lyrics

Well, what if we did/could you handle it kid/I feel fucked up everyday, and I ain't take a hit/writing songs to feel appreciated/hated on by anybody with a keyboard in reach of they fingertips/but I ain't mad tho/I used to resent it/then I went and found a way for me to deal with it like a Bennett/I said bring it on/took the punches as they came/fuck it, no matter what you think imma give J-DASH his name/I grew older/realized that I could make a difference in this game/used this God-given talent Jesus dropped up in my brain/even though I struggled with the pain/now you tell me if we're the same/(X)/damn/what a plan/thought that I was now the man/thinkin that I had a fan/no matter where I had ran/but, then I realized it was a charade/or maybe people had changed/but it wasn't for the better/need a girl to takeaway the pain/swear to god I'd keep her wetter/but I wonder if I'm gone like Martin/how many niggas had laid with my Corretta/it's a setup/but now I got a vendetta/it's a stickup/but nigga I ain't worried bout the chedda/prepared to face the shooters with nothin better than a sweater/black jeans, my Hawks hat and nike shoes is what they'll lay me in/take a good look, this is the face of a crazy man/(X)

((Sophie)You may be thinking it's your final hours/I'll hold you close and show you that you've got that power/it's not the end of the road/it's just covered in snow/I'll show you where it goes/help you cover the wounds that you've had exposed/I'll help you discover that which your life owe/I'll have you rising from the ashes like a phoenix rose/)

/and that's a double entendre/I sit at my study table and I wonder/is it me against the world, them stakes ain't no fun bruh/I'll take me against the universe/take any verse that I wrote and stuff it in your face/that should keep your mouth closed and your feelings hurt/(X)

J-DASH Seattle, Washington

I hail from Seattle, Washington. I am 1/2 of the Tongue Triggas crew. My focuses: music and football. If I'm not in the weight room working out, I'm usually in the studio recording and writing. I'm not the kind of rapper that wants the money to stack to the roof, I'm a rapper that wants to make music for the people listen to. Buy the album tho. I need cash for the studio. #brokenigga lol. Peace!! ... more
