How Many Times???

[Intro: Jai Musiq]
How many, how many, how many
How many, how many, how many times
Yeah

[Chorus: Jai Musiq]
How many times
Can I get knocked down and get right back up again
I stay down, and yet I'm still struggling
Late night, up again asking
How many times
Can I pass my tray until I roll up again
I moved forward, but now I feel stuck again
Won't give up again, no but
How many times
Can I get knocked down and get right back up again
I stay down, and yet I'm still struggling
Late night, up again asking
How many times
Can I pass my tray until I roll up again
I moved forward but now I feel stuck again
Won't give up again, no but

[Verse: Jai Musiq]
Lately I been going through a lot (I been going through it)
I guess ain't much changed
Trying not to go insane
But it's hard when you going thru the same ole thang
Just tryna make this rap thing pop (I been tryna make it)
I wanna be a household name
Really though I couldn't care less for the fame
I just do it for the art and the love of the game
Sometimes I be feeling like what's the use
I'm gifted, I know that I got the juice
But daily I sit back and look at these at the artists like "this is who y'all gon compare me to?"
Cause most of these rappers is terrible
I get higher than most, I go aerial
Everyday I thank God for what Mary do
Cause these thoughts in my head I can't bury em

[Bridge: Jai Musiq]
Telling myself lies
Just how many times
Does it take for my heart to break?
Telling myself lies
Just how many times
Does it take for my wall to break?
I don't know but

[Chorus: Jai Musiq]
How many times
Can I get knocked down and get right back up again
I stay down, and yet I'm still struggling
Late night, up again asking
How many times
Can I pass my tray until I roll up again
I moved forward, but now I feel stuck again
Won't give up again, no but
How many times
Can I get knocked down and get right back up again
I stay down, and yet I'm still struggling
Late night, up again asking
How many times
Can I pass my tray until I roll up again
I moved forward but now I feel stuck again
Won't give up again, no but

[Verse: Jai Musiq]
How many, how many, how many, how many, how many times
Can I be met with disappointment and play it off like I'm alright?
I do all I can just to try to keep all my emotions inside
I say that I'm fine, but mostly I lie because of my pride
I don't wanna be a burden
To the people that's counting on me to make it
Got a shot and they counting on me to take it
I keep grinding because I can't be complacent
I keep working cause I wanna be the greatest
But I forget that I'm already him
So whenever I fall or my back on the wall
The chances I'll stay there are very slim

[Bridge: Jai Musiq]
Telling myself lies
Just how many times
Does it take for my heart to break?
Telling myself lies
Just how many times
Does it take for my wall to break?

{Chorus: Jai Musiq]
How many times
Can I get knocked down and get right back up again
I stay down, and yet I'm still struggling
Late night, up again asking
How many times
Can I pass my tray until I roll up again
I moved forward, but now I feel stuck again
Won't give up again, no but
How many times
Can I get knocked down and get right back up again
I stay down, and yet I'm still struggling
Late night, up again asking
How many times
Can I pass my tray until I roll up again
I moved forward but now I feel stuck again
Won't give up again, no but
