[Intro: WordPlay T. Jay]
Everything happens for a reason, right?
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I done waited this long
I don’t pay them no mind
As long as I got it, I’m a pay them on time
Never worry about them, because I’m doing just fine
Get it all because of my grind in due time
Yeah
Get mines, get mines
Huh
Get mines in due time
Yeah
Get mines, get mines
Yeah
Get mines in due time
[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
I don’t let the negative come get to me
The way I plan it out comes together like a symphony (Yeah)
God sent for me, I’m on the way to get it
Hear the vision, it was written coming harder than division
With precision I deliver, let the outcome speak
So, when it happens to me captain never doubt my reach (Don’t doubt it)
I’ve been about my keep; I’m earning everything that’s mine
When they ask me about the riches, I say everything in time (I’m a get it)
Because you can’t rush faith, and I done set my pace
Run forever in my lane and never check my race
I believe my ambition ain’t no just in case
If you believe in limits, then that’s just your place (That’s too bad for you bro)
So I, check the watch and know it’s right around the corner
Somebody better warn them that I’m closing in on them, huh
It’s simple and I know I got the victory (Uh, huh)
So in a second I’ll get everything that’s meant for me, yeah
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I done waited this long
I don’t pay them no mind
As long as I got it, I’m a pay them on time
Never worry about them, because I’m doing just fine
Get it all because of my grind in due time
Yeah
Get mines, get mines
Huh
Get mines in due time
Yeah
Get mines, get mines
Yeah
Get mines in due time
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Here we go
I really get the feeling they ain’t noticed yet (They ain’t notice)
I’m on a different time and they ain’t on to this (They ain’t on it)
I’m headed for the pay off like a bonus check (Bonus)
They give up way before and we just never rest (Nah)
Take a step and then we earn our keep (I got it)
If they ain’t with I’m a get my sleep (I’m snoozing)
Stay focused on it, I’m a keep my peace
Working overtime until I grow my reach (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I seen it headed for me a long time ago (I seen it)
Everything was lining up just like in dominoes (They falling)
Every sign of growth a message it was time to go
So I never had the room for the I don’t knows
And all the idle woes can never be distractions
Standing still for me can never be the action
Can’t let go my passion, I’ve never been that passive
Because one day I’ll be up in front the masses
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I done waited this long
I don’t pay them no mind
As long as I got it, I’m a pay them on time
Never worry about them, because I’m doing just fine
Get it all because of my grind in due time
Yeah
Get mines, get mines
Huh
Get mines in due time
Yeah
Get mines, get mines
Yeah
Get mines in due time

[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
Yeah
I’m a put in work until I’m dead nigga (Dead)
We can kick it but I’m never in the red with you (Nah)
Too into making profit never scared business (Uh, huh)
I’m always cooking up that’s a rare feeling (Uh)
Uh, looking at stepping it up like a FitBit (Uh)
Gotta be messing it up like a misfit (Huh)
Wallet getting thicker than some Bisquik
They trying but they not like Chris Paul can’t assist this (Uh, huh)
And when they try and file a couple claims that they helped me in the game
Get State Farm on the phone
And when I think about it, ain’t no doubting, I’m just solo on the mountain
Ain’t nobody here to show (Yeah)
Stay too great not pull my own weight, so they gotta keep the pace
God didn’t put me here to tow (Uh)
They wanna pass time on the beach, thinking everything’s sweet
But I’m never going to coast (Yeah)
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
It’s lonely at the top
I’m a keep my mind focused so I’m never at the bottom
It’s lonely at the top
Keep my circle looking right so there’s never any problems
It’s lonely at the top
They can say the want it all, but won’t sacrifice a little bit
It’s lonely at the top
And when you carve your own lane ain’t no ceiling that you ever hit
[Bridge: WordPlay T. Jay]
I see another mountain got a ways to go
Ways to go
I see another mountain got a ways to go
Ways to go
Started from the bottom and it’s days ago
Days ago
And what I got to do to get it they don’t know
They don’t know
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Graduated and I’m barely getting started don’t get mad if I’m departing
Because I’m cruising to another space
Levitated cause I stopped and meditated, saw some shit was overrated
And I’m happy that I’m getting great
Never chill, never down on the field, what I want I can’t conceal
Because I’m about to get a goal with it
And if you think I’m bold better know that my temperature the most
And a nigga really cold with it
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
It’s lonely at the top
I’m a keep my mind focused so I’m never at the bottom
It’s lonely at the top
Keep my circle looking right so there’s never any problems
It’s lonely at the top
They can say the want it all, but won’t sacrifice a little bit
It’s lonely at the top
And when you carve your own lane ain’t no ceiling that you ever hit
[Verse 3: WordPlay T. Jay]
They think I’m running out, but I maintain
And I’m never running out for the fame game
See my ambition and these chickens want to change names
But I ain’t picking got a vixen with some bling bling
Picking a road untraveled with a saddle
Ready to blow like a mountain in Seattle
Making hits and I don’t battle cause I rather trunks rattle
Ain’t no cell in my future, not an enemy that matters
Pick a lane ain’t nobody got to know
Entertain like you got your own show
Feel the rain that’s the only way to grow
Don’t listen to them got to take your own approach
This the illest shit I wrote since the last verse
Think I need some therapy that’s some mad work
If Drizzy still going bad I’m a tad worse
Get it in by any means and never ask first
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
It’s lonely at the top
I’m a keep my mind focused so I’m never at the bottom
It’s lonely at the top
Keep my circle looking right so there’s never any problems
It’s lonely at the top
They can say the want it all, but won’t sacrifice a little bit
It’s lonely at the top
And when you carve your own lane ain’t no ceiling that you ever hit

Long Week

[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
Yo,
Written up for being late another day
Check still slim so I’m looking for another way
Put on weight? No that’s no debate
I put in work right after work no need to motivate
Real entrepreneur so you know the fake
I heard a lot of problems, so you know the stakes
And when you want it like I want it, you say no to breaks
A couple chips up on my shoulder so you know the pace
I run it, run it, run it, run it, make a kilo from one hundred
If you start it then I’ve done it, turning nothing into something
Off to learn another subject, take it to the public
Then they tell me how they love it, how them other folks should cut it
[Refrain: WordPlay T. Jay]
When I get the chance, I’m just clocking in another
Do it for my mother, wifey, sister, and my brother
See me with the drive, never touching on the putters
Then repeat that shit tomorrow like a st-st-st-st-studder
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Damn it’s been a long week
How else am I gone eat?
I guess this meal is on me
Watch me when I get it nigga
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Thinking about promoting myself
Guess it’s just my nature, I’m devoted to wealth
Crime has never been an option but I’m loving the sales
Take my losses as a lesson cause I love when I fail
You tale but I’m doing it in real life
On the hustle, I don’t move unless it feels right
Gas it up with Nos if you want that mass appeal right
Been drawing since a youngin’ so my trigger finger feels light
Huh, and that’s an ordinary day
And my paw paw told me get it extra ordinary ways
And they echoing the losses so ignore them when they cave
Think they metamorphosize but they boring every stage
[Refrain: WordPlay T. Jay]
When I get the chance, I’m just clocking in another
Do it for my mother, wifey, sister, and my brother
See me with the drive, never touching on the putters
Then repeat that shit tomorrow like a st-st-st-st-studder
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Damn it’s been a long week
How else am I gone eat?
I guess this meal is on me
Watch me when I get it nigga
[Verse 3: WordPlay T. Jay]
Building it and building it and building
Feeling like a Clinton with them invoices I’m building
Made my own way, I’m a mentor for the children
Tell them nobody can stop you when you’re working for the feeling
Not a dollar sign, make me draw the lines, like she draw the blinds
When she love a brother and them panties on the side
Guess I’m working for the passion
Like Jesus at the start, it was never about the masses
Put that gift to work so you can skip a couple classes
Switch to who you are and talk that shit just like you Cassius
Don’t matter about the riches cause the freedom makes you lavish
The person with the truth, is the one who really has it
[Refrain: WordPlay T. Jay]
When I get the chance, I’m just clocking in another
Do it for my mother, wifey, sister, and my brother
See me with the drive, never touching on the putters
Then repeat that shit tomorrow like a st-st-st-st-studder
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Damn it’s been a long week
How else am I gone eat?
I guess this meal is on me
Watch me when I get it nigga

[Intro: WordPlay T. Jay]
One time, one time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
Two time, two time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
Three time, three time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
Four time, four time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
[Verse 1: Bee-West]
Look, when I’m lookin’ back to beginnings from where we at
I be feelin’ that the love from my people be fallin’ flat
I react like I’m talkin’ on deaf ears, respect peers
Even though support coming my way it’s like a next year,
Kind of thang, most imaginary and strange
The people, I listen to ‘em they sayin’ they want a change
But it’s like I’m out of focus not hearin’ me in they range
Everything they claim they want and I swear I got it arranged
But it’s like I’m pullin’ teeth and I swear I just wanna sang
Knowin’ anything truly worth it come with some pain
Moments I would sit back and wonder when will it change
Thinkin’ all the necessary components are in my brain
So while I’m feelin’ on the floor for a key in a dark room
I hope you make room for any big dream in a park soon
Let’s build, consolidate,
Tomorrow, let’s start today
And never lettin’ the present get away, uh
[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Never hold to the pain, even if the situation don’t change
You can let it go
Once in a while it’s gone rain, but I’m standing with umbrella in the range
We can let it go
You ain’t gotta be brave, cause tomorrow we gone turn another page
We can let it go
Not alone on stage, take a hand, we gon’ make it through the day
We can let it go
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
One time, one time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
Two time, two time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
Three time, three time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
Four time, four time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Look bro, every day it might look broke
But it’s lessons all around if you look close
But if you sit and think about it, maybe look slow
It’s right around the corner if you’re looking for a new hope
Matter fact, I’ve been hanging with some new folks
They want to see us win like a score when it’s too low
Bro you way too good to kiss a culo
They might of tried to cut you down but here’s some new growth
Might of tried to sink your ship but here’s a new boat
And I’m paddling cause you don’t need to let go
I’m your brother, I don’t wanna see you just float
I want to see you ‘kay cause I’m your best bloak
Brand new topic, brand new logic
Did I forget to mention you a brand new papa
Got your life together and your wife be popping
Forget about the bull jump, man you got it, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Never hold to the pain, even if the situation don’t change
You can let it go
Once in a while it’s gone rain, but I’m standing with umbrella in the range
We can let it go
You ain’t gotta be brave, cause tomorrow we gone turn another page
We can let it go
Not alone on stage, take a hand, we gon’ make it through the day
We can let it go
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
One time, one time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
Two time, two time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
Three time, three time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
Four time, four time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
We can let it go
[Bridge: WordPlay T. Jay]
One time, one time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
Let it go when it’s something on your mind
Two time, two time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
Let it go when it’s something on your mind
Three time, three time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
Let it go when it’s something on your mind
Four time, four time we can let it go (Uh, uh)
Let it go when it’s something on your mind
[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Never hold to the pain, even if the situation don’t change
You can let it go
Once in a while it’s gone rain, but I’m standing with umbrella in the range

Obsessed
02:57
|

[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
I wonder all the time will you know me well
Spread my life up on these sheets so I can excel
Retweets, hearts, likes, and everything
I count it all, just capture the better means
Has this obsession taken over me?
Will I mail off all my values just to notice peace?
How many years will it be until I get over grief?
Cause all my happiness is tied to popularity
And this ain’t fair to me, I want to chase my passion
And pass all the has-beens and make my worries past tense
If I can’t let it go then I’ll never get it
Optimism, take a thought and shift my metaphysics
Gotta take my mental off of meta-critics
Cause they observe what I do but they can never get it
I see it firsthand on the daily
That’s why they can’t phase me and drive a nigga crazy
Yeah
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I do this over, over, over, over ‘gin
And it never ends (Never)
It never ends (Never)
I do this over, over, over, over ‘gin
And it never ends (Never)
It never ends (Never)
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Will I be good enough to love forever?
I’m down to die for you, but is it temporary
We did some freaky things up in the bedroom
And I can ask you to stay but I can’t beg you
Now I’m on your social like a stalker
Just lost you and you change the way you’re walking
Outfit new and bar hopping
I might be alone for life, my heart stopping
Do you say the same things that you said to me
Or do you ring a different bell and change the melody
Can you walk around the house and find the smell of me?
Oh that’s right, can’t nobody match my pedigree
I’m just trippin’ I’ve been thinking too much
To find myself in you, I just think it’s a crutch
To measure up to them, put myself in a rush
Obsessing over love, I’m just too out of touch, tough
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I do this over, over, over, over ‘gin
And it never ends (Never)
It never ends (Never)
I do this over, over, over, over ‘gin
And it never ends (Never)
It never ends (Never)

Protest (Interlude)

[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
Yo, Sitting all alone in the office
They just keep on thinking that I lost it
Where the bosses? And I’m cautious
Cause this job’s gonna put me in a coffin
I can do what I want when I’m ballin’, Jordan
Bout to quit soon to be honest
Could really give a damn about a bonus
My breakthrough is right around corner, warn ‘em
I ain’t taking this shit no mo’ and I’m way too prone to just give it up
Overtime this week, overtime next week
Is you ever gon’ get enough?
Am I ever gon’ get to love, what I do for a living
Cause every time I get home, and I write another song, overdue independence
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
We don’t want yo’, we don’t want yo’
We don’t want yo’, we don’t want yo’
We don’t want yo’, we don’t want yo’
We don’t want yo’ mutha-fuckin’ check, Yeah
We don’t want yo’, we don’t want yo’
We don’t want yo’, we don’t want yo’
We don’t want yo’, we don’t want yo’
We don’t want yo’ mutha-fuckin’ check, Yeah
We don’t want yo’, we don’t want yo’
We don’t want yo’, we don’t want yo’
We don’t want yo’, we don’t want yo’
We don’t want yo’ mutha-fuckin’ check, Yeah

Hands to the Ceiling

[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
Why don’t you leave me out yo’ bullshit?
I just wanna feel tonight so I can let it go
Throw it like confetti though,
Kicking these words is like a pedi flow
I don’t want drugs, I’m already dope
Higher than before and that’s a steady slope
Gettin’ to the drip is like a Neti though
Looking like a star, don’t do no cameos
Insert line about some panties though and zany dose
That’s where my advantage grows
Cause I came to get loose like mechanic clothes
Throw a good fit like I’m two years old
We ain’t get it live in a minute
But I thrive on the vibe when I ride with the winners
They dividin’ the business
corners swing wide when I bend it
hands put ‘em high to the ceiling
[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
We just wanna let it go and get them hands up
Turn the music little louder let the band bust
Tell ‘em all to have a seat, cause they can’t stand us
Getting hot up in this building turn the fan up, yup
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Wax on, wax off
girl you know your back soft
Might just make a kid and get the tax off
And make up for the past lost
Tryna get between like a fast floss
In it like, uh, my bad Ross
Didn’t really know that I had sauce
At the bottom of the bag where the rags are
Tags off, point of no return so let the cash talk
Cat walk, bad boss,
Gotta eat like the fast off
See ‘em in the future with the mask off
Getting right back where the gang hang
Like a melee finna go nuts like a Payday
Bring the dance out like Da Baby
Let the body jump up while the hands go crazy
[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
We just wanna let it go and get them hands up
Turn the music little louder let the band bust
Tell ‘em all to have a seat, cause they can’t stand us
Getting hot up in this building turn the fan up, yup
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
[Verse 3: WordPlay T. Jay]
Aiight
Wave, wave, wave, wave
Tonight is getting crazy
So only God can save me
Oh, this feels amazing,
Take me up
Ride the tempo, like a nympho
The vibe is simple, monumental
Gotta get it in never mind the intro
So pick your hands up like you’re drivin’ limos
[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
We just wanna let it go and get them hands up
Turn the music little louder let the band bust
Tell ‘em all to have a seat, cause they can’t stand us
Getting hot up in this building turn the fan up, yup
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up
Hands to the ceiling get them hands up

[Pre-Chorus: Proffit]
Heard this little jingle down in Arkansas
And I know
You don’t love me
But let me tell you like this
Hmm
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Yeah, we ain’t checking on what’s up
Watchin’ all the gossip and I think I seen enough
Ignoring all these prophets when they don’t believe in us
They steady talkin’, talkin’ yet it’s nothing we can trust
You thought it was a bluff but I don’t really give a fuck
Tunnel vision no negative is on my mind (Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Hang it up if negative don’t call my line (Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Tunnel vision no negative is on my mind (Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Clockin’ out no negative is on my time (Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
I don’t care if you don’t like what I do
I’m in love with myself
So ain’t nobody else
Could ever try and walk in my shoes
I’m a better myself, I’m moving like Phelps
So how in the hell could I lose?
Never done it like me, I’m so unique
So why would I ever seek approval?
Never see me posting up illusions
Looking in the mirror when I’m cruisin’
Falling in line is just amusin’
Being myself is what I’m choosin’
If you wanna see how high I go
Then I gotta sweep through all my lows
Never really need new cars, new clothes
Watch it when I leaf through all my growth, aiight
[Refrain: WordPlay T. Jay]
Opinions don’t matter to me
I rather just batter the beat
I notice the pattern and take it to Saturn and gather
I rather just come with the rings (Huh)
I wonder what’s sadder?
Telling yourself you’re not fit for the dream?
Or doing the most for everyone’s goals and not doing your thing? (Huh)
Death to the chatter I never get hip to the life (Yeah)
Stuck in my mental I never get mixed in the hype (Uh)
Seeing the journey my eyes are just hooked on the prize
Dumping the shit, then hop in the whip
No wonder I’m feeling alive, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Proffit]
And I know
You don’t love me
But let me tell you like this
Hmm
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Yeah, we ain’t checking on what’s up

Hang it up if negative don’t call my line (Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Tunnel vision no negative is on my mind (Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Clockin’ out no negative is on my time (Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
[Bridge: WordPlay T. Jay]
Setting my intentions
Simply with a mention
Stuck to my convictions
Never seen a prison
I can stay consistent
Look at my ambition (what?)
I can think up how high I go
Mind right or it’s vamanos
If you with the shits then it’s time to go
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Lemme shift to fifth and I’m down road
Never fit to slip with you down the slope
I’m royalty and not down below
Always made a way and not down to hope
Excuses never down for those huh
I’m a push through (Push)
Keep cutting checks for my intellect
It’s minds I’m meant to improve, aiight
[Refrain: WordPlay T. Jay]
Opinions don’t matter to me
I rather just batter the beat
I notice the pattern and take it to Saturn and gather
I rather just come with the rings (Huh)

A Way

[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
This is how the whole thing goes
Getting rid of all my lows
Ain’t no point in holding on
I’m feeling this way all day long
I feel a way
[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
I feel it’s you and it’s never me
So I just wanna cruise to these melodies
Contemplating home when I’m in the streets
And I will never fall for the industry
The fear can make me angry and dismissive
Don’t care to open up cause I’m a little apprehensive
Never number two always led with my mechanics
That’s why everybody’s draw looks so fuckin’ underhanded
Uh, and I can never understand it
Hoping for the best that’s just me being romantic
Looking at these bills kinda puts me in a panic
I was beggin’ to grow up and now my wish is finally granted, and I
[Refrain: WordPlay T. Jay]
I need to calm down babe
And watch the smoke I blaze
And count the good ol’ days
Let the stress all fade
And I can stay up late
So I can watch my fave
Until my soul feels great, it’s like
[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
This is how the whole thing goes
Getting rid of all my lows
Ain’t no point in holding on
I’m feeling this way all day long
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I feel a way
I feel a way
I feel a way
I feel a way
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Why everybody knock my spirit off
And everybody’s doubts just make fear it all
I’m in my feelings like a Shiggy dance
Slow to pass go, but there’s still a chance
A rapper and I’m shy that’s coincidence
But I can magnify all my differences
My weakness is my strength cause I reveal it
Like I’ve always been ashamed of my appearance
Now I’m steerin’ kinda veerin’
May not be the job they hopped but I’m still in engineering
Insecurities they just callin’ interference
Made my very own path, and I call it inner clearance
[Refrain: WordPlay T. Jay]
So I just calm down babe
And watch the smoke I blaze
And count the good ol’ days
Let the stress all fade
And I can stay up late
So I can watch my fave
Until my soul feels great, it’s like
[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
This is how the whole thing goes
Getting rid of all my lows
Ain’t no point in holding on
I’m feeling this way all day long
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I feel a way
I feel a way
I feel a way
I feel a way
[Bridge: WordPlay T. Jay]
The feeling I they still arise
Stay on my mind ain’t no surprise
I let it go
I never whine on my decline
I just remind the win is mine
So let ‘em know
[Pre-Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
This is how the whole thing goes
Getting rid of all my lows
Ain’t no point in holding on
I’m feeling this way all day long
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I feel a way
I feel a way
I feel a way
I feel a way

Drive

[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I got the drive to float away
And there ain’t no high that I replace
You in my mind for better days
Wanna get lost ‘til I’m amazed
[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
Been on the road two hundred days
And now that I’m back, let’s pack, and run away
Where to go? San Trope?
Really you know me well, that’s so cliché
And the check ain’t hit deposit yet
So climb up in the car so we can see how high the mileage gets
Travel down the I-5 highway
Blasting out the Usher, and she see me do it my way
There the beach go, hope the heat hold
That’s all for the grind and the seats sold
And I make these rhymes for the people
Motivate, motivate, motivate, yeah
That’s just how my week goes
Let’s wind down and eat slow
Sip champagne and reload
On the drive I find my way
Taking it day by day (Cause)
And for you forever chase (I)
We just stack and go some place
Take stress off my cabeza I don’t wanna wait
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I got the drive to float away
And there ain’t no high that I replace
You in my mind for better days
Wanna get lost ‘til I’m amazed
Follow my road, to go, and stay
Follow my road, to foreign places
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Beep, beep, beep, beep
That’s just how the traffic goes
I fell for you and it knocked me out like dominoes
Singing out you are not alone (You are not alone)
Build me up and I’ll take you home
Stacking my cake so hand you some, make you the one
Got the hustle in my spirit to the soles up in my feet
Must of let me off my leash, on a trip to bring you peace
A peace of mind, a piece of me
We can get up vis-à-vis
Take a visa to Ibiza and we sail up on the sea
Let you know just where I’m headed and I’ll take you there with me
Asking what’s your fantasy, watch you pose in Vanity
In them pictures you look good, but in person you look better
I can’t wait to change the weather, take the wine up out the cellar like
Toast to all of my love
You be driving me crazy, never knew who I was right
I can’t kill the buzz
Take the journey this way up, hummin’ there’s no better love
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I got the drive to float away
And there ain’t no high that I replace
You in my mind for better days
Wanna get lost ‘til I’m amazed
Follow my road, to go, and stay
Follow my road, to foreign places
[Bridge: WordPlay T. Jay]
We can go the streets will never know we’re lost
When you’re there I feel like going on and on
We can go the streets will never know we’re lost
And I can take you home
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I got the drive to float away (Float away, yeah)
And there ain’t no high that I replace (I replace yeah)
You in my mind for better days (Better days yeah)
Wanna get lost ‘til I’m amazed (I’m amazed)
Follow my road, to go, and stay
Follow my road, to foreign places

Can't See Myself

[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
Never can imagine
Me without you that’ll be so tragic
So why you even ask it?
All the little things that we gotta outlast
So why you in the past?
Bound to get stained when you’re rolling in the grass
I’m tryna keep clean cause I know you might dash
And a life all alone ain’t a life worth having
[Refrain: WordPlay T. Jay]
Do you wanna roll with me
Do you wanna roll with me (Hold on)
Even when you drive me crazy I never wanna be too sane
Happy that you rolled my way
Happy that you rolled my way (Oh Lord)
I wanna tell you all the things I felt
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Cause I can’t see myself
I can’t see myself, alone
Can’t see myself
No I can’t see myself, alone
Alone, alone
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Who am I kiddin’?
When I picture you gone get this sick kind of feeling
Make me wanna throw every dish in the building
Cause I seen this life with a miss and the children
So ain’t nobody else for me
Loving every card that he dealt for me
Even when it’s hard never helps to leave
You ain’t gotta go far ‘til it’s hard to breath so
[Refrain: WordPlay T. Jay]
Do you wanna roll with me
Do you wanna roll with me (Hold on)
Even when you drive me crazy I never wanna be too sane
Happy that you rolled my way
Happy that you rolled my way (Oh Lord)
I wanna tell you all the things I felt
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Cause I can’t see myself
I can’t see myself, alone
Can’t see myself
No I can’t see myself, alone
Alone, alone
[Bridge: WordPlay T. Jay]
Do you wanna roll with me
Do you wanna roll with me (Oh Lord)
Hope you don’t say no
I don’t wanna lay alone
Do you wanna roll with me
Do you wanna roll with me (Oh Lord)
Without you it don’t leave much else
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Cause I can’t see myself
I can’t see myself, alone
Can’t see myself
No I can’t see myself, alone
Alone, alone
I can’t see myself
I can’t see myself, alone
Can’t see myself
No I can’t see myself, alone
Alone, alone

[Intro: WordPlay T. Jay]
Hmm-hm-hm, hm-hm-hm-hm, hm
Hm-hm, Hmmm
They just gon’ have to wait for this intro
This one’s for us
[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
I was gonna write a letter to you
That says every day that goes by I wanna get better to you
All the time I’m just ready to prove
That I can take a chance I got nothin’ to lose
How did I ever find you?
Leave your phone, come along, find a song we can ride to
Anything we can rise through
It don’t matter if the clouds hang low or the sky’s blue
So meet me on a mission
When the dinner bell rings you can meet me in the kitchen
We can work together we can see through the vision
And if you set the table then I can do the dishes
Shit, we can never do division
Thought I had it all, ‘til I found what was missin’
Not in high school, but I’m down for the physics
And know that this forever for the Mr. and the Mrs.
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Finally
I got you
And you got me
And that’s the way it’s supposed to be
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
We been waiting all this time for a wedding day
Tell the family we love that we set a date
Knew it from the start, so I never went to hesitate
Make me levitate, I ain’t met a better candidate
To run for my heart, we can set a pace
From anywhere we are we can elevate
Gon’ be bumps in the road, never take a break
I just want you by my side so I make a space
So here we go to the close
Whatever cards dealt never go for the fold
And if you need a hand I got one you can hold
Couple goals like ‘Yonce and Hov
Ready for the highs and I’m down for the lows
Like a hardware store and it’s down to the rope
Nobody could be better for me
Mr. and the Mrs. I’m just ready to be
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Finally
I got you
And you got me
And that’s the way it’s supposed to be
[Outro: WordPlay T. Jay]
I know that there’s time we won’t see eye to eye and um
I know that I’m okay with that
I’ve also know for a very long time that I was waiting for you to come around
So we can grow together, laugh together, and build something incredible
What I didn’t know is what we have now would exceed all of those expectations
So one day, when our kids hear this
They’ll know that we loved each other to death
And the day we got married I said to myself…
Finally
I got you
And you got me
And that’s the way it’s supposed to be

Over, Over

[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
Think I been thinking too long
Hold on, come on
Damn, gotta start again
Must me in a funk like a parliament
Huh, gotta write that part again
Thinking over, over and I can’t let it go get it off my mind
Can’t go to sleep for a wink this week gotta get back time
Am I past my prime? Gotta be an optimist
They can never know what it cost to get
Let me get across the pit
Reaching for the hope and all I seem to grasp is pain
But it can’t last too long gotta move it past this rain
Stuck in a loop and I can’t get thoughts up out my brain
Wanna wash it off but I can’t get out my change
Want better days but they seem to be all the same
I see the light but it’s way beyond my aim
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Been over all these hurdles and I’m over lows
Been over, overthinking wanna let it go
It seems like every day is an overload
Just checking for the stage when I see the growth
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Thinkin’ bout the brighter side maybe I can itemize
Be taken by surprise all the good that I surmise
Stay down to ride, we can multiply what they can’t divide
Keep it on the prize, can’t tie us down with no nine to five
Look me eye to eye and you see the thoughts that I’m feeling
Mesmerized by millions, going round and round with these villains
Inside is appealin’ like I’m losing court decisions
Breathe I need a revision, always deep in my business so
I ain’t never losing my grip, no matter the model I whip
I steer the wheel on my ship, yeah
Got faith so follow my gut, never operated on luck
Simple as God I Trust, yeah
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Been over all these hurdles and I’m over lows
Been over, overthinking wanna let it go
It seems like every day is an overload
Just checking for the stage when I see the growth
[Verse 3: WordPlay T. Jay]
Keeping my mental right, so precise
I focus on what I’m holding right
Near to my heart cause I’m shown the light like
A movie scene on those screens
Sit on ultralight beams
So they know the truth when I’m seen, yeah
I aint’ gotta sit and just think a lot
About to land cause I seen the plot
Diagnose the course cause I seen the doc
Setting sail coming off the rock, I’m a just breathe
Cause I know my soul sees every goal and all I missed in between
No to force, no remorse
Rolling with it like motorsports
Forever in it like no divorce
Born this way so it’s no deport
Unorthodox like I’m on to pork
Mind strong so I hold the fort
Jabbing with it like holding forks
Til I knock it out and it’s on the floor, yeah
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Been over all these hurdles and I’m over lows
Been over, overthinking wanna let it go
It seems like every day is an overload
Just checking for the stage when I see the growth

Wind

[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I’m in the wind I’m sittin’ high
Never think about the days of getting low
I just think about the ways heal my mind
Never sit and contemplate ‘bout feelin’ lonely
I’m in the wind I’m sitting high
Never think about the days of getting low
And in end I’m feeling high
Reminisce about the days with you alone always
[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
Yeah, I see the runway and it’s clear now
We here now so it’s nothing we can fear about (Always)
A path we can travel ain’t an obstacle to steer around
Don’t feel down, there’s a lot for us to cheer about (Always)
So pick a smile for today
We came along way so a mile, piece of cake
Like we at the alter ain’t a vow we can break
God is looking at us, we endowed with the grace
See the necessary hurdles as a blessing not a curse
Just relax into the moment, there’s a lesson in the worst
Like it shipped from Amazon, I’m addressin’ all the perks
And if you got some wounds I can dress it when it hurts
I put in work, cause that’s all I got to give
Try to live in bliss like we did when we was kids
I know you got my back so it ain’t hard for me to live
Taking all the problems and we toss ‘em in the bin I’m in the wind
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I’m in the wind I’m sittin’ high
Never think about the days of getting low
I just think about the ways heal my mind
Never sit and contemplate ‘bout feelin’ lonely
I’m in the wind I’m sitting high
Never think about the days of getting low
And in end I’m feeling high
Reminisce about the days with you alone always
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
Man, I feel I’m finally who I’m supposed to be
And openly, I’m expressing what I know to be (Always)
True, and that’s the freedom that I’m feelin’
You can let it all out there’s no reason to conceal it (Always)
And I’m always revealin’ – hidden feelings
And the weight up off my shoulder got me lighter than a prism
Every day I see go by got me further from the stress
I protest, like it’s Wednesday afternoon it’s just a test
Check, and let the wind take the pain away
It never stays new tomorrow ain’t the same today
Hey, don’t let the drama press repeat
Like you watchin’ episodes of Black Mirror on the screen
Sing, until you reach a higher frequency
And shake it off so you’re never who you used to be
Don’t pretend to deflect and hold it in
Take the junk you keep inside and just toss it in the bin
I’m in the wind
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I’m in the wind I’m sittin’ high
Never think about the days of getting low
I just think about the ways heal my mind
Never sit and contemplate ‘bout feelin’ lonely
I’m in the wind I’m sitting high
Never think about the days of getting low
And in end I’m feeling high
Reminisce about the days with you alone always
[Bridge: WordPlay T. Jay]
I come a mighty long way
Here to stay, maybe bend cause I’m never gon’ break (Always)
So if you need a shoulder I’m just never far away
I relate, so you never have to carry all the weight (Always)
Uh, I come a mighty long way
Here to stay, maybe bend cause I’m never gon’ break
So if you need a shoulder I’m just never far away
I relate, so you never have to carry all the weight, wait
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
I’m in the wind I’m sittin’ high
Never think about the days of getting low
I just think about the ways heal my mind
Never sit and contemplate ‘bout feelin’ lonely
I’m in the wind I’m sitting high
Never think about the days of getting low
And in end I’m feeling high
Reminisce about the days with you alone always

Day Dreaming

[Verse 1: WordPlay T. Jay]
Yo, zoning out like voting routes
All I know is I’m holding out
On my dreams for the whole amount
Taking all I got so I don’t shout
Let me go cause I can’t control
All these lyrics I wanna note
On the rise like graph slopes
Putting plus one on my passport
On my back like a Jansport
Been On The Map and I run for it
Growing tall like run Forrest
Come and see what I done for it
Pay me up cause I’m done chorin’
Holding notes like the whole chorus
Too strong like Chuck Norris
Slide for me cause I’m on the board
Turn the fans on making noise
No fast food, not taking orders
Over the line I’m crossing borders
Tossing trash like checking hoarders
Get the message and I say it all the same never change
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams, yeah
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Stocking shelves and I’m getting to green but it seems
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
Driving miles putting distance on the screen and it seems
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
At the office, got a meeting with the team yet it seems
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
On the call and at times I wanna screen and it means
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
[Verse 2: WordPlay T. Jay]
They can say what I gotta do
They can think what I gotta prove
But it don’t determine my latitude
Cause I gain the most from my gratitude
Doubtin’ me I’m not mad at you
You only know what you been through
But I bounce back like a senzu
Gotta cut the shit like a ginsu
Making marks with my pencil, is all I wanna express
For all the people that resonate, is all I wanna impress
This time I wanna invest
Not on the job for weeks, I’m unique
So don’t see it as a marvel when I peak
Making stories like it’s Marvel, in the sheets like the ink
Like Lil Wayne in two-thousands how I’m making all the feats
Like it’s cash in the deposit I’m a take it to the Brink
Every day that I spend dreaming I get closer to relief
It’s the peace
[Chorus: WordPlay T. Jay]
Stocking shelves and I’m getting to green but it seems
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
Driving miles putting distance on the screen and it seems
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
At the office, got a meeting with the team yet it seems
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
On the call and at times I wanna screen and it means
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
Stocking shelves and I’m getting to green but it seems
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
Driving miles putting distance on the screen and it seems
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
At the office, got a meeting with the team yet it seems
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
On the call and at times I wanna screen and it means
It don’t work unless I’m getting to my dreams
