World Keeps Spinnin' - Joe Budden

Yeah…

Escape Route

Let’s go

And the world keeps spinning!

I feel like the world keeps spinning

And the world keeps spinning

It’s like the world keeps winning

And to spite me the world keep grinning

I ain’t trying to bother none

So how I end up bothersome?

Yeah you damn right I’m my father’s son

Minus prison, minus over 20 years in the system

But don’t take away the wisdom

Holy water won’t cleanse him

Hardheaded, won’t convince him

A nigga wear pride like it’s denim

Fuck who don’t get along with me

I’m alright with everything that’s wrong with me

And that’s how it’s going to be

That opinion is mine, motherfucker, it belong to me

So get mad at it, half beast, half addict

Can halfass it and be better than rap bastards

Black 'matic, give me room asthmatic asthmatic

I spit high class acid, I’m positive, now that’s magic

I’m trying to change shit like a Panther

Asking the right questions but getting the wrong answers

I could talk about how a nigga trade slugs

Boast about, toast and what the .38 does

But a nigga seen what happened to the fam of J-Hud

So I thank God for every morning I wake up

Wait up!

I could front as if everything’s fine

But my grandmother’s dying, and shes 89

Older but her mind about as sharp as mine

If this world were mine I would rewind time

To a time when her heart didn’t leak that fluid

She needs surgery, doctors talking stupid

Said «she already lived her life so she can afford to lose it»

Talking like their tools is useless

Ain’t that some shit, she gotta approve it

Grandma ready to go, she’d rather them not do it

No matter how much it might hurt me

Another lesson learned, some fights ain’t fight worthy

Jersey

I’m waiting on a true revival

I’mma call you a coward if you alive and suicidal

Either be grateful for everything God said you supposed to get

Or pull the trigger and get over it

Hip Hop’s Poster-Kid, all this weight on my back

But you ain’t gotta spot me, I can shoulder it

Life’s a rollercoaster, that ride gonna be easy

Why don’t you believe me?

My parents was high when they conceived me

Say I got a couple control issues

I disagree, I just like to control issues

My train of thought, my state of mind

Is I could change the world one state at a time

With the matters of every hater aligned

Got an agenda, I just feel like ya’ll should cater to mine

Ideas brilliant, perservere, I’m resilient

Until the world change, I be right here chilling
