J-Formz - Here I Am, There I Go lyrics

I need you to smoke this blunt with me right
Now, man it’s been 4 years, 4 solid years
And you still just don’t get it
It’s whatever yo if you
Feel me just light up and let’s get it in

Shit, just a couple years back
It was here I am
Then, I was here for some years
Now it’s there I go
I’ve seen so called "fans" say
They would die for me
And after a little split up
Won’t even ride for me
I’ve come a long fuckin way
I don’t need that shit
I eat, sleep, and breathe, dog
I bleed this shit
I’m like an addict, I can’t help but spit
It’s like a drug
You know how many times I’ve tried to quit?
I just can’t
But I can tell you one this I don’t need
Is all these snakes pretendin like
They friends with me
I’ve always based myself upon keepin it real
So I just make record based on how I feel
That’s what you're always gonna get
You don’t like it? Press eject
Cause I don’t need spins and money
All I need is respect
I need me friends, my fam, my wife
And some weed
A pen, a pad, a mic, and a beat
And there I go

Here I go on the road again there I am up on
The stage here I go, playin
Star again there I go, there I go
(I made a mark we made a mark look
It’s gonna be what
It’s gonna be and you’re either gonna
Like it, or you’re not
And that’s fine just know
I ain’t gonna change)

Here’s another thing that really
Makes me laugh "Put me in your top friends
I’m your #1 fan!"
Or maybe they won’t even say that
They just ask me to do it, on some real shit
I don’t even play that
If I had some beef, would you have my back?
Would you even wanna be in
There if I didn’t rap?
If I got locked right now
Would you post my bail?
Are you sittin on this couch with me
Puffin my L? Were you there when I won
That showcase I Manhattan?
Would you know that I was Formz
If it weren’t for rappin?
Did you help me write my rhymes
Or deal with the pain?
Where the fuck was your house when
I was stuck in the rain?
Did you buy a mixtape? Or maybe a shirt?
Did you give me a beat? Did you help my work?
If you answered "no" for everything
I wrote with this pen
Then, what the fuck would make you
Think that I’m even your friend?
You tell me that

Here I go on the road again there I am up on
The stage here I go, playin
Star again there I go, there I go
(I mean, I could give a
Fuck less about MySpace
You know that’s just a point being made
But one thing I do care about is
Loyalty i care about respect
And if you haven’t given me either of
Those things, man, don’t take it personal
But you’re not my friend
Man you don’t even know me

Shit, not only with music
But my whole entire life
No matter what it was
I always put up a fight
I always had pride in myself
And backed my words
So, when you hear me say somethin
Just take it for what it’s worth
Sometimes, I feel like bein a friend is a job
They do it so you’ll be there
In case times is hard
They don’t really care what happens
They just put on an act
To better themselves, and then
They go and turn they’re back
Well, you don’t have to back me, son
I back myself
And every action I’ve ever done
Just speaks for it'self
I’ve brought joy in people’s lives
I’ve also brought misery
So you tell me, when I’m gone
Will you be missin me?
You never miss somethin ‘til it’s gone
Right? Well, how the fuck you supposed to
Miss it if it’s still here?
And I’m just sittin here, writin these songs
Right?
But now 5 albums deep, isn’t it still clear
Who I am?

Here I go on the road again there I am up on
The stage here I go, playin
Star again there I go, there I go
2x (Every album I drop, I feel like the
Same person with different outlooks similar
But different
It’s like, I learn things the older I
Get, but, the more I learn, it
Just adds more negativity to the reality of
It if you can’t appreciate the realness
That I bring to the table, I gotta
Question how real you are yourself
You know? Here I am man look at it like this
In all reality, one day, i won’t be here
No more probably before that, I won’t be
Making music no more, so, you know, when
That time comes
The question is: Are you gonna care
Or are you gonna be just
Pretending to care now cause I’m still here?
There I go, man just like that
I done came and went 1 more time…)
