on the street (feat. J-hope)

Every time I walk
Every time I run
Every time I move
As always, for us

Every time I look
Every time I love
Every time I hope
As always, for us
(On the street, I’m still)

My two feet walk willingly, anywhere
J in the air
Wanting the path to become hope, I hesitate
Even my walk was made of
Your love and your faith
I’ll answer, even from afar, becoming a butterfly

Now just walk lightly, whenever you want
Go on hopefully, wherever you walk
The street where someone's breath is nestled
I will fill it with my soul and eternity
Everywhere (I’ll be)

Every time I walk
Every time I run
Every time I move
As always, for us

Every time I look
Every time I love
Every time I hope
As always, for us
(On the street, I’m still)

Every time I walk
Every time I run
Every time I move
As always, for us

Every time I look
Every time I love
Every time I hope
As always, for us
(On the street, I’m still)

All hail the mighty survivor of hell
Plopped down from heaven to sell
Holy water that I scooped from the well
Fought tooth and a nail
Just to prevail mongst it’s ruthless
As I move through the field

Feelin worried
In a hurry like a two minute drill
To make a couple mil
Off a lucrative deal
Selling train of thought
Name a artist who could derail
You’ll never see it
Like a nigga hula hoopin in jail

I got a friend smart as fuck
But he stupid as hell
He swear that God ain’t real
Since it ain’t no way to prove it his self
As if the universe ain’t enough
As if the volcanoes ain’t erupt
As if the birds don’t chirp
As if a trillion nerves don’t work
In the human body

Who would I be?
Without the creator of this theater
Beside me to gently guide me?
Somedays I wonder if I need to
Pick a different hobby
I’m deep in with this rappin
It’s all a nigga know
I never didn’t nothin better
It’s hard to let it go
But like a father, watching his daughter
Walk down the altar
With tears in his eyes
You gotta let her grow

And so I shall
But first I been honing my style
Coldest around, with more quotables
Than what the quota allows

You see a top ten list
I see a Golden Corral, nigga

As the moon jumps over the cow
I contemplate if I should wait to
Hand over the crown
And stick around for a bit longer
I got a strange type of hunger
The more I eat the more it gets stronger
The more it gets stronger
I said the more it gets stronger

Every time I walk
Every time I run
Every time I move
As always, for us

Every time I look
Every time I love
Every time I hope
As always, for us
(On the street, I’m still)

Every time I walk
Every time I run
Every time I move
As always, for us

Every time I look
Every time I love
Every time I hope
As always, for us
(On the street, I’m still)
