Voices

[Intro] x3

I got these voices in my ear, yea I got these voices in my ear

[Verse 1]

Wake up to the sound of a million horns

Jesus piece, ruby red, diamond in the thorns

Say a prayer for the jammed and the one that's gone

I might've missed my nigga wake but still I mourn

Did it big in the club with my cash out

But dealing with a lot so I drunk until I passed out

Went abroad, I met a broad with her ass out

Her concern was to earn like "nigga, what your cash 'bout?"

In the VIP on my tip with a glass out

We live a paparazzi life, what's your flash 'bout?

In a mattress in the ceiling, what's your stash 'bout?

In case I had doubts

[Hook]

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me get up, get up, get up

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me wake up, wake up, wake up

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me keep runnin', keep runnin', keep runnin'

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me get money, get money, get money

Breathe

[Verse 2]

What if a dream was all you had?

And life ain't fab, you can't throw it in the bag

Niggas ain't real, hoes ain't shit

My hand-me-downs was too big, they buying clothes that don't fit

I'm like, it was more than fame and the credit

Feeling like my whole life I've been trying to be the freshest

Respected, in a world full of kings

You pathetic, if you can't buy the finer things, before you exit

The very moment that you got it: "I swear my biggest fear is that I'll die nobody"

Forgotten, when I was really at my best

Seems like nothing left

[Hook]

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me get up, get up, get up

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me wake up, wake up, wake up

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me keep runnin', keep runnin', keep runnin'

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me get money, get money, get money

Breathe

[Verse 3]

Lately I've been feeling like fuck it

Heaven's in my face, but Lord knows I can't touch it

Plus I heard the angel wings was kinda heavy

Scared to put 'em on my back so I threw 'em on a Chevy

Death knocking on my door, I can get it

Looking through the peephole in case I ain't ready

Fuck this rap shit, yeah I said it

On the road to the riches ain't no telling where I'm heading

Now I dread it, world ain't what it seems

Enduring all the shit to be king

Praying for tomorrow, there's more time to borrow

Scared, aware, they whisper "never fear"

[Hook]

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me get up, get up, get up

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me wake up, wake up, wake up

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me keep runnin', keep runnin', keep runnin'

I got these voices in my ear

They tell me get money, get money, get money

Breathe

[Outro]

Man 1 - My life today? Hmm... more volatile than ever. This last year alone I've been shot down, bloodied, trampled, accused, threatened, disgraced, betrayed, scandalized, maligned, tough? You bet your ass it is, but I ain't leaving, nothing comes easy

Man 2 - The last question - is it truly worth it?

Man 1 - Sure, you know why? I love what I do, I pray for people and when you think of most of your work in life, most of people's lives are spent on endeavors. And very few people really enjoy what they do and I love what I do, so yeah, it's worth it, damn right it's worth it
