letra de jazzman - perseu

[produced by b young]

[verse 1]
i seen this man one day
across the street
with his saxophone
playing some heat
he was lonely
sitting on the bridge
full moon in the sky
looking down at him
i walked up and said
“how you doing?”
he said “nothing lil man, just secluding
myself from this crazy ass world
living this life just gives me a whirl”
i said, “i can relate, i can feel your pain”
he said, “what pain, lil mane
i feel, i feel great
it’s just all these people out here insane
it’s like none of em got a brain
that’s why i come here at this bridge
living down there with my tent
no bills, no tax, no rent
just me and my saxophone
it hеlps me breathe whеn i start to drown
feels like i succeed when i’m down
helps me feel renowned when no ones around”
i thought to myself, d-mn this guy’s relatable
he has a dream, it just ain’t attainable
i had that feeling, feeling like a failure
he says he good, but he ain’t being truthful
i know this world can be so ruthful
i know this world can be so cruel
you want to rule
but do you have the fuel
because trust me, that sh-t is crucial
that sh-t is crucial like

[verse 2]
i went home and said
“bye bye, man”
he said
“see you later then”
it started raining as i started to walk
through the city, of homeless and chalk
i got home and went in my bed
went to sleep but i start to wept
i don’t know it just crept
on me, felling like a zombie
i went back to the bridge next night
see if my man jazzman’s alright
when i got to the bridge, no sight
of the man i seen last night
i looked over the bridge and gasped
i seen jazzman hanging dead
but i just talked to him last night
little did i know that breath was his last
then i felt that feeling, i was sad
this man could’ve had a great great life
with kids, with dogs, and beautiful wife
but life didn’t even give him a chance
he had the sk!lls but had no luck
thinking to myself holy f-ck
i hope that ain’t gon happen to me
having the talents, but no motivation
i was just so close to graduation
who knows if this rap sh-t’s gonna work
but i can’t just rush, i gotta have patience like like
i have to work, day and night
365, 24/7
please please please god i pray, i’m beggin
and then i look up at heaven
i see a cloud start to form
it was jazzman in angel form
then here we go, a thunderstorm
jazzman started talking and gave me advice
he told lil man
“just stop that cry man
what you doing?
listen to me, listen to me now, and listen good
life is hard, and it has a price
and that price is called happiness, alright”
and i said
“what you mean?, you was happy man”
and he said
“i know, but i ain’t got a plan
that’s why i hanged myself, i ain’t got no place
i was happy sure, but i didn’t embrace
now it’s up to you, would you fill my place?
be the kid that i never had
would do that for me, would you make me glad?”
i said
“sure, jazzman i got yo back”
“now what?, what we gonna do?”
i said “i don’t know it’s up to you”
he got sax and played the blues
i started vibing with him, made me cry
he said
“why don’t you spit some lines”
and so i sang, and so i sang
[break]
jazzman, you inspire me
you make me feel so free
you have gift and that gift ain’t free
give it out, show em what you be
you lost your life, but you’re still a g
you don’t know what you mean to me
this world is at your feet
take the chance and be a king

[outro]
i wanna be great
and you’re not
i wanna be one of the greats
