Murky Waters/4r the Love Lyrics

How would you like to be remembered?

As the quietest in the crowd?

Or the one who is overcome with silence when they are told their too loud?

Or the one who uses public opinion as their driving sound?

What do you stand for?

Do you live in the moment or the past?

Do you allow fear to consume you?

Do you relax and turn a blind eye to the world?

Where will you be when the revolution is televised?

Call it what you will

I just call it reparations

For the lane that the boy been paving

Hopped off the porch and said I'm gonna make it

I stayed patient, everybody wanna be famous

But nobody wanna work for it

My OGs in the back said this verse important

So I gotta hit hard where it hurts, of course

I mean really I'm missing my friends

But while I been searching the ends, I finally learned to make amends with issues I had in the past

Of stepping out and setting trends

I'm pushing P with my pen, I paint a picture with my lens

That only the real comprehend

With the time, I'm confessing my sins, I'm finding happiness within

Drowning in the murky waters

Still gonna make the Sunday Service

These days getting harder

Still I never lost the focus

Hold it down, just hold it down, just hold it down

Hold it down, just hold it down, jus (One for my mind, and two for yours, hold it down for me)

Drowning in the murky waters

Still gonna make the Sunday Service

Tell the girls in the party

I'm the one to give them closure

Hold it down, just hold it down, just hold it down

Hold it down, just hold it down, just hold it down

I'm at the pump with like twenty on seven

Then I pop up with like twenty-one questions

Like what does it mean to be really in heaven?

Man, I'll talk to the reverend

I'm never in church, but I carry the message

Is it wrong that I pray for a blessing?

I'm a lethal weapon, I'm a force of nature but I'm copacetic

I'm a walking danger to the rap aesthetic

Like let's face it, I'm one of a kind

I wouldn't say I'm ahead of time, but please don't compare me to none of these guys

Yeah, I talk about money and vibes, but I gotta know where priorities lie

And my pen be sharpening iron, so cherish these verses whenever I die

Don't you know that I'm a gift from the sky?

I get the keys, and I go for a ride

Then I listen to the bars, and look at the stars, and say that my brothers was right

I got the torch, and I'm taking the light

Can't trust people who move out of spite

Took me a minute, but I gotta fight for mine

I'm too busy getting it right, you know what I like

I mean really I'm missing my friends

But while I been searching the ends, I finally learned to make amends with issues I had in the past

Of stepping out and setting trends

I'm pushing P with my pen, I paint a picture with my lens

That only the real comprehend

With the time, I'm confessing my sins, I'm finding happiness within

Drowning in the murky waters

Still gonna make the Sunday Service

These days getting harder

Still I never lost the focus

Hold it down, just hold it down, just hold it down

Hold it down, just hold it down, jus (One for my mind, and two for yours, hold it down for me)

Drowning in the murky waters

Still gonna make the Sunday Service

Tell the girls in the party

I'm the one to give them closure

Hold it down, just hold it down, just hold it down

Hold it down, just hold it down, jus

Twenty 'o seven in the parking lot

My girl wanna know why I don't talk a lot

I was hella shy, but the boy changed, now I'm nonchalant

Life is never just a walk in the park

But best believe, I can walk it out

When it's something strange in your neighborhood, who the one you call jus to walk it down?

People's champ like I been The Rock

Get to stepping on all you jabronis

I can tell out the fakes and the phonies

I'm watching you closely, and peeping your motives

Politicking and overindulging in life, sometimes you gotta enjoy it

I done found me a way, I took off the chains

These blessings I cannot avoid

But these days, I'm running on E, only God can judge me

I'm the kid good from the mad city, so that's why she love me

And I don't like my pockets empty, and my homies don't like the feel of greed

And I wish that money grew on trees, I could buy anything I ever need

But these days, I been running on E, only God can judge me

I am not the shooter, but the homie Steph, and he never empty

These verses fill my self esteem, and I don't like feeling weak

And I wish that money grew on trees, I'ma buy that house my Grammy need

This for my squad, this for my gang

This for my love, and everything to maintain

This for my guys, this for my name

This for my OGs in the city

We just want money, we don't need fame

This for my squad, this for my gang

This for my love, and everything to maintain

This for my guys, this for my name

This for my OGs in the city

We just want money, we don't need fame

Twenty 'o seven in the parking lot

My girl wanna know why I don't open up

Life hit hard, had to toughen up

I ain't looking for a shoulder rub, I need the lord above

And right now, he been giving me lessons

Even if I through my depressions

Nowadays, I'm in need of direction, tryna stay with the best

But the boy tryna stay out the hollow parts of the city where they holding up Rondos

Any moment, they can make the boy John Doe

Will I die at the light? Hell if I know

But if music be the death of me, I made peace with the RIPs

But, please don't cry for me, just stay alive for me

Man, I wrote this song so the family knows I gave my life to this

This for my squad, this for my gang

This for my love, and everything to maintain

This for my guys, this for my name

This for my OGs in the city

We just want money, we don't need fame

This for my squad, this for my gang

This for my love, and everything to maintain

This for my guys, this for my name

This for my OGs in the city

We just want money, we don't need fame

Stop hiding from life, live it

After all

The world is ending anyway
