Let Go

[Verse 1: JL]
There have been many times, I thought about putting this mic down
And walking away from all of this and never looking back
Never making another track, get on some
Whole ’nother-other shit, try imagining that…
Always been the type of nigga to adapt
So what if I let it go, like fuck it, yo, it’s a wrap
Can’t get with all my energy anymore, this is wack
Did everything that I could, but I couldn’t get it to crack
Then I get to think about everything that I could’ve done
Differently, feel like yet an epiphany
Bro, you gotta be shitting me, I’ve wasted so much
What makes it so rough? I’m making no bust
Be patient, don’t rush, it’s making no sense
Got me so tense, my pocket’s all lint
My mind is so spent, find it appropriate to re-think
Regroup, read some, re-write, reboot
Then I get to think about what I wanted to do
If I could be anything but a rapper to you
Pack up, never get back in the booth
Find another path to pursue
Would I end up in a straight jacket up in a padded room?
Be up in the streets, acting a fool, packing a tool
Stabbing a few hoes, have ’em loving the crew…
Or what if I would’ve just went to school
Got a degree, never started smoking this weed
And writing melodies, succeed
Another way? What if I did it today?
Delete my FaceBook page and switch states
No mixtapes, no Twitter, just erase
Whatever I did place, consider the mistakes
I make, make new slates, a new page
Get married, have babies
New career, get rid of all of the maybe’s
Born in the 80’s, so hip hop raised me
But what if I went astray?
Followed another love like it was nothing to make
Something different instead of living up on the stage
Would you hate a nigga for wanting something to change?
Would you blame me?
Guess we’ll never know, ’cause I’m staying
Look what you made me, I’m not complaining
’cause the love that I’m getting is really amazing
So amazing, so amazing…

[Chorus]
Wouldn't trade it for the world
W-wouldn't trade it for the world (x4)
Never let go (x16)

[Verse 2: JL]
Yo
Am I living a fairytale?
’Cause I’m beginning to get to know victory very well
I won’t let ’em get me, I’mma quickly parasail
I’m up in the air, none of y'all here
Got me thinking none of it spare
Not in front of me, you’re gonna be scared
You wanna be, but under me, and unaware
That I really be ripping it, they label without a care
You can sit and watch me, get up, pull up a chair
Everybody knowing I get in the zone
Cold, when I spit it, I’m on flow
Buy them all a bong, residue strong
Do the beat like an edible thong
I’m very credible, impeccable, the way I put on
And I’m a son of hip hop, I can never do wrong
And I’m where I belong, I believe and I’m ready, come on!
I’m goin' vertical, up, up, you stuck in a terminal
Tough luck, jock up the deuce and I turn into
A speck in the sky, you ain’t dealin' with a regular guy
Not on the regular high, no competitor is better than I
They get repetitive, when they say it a lot, thought you’re a hell of a lie
If you’re talking about otherwise
I know I really gotta make it when I look into my mother’s eyes
Living every moment like I’mma never be surprised
’cause any minute now, I know I’m gonna rise...

[Chorus]
