ZJ Mission - The Boy lyrics

[Verse 1] Open my eyes and take a good look at the road ahead I swear that time is money, so many hours spent Doing stuff that had no consequence or benefit Getting crazy but you still know I was getting it Now I'm way more mature, looking down on those actions Staying loose on the mic every time I speak in the past tense Overplaying plays on words like it makes me a great Fatal mistake that often alters the way to your fate Growing up too fast, I swear I need a break On a drive forever, got a lot at stake Eating with the family, memories to make And I still predict that I will sign with Drizzy Drake OVO forever, ARC forever No debate between the two 'cuz together they're better Working hard even though I'm unemployed So if you need someone to love who's better for you than the boy? [Hook] They say take care. But I don't wanna take too long I don't wanna stay here. But I don't wanna stray too far Lowkey on the rise, though they all be makin' noise When you need someone to lead you, ain't nobody better for you than the boy If you need someone to love, who's better for you than the boy? If you need help and no one comes, you always counting on the boy If you're stuck in a place that you don't wanna leave cuz You're scared of the future that you cannot see and You need someone, who's better for you than the boy? [Verse 2] Over-inflated views of myself's where I struggle the most Though I know I have the talent it's like no one else knows Wanna get some recognition but that's always a challenge Leaning on the arm of God so I never lose balance Underground king, my head in the clouds Heading uptown, ain't no getting me down ARC the crew trying to market the vision Blind dates with my destiny when I make decisions I'm that kind of guy to love you and openly say it The kind of guy to make an offer and know that you'll take it The kind of guy that would sit there right beside you and Let you cry on my shoulder and at the same time be praying I kinda feel like there's a side of me they never see Another person in the future that I'm meant to be I still have one year and a half as a kid to enjoy and If you need a friend who's better for you than the boy? [Hook] [Bridge] When you need to let it out, you know the boy's the one to talk to When you need somewhere to go, you know the boy's the one to walk to When you feel like you're alone, you know the boy'll always come through When you feel like no one cares, you know the boy'll always love you When you feel like you're alone, you know the boy'll always come through When you feel like no one cares, you know the boy'll always love you [Outro] This is my story, this is my song This is what I've been doing all along This is why I've given my life Girl I love you, forget any boy trying to take you away You'll always be mine, you'll always be mine
