now the light I’m running toward.

At the bottom of the barrel, I was like the rotten apple

And I never graduated, no gown, no cap and a tassel

But I stowed my education, now I got my teachers baffled

Wonder why I feel the terror of number one independent

God picked my name in the raffle

I was dealt a bad hand, wasn’t gonna amount to nothing

Thank god that I had fans, keyboards, mics an percussion

Cuz with that yo I elevated, now I’m just celebrated

Whenever tecca nina hit the public

Taking so many pictures, signing the autographs

Leaving messages on your voice mails and I love it

And with all this new success I can’t believe this love level

Specially when they thought that I was devil

A painted up psycho brotha who loves metal

The response is overwhelming, for the love, can’t thank you enough

Dedicated to all the people who got me out of hell

Ya’ll saved my life and stuff

I opened up my heart, showed you what I had inside

An ocean full of truth, too deep for the lies

Ya made it to the pain, had to swim through the pride

There’s nothing else I need to survive

Overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, your love is so, so, so!)

So overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, ay, it kept me alive yeah!)

Overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, your love is so, its so, so!)

So overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, it kept me alive yeah, yeah, come on!)

Back in the days I went through visions, in my head, dreams that you’d listen

But my wonderful fans they came, and made it all come to fruition

Sometimes with the females I’ll straight show my gratitude through kissin'

On the cheek, for the youngsters, foreheads, for the legal pound for the

fella’s and screw vixens

Way back when I was bitter, what’s unused my music is litter, so mad at em,

that I got jitters

Didn’t consider that in a second I would be bigger, the label found that I was

a hard hitter

I’d give’r shit was delivered hella hard from a spitter, gritter

Recognizing all the humongous love I’d get on facebook and positive messages on

twitter

This is how I tell you thank you, to all of my fans I thank you

And you can tell all those suckaz that hate on the Nina they just upset that

they ain’t you

Cuz they favorite artist is lame, and neglects his fans, he does do

But your favorite artist goes out of his way to show you that he loves you

I opened up my heart, showed you what I had inside

An ocean full of truth, too deep for the lies

Ya made it to the pain, had to swim through the pride

There’s nothing else I need to survive

Overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, your love is so, so, so!)

So overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, ay, it kept me alive yeah!)

Overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, your love is so, its so, so!)

So overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, it kept me alive yeah, yeah, come on!)

So here’s to all of my fans, your making my dreams come true

You helped me create this land, by believing in things one knew

And that one is N9ne, you brung his time to everyone and rhymed

All though some is blind you brung his lines to the sun and shined

Technician hunts, keeping my every condition pumped

Giving you what your suspicion wants, waking up these hissing punks

To the early strange fans, thank you for feeling my pain man

But for the newbies I’m so so glad that you made it, welcome to strangeland

The tattoos, the tears, the gratitude, the years

My life you get through sound, thank you cuz Tech you found

Just know that I’m thankful and I will never ever let you down

I opened up my heart, showed you what I had inside

An ocean full of truth, too deep for the lies

Ya made it to the pain, had to swim through the pride

There’s nothing else I need to survive

Overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, your love is so, so, so!)

So overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, ay, it kept me alive yeah!)

Overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, your love is so, its so, so!)

So overwhelming!

(So, so, so)

(Yeah, it kept me alive yeah, yeah, come on!)

Wow, thank you to all who love me

I mean it more than you know

I love you for feeling my music

And coming to every show

And I will forever be there

Through rain, sleet or snow

You’re right there with the stars

Cuz I’m cutty now there’s only one other place we can go
