Tense Lyrics by J Knox

2018

[Verse 1: Young J]
Stay caught up in the bill
Never got caught in the system
All the shots give you chills
Down in the body, they missing
Going hard like a drill
Deep in the cave, it gets hidden
Watch out for the kill
Cause assassins always be feeling
Some type of way get the old games and change the way
With these old plays
Come face the name with those gold chains
And see who gets wrapped up like presents on Christmas day
Stay strapped so you ready to play
Watch out for the sneaky fade
Turn ya back watch the raid-
En come spark ya way
Classified docs in the safe
Massived rocks come dim the ray
As I go ballistic
Everybody wanna sing they say it’s mystic
Joolie on the come up she so artistic
Had to shout her out cause she so narcissistic
With her music you probably already missed it
Word flow I’m in the game sage mode it's cryptic
In ya head, you say oh no cause you a misfit
Rather stay on the low low than to diss kids
Slump god flow I’m in it to win it
Sinnin the synonyms been wishing to bend it
Also is so mean to be greedy to end it
Snapping on ya life like a story I’m here to present it

[Hook: Four Ivy]


[Verse 2: Young J]
Yeah let’s talk about it
Experience stay wildin
Conscious but not around them
How I feel
I want to kill
No pressure
Holding down signals with no antenna
Know my code by my bandanna
Changing just for one character
System so twisted
Got me pinned down just like a wrestler
Keep it scripted
Always end up prey and they the predator
Causing the chain to be the barrier
Wrapped in the lane with no cameras
Witnesses stay neutral to define the amateur
I'm not the political type
Why good music always gotta be hype
Meaning to say that if ain’t fire it’s lame
The motto I say in this game
Laid back but always so tense
Nerve crazy about what is next
Swerving the lady who double checks
Naming the babies who stay upset
Hating on the navy cause the waves aren’t met
Screw the waves and the trends
People try to blend
And escape from who they are because they friends
Try to put a image in they head
Or the media telling them what is good what is bad
What is hood and what’s the fash
Shun them if they don’t have
Judged by our own class

[Outro: Four Ivy]
Why do we all get tense?
Why I think it should end?
Why am I so tense?
Why can’t my life make sense?
