Make my day lyrics 1 Got haters out there, trynna get in my mind Let me b real, boom bitty bye bye Some thinking that I’m a prick, some think I’m a nice guy I witnessed a lot of times , I thought I was gunna die Like— I ain’t even kiddin it Never left the block, so really I’m still living it Colder that treat me the more I get more inventitive Some say they’ll put me sleep, like their a sedative Fake tho, they only gunna threaten when messaging Sayin what they can’t , in a rant, so then if effortless Kickin more shit when they typin, then David Beckham is Shout the real, I hope you know I’m respecting it Kind of hard to find, there’s only a few left in it Will it stay the same or change, its indefinite A lot folks making me sick, I need medicine I don’t blunt of the gas, I need ten of them Ch Go ahead punk try to make my day, —Try to make my day Go Do another bump, of that god damn yay, of that god damn yay Start blabbing from the mouth, bout back in those days Bout back in those days Trynna single me out, won’t have it no way, I won’t have it no way 2 —Eyes coming outta my head When i wake up early morning jumping out of my bed Every hater that I’m makin, I’ll go at em again I ain’t talking bout spraying like a lavender scent But I’m sayin, leave a dog alone, no I’m not joking Cuz you never gunna know when his jaws gunna open And bite back, like a tsunami that’s from the ocean ( trippin in you head , like you’ve taken something that’s potent Living in a town, where everything here is closing Nuts so big it look I’m going bowling Ended up, how I ended up, wasn’t chosen Say I’m fucked up, while their puttin coke in their noses Livin wit my parents, so lucky that I gottem -You can make fun, I was sittin the bottom Failing as rapper really cause a lot of problems No I never got a plaque, but I drank a lot of bottles Ch Go ahead punk try to make my day, —Try to make my day Go Do another bump, of that god damn yay, of that god damn yay Start blabbing from the mouth, bout back in those days Bout back in those days Trynna single me out, won’t have it no way , I won’t have it no way

@therealjofo 2020. Pain lyrics 1 Listen up I’m angry At the world at the block ain’t a person or a thing that can change me Gone crazy, what can I say I guess it’s just the way the the bay had to raise me People hate me don’t care what they think Really in the slum no cash in the bank Forget about things with bats full of dank Might go nuts so I have to restrain Myself, thinking bout the past and the shame I ain’t ever made no cash in the game I ran out of gas in the lane Put gas to the flame when I flip my shit Speaking my mind, just like this Get a grip , never been a punk or a bitch When I spit, everybody thinking ohhh shit Ch Pain I stay in my own lane, cuz I don’t wanna be where they slanging the cocaine See death at close range, made a lot of problems in my brain Livin in pain Everyday’s strange living under stress and sustain But we still make it through the gutter and the rain Tell me is it ever gunna change, what were living it 2 Looking in the paper, reading all the trouble I’m seeing all the pain and I’m feeling all the struggle People live stressed, trapped inside a bubble It kinda feels like a cookie that’s gonna crumble Like really though, life can be scary so Everyday heavily partaking in the beer and dro So what, you know what, I got my throat cut Even though I’m showing respect I’m giving no fucks I roll up, try to take the pain away Need a little sunshine, just to take the rain away Small town living, I really came from a crazy place Fade away, people be dying everyday today But it’s my favourite place Daily, always be reppin it so majorly Ch Pain I stay in my own lane, cuz I don’t wanna be where they slanging the cocaine See death at close range, made a lot of problems in my brain Livin in pain Everyday’s strange living under stress and sustain But we still make it through the gutter and the rain Tell me is it ever gunna change, what were living it
