Waves Lyrics by Jo-Kim

Made for This

2019

(Beat Intro)

Verse 1:

It was about a year ago
I never planned to be so lyrical
At age 15 I was a walking miracle flows on top of flows the timing was so impeccable
Now you can sit and watch as I'm reaching my pinnacle a classic!

They couldn't fiddle with this rap shit
I let the metaphors hover they couldn't catch it clearly these whack rappers had you people distracted
Until I hopped on the mic and they called it magic

I promise there ain't a trick up my sleeve do what you wanna do
But clearly rapping ain't what you was born to do
Got to grippin' the pen and paper because I wanted to
Paint the vision so you could picture a different chronicle

Every direction servin' 'em hooks like Mike Tyson, Mohammed Ali when I swing I spark lightning
Reaching different heights and I did it without a hype man
Jealousy in the air ooh they tryna block my lights man

People sayin' if i wanna make it I should call them
Everybody wanna be the plug thats the problem
They like when you make it we ballin like James Harden
And I be on the phone like ooh I beg your pardon

Given the current situation man you're mistaken if its my time you think you wasting man
The more I get better the more I got you hatin' man
You can't sleep on me I got you wide awaken man I got you wide awaken

Hook:

You and I are not the same but
You did not believe me
You did not believe me
When i said that
You and I are not the same but
You did not believe me
You did not believe me, leave me

They wanna know what we doin'
They wanna get in the way
They want control of the music
They wanna ride on my wave

They wanna know what we doin'
They wanna get in the way
They want control of the music
They wanna ride on my wave

Verse 2:

Yo, the future's now the time is finally upon us
I can feel the envy dawg I feel it in the atmosphere these hatin' niggas tickle me silly Im being honest
Matter of fact I'm here to be the reason why you rappers fear

Its time again, and your career is on the line again my appetite for greatness crazy I'm ready to dine again
Rappin after hours mama thinks I'm out my mind again
I raised the bar, while you niggas were sippin' Heineken

We in the game where niggas tryna get their dollars up and ******* feel the need to be walking with their collars up
Posted at performances I seen 'em tryna follow us we been shinin'
But now they feel like they could polish us

It's very crucial, how you can make a decision based on whats on the surface open your eyes question your purpose
Feel like Kyrie (Irving!!)
Coz when I move I break ankles niggas couldn't cross the rock man all they got is twitter handles

Man you couldn't begin to paint a picture of what Im handlin'
You'll never understand, its prolly gone sound like Mandarin
My uncle asked me boy you wanna be rappin for a livin?
He looked me in my eyes and sat me down we had a man to man

He said I hope your decisions will make you smarter, and bear in mind that every moment be gettin' harder

I told him yo I gotta get this money for my mom and them
Im destined to fly my head in the sky
