[intro]

[verse 1: touchline]
in and out of my little depressive state
but i still get behind the mic and give an impressive take
ngise studio then go to engine for pepper steak
’cause our sessions are forever late
only time we do morning is at the grave
speakin’ of grave, ironically they do not dig me
’cause i call a spade a spade
nezinye izinto that i should just never say
especially on some of the songs wе made
but i would just go insane if i didn’t use my music as an outlеt
when life starts to show me flames
i’m in a very selfish, very ruthless and lonely game
can’t rely on they love ’cause very soon it will slowly fade
and changing careers will start to feel like the only way
affection will turn to hate
they no longer entertain
things change, you are hot in their eyes like pepper spray
and then they start to treat you like you weren’t really ever great
like your music is not what they used to play when they celebrate
or when they in bed awake
thinkin’ about they next move when they in need of inspiration
when they pray for a breakthrough and start to get impatient
they used to defend you in the “who’s the greatest?” conversation
but when a new guy comes, they dump you without hesitation
your songs were there for them when they parents separated
there for them when they got cheated on and they were devastated
there for them when everyone around them said they’d never make it
there for them when daddy left and all they little hearts were breakin’
ooh, and now they breakin’ yours
now tickets don’t sell out at the tours, of course
it’s more painful because without they validation you outdated and poor
and now you know you not that guy anymore
that’s something you can’t ignore
you just not what you used to be
so you go on apple music and you cl!ck on your own songs
and you give yourself a stream, just to boost your self~esteem
that’s the nature of this dream
you used to feel invincible but now you unsure
you don’t drop but your computer still got music galore
you ask them, “should i drop this song?” and they ask you, “what for?”
that’s how you know you not that guy anymore
[break: jay jody]
bona
not that guy anymore
tears of joy, don’t get it twisted, i don’t cry anymore (bona)
they say, “it’s not alive anymore”
but we try to make it timeless so we don’t die anymore (yeah)
[verse 2: jay jody]
alone in the studio
the stakes are high, the lights are low
brown liquor, four blocks of ice in my styrofoam (yeah)
fresh joint lighted up next to the microphone
recording with my eyes closed, i never spit it via phone
i get hot and speak from deep inside when i recite a poem (yeah)
and then go have some n~gga on twitter decide if i am on (woah)
i’m heavenly sick in thoughts, anxiety mixed with imposter syndrome
will they love it or not?
i paid for the mix and i dropped
then hoping to god they listen
whether they bump it or not, is not my decision (no)
at least i managed to rap about it, get it out my system (yeah, uh)
(come on)
[verse 3: jay jody]
some of these legends made magic but the game tricked them (d~mn)
all they did was play they part they took, it never played victim
y’all used to wanna hang with them but now you wanna lynch him
then watch him die slowly, post some pics and say you miss him
you forgot that he was strugglin’
you were trolling and you dissed him
not giving a f~ck that maybe compassion could probably fix him
but i guess it’s pretty normal to get crossed if you a christian
and all the lines i cross now is toxic competition (woah)
it’s like all the strongest guys are bound to face depression
an abusive relationship, chasing hits in every session (woah), uh
you made a meme but missed the message (woah), uh
don’t miss your right of passage
hhp was more like jigga to me
like a motswako biggie smalls, a big figure for me
pro was like a mix of pac and nas
before demise, i met both guys
sadly they were low but they were heroes in my f~ckin’ eyes (rest in peace jabba, rest in peace pro)
yeah, still heroes in my f~ckin’ eyes (forever in our hearts, yeah)
i met both guys and they were heroes in my f~ckin’ eyes
