JERHELL Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thereโ€ฒs another hole in the bread, fucking rats,
Why the fuck I gotta share only meal that I had left Ain't no telling
When the next time Ima chance to have a
Meal to myself... (these fuckin rats.).
Too many a wrong turn on the move but iโ€ฒm off track
Too much of my time spent no money could buy it back now things
Happening so fast im feelin the road rash I been living low class,
Im just tryna grow past
The nigga I used to be
They seeing me through a screen they think they know everything,
I'm the one controlling things they seeing what i let em
See, never showed no weaknesses cuz I don't know the enemy,
And ainโ€ฒt no water here either...
Ainโ€ฒt no gas in the whip guess I ain't fuckin leavin,
Donโ€ฒt you offer me pity nigga I don't fuckin need it
Sometimes I think about dying cuz it be way more easy.
But Iโ€ฒm alive, always tell myself that everything gone be
Alright, I'm about to see a better day a better night, a better night
But Iโ€ฒm alive, always tell myself that everything gone be
Alright, I'm about to see a better
Day a better night, better nights...
Drill, drill, drill diggin deep for this shit uh Who you going kill?
I ain't dying in this bitch
I stay up donโ€ฒt go down, I can never slow down,
Sometimes I donโ€ฒt know how but I'm moving strong now
Drill, drill, drill diggin deep for this shit
Try to fuckin kill me but Iโ€ฒm living in this bitch
I stand wit ten toes down kept it real who sold out,
All these niggas sleeping on me (snore) y'all snore loud
And Iโ€ฒm still breathing, Im steady say you can not kill me,
That's a bold thesis,
Iโ€ฒm am not saying that shit for nothing I got good reason.
My dedication for tryna make it keep my heart beaten,
Dreams of escaping from poverty nigga I'm still dreamin.
Till I am satisfied with my life nigga I'm not leaving,
And shout out to all the people that supported me,




And I promise you that youโ€ฒll be hearing more from me.
Cuz Iโ€ฒm alive.
