Ain't For Nothin'

Feelings that I neva share
Wondering if my thoughts will travel
To places & people I neva met
Or if my fatha neva seen
A threat
Would he be teaching me
All the lessons he learned
With no regrets?

Guess I see it
When I get ta rest

(Yeah)
(Uh)

Right back where I started
Know my heart is guarded
I sent directions to my blessings
Hope they hit the target
Used to pray i get a deal
Then we'd end up in Charlotte
That's word to Laina
I couldn't blame er
If she left me hanging
But thats impossible
All this shit Is illogical
For dat paper I follow thru
Tryna dodge all the obstacles
Yeah
But that's an undastatement
I'm workin' 9-5 shifts
Just to fuckin' make it
But when the candle
Starts to dim
Who be the
one to take it
To higher heights
cause niggas
Fold on quiet nights
When the reaper
Get to speaking
in tongue
It's like reading rights
Or
When the pressure get
To hot on ya back
& you lose sights
Damn
Forever stavin
Got my mind on a check
I'm workin late
That overtime
For the grind
It don't rest
I talk to God
And all he know
That I striving for the best
Just close ya eyes
And put ya faith to the test

Hey

God protect me from
What's comin'
Ion know what's
Up ahead
But I like who
I'm becomin'
Just push the button
Know the pain
We overcome it
Let me know that
That all this grindin'
Ain't all for nothin'

Yeah

God protect me from
What's comin'
Ion know what's
Up ahead
But I like who
I'm becoming
Just push the button
Know the pain
We overcome it
Let me know that
That all this grindin'
Ain't all for nothin'

Yeah

I'm on another wave
My neck is like the
Everglades
Tryna leave
a legacy
I pray my spirit
neva fade
Marshall
Got my back
I Told em soon
We be foreva paid
Short on time
For rent
Although my head
Is raised
Was neva fazed
Look back at my life
I'm glad I beat the maze
Was in a daze
Wonderin' would I see
Past 11th grade
I couldn't pray
Now I stand ten
On a map
Or wherever I'm at
I talk to God & talk
Back thru my raps

Hey

God protect me from
What's comin'
Ion know what's
Up ahead
But I like who
I'm becomin' (Straight up)
Just push the button
You know pain
We overcome it (Griff)
Let me know that
That all this grindin'
Ain't all for nothin'

Yeah

God protect me from
What's comin'
Ion know what's
Up ahead
But I know who
I'm becomin'
Just push the button
You know pain
We overcome it
Let me know that
That all this grindin'
Ain't all for nothin'

Yeah

Let me know that
That all this grindin'
Ain't all for nothin'

Yeah

Thank You
