Letters Lyrics by JID

2015

[Chorus: JID]
Get away, get away, get away
I pray to God cause I’m afraid to die, and never been afraid
And baby if I die today, it’d probably make me more a man
I tell ‘em get away, get away, get away
Cause baby if I die today, it’d probably make me more a man

[Verse 1: JID]
Yeah uh
I like to see it through my mind’s eye
I couldn’t view it from the thoughts of a like mind
I like mine and likewise
Every atom or Adam and Eve that breathe matter
Chatter I seen most definitely like Yasiin
Long, dark roads we travel higher than high speed
Cut off them high beams
Baby I got weed
I ain’t gon’ kill us cause we in Heaven
Don’t look up, close your eyes when you jump
Use your mind when you flyin’
Dodgin’ ducks and duck

[Bridge: Mereba, 6LACK, Both]
If you stay
Then you choose Fate
I don’t want you to try
Cause I don’t want you to die
Like me, like me
Like me, like me, like me
Like me, like me
Like me, like me, like me
Like me, like me, like me
No, no, no, no

[Chorus: JID]
So get away, get away, get away
I pray to God cause I’m afraid to die, and never been afraid
And baby if I die today, it’d probably make me more a man
I tell ‘em get away, get away, get away
Cause baby if I die today, it’d probably make me more a man

[Verse 2: Mereba]
Good God, there are Angels flyin’ over head
But there are demons in my bed
And all of us will run out of time
But they say everything, everything will expire

[Chorus: JID]
So get away, get away, get away
I pray to God cause I’m afraid to die, and never been afraid
And baby if I die today, it’d probably make me more a man
I tell ‘em get away, get away, get away
Cause baby if I die today, it’d probably make me more a man

[Verse 3: PELL]
Right
I made a valid life
Bet I won’t live this shit
Yeah she a bitch, but her cousin have you in a ditch
Six feet deep, when I came on a bih
Couple past-due bills, check ain’t come in for a week
Would love to call my parents, but I’m on my own feet
And they run into them dollars even when the road steep
Look at me, complainin’ ‘bout shit that ain’t my problem
Half of them new mistakes came from strangers that I brought in
Be cautious of the weeds that you keep inside your garden
Cause the moment that you bloom
They gon’ block your shine with darkness
Shots that they took left a stain
But it’s burned a n**** rug and I’m vacuuming the carpet
I’m off it
Damn, I guess I flow the way off from the topic
Too hot for my enemies, but too low to be heavenly
I hope the Lord forgivin’ me
I seen a different life through these lines
I guess I blame it on the times, yeah

[Chorus: JID]
So get away, get away, get away
I pray to God cause I’m afraid to die, and never been afraid
And baby if I die today, it’d probably make me more a man
I tell ‘em get away, get away, get away
Cause baby if I die today, it’d probably make me more a man
