​lift me up

[Intro: Jay Hollywood]
They been tellin' me to wait, I relent
Three tapes, one year, I need rest
Felt death, I was under duress
King David how I handle the stress
Had me rolled up and I never been faded
Barber sad but I knew I would make it
Heaven-bound, if it's hell, I evade it
Yeah

[Hook: Jay Hollywood]
I don't dwell on the times I was blessed (Blessed)
Now the time where I settle for less (Less)
You was dying to live, I was living to die
Baby, how could you ever forget? ('Get)
They was pushing me closer to edge (Edge)
I maneuver through all of the mess (Mess)
Didn't know I could move with finesse ('Nesse)
More results, but it came with regret

[Verse 1: Jay Hollywood]
Look, ripped the bandaid off, let the blood dry
Felt the cold winter meet the sunrise
And my baseline got it upright
Been in purgatory since my cousin died
I ain't running no more, they gon' chase me
And I gave them the blueprint, no JAY-Z
See, the sky is blue, and beyond it is black
All the stars in the sky never phase me
Had no doubt in my mind I could take heat
Felt a change when the media take heed
Broke through soil, they never could break me
Plant the seeds, let the roots overtake me
Rock hard, but my ego is Everest
But my art don't define me, it's separate
My humanity take all the benefits
I'm convinced in heaven for the hell of it

[Hook: Jay Hollywood]
I don't dwell on the times I was blessed (Blessed)
Now the time where I settle for less (Less)
You was dying to live, I was living to die
Baby, how could you ever forget? ('Get)
They was pushing me closer to edge (Edge)
I maneuver through all of the mess (Mess)
Didn't know I could move with finesse ('Nesse)
More results, but it came with regret

[Interlude: Dre Wave$]
Yeah
Wave$
And they wanna dwell on the "Bless us"
I'ma definitely say I- my story, man
I hope it helps

[Verse 2: Dre Wave$]
Yeah, yeah
Now you saw that like we didn't mesh
Cut me up, took a pound of my flesh
I was tossing and turning, my heart, it was burning
Thought you'd be the one to caress
Got some niggas ain't living the best
I been telling bro "Give it a rest"
I ain't selling no mid, only press'
Hella smoke, it be hitting my chest
Now I'm stacking up guala, the hand on my problems
Probably 'cause I was deaf before a dollar
I didn't worry, like, why even bother?
I grinded early because of my father
I was like ten, washing windows
With the kinfolk, spilling all the water
I had to win 'cause I been broke
Since a jit though, getting shit in order
I oughta celebrate wit' a toast
I been through everything with the bros
I'm sorry, I'm a king with the flows
Like, somebody better bring me a trophy
I go above and beyond
Man, they ain't on nothing we on
They geeking me just to respond
I secretly wanna be gone
Bitch
