Lyrics 19 - Snowy Joey

Oh, this the last one? Alright

Look

It's hard to be humble once you remember exactly where you came from
A guy with a degree around me I couldn't name one
At early age I peeped surroundings and I had abstained from
Evil and the appearance and when I didn't it still felt like I barely was near it
I defeat one and still get faced with more deadlier spirits
Who would've thought I would be the one that's embellished in lyrics
All of the sleepless nights put me in this predicament
I got better and climbed up the lords ladder in increments

I went from being where barrels blown on this side of the windy
To being round people stoned, getting lifted, failing kidneys
Alcoholics, acid tripping
Still scholars, dean listed
Online shopping Netflix binging
Oh where can I fit in
Should I get closer
I should further my distance
Maybe I should keep it moving

Oh I should keep it pimping
At nineteen I had concerns but had to make some decisions
Times were changing forever and I'm for living lets get it
Lets get it, lets get it

I remember how it was some years ago
Back when I was one-nine
Took classes at Daley, was still praying for sunshine
Nothing much would phase me
Viewed life like a sight seeing
Some thought I was crazy how I talked about my pipe dreams
Ain't have much to lean on other than a couple shoulders
All those tongues against me I act like I never noticed
Folks that claimed they love me acting like they never said it
It cuts but these instrumentals have been my anesthetics

When all these waves pass all that[s left is the right music, uh
The closest ones to me don't know I write music, yeah
Some folks that[s close and know still don[t believe in me
But even Jesus was doubted by folks at home
They only saw him as being the son of Joseph
Viewing him as the young man they all once have known
So seeing even the greatest once went unnoticed
Its comforts me knowing that I'm not on my own
Yeah

Stephen you went crazy on this beat

Wait, I had to take a breathing
I chased the Jo I knew and loved once I felt it leaving
Then I realized I cant be out here teething
Cant be the same as nine teen, had to man up
Made my lyrics your sight seeings to get my fans up
No off days no more breaks for stamina
The more I train the more I gain the handle of
My craft here, no draft here
My team followed our own maps here
No baths here, ya washed up
My team eat, if you bring beef to the pot luck
Beats get ate, streets ain't safe when this drop huh
I've been improving, coming for you and your spot huh,
Stay in lane, no such thing cus we jack ball
The guided inspired in spite of all of the nonsense
Desires lit fire and now I just cannot be content
With second in contest
I know that I've won more than loss but they love to magnify flaws to be honest
I hate that I've seen that
Y'all hate that I'm genius
I ain't even peak yet
Some of y'all should reset, y'all act like this recess
I could never play around
I hope I'll just see you soon if you decide not to stay around
