Vojayy - Nice Day to Reminisce

This is a beautiful time
To look back
And love yourself
Leave your heart fulfilled
This is a beautiful time
To finally spread that love
And let yourself love
This is a beautiful time
This is a beautiful time
Yeah
Nine to fives, my life's been played in my eyes
Get shot or stabbings from knifes
My destiny since I was five
I've been robbed, I've been jumped
That's my life in a book
But before you overlook
It's beauty in that pain I took a look
Imagine me all shook, like what
I could be more
All my peers lost the vision so they couldn't see the door
We ain't trapped
Just like jay man we ain't going back
Just like will, y'all
Let's never turn our back
Instead let's do
What we thought way back
A bunch of businessmen just trying to make our way man
Before it's anyway man
But we got to get that money man
I don't won't to lose my values
In this hood a couple of dollars is worth my life's value
It's crazy when you think about that
I wonder do you ever think about it
'Cause I've been thinking about it
And I really been a mess
All the friends that I missed
All the times that I rant
Why I'm living my life with less
Why my homie lost his life from bets
I guess I just wasn't ready for those answers yet
I had to grow more
I had to see my life was more
Than I thought before
I had to thank god for the times that I should've lost before
But he let me live more
Nights when we couldn't afford
But a smile through the little things always meant more
No electric but we living so we made it light
And joy through the pain is when we living right
That's when we living right
This is a beautiful time
To look back
And love yourself
Leave your heart fulfilled
This is a beautiful time
To finally spread that love
And let yourself love
This is a beautiful time
This is a beautiful time
Yeah
Five to nine, I'm up with a peace of mind
Trying to change my life with rhymes, but I know I ain't got the time
Always work, I'm working my life away
I wonder when the work will take the pain away
But it never works that way, uh
So I'm up and stressing
I'm looking over blessings
I been a man I'm testing
My faith I'll confess it
I need to rethink
I need to let love in
Before I do sink
But I've been writing what I feel because it's harder to think
And I've been worried even more so I barely do blink
'Cause in this life I'm a target
When I know more of my soul the path's darken
When I tell more of my story the walls harden
Bars holding me in a cell
But we're spreading love for real
So this mental jail can never hold my will
We're going to live a real life for real
I'm going to keep on saying it until
Until it's reality
Being down and out
This can't be my lively hood
I learned me through the struggle so I'm always good
Smart man with a plan
But they view me as hood
Can't ever escape the thoughts
But we're building greatness in the dark
So we always shining from a far
Hoping for our people we'll align the stars
Speaking greatness through these bars
Creating visions of something more
