Only1jack$on - art and imperfections Lyrics

Where would we be without Art
Look everyday a new story and everyday Imma make it
I put crabs in a bucket l made it turn into bacon
I was waking up early and had these girlies half naked
And Half of them was all single but most of them was all taken
Look everybody keep on asking where you been
You was selling out shows you was setting up a trend
Superhero to the hood role model to the kids
And you barley had fame but yo character was rich
I ain't understand the influence that bring
I had different type of flows I can rap I sing
I can make a pop song I can make they ears ring
I was moving from a prince to a real life king
I ain't even know the gift that I had it was sad
Cause I took it for advantage went to take a different path
Now my numbers going down imma let you do the math
Had a hundred thousand streams then I took a step back
Had my mama on the phone trynna get my head right
Barley focused on the music opened up a new life
Moving outta Nanie crib at the club all night
Running way from the dreams that I had my whole life
Then my Uncle John passed went into a dark place
Stopped hanging with my brothers had to find a new space
Only hanging with the fam I ain't trynna save face
Only got a couple years let my talent go to waste
I was hanging with a crew we was like the dream team
Every night a different show opened up a new scene
Then it all died down now we on our own thing
All independent artist trynna make the crowd sing
After that I felt that I was ready for retirement
In a low space felt like I was uninspiring
I was at point I felt like that I was higher dean
Most these rappers in my city it was admiring
Sitting in my room crying every other night
Man I thought about a bullet maybe pulling out a knife
This is not for entertainment homie this is real life
I was thinking Thearpy but I don't know what feel right
It was one day that I woke up and I had to see the light
I was sinning everyday eventually I payed the price
Steady losing all my faith while I was trynna talk to Christ
But my mom said something it was really good advice
Your life is crumbling because you need to church
You be crying every other night cause you don't know your worth
You dean seen a couple demons try to knock you off yo turf
But you'll never lose a battle if you but the lord first
Man I took that whole message and I built my own faith
Now I'm confident as ever I can take the whole state
Not retiring from music we ain't taking no breaks
If you rappers wanna battle let me serve you up plate
I was really happy with myself that I found peace
Thought I needed Thearpy but it was something more in reach
Put yo faith inside God he can make ends meet
You can feel unstoppable in moments where you feel weak
Interpretation making up excuses then I found the glory
Giving truth to the people this not a metaphoric
Yes I live a peaceful life you prolly think it's kinda boring
Wrote this message for the people cause I wanna hear yo story huh
Wrote this for the people cause I wanna hear yo story huh
