jordan taylor - ink on it lyrics

jordan taylor (verse 1)

i write because it’s proven through this hip hop music/
overcomers need a theme song that they can move with/
the anthem of the streets crossed over to the burbs/
how feelings and emotions get expressed through these words/
mnemonic devices, you twice as likely to feel it/
all up on the mic how it’s rhyming at the ending/
i seen it move crowds when the speakers is loud/
the kind of flow that i have a rebel wanna revolt now/
what else you know influencing way that i dress/
to the reason i rep my city to my death/
there ain’t too many cultures that this ain’t touch/
rock and roll came close, but not like us/
the ink of life’s moments over 16 bars/
plus half of that on the hook the melody takes charge/
i write like auto tune won’t even last that long/
when little kids on candy rap start begging for songs/
you looking for content, we’ll be standing there waiting/
i write with the reality that rap can’t save ‘em/
but the sacrificial death of the famous/
most hated, grave raising could trade places/
every nation, could get it how he lived it/
given from the father, it’s the son, by the spirit/
i’ve been affected by the 1 and i trust him/
if i don’t write that, brotha, i don’t write nothing/

katie eckerberger (hook)

a thousand tongues, heart beat as one/
we cannot hold it in/
this word like fire in our bones/
we live to ink on it/

omri: (verse 2)

i write like jesus is coming back before this verse finish/
like if he don’t, he might use it to convert cynics/
like he ain’t doing through my music what the church isn’t/
i’m just a speechwriter for her while she’s earth’s witness/
from the drudgery of shaping the first lyric/
i should be humbled in dust, making a verse vicious/
but they keep pumping me up, saying, “you’re sure gifted.”/
so i keep company bruh, they are my worst critics/
i believe i was conceived as a cursed infant/
whose mockery god would see as the worst listed/
in hostile beef, robbed of peace, not concerned with it/
but god would bleed abolishing the absurd distance/
so i write it so you’ll hear a joyful, bitter song/
like the face i long to see is the same one i spit upon/
can’t we get along? (no.)/
there’s children of wrath on a path to where they’ll never see a winter dawn/
so i write it like a man with a hope deferred/
and one who got married to a woman who i don’t deserve/
holding to his spoken word, pressing toward the finish and/
stretching your attention span, blessing loyal and fickle fans/
i’m trying to make my words heard in this brief moment/
my deep motive has never been a steep bonus/
i’ll keep going, going in, putting ink on it/
praying that you take time to think on it/

katie eckerberger (verse 3)

after all these years and all these tears/
all these joys and all these fears/
you have never left my heart/
i can’t regret, i can’t slow down/
my life will be a joyful sound/
so they know how beautiful you are/
