John J. Fox Lyrics

Keep up
Maintain the pace

Sitting back with his feet up
Relaxing and enjoying success

Celebrating wit champagne
Marking achievements with luxury

Cold drinks and a re-up
Refreshing and restocking supplies

Of anything i ever wanted
Obtaining all desires

Lusting for change
Desiring transformation

Came in the game with no intention of staying
Entering the scene temporarily

And made a stain you can’t wash out
Creating a lasting impact

Remember the name
Make sure to not forget

Ave the Fox
Recognize the presence of the artist

More showtime than late night box
Offering an exceptional performance

More live
Highly energetic

Than a show at the Fox
Exceeding the liveliness of a Fox theater performance

First row is full of haters yeah i brought em all out
Those who dislike are present in the front row due to my influence

Coming attraction
Being anticipated

Attracting the game
Drawing attention and interest from the industry

Know that this splash in this lane
Recognize the impact I'm making in this field

Bring a movement of change
Initiate a shift in perspective and action

Rattle your frame
Shake you to the core

Awake to color and impact of my range
Become aware of the vibrancy and significance of my expression

Black boy wit a chain but ain’t chained
A person of color with freedom and independence

They fearing no limitations as i lift the ceiling off this thing
Defying boundaries and inspiring others

Thanks
Expressing gratitude

The passion is active
The enthusiasm is engaged

Your action is passive
Your behavior lacks initiative

My impact is massive
My influence is significant

Your passion more fight club than brad Pitt
Your dedication lacks grace and finesse

You crashing
You're experiencing failure

The master is active
The expert is in control

This wardrobe you can’t get
This style is unattainable by you

It’s styled for a classic, I mastered this
It's designed for timeless appeal, and I have perfected it

Can’t deny this
You can't refuse or ignore this

Let that color
Allow that distinctiveness

Be the pilot
Take control and lead the way

Let it glide it
Allow it to flow gracefully

You entering round two
You're venturing into the next phase

First book of Matthew
Reference to the Gospel of Matthew

Don’t ask, you
Don't inquire, listen

Just might get all of the wrath of these bars
You might face the full force of my lyrics

Like i threw the whole jail house at you
Similar to facing the entirety of a correctional facility

And that’s you
And it's directed at you

Begging for chains
Desiring captivity and limitations

Homeless to self
Lacking a sense of belonging

No comfort in the color you stain
Finding no solace in your own heritage

Walk around hating colors you aim
Disliking the identities you aspire to embody

All that hate and that ones that hang around in your range
The hatred and negative influences within your circle

That self-hate is strange fruit
The self-loathing is a peculiar and destructive phenomenon

You rotten tooth
You are a decayed and unhealthy element

No taste
Lacking flavor or appeal

Sad goof
Depressed and foolish individual

Deserve to be sailed down Shits creek in a canoe
Deserving to face great adversity

Can’t you
Isn't it obvious to you?

Drown in a whole mound of the sad truth
Overwhelm yourself with the painful reality

Integrity more present than big foot in a field shoot
Having a high level of honesty and authenticity

And yet we back here for round two
Despite previous encounters, we're here again

These rounds chew
These encounters are challenging

Shark week
Intense and competitive situation

Tune in for the downfall of this frail troop
Prepare to witness the defeat of this weak group

Hold this L
Accept this loss

I got a whole 100 round clip
I possess abundant ammunition

To dispel
To eliminate or eradicate

Catch all hell
Experience severe consequences

Lil boy
Insignificant and immature person

With your head down
Feeling defeated and demoralized

Life’s got you holding a bad round
Life is subjecting you to a streak of misfortune

And that sound of shame that they really got you down
Feeling deeply embarrassed and disheartened by their criticism

You look like a real clown
You appear foolish and ridiculous

Your face like a permanent frown
Your expression constantly reflects unhappiness

Body hunched down
Posture displaying defeat and despair

And currently alone crazy
Presently feeling isolated and mentally disturbed

Ain’t no support round but you found
There is no assistance available, but you discovered

A little voice that was deep down
A small inner strength that was buried within

You tried to keep yourself motivated when beat Down
You attempted to stay motivated during hardships

I see you though
I acknowledge your struggles

Know you said you holding the last straw
Understand that you feel you're at a breaking point

You beat it though
But you overcame it regardless

All that weight on your back
The burdens you carry

Yeah?
Isn't that right?

But you carry though
But you persist in carrying them

Even though
Despite the fact that

None of this is really your issue
None of these burdens are truly your responsibility

But You pushed that button
But you accepted those burdens

But you really ain’t the way with answers is you
However, you don't possess the solutions yourself

Hoping that the answer come into you
Expecting the solution to come from an external source

Even though the guidance is the reason it ain’t coming to you
Despite the fact that relying on guidance prevents the solution from reaching you

And you got that color that’s now waking up inside you
And you possess an identity that is now emerging within you

Now you got the fox to guide you down the ave as you try to figure out the real you
Now you have the artist as a guiding influence as you explore your true self

Let that color present
Allow that uniqueness to be shown

Let that color come through
Allow that distinctiveness to shine

Now let’s see what you do
Now let's observe your actions
