Dance Now Lyrics – JID ft. Kenny Mason

[Intro: JID]
Bum-bum-bum, ba-dum-bum, Bum-bum-bum
Bum-bum-bum, ba-dum-bum, Bum-bum-bum
Bum-bum-bum, ba-dum-bum, Bum-bum-bum
Aye, aye, aye, a-bum-bum-bum, aye
Look, look

[Verse 1: JID]
J-I-D back in the city with it
Jiddy done been all across the globe
They say JID a scribbler, he silly with it
When he spitting, I hope he don’t sell his soul
He should be good, man, he signed to Cole
He from the hood, n!gga, down the road
He went to juuging right by the stove
Then they saw the patrol, it was time to roll
Saw the patrol, it was time to ride
Motor running on Memorial Drive
Got a country cousin cruisin’ with a blind man
Savannah at the Florida-Georgia line
Got a couple family members in Atlanta
Not Atlanta, we let Omeretta decide
They just gone let that Beretta fly
'Cause you n!ggas bugging, spray pesticides
It's me and the bros, it's no extra guys
And they moving weight, it's no exercise
We could pick a date to come stretch you out
Only showin’ muscle when it’s flexing time
You could see the hustle, you could recognize
Overcame struggle when the Devil tried
Lemme bear it all when I’m telling God
You know I'm Morant when I talk to Ja

[Pre-Chorus: JID]
N!gga said that I can't, damn lie
Ain’t dapping no hand, sanitize
We gone slide on your man, landslide
There's a nine in my pants, hand cocked
You gone try to recant, you can't now
I could step on the ant, ant pile
I'ma shoot at the ground, dance now
Dan—, oh, dan—, pshh, dan—

[Chorus: Kenny Mason]
Oh, what a handsome gift (Yeah)
To live in the land of sick (Uh)
Ran up with bags and bricks (Uh)
And my lil' nasty chick
(Yeah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
That's when I asked for help (Uh)
Tell me he grant my wish (Yeah)
You dance with the devil (Oh, oh)
You never dance again (Oh, oh)

[Post-Chorus: JID & Kenny Mason]
Dance now, dan—, dan—, pshh, dan—
Dance now, dan—, dan—, pshh, dan—
Dance now, dan—, dan—, pshh, dan—
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Dance now, dan—, dan—, pshh, dan—
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Verse 2: JID]
I'm not a two-stepping man
I said, "I do not dance"
It's a gun inside my pants
And the whole world's in his hands (Dance)
It depends, penny for your sins (For your sins)
Shooting up the block, can't stop revenge (Oh)
And every dreadlock's like a rasta man (Rasta man)
Where the story ends and plot begins
Uh, momma said, "The messiah's in moccasins"
Tryna save the kids in them apartments
And show a way to live with other options
Opulence, decadence, black excellence and lots of it
I could cop the newest Beamer, Bentley or Balenciagas
I could pay for this lil' n!gga's scholarship
I ain't caught up in rap n!gga politics
Play with me and you playing yourself
Playing with death, saying my prayer
Cathy and Carl gotta K-O the ship
I'm in DeKalb county where we carrying catering chef
Cooking up another plate of the best
Me and Christo got it popping like it's Crisco
Fried chicken, I'm l!cking her thighs
Then I put my face in her breasts
I took my drive, my plug on the West side
Of Atlanta, he known to finesse guys
With the hammer, on camera, ten headshots
On the camera, knock out a dreadlock
That's a felony charge, he caught of F
N!ggas come to the A and get X'd out (X)
But I only been here 'cause I'm tryna help
Only one you can help is yourself now

[Pre-Chorus: JID]
N!gga said that I can't, damn lie
Ain't dapping no hand, sanitize
We gone slide on your man, landslide
There's a nine in my pants, hand cocked
You gone try to recant, you can't now
I could step on the ant, ant pile
I'ma shoot at the ground, dance now
Dan—, oh, dan—, pshh, dan—

[Chorus: Kenny Mason]
Oh, what a handsome gift
To live in the land of sick (Uh)
Ran up with bags and bricks
And my lil' nasty chick
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
That's when I asked for help
Tell me he grant my wish
You dance with the devil (Oh, oh)
You never dance again (Oh, oh)

[Post-Chorus: JID & Kenny Mason]
Dance now, dan—, dan—, pshh, dan—
Dance now, dan—, dan—, pshh, dan—
Dance now, dan—, dan—, pshh, dan—
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Dance now, dan—, dan—, pshh, dan—
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Outro: Kenny Mason & Jesse Royal]
Life is a journey, you know? Not a destination
Lean not towards the egoistic intonations
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Positive vibrations bring real liberation
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
It's the will of the heart, the strength of the mind
And the love of the creator, that will help us
Rise out of these sadistic situations
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
And experience the purity that exists in our creation
You know? (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
