Coming straight through with the interlude
My names Just Jon let me introduce
Je m'appelle Ben
(And bro it's ok I'll say my own name when we're in the booth)
Wait stop, rewind that
We agreed that you wouldn't get side tracked
You seem confused and I don't approve
So it's time that you stop with the side chat
Yeah but, You said that I could do me
Can I speak to the people and tell them my story
Can I take a minute just give me a second to finish my sentence
And tell them bout me, geez
What's with the tears, me then you that's clear Ben just use your ears
I hear, Sammy listens better than you, not true
I'm here, don't interfere
But we used to be about rap, spit 16's on a hip-hop track
Yeah but don't you remember our chat, music for everyone not just hip hop rap
Yeah true, music for everyone... but can we just see if this works
Fine you go first, just get going and spit your verse
Ok, As a kid I thought life was the best
No stress, I guess it was bless
Yes. We struggled for money, but never went hungry
Let me get this off my chest
My parents divorced I think I was four
How could I forget it how could I ignore
Yeah but that was before, what about now Ben tell me more
I'm twenty four, I got many stories, I found my faith and I'm better for it
That don't that I got it all together
Cause I been through the weather and I've been through the storm and
I have many regrets
That I just never address
My mind is telling me give up you'll never be nothing now I'm on the fence
(Now I'm)
I been finding my voice, I been growing to a man from a boy
I been maturing and having a choice
And that is something that many avoid
Life ain't a toy, it's a gift, we exist, I wanna live
I wanna be the one to play my part I wanna be the one to give it everything
So what's your point?
I wanna know What my worth is
I wanna know I'm not worthless
I wanna look at my self in the mirror see something that's better and really
Believe I've got purpose
Yeah but Nobodies perfect
That a lesson I'll always be learning
Many people put up with their burdens, sick of this life, they're stuck in the circuit
Mate that's deep
I did it I went there and so did my sister it's nothing but pain believe I been there
And eating disorder I been through it all and there's nothing to gain
I'm speaking the words so many think, deep in their world, close to the brink
And I got the pen and the pad and it's all that I have to persuade you to think
