Axel Jay - My Life

Suicides are turning these rumors right into murder plots
High schoolers finding dead bodies out in the parking lot
Social media's gonna find its way into your thoughts
That's why you gotta tune it out and stick to doin what you want
Find some friends who all can sit down and roll a blunt
Take a look around and know that none of em will ever stunt
If you got a problem then I'd prefer that you would be up front
Instead of later finding out the shit you talked the other month
You can't make everyone your friend
Can't go through your life and pretend
That all your bonds and relationships never see an end
You ain't gotta blend be authentic in every text you send
Every life's a story don't write yours with someone else's pen
Go to sleep at night
With peace of mind
That while others steady slacking and jacking you steady on your grind
Give into the urges you'll find you wasting all your time
Rise above the petty life find comfort on the other side
The side with riches and love
The side that you hear all the famous talks and speeches of
Growing up they teaching us
We gotta go to school and get a job that barely make enough
Encourage all our dreams but when we chase they end up hating us
Accept the bad and appreciate all the failure
Blame somebody else for your problems end up a janitor
Responsible for someone else's mess ain't that ironic
How the tables turn on those who's relationships ain't platonic
Those who use you for their benefit
Then cut you out and pass you off just for the hell of it
Want you if your relevant
Stab you in the back but say they know you when you're eminent
Silent when you're struggling but love you in your element
Celebrate in private keep your progress hidden
Keep track of who supported you and those who didn't
Watch how all the people who stood by to watch
Claim they were part of the process and they been with you since the start of it
All these people hating now they wishing they were part of it
Apologize for everything they did but I won't pardon it
Share my throne with anyone who had my back
And I'll ignore all of the fakes who did me foul like I'm Artemis
Aint nobody gonna find love
Until they learn to love right
Learn to love right
I've seen it all and I've heard enough
To know who I want in my life
Want in my life
I'll open up your eyes
But don't act so surprised
At the things you'll find
The ones who speak through lies
Are drowning in their pride
Their evil lives inside
You know what
I think it's funny
So many throwing their lives away for some money
So many stuck in a cubicle while it's sunny
So many losing relationships with their honey
The same ones that tell me I can't make it
That big dreams are for children I'm outdated
That it's a better life to stay basic
Well just watch me work and I'll gladly show you why you're mistaken
Why yo shawty flirt and you still trynna tell me that's she's taken
Why yo feelings hurt but you still trynna smile quit the fakin
You down in the dirt but everyday for me is like vacation
Call my work a hobby you still call your work on occupation
Your too busy trynna tell everybody that you are better
Stressin out while the rest of us sit outside enjoy the weather
Puttin half of your paycheck into another Gucci sweater
While an hours work will put me on a jet down to wherever
I wake up and I'm grateful
And I wake up with a bank full
And if I woke up with nothing I'd still wake up and be thankful
Everything is a blessing
The ones I love with me today
The ones above who passed away
The chance to speak as Axel Jay
And say the things I wanna say
In a unique and different way
Because the world is going crazy different issues everyday
If you just worry bout yourself
Put reputation on the shelf
And be somebody that'll help
And not somebody the brings hell
You'd find yourself a lighter shade of grey
And you're finally willing to wake up every day
I know this life can treat you like an endless maze
But the pasture will clear and love forever reign
Just take a breath and take it slow
Your date with death can come before you know
Down the river of life through waters high and low
You must continue to row
Hold tight and never let go
Aint nobody gonna find love
Until they learn to love right
Learn to love right
I've seen it all and I've heard enough
To know who I want in my life
Want in my life
I'll open up your eyes
But don't act so surprised
At the things you'll find
The ones who speak through lies
Are drowning in their pride
Their evil lives inside
Their evil lives inside
