Jelly Roll - Lose Your Soul Lyrics

Lyrics Lose Your Soul - Jelly Roll



Back when I was younger, 15 years old
I was trying to figure out where I'm gonna go
I was out trying to find a block of gold, a rainbow
I was chasing a rainbow
Used to ride out every day all alone
Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold
Now I think about the words my mama told
She said, "You can have it all but, don't lose your soul"
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul
When I was 15, they said I was destined to fail
Preacher man told me, I was headed to hell
He told me death was the wage of sin
And a young man with so much anger, caged within
Riding 'round reminiscence, I'm thinking how I used to be
Judge said that I was a danger to my community
But back then I felt like I knew it all
I was selling cocaine when other kids were shooting ball
I'm tellin' you all the truth, my life was a movie y'all
Shit, you better tell them red, we've been through it all
From close caskets, to different court dates
But 'cause we know, that this life ain't a short thing
Back when I was younger, 15 years old
I was trying to figure out where I'm gonna go
I was out trying to find a block of gold, a rainbow
I was chasing a rainbow
Used to ride out every day all alone
Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold
Now I think about the words my mama told
She said, "You can have it all but, don't lose your soul"
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul
Mama said, there will be days like this
I was a young man, just trying to make it rich
Cocaine, was a rich man's high, and I was broke
So, I found a couple rich guys, that snorted coke
I remember rollin' up, brown weed in a Philly
Smoking it and hearing scenes probably, that shit was silly
And now it's hard to believe, that I was that guy at all
And now I keep on slippin', and I'm trying not to fall
I'm fucking different, woman trying to not get involved
'Cause the higher we fly, the harder we fall
And through it all, God never let me go I
I said a prayer every day, and I kept my soul
Back when I was younger, 15 years old
I was trying to figure out where I'm gonna go
I was out trying to find a block of gold, a rainbow
I was chasing a rainbow
Used to ride out every day all alone
Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold
Now I think about the words my mama told
She said, "You can have it all but, don't lose your soul"
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul
I'm feeling like the phoenix, how I'm raisin' from the ashes
Now every mixed tape is a white trash classic
To tell y'all the truth, it's been a long road
We came a long way, but we still got so far to go
Do this for my brother in the federal pen
And I promise, you ain't going back ever again
Back then, we were kids trying not to make the news
Now we got this music thing, and I think it's breaking through
But hold up, back then we had it so rough
Used to do a couple shows but nobody showed up
Now everybody knows us, they're like here comes trouble, damn
I can't wait til I see my brother struggle, come on
Back when I was younger, 15 years old
I was trying to figure out where I'm gonna go
I was out trying to find a block of gold, a rainbow
I was chasing a rainbow
Used to ride out every day all alone
Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold
Now I think about the words my mama told
She said, "You can have it all but, don't lose your soul"
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul
