Prelude To A Million
Glory
Y'all still in the way tho
We still got shit to play foe
I still got shit to pay foe
Prelude let's get it get it
Glory for our ancestors
Glory's what we manifesting
Stopping now that's out the question
Prelude let's get it get it
Time stops whenever I drop
Concrete whenever I rock
This ain't for no IHeart
This is ain't for no kiddie bops
This one here's for the hard workers, for the blue collar and the street earners
Blacks folk and white folks let's come together and let nothin between us
Practice love that's my genius
Visions clear I've done seen it
Glory thru my kids eyes
They the ones that made me a believer
It's deeper than rap
Fuck money it's deeper than that
The bed you lay you sleepin in that
Hopefully that's where yo dreams is at
Take no shit like I'm Trip
Frontlines I don't slip
I do kill wit my drip
Activated wit one sip
No debating I'm not Skip
But Undisputed on yo list
Rock-a-bye goodnight kiss
MUAH
This Glory
Glory
Glory
One incredible impeccable the most respectable
What I got called classic gold collectable
You ain't fuckin with the team let's make that clear
Straight from the belly of the beast can you face your fear
This is not your year
This is all on me
I'ma take my crown
Let me get my round
I done been around held it down
This ain't new to me go pound for pound usually
More smoke than usual the Cali bud is beautiful
I'm due to blow I planted the seed and it's due to grow
Working hard still getting the dirt up out my cuticles
Lucid flow I shine like a diamond on a goofy though
Victorious it's glorious what I do it for
In the name of the Prelude the Strenf and these holy lyrics
I don't do this for clout I rap to keep away evil spirits
Demons steady surround a Villain as expected
So I lace angelical flows to keep my ass protected
And I'm still here
And it's real clear
I was put on this Earth for a purpose
And that is to bring the whole underground up to the surface
And it's workin
J said to kill it so I smashed the duck
Hopped in an Uber goin fast as fuck
Our story is what's so glorious
Fam notorious
Yes
Glory
Glory

Promised I wouldn't move backwards
But I can't help from relapsing
The minute it feels like i got control the more that my questions need answers
Told everybody I let you go but i keep holding on to something
Riding 'round on cruise control, though you hurt me so
I'll Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Can't stop it, won't drop it the music keep pulling me in
Can't knock it, we drop it and drop it then Do It Again
Tic Tock it won't stop til we clockin, we clockin them M's
Prelude to a Million, you know where the story begins
I was in Juco, watchin all my niggas flip weight like Tuco
John A. Logan doggin hoes like Kujo
Sayin fuck class I'm bigger than a sumo wrestler
Wrestling all my problems
Looking around like who knows
Passin out CDs like if you didn't know
Now YOU KNOW
Then Rivard hit me on MySpace
Met Tock and K.D. tho
Askin who BZ was
Who would've ever thought we'd be kinfolk
Then I met Jazz at Tres she loved my style from then on we get in hoe
Wouldn't change a thing I Do It Again, I'd Do It Again wit more info
Promised I wouldn't move backwards
But I can't help from relapsing
The minute it feels like i got control the more that my questions need answers
Told everybody I let you go but i keep holding on to something
Steady riding 'round on cruise control, though it hurts me so
I'll Do It Again
Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Do it Again
Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Do it Again
Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Do It Again
Do It Again
Do It Again
Do It Again
Just when I thought I was out
I fuck around and let it pull me back in
But there ain't no tellin where a Villain might be if he wasn't out here rappin
And I just reunited with the family so we fixin to get shit crackin
And this time we tryna make a lil bit of somethin somethin off the backend
It just keep calling and calling me
I give it all of me the heart of me
The hardest me regardless we push our pen to the limit
Bars like a prison
I ain't gone stop yeah its endless
Even if I'm penny pinching I'm paying attention
Bumping prolific and writing religion
Rehearsing the verses God give me
Reefer and bottles of henny
Long as my family is with me that a be plenty
Thinking and praying for patience
Walking this journey of greatness
Even with bumps in the road I go
Promised I wouldn't move backwards
But I can't help from relapsing
The minute it feels like i got control the more that my questions need answers
Told everybody I let you go but i keep holding on to something
Steady riding 'round on cruise control, though it hurts me so
I'll Do It Again
Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Do it Again
Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Do it Again
Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Do It Again
Do It Again
Do It Again
Do It Again
I feel the music in my soul
I'm wondering, where'd the time go
I think I love you on the low
I think I'm in love on the low
She keep keep keep me coming back
We making love on the track
I guess I'm addicted to all of this
I press the mic upon my lips
Maybe I'm getting too close
My heart's about to explode
She got got got me on the low
I can't keep keep from saying no
Promised I wouldn't move backwards
But I can't help from relapsing
The minute it feels like i got control the more that my questions need answers
Told everybody that I'd let you go but i keep holding on to something
Steady riding 'round on cruise control, though it hurts me so
I'll Do It Again
Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Do it Again
Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Do it Again
Do It Again
I'll Do It Again
Do It Again

Wild Boy like Machine Gun yeah Prelude's been on a mean run
Sorry haters ain't over yet

Wherever I'm at y'all know it's snowin
But ion ever get cold feet
You know Dub just came to eat

Still in it like D.R.E.

All the way from So Ill
Who knew it'd get this Trill

Good lordy oh heavens it's
The annual family reunion for 2022
Cookin the crew up somethin new
What up Fam what it do
It's been a minute I admit
That I've been obstinate wit it
But I stay wit 10 toes down ridin wit the click
We been workin so damn hard for it this is it
So now we can just kick back and reap all of the mothafuckin benefits
Shout out all of my people even the ones who gave up on me
You might no longer fuck wit me
But you get nothin but love from me
STRENF
That's the motto
Prelude's a hard act to follow
And when we hit the booth tell you the truth
Feels like we hit the lotto
Watch me Frankenstein a beat so me and my cohorts we can keep feastin
Just gotta find out where the Manbeast is
Shit we could do this every weekend
Now tell your friends
To get with my friends
And we can be friends
OK

Keep em runnin keep em comin
Keep it shakin make it hot

This that get up moment this that out on the town
This that cruise control 80 headed south blunt in the mouth
Comfy like girl on the couch I got the ounce and the bounce
I can get peace on the road so I keep the piece in the house
Fuck is you talking about
If you ain't putting in work or walking a mile
You ain't in the field with the Lude
You ain't in the feel with this mood and throwing my energy off
Throwing my energy off
You throwing my
Let me put on my protectors
And I'ma just meditate
They say time is of the essence
So I aint gone hesitate
I live life learn lessons

Can't have glory no guts
Can't have muscle no tough

Miss Me Back
03:59
|

Miss me
You don't miss me back
Miss me
You don't miss me back
That one in a million
Come so many times in my little mind
And I gotta be outta my mind to think I can find a perfect design
A person like I
Locked eyes
Intertwined
Mob ties
Connected
But beautiful things get ugly in seconds
And I wanna be optimistic
Sometimes love can be really elusive
Don't want nobody all in yo business
But you wanna feel really exclusive
If I go there you don't wanna go there
I get left in the middle of nowhere
Man it's hard when you move with your heart
Built a house just to tear it apart
Keeping the dog
Nah I'm playing
But you had me fucked up I'm just sayin
Want no smoke I'll just say that it's my fault
You a winner it's definitely my loss
Indeed
I'm addicted to you like the weed
Method Man you are all that I need
I'm the one if you really believe
I can never blame you
If we both got the issues
Understand it wasn't clear to me
I thought you would get rid of me
Never could forget you
So if I say I miss you
I feel like I had my heart attacked
If you don't say I miss you back
Miss me
You don't miss me back
Miss me
You don't miss me back
Know I was wrong but didn't know how it affected you
I know, it's all about me but didn't understand til we was through
Communication wasn't bleeding thru
I confided, who listened to you
Shoulda set some kind of boundaries
Hell I thought everything was cool
Silly me
Thinkin I could just do whatever and there would be no consequence
I was living with devils, man my trauma made me lose common sense
Trust issues
Lust issues
Thru all the hoes, I only missed you
If the shoe fits I wear it now cuz that glass slipper only fits you
Can't apologize but I move different thanks to you
Thanks
Changed behavior's the best apology, here's to you
I just wish you missed me back
Still friends, can we go back
Your view of me has changed now
And I don't really know how to deal w that
I can never blame you
If we both got the issues
Understand it wasn't clear to me
I thought you would get rid of me
Never could forget you
So if I say I miss you
I feel like I had my heart attacked
If you don't say I miss you back
Miss me
You don't miss me back
Miss me
You don't miss me back
Aww shit
Villy gotta put another love up in the Obits
I got omitted
Lady hit me wit that pink slip
Man, that's no kiddin, well
Another one bites the dust
But I'd be lyin if I said that seein you doin fine didn't drive me nuts
Trust
I know that I can be a pain in the ass
It's true
But if anybody was to give me a pass on that
Baby girl, it's you
What should I do
When I hop off the road I wanna see my homie
If only
Got me out here doin this work all by my lonely
Same ol story
Different chapter
Brand new season
Wit a different cast, but
It's all love
And them's the facts
Even when I'm missin you
But you don't miss me back
I can never blame you
If we both got the issues
Understand it wasn't clear to me
I thought you would get rid of me
Never could forget you
So if I say I miss you
I feel like I had my heart attacked
If you don't say I miss you back
Miss me
You don't miss me back
Miss me
You don't miss me back

Prelude
What’s good Fam
STRENF
Yeah
Now I know we all got problems
But a Villain done been in some sticky situations
Ever since back in the day when I ended up right back down in my mama’s basement
But somehow someway
I always overcame the bullshit I was face-to-face wit
Tryna delay me on a daily basis
It’s baseless
Cuz even though I ain’t shit yet
From today til I’m ancient, bet
I’ma keep it authentic
I never changed I just made adjustments
And that’s life
And I figured it all out when I was whippin the 405 south
Takin Encino to Pico wit the homie Picco
When I found out what it was about
See I was doin rap shit way before I started rappin
It just so happens
The former got me popped in dorm rooms
While the latter built me a ladder so I could make more moves
So here I stand pen in my left hand cone in the other
You know Villy’s a bad motha
Shut yo mouth
Shout out to my Boma brothers
There is no other
I am the first born son of Mary yeah word to my mother
Hi, Mom
You can try to imitate it
It can’t be duplicated
What you got might be hot but it’s not Tock
What’s with all the talkin
You don’t know me
Mama always taught me
How to stay in my lane
Tho the world gets ugly
You can’t hold me
From nothin to somethin
You’ll be sayin my name
What’s with all the talkin
You don’t know me
Mama always taught me
How to stay in my lane
Tho the world gets ugly
You can’t hold me
From nothin to somethin
You’ll be sayin my sayin my name
Can you match my high potency
High octane straight drop dopamine
This is pure just how it suppose to be
I don't think you should stand too close to me
Got a short fuse gone light it
Let set this world on fire
It's a must that crush everything that touch
Better trust that this girls on fire
You don't wanna get burnt by the blaze
You don't wanna get stuck in my way
Aint no letting up in the game
You gotta play like you playing to win
I said it once I won't say it again
J is a master serve church like a pastor
Feels good to be blessed let the church say Amen
Playing with the cards that I'm served
J got a way with the words
Quick to kick a bum to the curb
Flyer than the wings on a bird
Get it shaking like the leaves on the trees
Blow trees like the wind in Belize
More trees than your lungs can believe
Only half that your eyes really see. So
What’s with all the talkin
You don’t know me
Mama always taught me
How to stay in my lane
Tho the world gets ugly
You can’t hold me
From nothin to somethin
You’ll be sayin my name
What’s with all the talkin
You don’t know me
Mama always taught me
How to stay in my lane
Tho the world gets ugly
You can’t hold me
From nothin to somethin
You’ll be sayin my sayin my name
Been the talk of the town now they pissed off
Dub got his own business he can’t stop
Like the time don’t stop on a wrist watch
I just keep on tickin like I’m Tic Tock
Ugh
I’m certainly blessed
Yeah it looks good but my life is a mess
Neva pump fake, know I’m 20K in debt,
That’s just child support, I ain’t gotta speak on the rest
Illinois got me fucked up
But incredible Dub gon always grab a come up
Perry County shut the fuck up
Yeah I got a vendetta from the time they had me cuffed up
Shit I been around my kids they whole damn life
No money gon ever amount to that price
Keep fuckin all these bitches yeah THATS LIFE
Gotta live with regrets of those two nights
But fuck all the talkin
Everybody in my town gon be
Sayin my
Sayin my name

Ahhh
Dub
Whoo
Drinkin some of that B Spills brews
Yeah
Lotta made songs
Lotta living, some the right way some wrong
Enough to write the day away my life too much for just a song
I could drink the day away and it won't feel like too long
Tryna find my cause don't get sick of rappin
Said I didn't wanna push 30 still rappin
Pushing 40 and we still think it all could happen
I just wanna motivate the people no cappin
Cuz back then didn't know how much the world would CHANGE
Who knew I'd get better with the grace of age
Ayye
Lived life on a stage
Life thru my lens from the pen to the page
I neva will complain
Not quite how we want it
But did what we wanted
What else could you want out of life besides some money
Smiling on the days even when it ain't sunny
But don't take it for a weakness ain't a damn thing sweet around here
Just another day in the life
If it's wrong gotta make things right
Always keep the vision in sight
That's right
Just another day
Chillin in the hood
Just another day around the way
Feelin good today
Feelin good today
Will they reminisce over you
I remember hightop fades in 92
Adidas shoes rocked loose with no laces
Barbecues and pretty girls with braces
And beautiful smiles
The innocence of a child
Me and DBell trying to kick our lil freestyles
It took a while but finally got my skills up
My cup runneth over that time it was filling up
We never had much but it was still enough
At the mall pulling numbers girls wasn't feeling us
But it was still a rush
Wish we were still in touch
and fuck Facebook that shit ain't fulfilling us
The hood is still in us what it instilled in us
Tore many down but the Five Percent it built us up
Still the healing must continue
We are no longer begging for a spot dawg we purchasing the venue
With Brother Tock on the instrumental
It's just another day let's see what we can get into
Call the Queen Jazz cause you know that she's kin too
Illantis and Prelude it's time to see what these mills do
Like just another day in the neighborhood
Just another day around the way
Feeling good today so I play a lil Marvin Gaye
Just another day in the life
If it's wrong gotta make things right
Always keep the vision in sight
That's right
Just another day
Chillin in the hood
Just another day around the way
Feelin good today
Feelin good today
Just another day in the life
If it's wrong gotta make things right
Always keep the vision in sight
That's right
Just another day
Chillin in the hood
Just another day around the way
Feelin good today
Feelin good today
Always been a thinker
Then became a writer
Trained with the pen
Lyrically a fighter
I served words and kicked lines
Knee high at this time
Still had a swift mind
Quick on my feet with it
Tryna reach my pinnacle
Cuzzo know I been in tune
I was just a shorty freestyling in granny's living room
Music always moved me I done been in plenty rooms
I done fucked up plenty pads don't know where the ceiling
Crazy
The meek shall inherit the earth somebody save me
J is a child of God somebody's baby
I gotta grow you blocking my shine then you gotta go
Adios I be with guys I grew up with rooted
I be showing love to the ones that I'm close to
Loyalty my job I work hard like I'm supposed to
Keep the negativity at bay
Bring good energy my way
Yeah it's just another day
Just another day in the life
If it's wrong gotta make things right
Always keep the vision in sight
That's right
Just another day
Chillin in the hood
Just another day around the way
Feelin good today
Feelin good today

We done came in this game wit a song
And we just came to rock it with you
And we done came in this game wit a song
And we just came to rock it with you you you you
I say way-o way-o
This is J though aint no way no
You gone think we play though
It's the Prelude in yo face hoe
You Jose Canseco
Out here telling all yo business
Aint no secret is it
That we coming for your position
This is proper planning
I'm in proper motion
Walking on you cock-a-roaches
So ferocious
Super focused
Fuck the bogus
I don't need that
Where the blunts
Where the yak
Where the weed at
Front door of the city where the keys at
Skirt skirt on you bitches I aint seen that
Don't believe that
J a monster under the bed
Prelude the people under the stair
You either be scared or be prepared
It's basically clear the beast is here
You get X'd out by the X-Men
It's our turn you the next man
Keep it cool though be the best fan
Or get yo grape crushed be the next can
I hope you don't think you fuckin with me
No no no
You can't believe you can fuck with the team
We won't go
Either you high or you stuck in a dream
You stuck
The Prelude sick like a fuckin disease
Prelude
And we done came in this game wit a song
And we just came to rock it with you
As these clouds keep movin along
These Panoramic Images are comin into view
And we done came in this game wit a song
And we just came to rock it with you
Now these crowds keep movin along
Started a Prelude and now our dreams are comin true
Jump off
Set it off
Dub-Z gon bet it all
Cold beer in my right hand
Faded off that alcohol
And we done came in this game wit a song
And we just came to rock it with you
As these clouds keep movin along
These Panoramic Images are comin into view
And we done came in this game wit a song
And we just came to rock it with you
Now these crowds keep movin along
Started a Prelude and now our dreams are comin true
I’m a man of my word
Told y’all back in aught-seven I was authentic
Never becoming part of the herd
Perhaps you’ve seen me ever so freely flippin that bird wit supreme verve
Forever curvin anybody wit the nerve to get down and dirty
Tryna disservice me wit disturbances
That might sound cold
But lately I been on a roll
Stayin off the books and on the road
Makin a livin outta doin what I wasn’t told
Damn that’s bold
Bold
Cuz I take risks
May not be the right way but let’s face it
I’ma make it
Cuz I’m stubborn and won’t accept another outcome that ain’t shit
Til I’m laid six feet under I’ma keep bringin the lightening and thunder
Boom
And it’s Prelude forever
So you don’t ever have to wonder where we’ve been
We’ve been workin our asses off
All that petty shit
Gets dismissed bitch we just pass it off
They been askin for it
So here it is
Back in the booth and we back to business
Got the kids sayin who is this you listenin to
This the shit dude
This the Prelude Fam man
Just keepin it movin my G
On this quest to be one of the best in the biz
Indubitably
And we done came in this game wit a song
And we just came to rock it with you
As these clouds keep movin along
These Panoramic Images are comin into view
And we done came in this game wit a song
And we just came to rock it with you
Now these crowds keep movin along
Started a Prelude and now our dreams are comin true

I'm Ill
I don't usually rap slow
But tonight I'm finna
Get up in that ass like a gerbil on this instrumental
I'm a Villain
But I'm mu'fuckin nice tho
But I swear I'ma lose my shit if these lyin ass kids don't put down that mic bro
Man I applaud the creativity
Really we need more of that shit
But Villy be really peeved off wit these soft and silly weak actors
Sayin this and that but they really ain't a factor
And you ain't got the balls to fuck wit this Mastermind
Killin these rhymes at the drop of a dime
Every fuckin time, I'm
The T-I-C
The last of a dyin breed
Think twice 'fore you think about tryin me
Sicker than COVID-19
R.I.P.
Somebody sound the alarm
This shit right here is not a drill
Bout to take it around the globe
And let em know
That mothafucka I'm Ill
Yeah
Illa than that Nebraska nigga
Colder than an Alaskan river
Illa like no Covid mask
I'm illa like those closet racists, that's so ill
Confederate flags on big trucks that fly by, that's so real
Back roads wit a cracked brew and a lit blunt, that's so chill
Ridin round wit no license on me that's '06
Old thrills
Illa like those Stix days
Illa like I need sick days
God rested on the seventh so I could have the world in six days
Ion need no time
Ion need no motivation
All I need is a rhyme
A cold beer and some inspiration
I inspire y'all perspiration wit no sweat
No sweat
Look around I see everything
Everything but no threats
Illa like I'm from Du Quoin
Illa like I need ER
Illa like from Illinois
Somebody sound the alarm
Somebody sound the alarm
This shit right here is not a drill
Bout to take it around the globe
And let em know
That mothafucka I'm Ill
Sick like I put the Ill in Illinois
You bark like a dog
Got the muzzle I'ma kill that noise
You don't wanna feel that pressure
You don't wanna get on no extra
This bed is not your regular
You don't wanna be on no stretcher
And I ain't boastin or overconfident I'm just better
And with this pen I got this pin I ain't no let up
The Strenf got strong
The Prelude's on
Yeah that's the setup
You might get drowned
But you gon get wet up
However you want it
Whenever you need it
Mission completed
I see no
I see no opponents
Competition deleted
They cool
But tell me what's cool to a flow that's anemic
Throw up bulimic
Yeah J be sicker than all these chronic diseases
Get your head set
You need bed rest and a tube to help with your breathin
Have to make an emergency call
All you did was just give me a reason
Somebody sound the alarm
This shit right here is not a drill
Bout to take it around the globe
And let em know
That mothafucka I'm Ill

Prelude Shit
Ok OK
Yeah
Screamin OK like Murks do
Screamin OK it's Prelude
Know that we the livest in the venue
Hit the market we gon show em what them legs do
Fuck the bullshit we been overdue
The process got me smokin weed residue
Focused on the grind til it's black and it's blue
But it's hard to relax while I'm drinking black and blue
That's wine
Never get rich that's fine
But I'm in a trapper state of mind
Not only just a rapper but the business doin fine
Wit the COVID 1-9 and harassing one time
I'm
Dub-Z
B Spill
If y'all didn't know now you know the deal
When I zone out, need my crazy pills
Prelude to Mills
Y'all know the real
OK
Yeah
OK
OK
OK
Okie Dokie
I smoke ring around the rosie
With a pocket fulla you ain't gotta know
Aye mind your own B
Keep your distance
Don't be trippin
Or you end up fallin
I don't need no conversation unless it's money callin
Hello
Ok OK
I know they salty oh bae
They hate but they show no face
Get served straight up with no chase
Bars
Ok OK
The Prelude made they own way
Think you could stop us no way
You better pray and be safe
On God
On God
On God
On God
Ok OK
Feelin like a kid on a snow day
Ain't no way you could impede
Any minus energy we gon send it back your way
Go play in traffic with your silly ass
Might be savage
But life's already too damn short
So it's important that we not make it tragic
Focus on yourself
I'ma do the same
May not be a picture of good health nor wealthy
But a Villain can't complain, mane
I'm just livin to the best of my abilities
Don't really care if you ain't feelin me
I'ma be OK
Prelude in the buildin
Prelude To A Million is Ok OK
Ok OK

Ok OK

I got my Adrian even when the shit get rocky
Copy
Neva let a good thing pass, because ya ego
If ya stay true it’ll last just like how we roll
Tryna find angels outta demons we call people
We all equal see the good in everybody, we all evil yeah
Gettin better everyday
Slow it down meditate
Do right by ya people
And they will never leave you
Change the way they see you
Be a better you
I’m not tryna preach to none of y’all I’m going thru it too
Sometines the answers ain’t there, ya let it go
And then solutions seem to drop from thin air, that’s god workin
And he know if anything I’m not perfect I’m still searching
I got worth and I got purpose and the fam still know I got LOYALTY
Loyalty
I got you tho
I got you bro
The impossible
Now that’s a rocky road
A lot of obstacles
I got yo back you got my back
And life ain’t guaranteed

Loyalty
Let’s keep it a hundred
Ain’t nobody perfect
It’s all about angles
I am just praying I see the light
My guardian angel
I know we all don't see alike
And nobody can change you
If looking down you looking up
Then who gone save who
You see the point of view
It's different for me and you
Now I can just pull you up with me
Or I could look up with you
As long as the sky is the limit
Then nothing can stop how we get it
You say you ridin forever
Forever I'll always be with it
Forever's a mighty long time
And time is not on our side
I got yo back you got my back And that's just how we gone ride
Forever's a mighty long time
And time is not on our side
You got my back I got yo back and that's just how we gone ride
You got no idea what we go through
Just to entertain you
Nowadays I can’t be worried bout the negativity that used to get at me and bring a Villain down
Right away and in a hurry from the A.M. to the P.M. I’ma get it in until I’m underground
So Dub-Z gon and pour up that whiskey
Diction twist the sticky
I’ma toast to the fact that we killin these raps
Cuz you never know how many more flows I got in me
I been over the river
And burned through a few Backwoods
Been around the block
But still remained Tock
And at that I’m that good
But that might be hard to identify with
When your whole life been a lie, shit
What you lack in authenticity you will be penalized with
That’s just how it goes
I guess that’s just the way it is
That’s why I only ride when it’s family business
And that’s exactly what this is
Prelude
It’s tradition that we rip shit
Whole fam damily need to be treated like royalty
Team full of kinds and queens got that
Loyalty
I got you tho
I got you bro
The impossible
Now that’s a rocky road
A lot of obstacles
I got yo back you got my back
And life ain’t guaranteed
Loyalty
I got you tho
I got you bro
The impossible
Now that’s a rocky road
A lot of obstacles
I got yo back you got my back
And life ain’t guaranteed
Loyalty
You got no idea what we go through
Just to entertain you
You got no idea what we go through
Just to entertain you
