got bills - lyric jones lyrics

(intro)

yeah it’s funny…
i remember being on my knees begging god for a job
like lord i just need a steady income to get myself together you know
and then just ….
don’t want it anymore…..

chorus:
been on my vision for so long (so long)
working hard for the dream
stand by flights and open mics
tryna shine by any means
on my own, gotta keep the lights on (keep the lights )
got these credit cards, rent and student loans
just wanna make a living with my p-ssion but still
i gotta pay these bills (i gotta, i gotta, i gotta)
yeah, yeah (i gotta, i gotta)
gotta pay these bills
(oh yeah yeah yeah)

verse 1
september 1st
head to the gig like any normal day
the past two weeks i had to marinate
time for that leap of faith
battling the definition of courageous
i’m not a stranger
to taking risks, but sh-t i’ve been from state to state
each move was major
payne and many favors
the almighty make no mistakes
but now i’m at point of undertake
wrestling stability, food on my plate
all this on the mental, as i packed up my cubicle, not once sentimental
it was beautiful
my ride home thinking bout how sh-t just got real
been tryna make it in this music
‘least 10 years
all my peers found a way to make they dreams a career
just been taking strides to be like those i revere
my music always sincere
even through growth
gemini creative
cut from same cloth of pac, biggie and prince
lyric jones next on the list
iconic, but she paid dues
therapeutic bars for those who walk in my same shoes

chorus:
been on my vision for so long (so long)
working hard for the dream (for the dream, for the dream)
stand by flights and open mics
tryna shine by any means (tryna shine on em)
on my own, gotta keep the lights on (keep the lights )
got these credit cards, rent and student loans
just wanna make a living with my p-ssion but still (gotta pay those)
i gotta pay these bills (i gotta, i gotta, i gotta)
yeah, yeah (i gotta, i gotta, i gotta)
i gotta pay these bills (i gotta, i gotta, i gotta)
yeah (i gotta, i gotta, i gotta)
i gotta pay these bills (i gotta, i gotta)
lord knows that we all got bills (dwp)
i gotta pay these bills

v2
(man, sh-t)

it’s frustrating when you know for fact that you ill
telling myself to keep going, it’s all in his will
decade plus, haven’t profited yet
always an investment
ready to cash some checks
throwing my own shows, couple albums, so now i got questions
minor resentment
just tryna keep the joy
ain’t even writing as much
now that i quit the 9-5
i can get back touch
2nd wind, lightbulb cl!ck
affirmations on my post its
atl & beantown home sick
more than ever
became a women thanks to my endeavors
wondering if college was a waste or whatever
chasing degrees for the bread
shuffled my deck, with no more desks
but still gotta find a way pay to the rent
quest

outro:
been on my vision for so long (so long)
working hard for the dream
stand by flights and open mics
tryna shine by any means
on my own, gotta keep the lights on
got these credit cards, rent and student loans
just wanna make a living with my p-ssion but still
