Songtexte Love Yourz - J. Cole

Hm, love yours
Hm, love yours
No such thing

No such thing as a life that's better than yours
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (love yourz)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours
No such thing, no such thing

Heart beatin' fast, let a - know that he alive ('live, live, live)
Fake - mad, snakes
Snakes in the grass let a - know that he arrived ('rived, rived, rived)
Don't be sleepin' on your level
'Cause it's beauty in the struggle - (beauty, beauty)
Goes for all y'all
It's beauty in the struggle - (beauty, beauty)
Let me explain, yeah

It's beauty in the struggle, ugliness in the success
Hear my words and listen to my signal of distress
I grew up in the city and know sometimes we had less
Compared to some my - down the block, man, we were blessed
And life can't be no fairy tale, no once upon a time
But I be goddamned if a - don't be tryin'

So tell me, momma please, why you be drinkin' all the time?
Does all the pain he brought you still linger in your mind?
'Cause pain still lingers on mine
On the road to riches, listen, this is what you'll find
The good news is, -, you came a long way
The bad news is, -, you went the wrong way
Think being broke was better

No such thing as a life that's better than yours (ah)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (think being broke was better)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours
(Think being broke was better, yeah) no such thing, no such thing

For what's money without happiness?
Or hard times without the people you love?
Though I'm not sure what's 'bout to happen next
I ask for strength from the Lord up above
'Cause I been strong so far, but I can feel my grip loosenin'
Quick, do somethin' before you lose it for good, get it back and use it for good
And touch the people how you did like before
I'm tired of livin' with demons 'cause they always invitin' more

Think being broke was better, now I don't mean that phrase with no disrespect
To all my - out there livin' in debt
Cashin' minimal checks, turn on the TV, see a - Rolex
And fantasize about a life with no stress
I mean this shit sincerely, and as a - who was once in your shoes
Livin' with nothin' to lose, I hope one day you hear me

Always gon' be a bigger house somewhere, but -, feel me
Long as the people in that motherfucker love you dearly
Always gon' be a whip that's better than the one you got
Always gon' be some clothes that's fresher than the ones you rock
Always gon' be a - that's badder out there on the tours
But you ain't never gon' be happy 'til you love yours

No such thing as a life that's better than yours (love yourz)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (love yourz)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (love yourz)
No such thing, no such thing

Heart beatin' fast, let a - know that he alive ('live, live, live)
Fake - mad, snakes
Snakes in the grass let a - know that he arrived ('rived, rived, rived)
