J.I the Prince of N.Y
Redemption
[Intro]
Ridin' for my brothers 'cause they ride for me
Slidin' for my killers 'cause they slide for me
Nothin' that I wouldn't do for victory
Got redemption on my mind, yeah
Don't look in my eyes and then lie to me
Don't be actin' tough and then come cry to me
Don't play with your faith and try to tempt me
'Cause I been lookin' for redemption

[Verse 1]
I hold it down for you when you be lookin' up
I provide that sound for you, so now you feelin' tough
When DMX died, it was hard not to cry 'cause I was feelin' rough
Yeah, where my dogs at? I'm always there if they don't have enough
I'm ridin' through my city, hope you ridе for me
Give you what you need to pleasе you if true love you provide for me
Got the right stuff in my system, come and slide on me
They say it's beef but they move like fans when they slide on me
The best version of myself I'm really trying to be
Stars aligning and they shining in the sky that I see
When I look inside the mirror, who's this guy that I see?
And if tears covering ya eyes, I let you cry 'til we sleep
'Cause you're beautiful in my eyes, that's all I'm tryna be
You move evil, but you're beautiful in disguise to me
I was moving evil, I was shocked, don't be surprised like me
No, no, no
No, no, no
[Chorus]
I'm just staying
I'm still changing
Different phases, yeah
Get-get so faded, I forget what my age is
Let me do it if its dangerous (Oh-oh, yeah)
And I heard you got somebody that you stuck on and that's fine with me
You gon' forget it all, girl, just come and spend time with me

[Verse 2]
When I wake up, I feel goosebumps, I move like it isn't cold
Refreshing stupid shit you do, moving like it isn't old
You got a scent on ya body I just can't get off my nose
She got me thinkin' 'bout her, hope she doing the same, who knows
I called you my brother, you violated and switched sides on me
You let your emotions get in the way, that seems like pride to me
Disrespecting family members is a crime to me
I fill my lead up with some slugs and leave some slime in the streets
I told you if you call on me, I'm there to pick it up
I told you all my secrets just for you to dig em up
And I know you had a boyfriend but I don't care because that n***a sucks
Better be prepared if you a square, they might just stick you up

[Chorus]
What you saying?
I'm still changing
Different phases, yeah
Get-get so faded, I forget what my age is
Let me do it if its dangerous
And I heard you got somebody that you stuck on and that's fine with me
You gon' forget it all, girl, just come and spend time with me
[Bridge]
In order for this to work out, you gotta understand requirements
Right now, I'm in the Midwest, I'm admiring my environment
Me, myself, and I, and my family is who I'm sidin' with
And all those pussy n***as, you feel me, but I be silent with
I be ridin' through her city when she finds time for me
You a flower, I let you grow, just don't die on me
All that nonsense you spoke, they seem like lies to me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm just staying
I'm still changing
Different phases, yeah
Get-get so faded, I forget what my age is
Let me do it if its dangerous
And I heard you got somebody that you stuck on and that's fine with me
You gon' forget it all, girl, just come and spend time with me
