Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mainly whatever the f*** you say means something
That s*** is in you, you ain't gotta try that hard
I just want you to know that
[Verse 2]
There's no romancing without the pain
Just like there's no loss without some gain
Just like there's no day without a blessing
Just like no paydays without finessin'
But when who hurt you's forgiven
And all the late nights you been wishing
Finally pay off and go the distance
I pray you get everything you missing
Everything you missing, dawg
I pray you get everything you missing
Everything you missing
I pray you get everything you missing
[Verse 3]
I'm 'bout to delete my Twitter and follow my intuition
Been in and out the mud, but somehow I'm in mint condition
I wonder if granddad woulda seen these Instagram vixens
Every fifteen minutes, but he outdid everything that he did or he didn't
I wonder how it feels to be rapping, swear that's my f****** passion
How it feel to go platinum, swear that's my dream, but he too blind to see
That if he doing what he love in his free time, then his dream already happened
It's not about the trophy, it's 'bout what it took to grab it
And if you feeling stagnate, just know that you attracting the energy
That you put out there, you a walking magnet
Life will be a struggle, but what isn't, that's worth having (Huh?)
[Verse 4]
There's no romancing without the pain
Just like there's no loss without some gain
Just like there's no day without a blessing
Just like no paydays without finessin'
But when who hurt you's forgiven
And all the late nights you been wishing
Finally pay off and go the distance
I pray you get everything you missing
Everything you missing, dawg
I pray you get everything you missing
Everything you missing
[Verse 5]
New life start with a blank canvas
Trying to find yourself, you move to lost Angeles
Where the cameras off, you still not off camera
That meeting that's supposed to change your life keep getting canceled
Swear my prayers gonna get answered before these execs answer
S***, expenses get too expensive, but you gonna do what it takes to do the digits
Even do the dishes, 'cause you gotta prove to the world how you committed
You got a whole city to inspire, it's so cold in the D so through they eyes you on fire
Going platinum once like catching lighting in a bottle, but you do it fifty times
And you realize contracts say a lot between the lines
But through the ups and downs you make a blue print that the city can build they own way out
And when they do it's gon' feel like that you almost did it
And you buy everything you want, but it barely make you different
And you find out random b****** can't even compare to commitment
And you learn hearing doubts doesn't mean you have to listen
And you can't believe how much you made, not money, a difference
And find out everything you had, was everything you missing
