First Impression

[Intro]
I've been so off lately
Haven't been turned on in years
There's no one else to blame
Just gotta keep layerin' the tears
The ace that I once knew has been shredded to pieces
Lost the skills to impress with cards
Learned impression comes from the heart I need it

[Chorus]
What's your first impression of me?
Am I in need of love?
Are my messages enough to increase your passionate touch?
Tell me if I'm tough, or if I'm too rough
Let me know, what's your first impression?

[Verse 1]
I'm screamin' Always Strong now, 'cause I need it
My only purpose in life was to relay my thoughts
And y'all read it
My only option was to spit real hard
So y'all feel it
My only conclusion to the beats I drop, it's needed
I have a destiny, it might not be that clear
But y'all definitely gotta stick around
You might be inspired by what you hear
And for years to come, Jabez Z will be the name they fear
First impressions are important
'Cause that's the cover to the book y'all judge before you open
Please tell me

[Chorus]
What's your first impression of me?
Am I in need of love?
Are my messages enough to increase your passionate touch?
Tell me if I'm tough, or if I'm too rough
Let me know, what's your first impression?

[Verse 2]
When I first met Jabez Z, I was thirteen
And at that time my life seemed worthless
But at the time when my mind was blind
He inspired one guy, me
He change my life with his poetry
His mind was clouded, never noticed me
To busy bein' a different breed, he was the shit to me
Until one day, he stopped
Didn't touch a pen in weeks
Got to busy pickin' weeds
Forced to stay in God's reach
He was told to regret his past actions
All those times he was told he was bad at actin'
Every time his dad would ask what happened
Zack chocked, that's why his rhymes are captions
Of his real life, yet he's still tryin'
To remember what he's good for other then rhymes

[Chorus]
What's your first impression of me?
Am I in need of love?
Are my messages enough to increase your passionate touch?
Tell me if I'm tough, or if I'm too rough
Let me know, what's your first impression?
Yah

[Interlude]
God damn it, that Jabez Z guy
I been reactin' to him for, for a while now and
Just every fuckin' time, I get a headache
Bro, that, this dude crazy man
This dude crazy bruh

[Chorus]
What's your first impression of me?
Am I in need of love?
Are my messages enough to increase your passionate touch?
Tell me if I'm tough, or if I'm too rough
Let me know, what's your first impression?

[Outro: Jabez Z & Patrick Star]
Yeah, I'm always gonna be Jabez Z
Welcome to Always Strong
Love y'all
The inner machinations of my mind are an enigma
