WORK OF ART (feat. Will Smith & Russ)
Jaden
I'm a work of art
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in a dot
For the dead people, I'm a work of art
As I live and breathe
I am the paint, and I'm the brush, and I'm the canvas
I am a saint, but if you touch, I am a savage
I am a libra but, I identify as a cancer
I am the tongue, truth and the lie, both in tandem
I am the Sun, and I'm the rain, and I'm the wind
I am for real, and I'm pretend (I am pretend)
I am musa, I am Jesus
I am Judas, I am the judge
I am the victim, and I'm the shooter
I'm in the torah, and the koran, and in the bible
I am a shepherd
I am a leader, and a disciple
I am the wretched, and the blessed
I am the average
I am the shadow, and I'm the light
I am the marriage
I'm a work of art
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in a dot
For the dead people, I'm a work of art
As I live and breathe, I'm a work of art (yeah)
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in a dot (yeah)
For the dead people, I'm a work of art (yeah, yeah)
As I live and breathe
My soul feels trapped, like I'm ridin' the bryson tiller beats
On the road to inner peace
Takin' unfamiliar streets (yeah)
Trying to kill the beast
Just made it grow more
My shadows haunting me
What you think I'm driving a ghost for (boom, boom, boom)
Perceptions POW
Voices in my head, like we don't fuck with you
Ego is the poison, the cure is being uncomfortable (gotta do it)
After the chaos comes certain clarity
Being a public figure is constant immersion therapy
Make sure that when you stare at me, every flaw is highlighted
See yourself when you see me
Instead of acting like you got blindsided by the fact that I'm human
The good, the bad, and the ugly
Just know that you're looking right into a mirror when you judge me
You know
I'm still working (on myself)
As I live and breathe (on myself)
On myself
Sword up to my neck again
I ain't holding my breath again
Head's heavy, that wears the crown
But I won't bow down unless I'm (workin')
I'm a king, no denying this
Every limit I'm defying it
Everybody want to be a lion, until it's time to do lying (king)
I'ma lead, till I die
Follow me to the peace
Through the fire, in my dreams
Outta reach, on the horizon
What I see? Mysteries
The surprises, the energy (whoo)
They tried to censor me (ah)
But then they sent for me
And I ain't come alone, I brought my symphony
My life, my love, my lab, my holy trinity
I'm a work of art
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in a dot (dot, dot, dot)
For the dead people, I'm a work of art
As I live and breathe, I'm a work of art (yeah)
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in a dot (yeah)
For the dead people, I'm a work of art
As I live and breathe
As I live and breathe
As I live and breathe
