jay young – red velvet cake (pound cake remix) lyrics

[intro]
don’t mind me, i’m just ramblin’
look

[verse 1]
once i had a dog, man it died
my n-gga taken from me, broke me on the inside
tears streaming down my face, rolling off my cheek
at 10 years old, my life stays bleak
moving out the house i been in my entire life
those the type of scars that never fade, they stay inside
that’s the kind of sh-t that my dad put me through
i ain’t complaining, i’m just saying everything you brew
momma holding down the fort, she made it on her own
i just hope she finds and keeps the strength to hold her own
cuz we out here in the cold while the wind is blown
sitting by, waiting for a ringing phone
unemployed teen with a bill and money problem
what else am i to do, except go out and get these dollars
even if i slave out in the hot sun
it ain’t over until the deed is done
that’s my mentality, since i was sixteen
when i put the pen to pad and wrote my first sixteen
i mix stupidity with lyricism, that’s my gimmick
if it means my family don’t starve, i’m all up in it
cuz no experience means i’m not a good buy
for these employers, so all i hear is goodbye
and my mom could have been at the hospital
working on the career that she had studied for
but that’s what happens when you marry someone that’s not logical
they drag you down and hold you back, make that sh-t improbable
sh-t is something outta mission impossible
because life makes you feel smaller than a particle
we spent many nights crying in each other’s arms
i wish i had the power to block my mom from harm
i wish that i could just go back in time
and stop her from making that mistake in life
even if it meant i would not exist
at least something good would come out of it
it’s a lot more than a life crisis
i wanna ride in 300 chryslers
mo’ money, mo’ problems, no money, still a problem
n versus np, can’t solve ’em
and they tell me trust in god, but you can keep your faith
that kind of trust is broad, i need something more straight
jesus wanna take the wheel, can’t let him tho
my n-gga, they didn’t have cars back when you was born
so how i’m gonna let you steer my life for me
this is something that i have to do
hoping that i find my place on earth someday
tryna wash off things that will never go away
tryna move on from the past and live another day
i wanna let go of the rage inside of me
but i can feel it burning in my chest
all these feelings causing me stress
sometimes, man, i feel it’s for the best
that i’m alone in the world with no next
i’m afraid that my father is what i’ll become
before that happens, i’ll rest my temple on a gun
and just cl!ck, clack, bang! have it all done
end of the line, that’s the final one
to walk this earth, lay in dirt
that’s what i’mma do
if worse comes to worse, my only avenue
but don’t mind me, i’m just ramblin’
take it as a precaution that i’m gambling’ with
i am just venting, don’t take sh-t to heart
just my mind feels like about to part
all i’m asking from the sky is for a fresh start
until then, i’ll just talk to y’all with my art
young
