It's a journey (Live Recording) Lyrics

It's a journey

Man I did this to myself

Allowed them to

Oversteps they boundaries

Gotta find my self wealth

Dealt in so much poverty

My heart was reaping sovereignty

Valued quantity over quality

The fruit of my labors

Meer honesty modestly

Consciously I knew

They was wrong for me

But honestly

I didn't care

What was right for me

I danced with my demons

Bathed with some heathens

Thrived in weakness

Unscathed in my thesis

Basked in the putrid smell of sin

I did everything

It took to win

Even let the devil in

The price of my peace

Paid it with my soul

The price of my life

Paid by the heavy toll

Wasn't whole

But I acted well

So it's what people thought

Dressed in clothes

That looked so swell

Cuz I knew people was soft

Always up in ya face

Never paying attention to Themselves

Blinded by admiration

Disguised as hate

And when the bill comes

It's a little too late

To try to pay the piper

When he's looking at ya face

Overdrawn and they

Accounts delinquent

All up in my purse

Tryna check my worth

All up in my mentions

Trying to grab my attention

Never pay they bills

But they pay me

Through they conviction

But I checked my pay

Still gotta fight today

Not enough

To put food on my plate

Smile and push away

Any negative energy

That comes my way

Hid from the truth

Fought the same demons

Of my youth

But now I'm living in those roots

It's a journey

And it's not about the destination

It's about if you make it through
