Juno - Juno Lyrics

He used to stay down, he used to cry
Walking with a frown, y'all wondered why
Jay was in his head replaying the tape
He knew he had the key, yet he couldn't escape
For years suicide was on his mind
I'm glad he couldn't do it, he faced the music
'Cause if he held it longer we'd never have this
Work of art 'cause J'uno would never exist
I ain't always happy to look in the mirror
Caught in 4k my symptoms are clearer
A long way from birth, my death getting nearer
Before I leave this earth just make me a winner
Born to be king yet born a sinner
My pockets getting fatter, my patience is thinner
Scrolling through the gram and tapping on pictures
Even though ion give a damn what you eating for dinner
Esko had a baby off love from the past
Skarface found a wifey and having a blast
Hendrikks bossed up, he been watching the markets
If Ace set the pace, how they moving so fast?
But life ain't a race, it's more of a journey
What other niggas doing, it shouldn't concern me
I lost out on some youth as the man of the house
Damn ain't that the truth, I grew up too early
He used to stay down, he used to cry
Walking with a frown, y'all wondered why
Jay was in his head replaying the tape
He knew he had the key, yet he couldn't escape
For years suicide was on his mind
I'm glad he couldn't do it, he faced the music
'Cause if he held it longer we'd never have this
Work of art 'cause J'uno would never exist
Imagine if we never had seen the plot twist
I would've been a ghost with a slit on my wrist
I would've been a ghost with a noose on my neck
I really was a wreck, how am I bossing like this?
Everyday struggle just part of the story
I wouldn't have it different the blissful ones bore me
Every now and then I wonder if I hadn't tried to end the game too soon would I still have my pride?
It's hard to be proud without coming from something
It's easy when you level to something from nothing
But check me out now, pretty soon I'll be stunting
Never giving up, 4th down I ain't punting
Take me for example, but I'm not an idol
Church up in these verses, rewriting the Bible
It's crazy what I'm able to do with a pen
I don't mean to be rude, but I'm shitting again
I used to stay down, I used to cry
Walking with a frown, y'all wondered why
Jay was in his head replaying the tape
I knew I had the key, yet I couldn't escape
For years suicide was on my mind
I'm glad I couldn't do it, I faced the music
'Cause if I held it longer we'd never have this
Work of art 'cause J'uno would never exist

He used to stay down, he used to cry
Walking with a frown, y'all wondered why
Jay was in his head replaying the tape
He knew he had the key, yet he couldn't escape
For years suicide was on his mind
I'm glad he couldn't do it, he faced the music
'Cause if he held it longer we'd never have this
Work of art 'cause J'uno would never exist
I ain't always happy to look in the mirror
Caught in 4k my symptoms are clearer
A long way from birth, my death getting nearer
Before I leave this earth just make me a winner
Born to be king yet born a sinner
My pockets getting fatter, my patience is thinner
Scrolling through the gram and tapping on pictures
Even though ion give a damn what you eating for dinner
Esko had a baby off love from the past
