Rest
J. Onvlee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't care to impress a man, I'll just check a man
Gotta prove the shit that I'm not
Play with fire & get burnt
Ya shooting shit & got shot
The lord bless me everytime
Gotta crucifix on my watch
If you a true bitch, I tell you move bitch
I'm the Ludacris of my block
Moment of silence...
Prosperity, peace opponents is silent
Put a ring on it?
I tell a bitch why is your phone on vibrant?
Vaca escaping these thoughts
Why would I go roll to a island
Fell in love with the hustle
A nigga might moan when he grinding
Wishing these suckers start thinking like usher
Bad is the king, hope something remind them
Yikes, I do for it likes
Sike, the money I'm feeling like Wanda
H to the east, I feast on the streets
Don't matter the place I make it wakanda
He dreamed of wanting to blow
BFoaM jihad, we made him a bomber
The rest I'm deprived
I put in my craft, invest in my crimes
Metric I fuck with them drugs
Everything else is westernized
Macho bravado I sprinkle wit pain
Mixed with depression that's sexualized
Ice on my chain
Mexican eyes
No Rest for the wicked
Slow sex for the sinning
They done took it too far
Grotesque how I did'em
It's the venom in my blood
Never show a nigga love
Cause the love get you killed
Here the game that I'm penning
For the wicked no Rest
For the bitches no check
No Rest for the wicked
Slow sex for the sinning
They done took it too far
Grotesque how I did'em
It's the venom in my blood
Never show a nigga love
Cause the love get you killed
Here the game that I'm penning




For the wicked no Rest
For the bitches no check

Line by Line Meaning

Is the struggle and strife we find in this life
Are the difficulties and challenges of life truly worthwhile?


Really worth while, after all
Do they have any actual significance in the end?


I've been wishing today I could just run away
I have been yearning to escape the monotony of daily life


Out where the west winds call
To a place where the winds blow across the western plains


With someone like you, a pal good and true
With a loyal and dependable companion like you


I'd like to leave it all behind and go and find
I'd like to abandon everything and explore


Some place that's known to god alone
An unknown location only known to a higher power


Just a spot to call our own
A place that would be ours and no one else's


We'll find perfect peace, where joys never cease
We will discover complete tranquility without any end to happiness


Out there beneath a kindly sky
With the benevolent sky above us


We'll build a sweet little nest somewhere in the west
We will create a cozy home in the western regions


And let the rest of the world go by
Ignoring everything else happening in the world


Is the future to hold just struggles for gold
Will our forthcoming times be exclusively focused on acquiring wealth?


While the real world waits outside
Meanwhile, the actual planet is waiting out there


Away out on the breast of the wonderful west
Far away on the bosom of the magnificent western regions


Across the great divide
Beyond the large gulf


With someone like you, a pal good and true
With a steadfast and trusted friend like you


I'd like to leave it all behind and go and find
I'd like to abandon everything and explore


Some place that's known to god alone
An unknown location only known to a higher power


Just a spot to call our own
A place that would be ours and no one else's


We'll find perfect peace, where joys never cease
We will discover complete tranquility without any end to happiness


Out there beneath a kindly sky
With the benevolent sky above us


We'll build a sweet little nest somewhere in the west
We will create a cozy home in the western regions


And let the rest of the world go by
Ignoring everything else happening in the world
