Jay Smith - Storm Lyrics

I know I was built for this shit
I know that I came equipped to weather in the storm
Yeah, yeah
I know that I was built for this shit
I know that I came equipped to weather in the storm
So please don't start to doubt me now

Gray skies
Some say they'll never make it but ain't tried
This self doubt shit, let me tell you it aint wise
You see I'm spittin all this heat but it don't rise
Already killed me once they don't know still got eight lives
I get on the mic you hear the crack of the thunder
Why do I end up here alone? Its making me wonder
Tie these blocks to my feet, let it drag me under
Never mind, I'll cut the ties and separate from the blunder
I watched you change, they say we all here for a purpose
I ain't need you then and I don't want you there when I surface
I can't return it to the point of sales I'm hating this purchase
What type of value did it bring? Nothing, its broken, its worthless
Rain drops are getting bigger, good thing I'm thick skinned
This shit will make you dizzy, stuck in the whirlwind
Blood always thicker than water, unless your blood thinned
This type of shit is cyclic, here we go again

I know I was built for this shit
I know that I came equipped to weather in the storm
Yeah, yeah
I know that I was built for this shit
I know that I came equipped to weather in the storm
So please don't start to doubt me now

Watch out for flash floods
That shit will strike without warning
They constantly tell me that it's always darkest before morning
But that don't change the fact that I'm feeling this way and I'm mourning
You promise me clear skies, I walk outside and its pouring
Rain drops keep falling on my head, I'm a soak it in
Put up that silicone wall that way you won't get in
Thought I was tougher than this, I'm feeling broken in
All these words in my mouth are going left unspoken then
Wind advisory is up, that always used to scare me
But now I know to spread my wings and allow it to carry
Land slides provide the dirt that allow me to bury
Everything that I'm feeling, no longer will share these
I just put my hood up when the rains getting harder
It's amazing what you wash off your hands with a little water
Say what you want about me, I ain't nobody's fodder
I'll drop you off right here, I won't go any farther

I know I was built for this shit
I know that I came equipped to weather in the storm
Yeah, yeah
I know that I was built for this shit
I know that I came equipped to weather in the storm
So please don't start to doubt me now

You know I never did need an umbrella, ella, ella
To keep me protected from inclement weather
Honestly, I've been the type to always keep it together
The storms have always been cleansing, they're always making me better
Amidst all of the chaos, I'm as calm as the eye
Like lightening streaks from the clouds, I'm a light up the sky
I'll always face the tsunami while you run and you hide
I gotta feel something just to remind myself I'm alive
Rain drops are falling and they're coming down sideways
On my Sinatra shit, I'm a handle things my way
I know I'm built for this, you can see it in my face
When I'm feeling tornadic, stay the f*ck out of my space
The storm has never left, won't turn my back on the rain
I just keep walking steady and just go numb to the pain
No matter what it throws at me, I'm a still maintain
That's because I am the storm and nothings stopping the rage

I know I was built for this shit
I know that I came equipped to weather in the storm
Yeah, yeah
I know that I was built for this shit
I know that I came equipped to weather in the storm
So please don't start to doubt me now
