Jerreau – Persevere Lyrics

Artist: Jerreau
Song: Persevere

Yeah
I’m just happy to be back you know
I ain’t been in this, in this booth in a minute, you know
n#gg#s, n#gg#s been going through sh#t and sh#t (haha)

But that’s life though
You know, you got to like persevere and whatnot
Ain’t that what they tell you? (hah)
Word up

Yeah
What’s up?
Ugh
Look

Born and raised in Columbus
A product of the Southside
800 South Champion, that’s where I learned not to die
Gun shots through the night, ghetto birds in the sky

I walked to and from school, black boys can’t fly
You can do anything, the greatest lie ever told
I told myself all the time, sometimes you just got to lie
Because the system is broken, and the scales are tipped

And that city school to prison pipeline do exist
You miss what you don’t shoot, I’m a hundred percent
It’s real in the field, don’t come off that bench
How you raise your gun, before you raise your fist?

But how you raise your fist, before you raise your voice?
You ain’t a man you a boy, damn what you heard
Got to speak up, rest in peace, my n#gg#s lost they voice
I’ve been trying to cut back, I got a drink in my hand

I’ve been trying to stack up, I need more paper damn
I’ve been trying to spend time with my immediate fam
But that don’t never pan out, swear they don’t know who I am
I was raised in the church, no I don’t go no more

See I got to find God, for myself, you should know
That’s why I quit that job, I got to work for my own
I got to pull my own load, I got to build me a home
Motherf#ck being broke, damn this sh#t is depressing

And I just got word, my ex-girlfriend pregnant
And I feel indifferent, not ’cause I’m jealous
You should know I feel indifferent about a lot of sh#t
But when you chasing a dream, you miss out on some sh#t

It’s like three or four girls I could have settled down with
But f#ck it I’ll be that n#gg# that you never forget
And you love it, I’m still that n#gg#, don’t you ever forget
I come through with the who want it? Like anybody can get it

Like it’s open to the public, like f#ck it
It’s Fly U! Three the hard way like a foul and a bucket
F U, if you don’t love it
In my feelings like that, sometimes it be like that

Allahu akbar, I’m just happy to be here
Sip this champagne, then spit at your women friend
Leaving you smiling from ear to ear, I’m at your neck
I need more gold chains and better sex

It never happens how you plan it, what’s next?
I’m in a Range with Ramos right now
Another hour driving LJ’s ghost right now
The first time behind the wheel of a quarter mill

I told myself, I need this feeling everyday by now
But right now, I ain’t eating, and it’s hunting season
I need three meals a day, I’m three M’s away
Get my mom a new place, give her moon she need space

It’s never not okay, and it’s slave for yourself until that day
What’s up?
It’s the Greater Than Club, what’s up, wassup?
It never happens how you plan it n#gg#

But get your money how you planned it n#gg#
Long as the ladies love a n#gg#, I’ma always be that n#gg#
What’s up?
