Johnny D - Frozen Over (feat. Royce da 5'9") lyrics

[Intro] Sometimes… it seems like we're stuck in our past This endless cycle Other times, Seems like we're just trying to freeze the moment Just for a little longer Of all the things we control you know Time isn't one of them We're always in a race against time [Verse 1] When I started this I never thought I Could be the person I became my Own worst critic, when I was word smithin' There was work in it, There was a way I Thought that I could be something Now it's the way I stay alive Used to dream bout Shady Records Never could of reckoned being with 5'9” This day and night, getting colder My flow getcha' like frostbite People say what they want to say But this all heart that's no lie Had a friend that went suicide Dried the bottle Proceeded to seizure Eyes wide foaming at the mouth I was in the room yellin' don't die When the body went cold I realized Ain't gonna take sh** for granted What I've been through Showed me times against you Karma hits you double handed I'm praying this works the way I planned it, taking a gambit, taking my chances I'll freeze the clock before the sands of time have vanished [Chorus] Frozen Over This Worlds Been Frozen Over From the Dreams that Never Change The Memories Remain and Hold Us And It's Strange We're Growing Older When We Were Young, Remember it Was Slower, Stop the watch until the seconds show up Frozen Over The World's Been Frozen Over” (x3) This World's Been Frozen Over (x3) [Verse 2] I, shifted my focus to shine, hoping I don't hopelessly grind Momma told me to open my mind and everything will be alright And I hope she's right, I'ma just keep writin' Made a few jokes in the past about 50 Tyson Ended up with a kid who's autistic, this here's priceless But this is life sh** They say that you can't take, none of the money you make With you, but will he still go up to heaven, with his vices If so, I probably go, Bottle and All, Momma and All, Vomit and All Standing and Dominant Tall Feeling like Problems and Drama Resolved Like a weight off my shoulders Got the soul of 84 soldiers, put together before the vultures, integrated the culture That was way before the, the Oprahs, the Costa Nostras, The clothing The world before then has been Frozen Over Sometimes it's better to just, forget it and just, let it exist And get rid of all your competitiveness But me I'm just ghetto I guess I'm taking that bottle to battle I'm getting my daddy up out of that post office Even if it k**s me, if it means, to follow my shadow ….Frozen Over [Chorus 2] [Verse 3] I wanted to freeze the hands of time Fearing my chances pa**ing by Already 20, next thing I'll be 30 I'm worried of being way past my prime Have to rhyme, I put it up on my honor like a Samurai Strategize to win the fight, It's like we can't put the past behind Looking for power we'll never be satisfied This is the battle cry What's your alibi, some k**ing for rap, some k**ing for Palestine Some things they never change I wonder why it's stayed the same The worlds been Frozen Over Never left the Ice Age [Chorus 3]
