Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah
J-Izzy I got you
Look
Bad intensions on my mind
Im not meant for nine to five
I get paid to spit these rhymes
I might be greatest of all time
If I make it they gone bump it
I just spent what you make in a month
In the club like fuck it
Im gonna make it back its easy
Im cocky trust believe me
Used to be insecure
I found myself then it free me
Ace of spaced and fettuccine
One day ill cop Lamborghinis
How I make the money up here
Is like magic I'm Houdini, yeah
Lost in the night got me soaring through my mind
Can’t tell what’s even real or who’s just tryna take a slice of my life
Loosing track of time inspection in my mind
Still i’m always searching for this long lost paradise
Killer in the mind never see me killing time
Too caught in a dream making money when I rhyme now
Burn another bridge while i'm sitting at the hideout
Diss em indirectly bet they never find out
Kill em in theses parts like a sniper on his mark
Chris Kyle from a far hit em dead up at the target
Hear my shot it’ll be too late
I'll have already plotted my get away
Get get get get get away from me
Spraying round up on the family tree
Need to weed out these toxic branches
That see me as their cash advances
Or stepping stones in their own direction
When you make it big James don’t forget us
Where were you for all my shows
I guess retired drunk is a full time roll
Lost in the night got me soaring through my mind
Can’t tell what’s even real or who’s just tryna take a slice of my life
Loosing track of time inspection in my mind
Still i’m always searching for this long lost paradise
Still i’m always searching
Still i’m always working
I lost up in the night got me feeling like I got no purpose
Still i'm always searching
Still i’m always working
For that happiness I lack where that smile can you give it back
Man i've been doing this shirt for so many years now
I lost so much sleep, so much time, money, energy
Still, i'm lost in the night
Feel it in the rhyme getting better with the time
Like a fine wine I think it’s almost time
Too break me out, can you feel it now
I can see the fans singing in the crowd
Right along to every song
When I hit the stage all my problems gone
But like a dream it slowly fades
Too a lonely smile through a darkened day yeah
Shit just keeps getting better though man
Don't ever look down
No matter how dark your surrounding get around you
Don't ever take your eye off the light at the end of that tunnel

I have sacrificed a lot for this profession

Like a fine wine I think it’s almost time
Just like fine wine, I believe I'm getting better with time and nearing a break
Too break me out, can you feel it now
It's time for me to make a breakthrough, can you sense it?
I can see the fans singing in the crowd
I can imagine my fans enjoying my songs in a live crowd
Right along to every song
My fans can sing to every song
When I hit the stage all my problems gone
I forget all my issues when I am on stage performing
But like a dream it slowly fades
Unfortunately, the feeling is brief and temporary
Too a lonely smile through a darkened day yeah
I am left with a lonesome smile through the day
Shit just keeps getting better though man
Despite it all, it's getting better
Don't ever look down
Never lose hope
No matter how dark your surrounding get around you
Even when life is challenging, still push through and carry on
Don't ever take your eye off the light at the end of that tunnel
Never lose sight of the goal at hand
