Own Advice Lyrics by J.Murph

Back for Growth

2018

[Verse 1]

L. a. k. e
Never knew where this lil' place would take me
On the way to greatness, what i been on lately?
Pat's production ain't no average nothing I been adding stuff
To my resume making better ways on forever waves
Never catch a wave levels I been levitating, taking
More risk that forever faith let em' say amen
Ion think its really is a better way
Better stay over there with the hatin'
Hate the cliche' but face it
It's a lot more of that than they got love attached
So I address where the buzzing at and give some loving back
Ain't nobody with that druggie rap
But I'm knowing where the plug is at
That's my bru in fact
Tryna' get em' off that thugging path
And put him on a different hustle that
Ain't fast but it don't leave
Ain't mad but I'm gon' speak
Steadfast in my own league
Only if they knew all the work that was on me
Ain't perfect Murphy just zoning in on where growth be
Surely but slowly, tryna' build what'll hold me
Sending different shots to the old me
And I watch real closely, holy

Chorus:
Tell the lil' homies all that I know is right
Gotta' start listening to my own advice
Jot it not to profit, but to prophecy
Hoping I can hold it down for all the guys, salt & light

Tell the lil' homies all that I know is right
Gotta' start listening to my own advice
Jot it not to profit, but to prophecy
Hoping I can hold it down for all the guys, salt & light

[Verse 2]

I'mma just pretend like you care enough
To wanna' share the love or pay attention
To what us say in writtens
Trust just ain't a given
The blankest image
Ain't just for painting pictures
Pain is what paints forgiveness
Complaints won't fix it can't forget this
Cause I gotta remind myself when no help really came with swiftness
Sunday's best Monday's worst
Tuesday's less Wednesday's curse
Thursday's test Friday's worth
Saturday's rest and I still feel hurt
Weak, from the damage done
You would think I really plan for some
Can't handle none of the things coming at me fastly
Man I gotta' stand for sumn'
Man time won't lie
Am I really getting stronger or am I gon' die
Inevitable demise at my own hands
Is you really on your grown man tryna' do it on your own can't
Get you where your tryna' go
That there have you climbing slow
Or falling fast, all of that
Can't have the rain without the thunder I guess
Been walking faith I start the way and he place under my steps
A solid ground to hold me down and keep me running my best
So I ain't gotta' even bother when it comes to the rest, yes

Chorus:
Tell the lil' homies all that I know is right
Gotta' start listening to my own advice
Jot it not to profit, but to prophecy
Hoping I can hold it down for all the guys, salt & light

Tell the lil' homies all that I know is right
Gotta' start listening to my own advice
Jot it not to profit, but to prophecy
Hoping I can hold it down for all the guys, salt & light


[Outro]
I always have to reflect on that though so I don't get comfortable when things get good, because it definitely is a possibility for that to happen
Cause' I know my tendencies
So...yea man
