FIND YOUR WINGS

[Intro]
[Verse]
See when I make shit I create bits of hope
To plaster onto bonds that’s broken in scattered notes
My creativity is all I got for me to breathe
I pray it never leaves me in what feels like everything does
But I know it’s in my fate to succeed
I simply have to be
The greatest of all time I mean
This a competitive race
Most days I’m feeling enraged
But I am love and that thought is something I can’t escape
And I don’t mean I’m in it
I mean I am it
This is my point of view
My truth is panoramic
And I did not mean to damage any beats that I tarnish
Boy I promise
I’m the hardest
Kinda godly or a monster
Like Minaj and yet
I’ll never stop for profit
I cannot face the gossip
Fuck Instagram comments
Imma rap until I vomit
I'm a comet with no harness
I’m the slickest with no varnish
I’m an angelic godsend
I had to let go of all these problems in my noggin
I been looking for the sky
But the key is hard to find in the basement in your mind
And I could talk about my problems all the motherfucking time
Or I could let my light shine
I was born in the darkness
But my shadow was a window to the world I haven’t started
But it's meant for me I’m honest
Made my momma a promise
I would give back a milli to my nana and poppa
So there’s no holding back
I’ll fucking get it how I wanna
[Chorus]
Everything I say I will happen
Got 'em tearing at the seams
I ain’t following my dreams
They need to keep up with me
Everything I say will happen
Manifesting everything
Bitch, I do not give a fuck
I just tell these kids
Find your wings
Motherfucker, find your wings
Find your wings
Motherfucker, find your wings
Find your wings
Motherfucker, find your wings
You gon' watch me fly I can do anything
Ca-cause everything I say I will happen
Got 'em tearing at the seams
I ain’t following my dreams
They need to keep up with me
Everything I say will happen
Manifesting everything
Bitch, I do not give a fuck
I just tell these kids
Find your wings
Motherfucker, find your wings
Find your wings
Motherfucker, find your wings
Find your wings
Motherfucker, find your wings
You gon' watch me fly I can do anything
[Outro]

SAVE YOURSELF
01:42
|
|||
Sometimes I’m feeling like I’m set up
They told me not to get up
I feel like 2Pac when I keep my fucking head up
As a kid I never said much
Never showed up for that shared lunch
But when I fucking make it, it’s my plate they gonna tear from
And I knew from the beginning that’s how it was gonna be
What I didn’t know is most the time it’s hard for me to breathe
See I kept my mouth shut
I done felt like Claude speed
Always tried to be a Goodie like I’m Billy Oddie
Probably a problem child that didn’t know how to show it
Acting like a daft punk when it came to my emotions
To be Frank like the ocean
I got stories that’s endless
But they all revolve around a broken heart unmended
I done came out suspensions
I’m the one who ascended
But I hit the fucking earth and probably broke a few tendons
And mentally, I been on a bender
But do not get me wrong, I ain’t here for long
I will not be a pretender
I look into my past and I’m surprised I ain’t in heaven or hell
Just to wake up and be alive feels like I’ve broken the spell
I beat my way through all these battles with a tale to tell
So call me Kenny but not many wanna see me prevail
So watch me scribe through emotions
Shit I might die as a poet
Feel like dying like I’m Carti
But I don’t play boy I’m focused
I change the hue of these photos
Do the shit you’d never notice
Prodigy of the next POTUS
You know, the one who made ‘Otis’
Huh, fuck
Save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself
They told me to save myself
Save myself
But I never fucking listen
Give a fuck bout how you felt
Yeah, uh
Save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself
They told me to save myself
Save myself
I gotta find my way out
Shit I think I need some help

[Verse 1]
Aye,
I be that STEEZY motherfucker
Capital JJ if you don't know the name
I been with my brothers
I been chilling with the fucking gang
I stay navigating, contemplating life through all the pain
They still think that I'm insane
They still know that I'm insane
Never play no games with all you lames, this is not GTA
Rappers like they CJ because all they do is follow trains of hype
Rap my vice, all these verses, this my life
I been making art for years
Imma rap until I die
[Chorus]
I been in this shit for years
Motherfuckers just don't get it (get it)
Any style that you want me in
You know that I'll be with it
I been in this shit for years
Motherfuckers just don't get it (get it)
Any style that you want me in
You know that I'll be with it
'cause I'm back in this motherfucker like I never left
But you act like a motherfucker faked his own death
I could rap circles 'round ya while you taking baby steps
I ain't coming for the crown, I'm coming for they whole head
[Verse 2]
I been like this for a minute but now they want me dead
I'm taking shots (DOOT, DOOT, DOOT) I'm spitting lyrical lead
'cause I'm a leader, fucking genius, I ain't hear what you said
Must've had my headphones in, music stay loud but it's clear
That I do this shit for the love, you make that shit for the bread
But g I do not give a fuck but you do and it's sad
'cause you need that validation, self centred like masturbation
W-when this nation hears me clearly I'll run shit like I'm pres
Aye, identity you ain't got
Bitch you been chasing the clout
But you gon' end up with the mop
They thinking that I forgot
Forgot that I gotta snap on everyone taking shots
Fuck yo chats
Know my brothers got my back
Know my sisters got my back
I got the strength of my mother
But I'm a fine brother so you know Imma react
I spent a whole year depressed
I didn't know what was left
Now I got all these friends
My team fabulous like Kitty0706 but
Imma keep going 'til I really really made it
I don't care about your playlist
I don't wanna be your favourite
Child of God but a product of Satan
Yuh!
[Chorus]
I been in this shit for years
Motherfuckers just don't get it (get it)
Any style that you want me in
You know that I'll be with it
I been in this shit for years
Motherfuckers just don't get it (get it)
Any style that you want me in
You know that I'll be with it
I been in this shit for years
Motherfuckers just don't get it (get it)
Any style that you want me in
You know that I'll be with it
I been in this shit for years
Motherfuckers just don't get it (get it)
Any style that you want me in
You know that I'll be with it
'cause I'm back in this motherfucker like I never left
But you act like a motherfucker faked his own death
I could rap circles 'round ya while you taking baby steps
I ain't coming for the crown, I'm coming for they whole head

JESUS feat. Indy Skies

[Verse 1: JJ Shadow]
Jesus
Why they always tryna throw me in the deep end
Am I gonna try to kill you? Well it depends
Me, myself and I, those my three friends
We demons
We stay creepin’
You can call me Thom Yorke
Carry my pain I been feeling like Björk
They been afraid of what I’m gonna say
I’m an unhinged fuck, can’t contain these thoughts
You would be scared if you seen these notes
19 years and I’m still seeing ghosts
Crying these tears, bitch I ain’t no joke
But I ain’t gone pop so you might get smoked
Who am I kidding
I’m just complaining
I’m underground but I wish I was famous
I’d sell my soul to the devil, I’m shameless
But I am the truth even when I fake it
[Verse 2: Indy Skies]
Funny how you bitches act like angels for the gram
Fakest shit I’ve ever seen, got knives with your name in my bag
I can’t take it, won’t fake it
Have to leave the group if I make it
Don’t come and say that you’re proud of me when you never supported
This is passion on fire
If you don’t feel it, you lying
Me and my clique stay the realest
Up in the function, we flying
Cut through the noise, left and right
Blazing a trail of light
To keep our demons in the dark
We making music all night
(BAH, BAH, BAH!)
You think you’re hard? You’re a penis
Cocky for no damn reason
This ain’t hate, this is revenge
I’m not the one to be messed with
Bitch the fuck, you ain’t Jesus
Your act is hella misleading
I’mma feed you to the tigers and release all their leashes

TRUST NOBODY!

[Verse 1]
Are they really rolling, are they rolling with me?
Or will they infiltrate my mind and try controlling my dreams?
G, I been in my head so long now I can longer see
What’s right in front of me, it’s funny how they hide behind screens
Sometimes I notice how I struggle tryna keep it together
I feel my heart and mind in constant tug of war with each other
But I never wanna say the words forever 'cause uncertainty settles
All of the pains in my soul
Tryna keep myself in control
But I never wanna hurt another one because my circle is small
Shit, I have better conversations when I talk to the walls
I don’t know if a single person understands me at all
You like to stand with me so tall but you never even there when I fall?
Boy, I thought you said that you was gon' be there til' the end
But I didn’t know that fakeness could be so creative
I’m just sitting here alone while you rolling with them
But I don't need no friends
You'll never see me again
[Chorus]
Cause I don't trust no man
I don't trust no bitch
I don't trust anybody that ain’t give me shit
I don't trust nobody
I don't trust nobody
I don't trust nobody
You can’t fuck with anybody
I don't trust no man that ain’t give me shit
I don't trust no woman that treat me like a bitch
I don't trust nobody
I don't trust nobody
I don't trust nobody
You can’t fuck with anybody
[Sample]
Fuck all dem hoes who wanna talk that shit
Fuck all dem
Fuck all dem hoes
Fuck all dem hoes
Fuck all dem
[Verse 2]
I’ve been feeling odd
I don’t need a God
As of lately I've been contemplating suicide
I thought you was ride or die
I’m the sacrifice
Can’t stick around I do not handle lies
I remember when I was young my father body shamed me
When I look in the mirror I realise how much that changed me
You thought you’d get away with what you said on Instagram, b
Just know I’m coming for you if you try to claim my family
[Chorus]
Cause I don't trust no man
I don't trust no bitch
I don't trust anybody that ain’t give me shit
I don't trust nobody
I don't trust nobody
I don't trust nobody
You can’t fuck with anybody
I don't trust no man that ain’t give me shit
I don't trust no woman that treat me like a bitch
I don't trust nobody
I don't trust nobody
I don't trust nobody
You can’t fuck with anybody
[Sample]
Fuck all dem hoes who wanna talk that shit
Fuck all dem
Fuck all dem hoes
Fuck all dem hoes
Fuck all dem
[Outro]
Fuck 'em

Fuck your life
Shove my face in the mud

I been fucked
Cause I never felt love
Know my place
I’m not safe
I am not fucking okay
Fuck your feelings
Fuck your face
Fuck your life
Fuck your life
Fuck everything

I wanna feel how I feel when I’m asleep
I wanna feel how I feel when I’m asleep
I wanna feel how I fucking feel asleep

FALLEN ANGEL
02:42
|
|||
I’ve been tryna find peace in my own mind
These drugs don’t work for me I need a new high
Why don’t you tell me what you see when you close eyes?
Cause I’ve been dreaming of my destiny my whole life
And I’ve been locked away, I’ve been covered in the shadows
I’ve been screaming at the top of my lungs, fighting a battle
Felt defeated ever since I was young
Your shit is shallow
You don’t listen so you just call me dumb
But fuck it now is not the time to waste
I’m 3 albums in and it’s just a taste
Of everything I’ve got in me
A prodigy from outer space
But I’m down to earth and it hurts cause I feel out of place
But I know my truth so you can say that to my fucking face
Yeah I’ve been lost and I’ve made mistakes
My high’s gone and time stopped, I might be erased
From history cause his story is something great
But then I realised that the fuel is every L I take
So you can never take my fucking drive away from me
And every single time you tried to take my light well wait and see
JJ Shadow been waiting in the dark patiently
And when you see me next
I’ll be higher than the angels be
Yuh
Album 4 on the way
And I still can’t afford therapy
It’s JJ Shadow
Motherfucker

[Verse]
Recently I've been working on my intentions
In this year of invention
I’mma travel across dimensions
I’ve ascended to a higher plane
So when I die, this what you play
If you ask where JJ’s been?
I’ve been chilling ‘round Heaven’s gates
I still got the power in me you could call me Kevin- wait
We still got the power in us I been feeling like I’m Ye
Life was never eazy, when you see me, I get stuck in brain
Been tryna claw my way out of the shackles that I’ve put in place
Upon myself
Used to fuck with nobody else
I’ve been learning to accept the reality I was dealt
But I’ll never let go of that unrealistic dream
Of changing the fucking world with these MP3s
And in a little while you gonna see
What I’ve been working on
Hurt so many people in my life I’m tryna right my wrongs
So if I write them out and jot them down into a fucking song
Maybe I could be there for that inner child before I’m gone
Spent the past year manifesting my destinies
Through hard work I’ve been churning out a legacy
This year we making noise for real
I’m giving y’all the best of me
I’ll give you fuckers everything until there’s nothing left of me
I’m still at uni bro, I ain’t know what I’m doing
But I use it as a crutch so I can pursue all this music
At times I feel so useless but I’ll make myself useful
We tryna make a future out of beats on a computer
I’ve always had the drive in me
I’ve always been in beast mode
But I still ain’t got a license unlike 'livia Rodrigo
In 2021, shit, I always felt so evil
Cause I had my mistakes thrown in my face by some people
But I’ll never help myself if I victimize myself through lyrics
I’m tryna make vibrations that’ll be there for your spirit
I've gotta come down from the world in my mind that I’ve lived in
Even if that means I fucking crash land on you bitches
Yuh!
[Outro]
Ayo, I just wanna say, um
Thank you all for listening
Uh
New shit coming soon
JJ Shadow, bitch
Get fucked
