Piece of Mind (Explicit) - Joey Bada$$

Written by：Jo-Vaughn Virginie/Freddie Joachim

Hello

Yeah i hear you bro i hear you

You got a minute

Yeah i got a quick sec

Alright i want you to hear something

I'mma play something for you alright

Alright alright

Yo yo you hear it bro

Yeah

Yeah

Alright listen listen

Tell you what sh*t is like right now y'all

What life like now tryna figure out

They put this mic on trial cause he be killin' now

Forever bitin' my forbidden style

Been laying low for a minute in the game

Since i came all these niggas looking timid

My light could never dimith the lord is my shepherd

Jesus walk in devil linens and sinning with least efforts

Thinking back to those lefferts days

And i ain't been the same since i left 6th grade

My mind strayed used to have the biggest heart

Taking walks with abuela in the park i used to tell her

I'ma grow propellers one day and be a good fella

Play the hero or whoever the hood gon' tell us

Let's just pray it ain't the villain

Till then i be feeling some way

Thinkin' i can get the maybach off gun play

Instead i let the words play with 90 beats a minute

Bet the streets lose a heart beat before the verse finish

But life goes on basic rules still apply

Bet you can feel that line in any hood you live by

From flatbush to figg side i was a schoolboy too

Hoppin' trains i just missed my queue

And what's life like for me it's but a dream

Everything ain't what it seems up underneath

The surface is but a screen we only see

What we know

And what's life like for me it's but a dream

Everything ain't what it seems up underneath

The surface is but a screen we only see

What we know

And what's life like now i can't figure out

They put my mans on trial say he a killer now

Conspiracies we gon' get you out

Just keep ya head up g sh*t is wild

It's bugged out cause i know you tryna see your child

But i'mma hold you down still cause you my brother

I just gave will a lil' something for your baby mother

But don't stress know you caught up in some bs

Bet next time you see us we gonna be our best

Love you my ni**a word is bond you'll stay strong

Out in new york this same sh*t is goin' on

Peace to all my brothers who keep still holding on

Been away so long feel like a tickin' time bomb

The misjudgment of our kind who the odds is against

Put our backs on the fence so we self defence

Followed by a series of unfortunate events

Looking like white america got a brother again

Like for me it's but a dream

Everything ain't what it seems up underneath

The surface is but a screen we only see

What we know

And what's life like for me it's but a dream

Everything ain't what it seems up underneath

The surface is but a screen we only see

What we know

Take shots to the face with no peace of mind

Give me my piece of mind

Take shots to the face with no peace of mind

Give me my piece of mind

This life is all we know this life is all we know

Man that's crazy yo that's amazing b

Thank you bro

Word bro

That one is for you my ni**a

Good looking bro good looking man

That just boosted my adrenaline

It's been ages i gotta get out this joint b

Just be thinkin' about y'all for real
