Lauryns Song by Mikey Jay Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How you gonna win
If you ain’t right within
Where it’s all in the skin
And saints frown on sin
If you didn’t know it then
And you call up a friend
And wild out, just to vent
Forgetting the blessing sent
Too busy to chase a pent
Than going to spare a pent
And then living inside a tent
Looking out at the Ghent
And the hustle becomes a hobby
The moments spent in the lobby
Over-hyping illuminati
Wishing upon a Bugatti
Medium sexualize the body
Oh this world is naughty
Might drown it in a tsunami
Off these lyrics I embody
Made me black and white
Living in and out of spite
Screw who’s wrong or right
I’m gonna live out my life
(Who’s that?)
That’s Mikey from down the way
That’s Mikey without his Jay
That’s Mikey that they play
That’s exactly what they say
Running mouths instead of feeding
It’s cold, but the city’s heating
This air ain’t meant for breathing
Only care when bodies bleeding
Drama on your lines, like it up
Drinking something strong, spike it up
Like a volley, and then I hit it
I’m addicted, I could never quit it
Hit this rap so raw, I leave them all in awe
I leave them jaded, watching lights faded
Curtains closing and I return to my living
Never thought this flow was unforgiving
But rather a wake up, something to shake up
The world from off the stir, living up off the spur
Go and hit the city with the verse
Had to hit them with the verb
I had to hit them with the skill
Paying homage, Lauryn Hill
[Hook]
(They gonna remember me all along
I had to do it for Lauryn's Song) x6
[Outro]
I had to hit them with the skill
Paying homage, Lauryn Hill
How you gonna win
If you ain’t right within
Where it’s all in the skin
And saints frown on sin
If you didn’t know it then
And you call up a friend
And wild out, just to vent
Forgetting the blessing sent
Too busy to chase a pent
Than going to spare a pent
And then living inside a tent
Looking out at the Ghent
And the hustle becomes a hobby
The moments spent in the lobby
Over-hyping illuminati
Wishing upon a Bugatti
Medium sexualize the body
Oh this world is naughty
Might drown it in a tsunami
Off these lyrics I embody
Made me black and white
Living in and out of spite
Screw who’s wrong or right
I’m gonna live out my life
(Who’s that?)
That’s Mikey from down the way
That’s Mikey without his Jay
That’s Mikey that they play
That’s exactly what they say
Running mouths instead of feeding
It’s cold, but the city’s heating
This air ain’t meant for breathing
Only care when bodies bleeding

Hit this rap so raw, I leave them all in awe
