Pigeon John
John Kenneth Dust (born John Kenneth Dunkin: November 30, 1972), better known by the stage name Pigeon John, is an American rapper based in Los Angeles, California. He is a former member of L.A. Symphony.
Early life
Pigeon John claims that his stage name was provided by Jesus who was driving around Inglewood: "He hopped out and handed me a dead pigeon. He whispered, 'Please have a good time, you're really bumming me out.' I watched him sink back into the cushioned seats and drive, quickly away. And that's when it happened, the pigeon started shaking violently and became awake, picked up and flew away. I don't think I had a choice... it was 'pigeon' or die." He later explained that he was discussing his need for a stage name with a friend when the friend suggested "Chicken John", taken from the character Chicken George in Roots. The friend's mother then interjected that John didn't look like a chicken, claiming that he looked like a pigeon and should therefore be called "Pigeon John".

Weight of the World
by: Pigeon John[Chorus:]
"Sometimes I feel the weight of the world
And its so heavy and its bringing me down"
[Verse 1:]
Wake up to another day
Gotta get to work gotta get the big pay
I got car notes and rent and the other nonsense
That's slowly turning me into a slave
But its ok because I look good
I got the best clothes and the best neighborhood
And that's what it's about the American dream
In a rat race but the rats want cream
In an obscene amount more than I can count
So I won't recognize that I'm drowning deep
In the oceans of life my breathe full of strife
And my head aches the stress just pounding me down
Hear comes the tears of a clown
The hottest name in the whole town this time
But the frown that's inside is hidden by my pride
Cause everything I want is mine
[Chorus:]
"But sometimes I feel the weight of the world
And its so heavy and its bringing me down" [x2]
[Verse 2:]
Wake up to another day
Gotta peek out just make sure it safe
Cause these times are changing and reshaping
Into something I cant face and it feels strange
We got religious people judging the whole world
We got pimps and hoes once boys and girls
We got the media telling us whose to blame
But whose the media who's really running the game
Gotta get up gotta shake it off
Cause life is long as an unsung song in the dark
I'm getting confused I'm getting upset
Things don't work out I'm hunting a check
Regret is creeping up my window
My life is reachin a crescendo
I gotta numb it with drank and endo
Not chasing a dream I'm wasting time
Cause everything I want is mine
[Chorus:]
"But sometimes I feel the weight of the world
And its so heavy and its bringing me down" [x2]
[Bridge:]
I'm having a great day everythings ok
I'm doing fine just don't look in my eyes [x2]
I gotta get up I gotta get up [x4]
[Chorus:]
"But sometimes I feel the weight of the world
