Nobody’s Listening (Green Lantern Remix) Lyrics

[Intro: Mike Shinoda & Green Lantern]
Yeah, Green Lantern, Mike Shinoda
Ay yo, Green, tell them the name of the mixtape is
Ha ha! Fort Minor: We Major
Let's go!

[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
Peep the style and the kids checking for it
The number one question is how could you ignore it
We drop right back in the cut
The Evil Genius track and Mike's raps
Got you backing this up like, rewind that
We're just rolling with the rhythm
Rise from the ashes of stylistic division
With these non-stop lyrics of life living
Not to be forgotten but still unforgiven
But in the meantime there are those
Who want to talk this and that so I suppose
That it gets to a point feelings got to get hurt
And get dirty with the people spreading the dirt, it's like

[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Jay-Z]
Try to give you warning, but everyone ignores me
I told you niggas now ten times, stop fuckin' with me
But nobody's listening
Call to you so clearly, but you don't want to hear me
I told you niggas now ten times, stop fuckin' with me
But nobody's listening
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
I got a heart full of pain, head full of stress
Handful of anger held in my chest
And everything left's a waste of time
I hate my rhymes but hate everyone else's more
I'm riding on the back of this pressure
Guessing that its better I can't keep myself together
Because all of this stress gave me something to ride on
The pain gave me something I could set my sights on
You never forget the blood, sweat, and tears
The uphill struggle over years, the fear and
Trash talking and the people it was to
What up to the Militia and the LPU

[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Jay-Z]
Try to give you warning, but everyone ignores me
I told you niggas now ten times, stop fuckin' with me
But nobody's listening
Call to you so clearly, but you don't want to hear me
I told you niggas now ten times, stop fuckin' with me
But nobody's listening

[Bridge: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
We got a heart full of pain, head full of stress
Nobody's listening
Handful of anger held in my chest
Nobody's listening
Uphill struggle, blood, sweat and tears
Nobody's listening
Y'all watch your back, Machine Shop is here
[Outro: Green Lantern, Kanye West, Mike Shinoda]
Fort Minor, We Major
We major? C'mon, homie, we major
We major? C'mon, homie, we major
We major! C'mon, homie, we major
We major! C'mon

Let's go!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

“Nobody’s Listening” was remixed by DJ Green Lantern for We Major by Fort Minor and is the fifteenth song on the mixtape which was released in October 2005 to promote The Rising Tied.

Mike’s verses were re-recorded for the remix. At the end of the second verse, Mike replaces the last two lines with, “What up to the Militia and the LPU.”

The remix is over a beat that is structured around and heavily samples “No One Knows” by Queens Of The Stone Age. At times throughout the song, “Threat” by Jay-Z, “Shook Ones (Part II)” by Mobb Deep, and “We Major” by Kanye West featuring Nas and Really Doe are also sampled.

On December 5, 2005, DJ Green Lantern released the We Major EP “street” release on vinyl which contains full versions of “Spraypaint & Inkpens”, “Nobody’s Listening (Green Remix)”, “S.C.O.M.”, and “There They Go (Green Remix)” in explicit and clean versions. No overdubs or transitions are present on the EP.
