That's a good question
What are you really protecting
That's a good question
Look
Know better you don't do better
Who let another trend setter in the room with us
Who ever wanna get scary is a fool
Better move better cause the bass vary and I'm too clever
Cause You know that I miss the face you make when you stand by me
If it's true tho you going away I'm hoping you call me
I don't know how to keep it together I feel outta body
I don't know how to hold it all calmly
Stand by me
They said I ain't do what I'm 'sposed to
Want my stamp on the music like it's postal
Want a plaque and the letter that I wrote you
I'm the last person that I really spoke to
I'm the first person that you gotta go through
What would it take for me to be local
Hope you pray for me and what I go through
Said you look familiar where I know you from
I been making music let me show you some
I ain't even gotta play my go to song
Bass too hard and my flow too strong
I just try to tell them what I know through song
We bout to get paid
And I know you stunned
They hoped on the wave
Didn't know you swum
Drums start knocking like the troops be
I just wrote this down on some loose leaf
Bass start kicking like Bruce Lee
Ran into cupid told him please don't shoot me
You know that I miss the face you make when you stand by me
If it's true tho you going away I'm hoping you call me
I don't know how to keep it together I feel outta body
I don't know how to hold it all calmly
Stand by me
Who did you think that you really was to me
I told you bout the music said it wasn't for me
You just don't get what it does to me
Why I still bother with of the music
Cause I gotta make it by any means
I thank my father for the gifts and I use it
He told me just have faith and believe
He told me have faith in my team
I'm praying till I'm week in the knees
Give me one more chance Lord please
Gotta watch for my brother in New Orleans
I ain't looking for you to reward me
Seem like every advance there's more fees
I been paying the man my car leased
Ima have to get fans abroad seas
I know I wasn't fit but I was lean
Everything ain't what it seems
I jumped the cliff to build my wings
I wasn't built to kill my dreams no
You know that I miss the face you make when you stand by me
If it's true tho you going away I'm hoping you call me
I don't know how to keep it together I feel outta body
I don't know how to hold it all calmly
Stand by me
