Jahzel - Chapters lyrics
rate meI always been the type of nigga that ain’t never backed down
Smartest in the class but still play the class clown
Jester to a king, I’m yelling “where is my crown?”
Schooling niggas ain’t no question, put your hands back down
Thinking “fuck ‘em”, where was y’all lot when I had nothing?
Will try to hold me back, see them niggas, they be fronting
Never give me props but I’m the theme of your discussion
They like “we love you fam, no, for real, I think we cousins”
Homie, I don’t know you, definitely do not owe you
Keep a short list of all my niggas who been loyal
Started in the soil, grew up out that bitch, we was always thinking wealthy
We was never thinking rich
You saw me on your tv, but ain’t what it appear to be
Sensitive about my art, I deal with insecurities
Promise I be yelling but it's like nobody hearing me
Always had the drive but Lord, I pray that you steering me
Focus on the future, but at times look back
Pen to the paper, put that pain on wax
Writing out my novel, hoping that I capture
A life worth living and my chapters, chapters
Focus on the future, but at times look back
Pen to the paper, put that pain on wax
Writing out my novel, hoping that I capture
A life worth living and my chapters, chapters
I can’t begin to tell you what this music shit really do mean to me
Ain’t rapping bout that cocaine but hoping that you fiending me
Hoping I don’t disappoint the people that believe in me
Ain’t satisfied with local man, I’m tryina change the scenery
My life is a movie, God is the director
And in a couple scenes my dream is laying on a stretcher
Starring in the mirror, hands on the dresser
College ain’t prepared me for real life with them lectures
You need to go back, get your degree they say
Well, if it’s that easy, would you pay my way?
It feels so criminal, I never understand it
They like “give all your money or you’ll never see your transcripts”
Life ain’t been smooth, but exactly how I planned it
Glad to be alive when a lot of niggas died
Proud to rap the truth when I could be rapping lies
Get you gems with this pen, let you niggas analyze on my chapters
Focus on the future, but at times look back
Pen to the paper, put that pain on wax
Writing out my novel, hoping that I capture
A life worth living and my chapters, chapters
Focus on the future, but at times look back
Pen to the paper, put that pain on wax
Writing out my novel, hoping that I capture
A life worth living and my chapters, chapters
Yeah, it took practice
