lirik lagu jay lonzo - it takes a village
(verse 1)
im drifting into my happy place so i’m good now
brower’s ’round the corner i know i’m back in the hood now
my journal rippin’ it’s time to get me a new one a blue one maybe to compliment how i’m feeling i like to keep ’em guessing
not a follower, i guess it makes me hollywood
climbing up the ranks you don’t know me but you prolly should
fans growing they don’t always want the best for me
ez and lace are ’bout it so i keep my brothers next to me
especially the summers thats been jumpin’ off on my block
tryna catch this buzz from rap so they can say i died hot
it took a village to raise me and this the story of it
i pray i make it just so i can feel the glory of it
look at my family who helped raise me a man
smiling at you fully when i know i’ve done all i can
family getting smaller tryna see it as a blessing
all the ones who p-ssed, tried to p-ss to us a lesson
listen close, soak the moments that you have cuz there ain’t no guarantee that god gon’ gift u what u ask
stuck in the past, my failures is flaring up again
call up my cousins, just checkin to see w-ssup with them
they lost their father it honestly hit me hard
cuz he was there thru it all, pick em up when they fall
i saw, weddings graduations even proms and it’s hard
cuz he was like a father figure almost to us all
we got another angel tho, y’all gon’ stay strong
he’ll be our security, you know he got his shades on, game on, these my eulogy words
play this record at my funeral so truth can be heard, word
(verse 2)
it took a village to raise me and one to tear me down
but i could go any second i’m tryna share my sound
i wrote my will as a freshman cuz i was ready for it
sitting alone wit ya thoughts, that sh-t is deadly for you
at my age, i wasn’t supposed to see this side of things
my eyes were limited, my mental saw a lot of things
i wasn’t supposed to rap like this either
or mack wit no seniors
it k!lled me getting back wit a cheater, but sh-t
i’m defensive, the benefit is i know the ropes
i relapse to this music cuz its my only hope
i feel the pressure i am the pressure i hand depression its first l
works well for other students but me, i ain’t here for standard lessons
i am obsessive i’m working amongst these demons in me
i think of teachers who told me i had no g*nius in me
arena tours, i see it, they ain’t believing in me
i’ll lead my city to more
more or less, these diamonds are made from stress
from thinking that i’m the worst, to proving that i’m the best
and always feeling at home, but knowing that i’m the guest
customizing the throne cuz i’ll be sitting there next
i finally know that i’m worthy, it ain’t no better feeling
i’ll be up early, just writing until i make a million
it took a village, it takes a village, i made an image
i’m tryna build up an empire and then make a village
i’ll take percentage, i’ll make a business, who gave me love
it takes a village to break me and one to raise me up
