Lyrics Cold Currents - J-Live

Cold Currents

Now you could have my attention but I’m still at ease
A-Alikes, B-Boys, CBs, DJs, Ladies
Promoters, emcees
Producers, labels, fans, families
Friends, frenemies and not so friendlies.
(And not so friendlies)
I show love to all cause that’s all I be
But please don’t get it twisted
Cause I’ma be me.
(Cause I’ma be me.)
From knowledge to born Allah to zig zag zee.
«Realizing the realism in life in
actuality»?
(Actuality)
Don’t give a fuck about your status or your salary.
(Salary)
If you’re not self aware that’s a tragedy.
(Tragedy)
Knowledge of self is not an act or a strategy.
(Strategy)
The essence of existence is essentially existential
A pleasant way on an instrumental
To tell you that it is what it is.
(What it is)
Open to more tiers just by handling biz
Imma water these flowers.
(Water these flowers)
Combine this flour with water.
(Flour with water)
Kneed that dough?
Bake that bread.
(Bake that bread)
You wanna get money from me
Or make money with me?
Come and work next to me
Get some sweat equity.
(Sweat equity)
For those that would rather compete
As if their cipher’s already complete?
I ain’t agin ya I’m for ya.
(I'm for ya)
For those that wanna wait and see
To hop on when it’s a fait accompli?
It’s ain’t that I abhor ya, but I gotta ignore ya
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide
'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide
'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide
'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide
'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
I heard the best revenge is living well.
(Living well)
In that case I hope you get your big payback.
(Big payback)
The honest truth is that i only want the best for you.
(Best for you)
Ironically I made myself a hot mess for you.
(Mess for you)
And let you go because my best laid plans were foiled
Bent twig crooked tree now the fruit’s spoiled.
(Fruit's spoiled)
I pulled the trigger got to hold down the recoil.
(Recoil)
And bite the bullet cause there’s no way to put it back
That’s why I never talk gunplay or flash iron
My Nana said don’t even show it till you’re bout to use it
I know better than to use it unless I have to.
(Have to)
It must a been life or death for me to blast you.
(Blast you)
You wanted till death waiting for me to ask you.
(Ask you)
I could be down for that
But not because I have to.
(Have to)
See I would never jump the gun and half ass you.
(Ass you)
And not before I have a chance to do the math to, (Math to)
See how things add up for it to last through, (Last through)
The hard times when the wagons get circled
So tight that nothing outside can penetrate.
(Penetrate)
Can we keep each other hot enough to circulate?
(Circulate)
And stay cool enough to let each other ventilate?
(Ventilate)
(Circulate. Ventilate)
(Circulate. Ventilate)
(Circulate. Ventilate)
(Circulate. Ventilate)
(Circulate. Ventilate)
Meant when I said I never wanted you to be (Be)
Anything other than who you truly are.
(Truly are)
The fine print is that it doesn’t guarantee you’re what I need
Close but no cigar
I’ll guess I’ll simply love you from afar.
(From afar)
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide 'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide 'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide 'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide 'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide 'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide 'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide 'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide 'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
«Wash my wears in Tide 'cause it’s too damn cold out, Tide.»
That’s why I’m staying inside
