Joy

I started off with joy

I ended up with burden

I guess it ain't healing

If you ain't hurting

Ain't nothing like being broke

And still working

And knowing being a rich

Can't fix a broke person

Even in my worst times

I found my best versions

When shit was going left

I made it right like Ky Irving

Finger rolling till I hit the bank

Net splurging

With lost relationships that I admit

That I submerged in

Head above the water

Tryna stay a float

Look I had holes in my boat

Them same holes got it soaked

This might be the realest shit

I ever wrote

Shit I ain't do it for the quotes

I can't overnight the oats

I'm bout to wake em like espresso

This considered a manifesto

Far from being perfect

But still roll a perfecto

The love stay quiet

But when it's hate shit echos

Been feeling blocked

But I'm still running Pacheco

High stepping

Been snapping for like 9 seconds

Wasn't Adam in our times

To rewind seconds

We didn't play it by the book

Still we defined stressing

It was hard as hell

But grateful we still had blessings

When being scary finally push you to edge

Feeling like you bout to fall

A double sworded edge

I could panic but like French

we keep it calm instead

It's safe to say I'm hunting now

I'm tryna get ahead

Bare with me dawg

I need a house before a mantel

Everybody wants the lead

Let's lead by example

If I say I want it all what the fuck's a sample?

If I'm tryna speak my mind

What the fuck's a cancel?

I heard Jay when he said

Less is more

For every exit out the door

It's another door

It get ugly you gone question

What you do it for

Ironic it was beauty

The first time I metaphor
