Da’ T.R.U.T.H., Jasmine Janá - CHASING GHOSTS lyrics

Yeah i don't want no crown, no
It's gone weigh me down
It's gone weigh me down it's gone weigh me
Yeah i don't want no crown, no
It's gone weigh me down
It's gone weigh me down

Yeah they tried to rush the album
I told them wait for it (Alright)
It's too complicated homie, I'm brainstorming
Umbrellas in the airman, the inks pouring
A band of gorillas swing
Through the rainforest
They told me keep posting
Pics to stay relevant
I guess I'm addressing the pink elephant
White lines, blades on the glass
Homie they chase ghosts
Night vision I seen it all
Through them yellow tints
I'm a cross between a millennial and an OG
The hunger still burning in me
Homie I don't sleep
Lost boys breaking dawn when the suns low
Somebody's blood was already drawn
I ain't got to grow teeth
30's the new 20 that's what they say to me
I'm in my 40's I'm proud
And I'm aging gracefully
Hip hop I knew for sure
It was a global phenomenon
When sub-woofers was banging while I
Was touring through Ancient Greece
I never tried to be on
It just happened for me
What does it mean to be
On? I hate that category
Bright lights and tour buses not
Even half the story
That's why I feel bad for
Rappers that's chasing after glory dang

I don't want no crown, no
It's gone weigh me down

Yeah see I grew up on cassette tapes
I guess I'm just as good
As everybody except Drake
10 years under the microscope they spectate
Expectations high
That's how they gauge my success rate
Boi, it's been a shift in the paradigm
Yeah, this is not a sprint it's a marathon
It's a shame how the thought
Of losing steam in your career can make an
Artist feel terrified, dang
That's why we need God involved
Felt like New Year's Eve when
I dropped the ball keep the shot close
Crop the pic if the crowd is small
Cause, I don't want my peers to
Think that any ground is lost
Boi, that's why I walked off of social media
Felt so good that's when my
Focus started speeding up
Not having that pressure on me
Man freed me up
Because I could get a million likes but
It's never going to be enough
They just did a standing ovation for me
But these days I just want
To talk the creation story
What's the difference between Gilgamesh
And the real flood
People have such a hard time
Dealing with faded glory dang

I don't want no crown, no
It's gone weigh me down

Yeah strong foundation I can't deviate
Derek Minor told me that I am the Kobe in CHH
But, if I'm watching everybody else
God could be doing great things with
Me that I won't appreciate
Boi, you run out of breath
When you chase things
That's why am keeping the main
Thing the main thing
Cause if the focus ain't up
And Jesus ain't first
You will go into a depression
When the fame leaves
Boi, are you not entertained now?
I promise to God this is not a game now
Wale said if I don't get the
Fans that I'm looking for
I'm gonna pull the trigger and
Blow my brains out
Celebrity life is so glorified
Pictures with entertainers, high profile
But, if all of that really meant anything
Then tell me why Robin Williams would
Hang himself from a doorknob
Boi, four reality show offers
I turned them down
Calls to do major collabs, I turned them down
Not that I'll never do it
Just don't want to blur the lines
Nobody chasing ghosts homie I'm on the job
Nobody chasing crowns boi I'm on the job

I don't want no crown, no
It's gone weigh me down
It's gone weigh me down it's gone weigh me
I don't want no crown, no
It's gone weigh me down
It's gone weigh me down

It's gone weigh me down, yeah
It's gone weigh me down, down, down
It's gone weigh me down, yeah
