jake snyder - along the way lyrics

[intro]
(hidden within each of us is not only the capacity to love and hate
but to take that final step to be
not only a creator
but a destroyer
a mad, unreasoning k!ller)
yeah
jake
yeah
aye
along the way
yeah
yeah
along the way
yeah
aye
along the way

[verse 1]
some people told me to cut it, the rest said i’m crazy to throw it away
some people told me i needed to switch my direction, i’m starting to fade
i was just thinking that maybe if i tune ‘em out, i could finally think
but f+ck it, i know in the end, thеre ain’t no one but me that’s insidе of my brain
i done seen so many people that’s close to me switch up and leave
now they’re fading away
i done grew up, became a new person, and changed my approach
ain’t sh+t you could say
back when was i still developing, i had to hurdle the obstacles blocking the way
just stretching out the legs
going through the growing pains
cl+stered diamonds ‘round the pendant
no rocks on the chain
what was that you was saying homie?
f+ck outta my face
i’m done playing with you dummies
y’all not in my lane
three bands on the outfit and i’m practically still naked
listen
i don’t buy sh+t for attention
this lifestyle gets reckless
it seems like rappers dying every month man
this sh+t is changing my perspective
give a f+ck about a guest list
i’m just counting all the blessings
sh+t, i used to go try and impress ‘em
but now, i’m just leaving impressions
[chorus]
i wouldn’t be human if i didn’t fail
wouldn’t be jake, if i quit and bailed
wouldn’t be putting all of my time in if i didn’t plan to raise h+ll
wouldn’t bounced back from them l’s
wouldn’t have practiced and excelled
wouldn’t have cashed in on myself and put my past back on the shelf
along the way
i’ve seen people love and i’ve seen people hate
i’ve seen people throw their life away for money and the fame
the brain should control the heart
so why’s mine control the brain?
don’t even know who to blame
put profit over the pain
along the way

[interlude]
(this is a breathtaking pace
and such a pace cannot help but create new ills
as it dispels old
new ignorance, new problems)

[verse 2]
keep moving forward, got no time to waste
nothing to lose, so much to gain
they gone act like they love you and lie to your face
just ‘cause they hate to see you doing great
i don’t even think about it like i’m trained
everything’s finally falling in place
the “determining factor”, go tell ‘em my name
219 indiana, i was raised
i was fifteen working minimum wage
hit up the studio when i got paid
book a four hour session, it turn into eight
i would be d+mned if i wasted a day
you think you f+cking with me?
you’re a lame
so far behind that you don’t even place
i’m just getting this money and smoking this dank
when they hear this sh+t, they gone feel the tension
this music’s my b+tch and i think that she’s pregnant
i remember when i used to write the whole album without ever hearing my voice on a record
i built this sh+t on my own, no incentive
they told me i need to go work on my presence
i just be working on heading to heaven ‘cause you never know if somebody’s gone take it from you any second
[chorus]
i wouldn’t be human if i didn’t fail
wouldn’t be jake, if i quit and bailed
wouldn’t be putting all of my time in if i didn’t plan to raise h+ll
wouldn’t bounced back from them l’s
wouldn’t have practiced and excelled
wouldn’t have cashed in on myself and put my past back on the shelf
along the way
i’ve seen people love and i’ve seen people hate
i’ve seen people throw their life away for money and the fame
the brain should control the heart
so why’s mine control the brain?
don’t even know who to blame
put profit over the pain
along the way
i’ve seen people love and i’ve seen people hate
i’ve seen people throw their life away for money and the fame
the brain should control the heart
so why’s mine control the brain?
don’t even know who to blame
put profit over the pain
along the way

[outro]
along the way
along the way
