Graveyard Shifts Lyrics by J.Wise

2019

Worked graveyard shifts to pay for stu time
While my friends were in school, I learned to spew rhymes
I set my goals and continue to pursue mine
It got the haters sick like they caught the flu, swine
They did it for the vine, now they do it for the gram
I do this for me and mine, I do this for the fam
For hoes ain't got no time likes there's no watch above my hand, but put my hands together to thank the Creator of this land
I'm sticking to my plans, and hopeful I'll find a way
I've been through the darkness now I look forward to brighter days
Praying to God, knowing God will light the way, but for now I'll light this jay, and let my thoughts circulate
Blood flowing through my veins thinking 'bout the pearly gates of Heaven
While I feel the fire and heat of the Devil's presence
Almost died in 2018 and I don't regret it, cause the biggest L's can teach you the greatest Lessons;
That's if you let it take place; society tries to box us in like MJ 8's
Think outside the box like you're heading to first base
Because outside the box is where you'll find the home plate
And I say grace even when there's no food on the table;
But I'll get the dough and make the bread, no bagels
Ain't got time for games but with my words I'm playful
You played me but I'm grateful, I learned from betrayal that
What you give me doesn't determine what I give you;
I give you my all, you gave me some issues
I give you my heart and you turned it to an igloo
So I don't know why I still miss you and won't forget you
But nowadays, I give without expectations
I'm working on those issues that I was previously saying that you gave me, but now I understand it was myself cause I changed me
Nowadays I don't let just anything phase me
Nowadays I speak to God daily
So miss me with the negativity, I'm blessed with the ability to perceive differently
Its J. W-i-s-e
