Joy Lyrics by Ayo

2021

Intro:
I'd like to dedicate this song to me and thank my family for giving me the name Ayo
Ayo, which means Joy in Yoruba that’s where I got this title from that's joy joy

(Verse 1)
Don't come after me as the old me I haven’t reached my homie, that shit look tacky you should get to know me And for the record showing, yeah this shit get lonely, lately I've been tryna think of something to get the people going
Skipping work to study rhymes because the drive is really showing but wе haven't made it yet, hopеfully
No this shit ain't easy like the alphabet I'm talkin ABCs, she gon fuck with a nigga, I got the hustlers spirit talking all that shit, if you want it let's get it
Niggas wanna pull up to the crib what else you need to know, I got a hot flow
I'm the youngest nigga getting close, that's in case you didn’t know
I catch the vibe and then go, the name go AYO and aye yo, don’t fuck with too many yo
Now watch the money grow, rawr I got bars no Xanax
Cause we don't give no fucks he’s up, the fan next
It's complicated like plate tectonics
It's still ironic, yet they claim to know it is what it is
I know the Bizz need another someone like me

Chorus:
And that goes J.O.Y why tell lies, we ain't got the time all the dust in my eye all to see one of us cry
That’s J.O.Y why tell lies, we ain't got the time dust in my eye one of us cry

(Verse 2)
If he quarter backing I'm sacking these niggas lacking, action like the movies though that's why I'm snapping, that shit don't move me and that's what you're lacking too busy capping, I'm making love with a passion while niggas cracking
I'm home for the season y'all niggas acting, all these signs but I can barley read them in this fashion
What am I supposed to believe in, what happened?
I can't leave until we even you know that, I done wrote a dozen songs but no one wrote back
I'm sipping cognac and having flashbacks
Y'all niggas is wack
This ain't no punchline I spit that fine wine you get it, that's fine wine just how I like mine
I'm a trap a nigga like a deer in headlights because I'm ruthless, I ain't even tryna fight
You got me feeling like the only nigga, you got me feeling like the only nigga right
I understand, they only doin shit outta spite
I should have wrote a hook before I cut this too deep with a knife but here we are and this is where I stand, I need this and that just to have a simple kickback

Chorus:
And that goes J.O.Y why tell lies, we ain't got the time all the dust in my eye all to see one of us cry
That's J.O.Y why tell lies, we ain't got the time dust in my eye one of us cry
And that goes J.O.Y why tell lies, we ain't got the time all the dust in my eye all to see one of us cry
That's J.O.Y why tell lies, we ain't got the time dust in my eye one of us cry

Outro:
One of us cry one of us cry yeah
Dust in my eye one of us cry
