lyrics

(JuneThaKid)

I ain’t felt this way since I was 17 baby
I feel like everything be better than it seems lately
I’m tryna change my life with what I love doing, but the chances of it slim, so to most people it seem crazy

My dreams is bigger, I’m moving different this year
Spent way too many years living in fear
Till I saw the fruits of my labor start to sprout and appear
That lit a fire under me, I had to kick it in gear

Sometimes I wanna kick my feet up, reminisce and just chill
But that’s another day that I ain’t put up shots in the gym
And that’s more distance getting put between my start and my end
You gotta think like that, cause this shit competition ya dig?

It’s so many haters who Lowkey wanna spit on the kid
But that’s okay cause all they women wanna sit on the kid
I dropped a EP for the love and now they feeling the kid
And now I’m thriving every time because my vision is clear my nigga

Knew I had sewed, way before I had a fan
Foundation was gone, had to build it with my hands
Took a leap of faith when I ain’t even have a plan
Who’d a thought I’d ever land

But I’m just tryna make it out, just like the greatest
I've been on blogs, I’m tryna get up in your playlist
When they throw stones, we shoulder roll em and keep playing
The future bright and that ain’t no debating
I want this shit forever

($aiku)

I’ve realized I’m just too old to go at half speed
Since fifth grade a nigga plotted on this rap scheme
That passion grew to gnawing hunger I had bad dreams
of finding out this shit is out my damn reach

Pushed aside the fears and realized that it was on me
Poured my heart out over this wax and let my soul bleed
My grind like migrant work teams how I sow seed
Caught the cities ear got even haters rooting for me

Because in known for hopping on this tracks and turning Vorhees
shorty nowadays suckin it like they tryna absorb me
hatin niggas pressed we everywhere they can’t ignore these
Melancholy musings I’ve been moving by the unit Till my money speak is fluent

Cuz nobody ever listen when your money's small as Stuart
Either way when on these tracks I drop my nuts you niggas eunuchs
As I cut through the confusion pray to god I never lose myself/ forreal
Basement

Knew I had sewed, way before I had a fan

Took a leap of faith when I ain’t even have a plan
Who’d a thought I’d ever land

But I’m just tryna make it out, just like the greatest
I've been on blogs, I’m tryna get up in your playlist
When they throw stones, we shoulder roll em and keep playing
The future bright and that ain’t no debating
I want this shit forever
