John Jr - The Journey Lyrics

Rainy days, I drank the pain away
I been through too much for it to stay this way
I done called you for two months, are you curious at all with what I have to say

Is this love or is hate or is both and you just playin' it safe
I wish my dreams came with an afterpay
That way you wouldn't have to wait to see if I would be great
But it doesn't work that way, nah

But the journey's what make this shit beautiful
When you reach a pinnacle
It's gonna make it even sweeter
Reflectin' on them days in that cubicle

Tryna reach quota every month
Paycheck to paycheck, eatin' bullshit for lunch
Starin' through the grey clouds in hopes to see the sun
Yeah, in hopes to see the sun

To shine down on me cause I need it
Prayin' to the Lord while I wrestle with these demons
Hellcat charger lite blue, it's anemic
Slidin' through Georgia lookin' for the right peaches

When it should be you
But I can only give you the game, I can't make you choose
If you was me, tell me what would you do
Yeah, uh

Tell me what would you do
Uh
And lately I been breakin' down cryin
My grandma gettin' older, sufferin' from arthritis

It hurts when I visit but I still sit beside her
I wonder who's gon' sit beside me when them wheels fall off
Tell me who's gon' be a rider
There's a lot of niggas around but they ain't with us

Van Gogh vision, only a few they see the picture
Tell Kansas to snap the picture
Uh
To say these memories cause I don't say feelings

That's how I lost out, bein' too forgiving
Uh, yeah, mm
But they say that it's no such thing
But I can feel that shit in my veins

I can feel it in my veins, yeah
And I don't need no sympathy, I'ma get through it on my own
Yeah
The journey

And the journey ain't for the weak, man, it's for the strong
I deal with it on my own, nigga
I deal with it on my own, nigga
