letra de still alright - joyner lucas

[verse 1: joyner lucas]
tell me, what do you see when you look in my eyes? (yeah)
got a lot on my mind
hopin’ i never be goin’ out of my mind
been tryna mature without growin’ out of my prime
i thought i was ready, it really wasn’t my time
i know, i live in my head
i said i’d be rich and i did what i did
but i don’t do this sh-t for me, i do this sh-t for my kids
i teach ’em how to go and get it when they ready to leave
been tired of livin’ up in h-ll when i know heaven is free
and nothin’ really more important than protectin’ they peace
i wanna teach ’em how to grow up and be better than me
when i was chasin’ all the paper, with no second to breathe
and i tell myself to never give up and accept the defeat
and my premonitions already written indefinitely
but i never listen, i know my vision and never could see
and truthfully, i wasn’t even supposed to make it this far (ayy)
or take it this far
i know that god got me, i’m thankin’ him for it (yeah)
soon as i get it, then i’ll be payin’ him for it
you know you made it when all the haters support (haters support)
the haters support (yeah)
joyner been workin’ and i ain’t takin’ no shorts
when they tell me be humble, then i’ma take in too far
sh-t, i used to feel like will, now i’m feelin’ like, uh
made mistakes, can’t get it right, yeah
n-ggas can’t stand me, i’m livin’ like, ooh
tryna win the grammy like k!ller mike, uh
i’m a underdog like k!ller mike, yeah
took a lot of l’s tryna win the fight, ooh
got back up, i’m still alright, yeah
i’ll be alright, i’m still alright, yeah
and i don’t really care ’bout nothin’ except for keepin’ my legacy
hopin’ i’ll be livin’ long enough to see what the end’ll be
had to take a shot for every n-gga tryna get rid of me
i wish they could look inside my soul and see what they did to me
i got a fire inside me and it’s seepin’ within me
when i look inside the mirror, all i see is the little me
wishin’ i could break out, but i hope the evil don’t hinder me
if i overcome it, then i’ll be achievin’ the victory, yeah

[verse 2: logic]
what you really want? what it really is?
’cause i remember livin’ my life with a milly fears
over the years, i thought i had a million ideas
so i had to find peace and release nonsense
i do it for the art, not the content
all i really wanted was acceptance
now as a man, i can vent this, f-ck that, end this
do what you love in this life, don’t let hate in your life
no, don’t work for a job ’til you eighty, then look back like
“godd-mn, i really done gave ’em my life”
if i save just one life with this verse, then it’s worth it
if this is your future, you need to reverse it
ain’t n0body perfect
man, f-ck all that cake, it ain’t worth it
just take what you buried deep down and unearth that
i know that you heard it
the voice from within, not above, so do what you love
ain’t no way i could keep it up feelin’ this feelin’
it’s creepin’ up, tellin’ me i will not be enough
no, wasn’t bein’ me enough
i think i see enough of what i don’t want in my life
give a d-mn if it’s right, it’s the reason i write
need a reason to fight ’cause i need it in sight
with these monsters in sight, it get darker than what i would like
but i know i’m alright
[verse 3: twista]
ain’t no way that you could never know my struggle
as a child, goin’ through sh-t way harder than blowin’ out a bubble
i would know lot of trouble before i got to the lyrical ability
the water that was flowin’ out a funnel
i could channel the aggression and depression
for only a moment when i had to realize rappin’ ain’t it
when there wasn’t no more money from a record deal
i couldn’t get another one, so i was about to quit
had to get a job
didn’t wanna be a slob, even though i would rather be spittin’ bars
then one day, somebody saw me at work and said
“twista, why are you in here washin’ cars?”
that hurt my heart
that sh-t tore me apart
so i prayed up to god
that if i ever got another chance at music, i won’t take it for granted
i’ma dunk if i get the lob
ran into ak from do or die
he said, “come to the studio, i’ma put you on a song”
“start my new gig in the mornin’, but i’ma come after”
this is my chance to get back on
thankful that i was livin’ at my brother’s house
but i want my own, so i’ma finna go in
i walked in the lab and the beat was by trackster
title of the song was “po pimp”
i said, “ooh, snap”
i told ’em i’m about to j-p
spit it funky like i’m a mack
i’ma come off so hard on this track
it’s gon’ change my condition and change the way people rap
might be broke as sh-t and ain’t collectin’ no dough from tips
but i be spittin’ more game than a mouth full of poker chips
and i was glad that the world recognized how dope this is
and the prayer was effective
if you stressed and depressed, then let this calm and soak in your brain
first time that i ever played “po pimp” for somebody, i was on the way to work on the train
and i didn’t quit it until the record was droppin’
but when i did it, i knew it was right
’cause through my prayers and my faith and my words
it gets darker than what i would like, but i know i’m alright
