Pax Romana Lyrics by Josh Cortes

Rome (Deluxe)

2022

[Intro]
Yeah, just want to give a shout-out to EnvyRBeats man
Yeah yo, 'Bless, turn my voice up a little bit man

[Verse]
Yeah, nightmares about my deepest secrets out
Too much time inside the crib, it's time to leave the house
I want to wrap my hands around a girl that I been thinkin' about
I'm at a distance, and I wish that I was really more around
But, when we're together, thinkin' that "she mine? damn she a lil gangsta"
And thinkin' "fam, I'm an inch away from losing it"
Time kept slippin', now I watch the way I use it
I put my fuckin' heart and soul into this music
And they come in flocks, fries with a number two, damn he's the smoothest
The girls I talk to want the truth from me directly
But I tell them in my music, it's an awful way to do it
I would like to find love fore' my time is up
Don't get me wrong, I know I'm young but I ain't trynna rush, it just seems nice
But it's tough when nobody matches up to the hype
Or really are the way they seem like
So sad Mac Miller died, the man had so much love
And damn what a great person that he was
First person to say how hurt the way he was
It stuck with me then and it still does
At times, it feels like the end times, I feel like I'm gon get everything I want in time
But will it be in time? my momma lost her mind and her life at the same time
She's an angel now, so everything's fine?
Quite the opposite, I'm a skeptic but I'm still quite the optimist
Imma try to change my ways till I do not exist, I'm hoping for more time
In fact, a lot of it

[Outro]
"I thought of taking my life, ummm
It was the hardest thing (time)
I've ever been through (I'm hoping for more time)
But my loved ones, they still have to deal with the life that they are living
And they still have to deal with the pain of living on this earth
And I'll be damned (time)
If it's because of me (I'm hoping for more time and yes, a lot of it, uh)
So, if I ever ever leave this planet, It'll be knowing that like my family is ok
And they will always be happy
And umm, that ain't happening for sixty-something years
So, I'm going to be around for a while"
