Lyrics

I don’t write verses for fun
We been out working for crumbs
Til the seeds we planting pay my fees on the first of the month
Those who try to make believe that I don’t deserve it is dumb
Just gimme a beat that got some space to put words to the drums
Just gimme the peace to find my place of encouragement son
I know everybody got some pain that no Percocets numb
Ask me for some tips on knowing worth, just refer to step 1
Gotta love yourself that’s the birth to defer deception
Hard for me to rest when there’s success I prefer to get done
Like making sure y'all nod ya head until you hear vertebrates crunch
Promise y'all I prolly know more verses than sermons and nuns
Delivery low effort cuz this message determined to come
Dark hours, dark clouds
I been keeping track on making bars count
I been keeping track on making bars count
I been keeping track on making bars count
Dark hours, dark clouds
I been keeping track on making bars count
I been keeping track on making bars count
I been keeping track on making bars count
All things considered I’m more blessed than I give credit for
Tryna leave a message in a metaphor
Every time I press record 'til presses hit the record store
Depression’s on my record, sure
Want Franklins but no Eleanor
They be like the truth ain’t lookin' good
Then what you tell it for?
Every innocent defendant sitting in appellate courts
Always been petite just like I’ve known that life is hella short.
Tryna be present in moments I’d like to teleport
You can disagree and still be well-informed
Give the element of surprise the way we weather storms
I say “cry, baby” although it hurts when my fella mourns
Cuz in our weakness God is already strong
Dark hours, dark clouds
I been keeping track on making bars count
I been keeping track on making bars count
I been keeping track on making bars count
Dark hours, dark clouds
I been keeping track on making bars count
I been keeping track on making bars count
I been keeping track on making bars count
