[Chorus: J-Work]
I done seen a lot of lies
Witnessed a lot of hurt
Tryna get to this money im losing myself first
Can I get it right x2
[Verse: J-Work]
This a letter from my soul to you
Found this inspiration ima make up something new
I been on a path, don’t know where I’m going too
I just know I’m led by the light and the light has led to truth
Look at the youth and the ones they listen too
Mentals be crashing just like a bandicoot
It’s crazy what crystals and the gems will do
I swear I’m nothing perfect but the message that I say is true
Get up on yo grind get yo paper dog
Have a talk with god get yo faith up awe
Cursed with life trauma from the things I saw
Overdoses and them blood stains on my floors
It’s something scary my dude
Visit cuzzo he was cooking had the stash in the roof
In the stu he had the shotty in the back of the booth
Someone run up they get done up it’s a magical poof woah
But that’s when my goals changed
I gotta keep it real I’m tryna make the hall of fame
And have a icy watch to match my ring and all my chains
Gotta find a way to shine through the darkness and the pain
[Chorus 2: J-Work]
I done seen a lot of lies
Witnessed a lot of hurt
Tryna get to this money im losing myself first
Can I get it right x2
Yeah I made my mistakes
I don't know how to fix em
Got me all outta wack I can't even find a rhythm
Can I make it right (x2)
[Verse 2: J-Work]
Talking to my dad he always taught me lessons
Work for what you have and always sit and count ya blessings
God is mighty and honestly we the ones he’s testing
Face adversity beat the devil and tell the reverend
This my testimony
I’m doing better homie
I’m tryna get it right The devils steady pressing on me
But I’m protected and all my demons accept it
Save heal inspire you hear the tone of my message
I’m preaching it to the choir let the people know
Feed yo passion it’s gonna lead where you wanna go
But get yo money you best get up on yo hustle tho
So What you need hit the squad boy it’s on the floor
Woah oh oh
I’m turning tracks to gold boy
Girl come ova give a damn bout ol boy
Disney plus and blunts we can be stuck for months
Roll roll roll
We gone smoke smoke smoke
I been on some other shit forreal
Dapping up my idols really gave me chills
Chip told me I got a spot if I’m up the hills up in LA?
Well shit I guess we there forreal
[Chorus 3: J-Work]
I done seen a lot of lies
Witnessed a lot of hurt
Tryna get to this money im losing myself first
Can I get it right x2
Yeah I made my mistakes
I don't know how to fix em
Got me all outta wack I can't even find a rhythm
Can I make it right (x2)
[Verse 3: J-Work]
Night shows just too boost my confidence
Drinking losing my consciousness
Partially blind up in the oculus
But still I try to be an optimist
A poet speaking words of the streets
Facing every demon and beast
I just need some relief
Maybe that’s why I chief
Put some wax on the blunt and then you sprinkle the keef
Geesh
You see them broads
You see the money
You see the cars
Clubs going dummy
It only make me hungry boy it’s motivation
Instantly returned to home and started slaving
It’s my creation
From all my preparation
Pure determination mixed with education
I’m coming for the thrown you thought I was playing
I’m living in a world that needs a lot of saving
Clark Kent hiding the S on my chest
My time spent learning the art of finesse
Cuz any path taken It leads to success
Why oh why is they tryna test my intellect
Talking bout they need respect
Boy that shit is earned now
Giving it to get it nah man we don’t fuck around
Drizzy dream shut it down
Always got the better sound
Graduate to GOAT reservations on my cap and gown
My city need a savior I’m gunning just like I’m baker
I’m smoking on some Jamaica looking for the finest flavor you haters
Dame got the games Spetrino copping the papers
Smoking on that good good
Like my Nigga whis fader
On this mic I always make a thriller
Rest In Peace to Michael Rest In Peace to Mac Miller
I’m always gone remember they was colder than December
They my idols nothing perfect but eternity they entered
I been trying to watch my temper
I been trying to get myself right
I’m facing my problems admitting my mistakes, and hopefully maybe I’ll get some sleep tonight
