N0va - Seconds lyrics

[Intro] Hey yo yo none of that, none of that Gimme that sh** right here Lemme sign my name up on a b**h! That's N-O-V-A...make that sh** look proper [Verse 1: N0va] Leave my marks on the history books Slipping through years singing through eras – hitting the hooks Storing elephants in Crannies and Nooks Cuz I just pack it with substance – never judge a book by the cover and looks I been big -treading and watching my step But I been crushing all the mountains and the motions don't rest I been doing more damage and its causing me stress Keeps feeling like my hearts jumping out of my chest All I want is the weed smoke Keeps me away the heat tho B-Students be making the C-Note All lives matter but we don't Forget it The perspectives pathetic We resort to ending lives rather than be sympathetic [Hook] Seconds upon Seconds Pa** me by Lessons upon Lessons Can Stack my Mind X2 [Verse 2: N0va] I can bob and weave But life keeps hitting me harder and harder Got my guards up but the jabs stretching Farther and farther I get knocked out and I keep hearing the words of my father Son get yo a** up – you better be ready to fight fo yo honor I got broken down only to find myself getting stronger We're all on a conveyer belt on the way to the slaughter I could try to escape but these days its like I can't be bothered Can't be watered down – can't be conquered till my family's offered Everything [Hook] Seconds upon Seconds Pa** me by (Just pa**ing me by) Lessons upon Lessons Can Stack my Mind (Just stackin my mind) X2 All the lessons I've learned all the time that I burned all the bridges I've turned around Seconds upon Seconds Pa** me by (Just pa**ing me by) Lessons upon Lessons Can Stack my Mind (Just stackin my mind) [Verse 3: N0va] Becoming real skeptical in my formative age I found my home, but always think about going away My loyalty freys Like the hood brother who k**ed his homie for J's Like Toronto cats who aren't supporting the Jays I'm Always amazed People play it loose with they commitments Try to get too close but I keep playin it distant I put my defenses up, I put up resistance I vibe less with my day-1s than I do with my writtens And it's a shame that it's a fact Can't claim to get attached All these lames sound the same upon on a track I can't change but I adapt Cuz I cut the chord from my ego A stillborn personality I decided to veto They say, like a knife The mind is sharp But like with life The handles bend in parts The same damage a blade do, a brain do – it stabs through hearts Over time it all rusts, and busts apart [Hook] Seconds upon Seconds Pa** me by (Just pa**ing me by) Lessons upon Lessons Can Stack my Mind (Just stackin my mind) X2 All the lessons I've learned all the time that I burned all the bridges I've turned around Seconds upon Seconds Pa** me by (Just pa**ing me by) Lessons upon Lessons Can Stack my Mind (Just stackin my mind)
