Jelani - De La Vega lyrics

rate me

I used to go out, and try now work for a profit,

But .. I have my net worth in my pocket.

Broke as hell…

This bullshit I’m eating might kill me…

Holly, if you hear me is me against the world,

I guess I’m doing fine,

It could be much worst…

I’m locked off every day in my room,

…and I’ma do this to the local!

They say follow your heart and everything will fall in place,

So I’m trying to have faith just in case!

This cash rules everything around me,

I wanna see the world even if you don’t allow me!

It’s still… I gotta keep the pending paper with me,

And this I just another thing in the city!

Chorus:

It’s just another day in the city, …in the Brooks.

The smoke around town, this is beautiful,

You gotta stop and take a look!

It’s not what it is, it’s what you make it,

And it could be better, but I’m taking it!

It’s not what it is, it’s what you make it,

And it could be better, but I’m taking it!

..look what he said to us,

If.. is looking down, I hope he prayed for us!

..it’s a shame, I see what my old …say things ain’t the same!

Cause back there we were…

And now we’re all about…

And I ain’t trying to say I’m perfect, I’ve got my own vices,

Whenever you lose sight of what life is, beep it!

A bad day to us is a broken phone,

….and the boss will leave us alone!

.. for example, a family and everything they own is…

For good.. and now, what if that was you, could you handle it back?

That type of thing is a reality in life,

Take a second, reflect, just imagine what it’s like!

Chorus:

It’s just another day in the city, …in the Brooks.

The smoke around town, this is beautiful,

You gotta stop and take a look!

It’s not what it is, it’s what you make it,

And it could be better, but I’m taking it!

It’s not what it is, it’s what you make it,

And it could be better, but I’m taking it!

… hoping things never stay the same,

I’m stressed out, doing my best to maintain!

I’m trying to be the son my pops wants me,

The one my mom raced, so my job I am on it!

.. by the facts and… black men in America can be dimmed if I quit,

I was born a competitor, every single day is a .. state of mind,

By any means give it, I’m forever on the ground like…

But when I’m on the mike my mind just go free!

..I’m a solo star, this why I go so far,

And I own no garbage shit, I’m on the road

So take a ride with me anywhere you wanna go!

Chorus:

It’s just another day in the city, …in the Brooks.

The smoke around town, this is beautiful,

You gotta stop and take a look!

It’s not what it is, it’s what you make it,

And it could be better, but I’m taking it!

It’s not what it is, it’s what you make it,

And it could be better, but I’m taking it!
