Speak Life Lyrics

From the continent where life came

Beautiful

As we hold the creator's last names

Seeds put in the dirt that grew to stretch to the stars above

Like trees, leaves, hair that shines

Multiple skin tones, tongues of all kinds

Pick the fruit off the vine

Be picky with your words, be kind

Speak life

Speak life

Jay-O

Had me back in the corner but feeling down no longer

Need a designated driver, crashing pity parties

Like I'm Homer sipping something, bro

We celebrating, bro

Put your glasses up

Nah, man, don't call this rapping

This is club

Hopping up first thing in the morning

And thanking God for bars

Like, Anywaywell, pour me something

Time to celebrate

This medicine

For when the headache like be positive

And yo, Jo medicate

With melodies that mandate that you meditate

A better way than focusing on distractions

That stay your way

No more sadness

Choose to speak life

When you not living it lavish

Jay-O with the Dan goddamn he the

Bro, that's spitting it from the cabbage

And reppin' that night like Gladys

Midnight, being black ain't all that matters

Bruce Wayne in the daylight had us pissed

Thinking European was the only way

Bro, don't think twice

Grow your fro

Do it B.I.G. with the puffy Colmbs

Style, never pick it

When haters gotta ass

Not for Jay to kiss

Man, grow your locks

In life, you never stuck, man

Man, quitting is the quicksand

Little man, man, pull your britches up

No more chin that's sagging

Watching feet when walking

On the low, you jealous

But surrounded by blessings

Invest it in spiritualness

Shhh, My blessings talking

You, you're invincible

Because you speak life

You're resilient

I've seen you

They've seen you

We've seen you

We know what you can do

Speak life

Speak life

Yeah

Holding on to something

Owing no man nothing

Paying bills first

Been through hell and back

We know what's worst

Man, they put my partner in the ground

From perspective man

We heaven bound

Looked in my pockets and closets

And lost myself in complaining

You know what I done found out

There's always somebody

Properly struggling

Wishing that they was in your place

And hustling

This is for the nights in Baghdad

When the mortars hit the ground

Family, I wish I had that around

Memories, I never trade that

Appreciate my people

Even when my people never say it back

This world is mayhem

JoDan using the power of I am

Used to think my shit don't stink

Now that I'm on the brink

Of being down to earth

Don't get it twisted

I am heaven sent

Keeping my ego on tracks

That get me invested in the booth

Both night and day

That spit that 24K

So I can take it away like Goldman Sachs

Okay

No more misdirected energy

We speaking life

In life you never stuck man

Man quitting is the quicksand

Little man man pull your britches up

No more chain that's sagging

Watching feet when walking

On the low you jealous

But surrounded by blessings

Invest it in spiritualness

Shhh, my blessings talking

You are one of a kind

Authentic

There's no one like you

But someone for you

You're so wise

You're glowing

You're radiant

Speak life

Black and white

It's just a label

Only a color

Human made in his image

Divinity is one of a kind

Above all other

Life started in one place

Then migrated off to another

So when they're in your city

Your state

Your country

I hope you see your sister

Your brother

We don't need COVID

To remind us

What we mean to one another
