Joyner Lucas - What's That? lyrics

[Joyner Lucas - What's That? lyrics]

Oh oh, oh oh ooh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh ooh, oh oh, oh oh
Guess we gotta try this again

Dear Lord, I know that we been here before
(yeah) it's been a long time
I hope that you don't slam the door
I tried to walk away
But there's some shit I can't ignore
I could be wrong but seems like
You don't even care no more (Facts)
'Cause since our last talk
You ain't playin' fair no more (Uh)
And when I pray
It kinda feel like you ain't there no more
I still don't understand why niggas who
Deserve to die is livin'
But the ones who ain't deserve
It isn't here no more
And, no, I don't want no one else to die
Instead of tradin' souls
I got somethin' else in mind (yeah)
There's a lot of moments that I
Wish that I could change
I could fix a lot of pain if
You help me out this time (Joyner)
Maybe we can undo all the damage
Press rewind reset the clock and make it
So some niggas never die (yeah)
And maybe fix all the mistakes
Of those who still
Alive and give them all a second try (Damn)
Erase that Will Smith slap and
Turn him back around
Or wait 'til they get backstage
So they could have it out (yeah)
Or maybe make it so that
Chris chose a different joke (Uh)
A different topic
Somethin' Jada won't be mad about (Facts)
Matter of fact
Let's talk about the shit I'm sad about
When Pop Smoke accidentally leaked
That address out (Pssh)
Lord, you know the streets crazy
How you dropped the ball
When you know niggas keep a
Target on these rappers now?
(Baow, baow, baow)
And give us Kobe Bryant back
We a mess without him (Uh)
Take back the day he ever
Stepped inside the helicopter
Make him take the car instead
And forget the chopper
Maybe take a different route or
Get a different driver
Can't believe you took his daughter
And she left behind him
It's kinda hard to see the
Positive and that's the problem
I know you don't make mistakes, but I
Was hopin' you'd erase that bullshit
So his family won't be left without him
(yeah) and I wish I could fly to
Russia on a different mission
And make 'em pay for puttin'
Brittney Griner into prison (Word)
Or maybe you could bring her
Back to February 17th
And you could take the CBD
So she ain't flyin' with it (yeah)
Or maybe change that nine years
And give her nine minutes (Minutes)
Or better yet, change the laws
So they could stop trippin' (Trippin')
I know that's a lot to wish
And it ain't my business
But until you grant my wish
I ain't gon' stop wishin' (Ayy, ayy, ayy)
But Lord, listen, this shit urkin' me (Me)
How You take PNB? That shit absurd to me
(Why You do that shit?)
So many questions 'bout that shit
And it's disturbin' me (Word)
Like niggas can't eat
Waffles without security? (Security)
And niggas can't work hard and
Go buy some jewelry? (Jewelry)
That one hurt to see (Damn)
And by the end of the song
They gon' try to murder me and if they do
I hope my fans take it personally
I know you hear me talkin', Lord
Don't be curvin' me won't you take us back
To Kylie Jenner's party (Pssh)
Before them, shots hit the floor (Baow, baow)
Before the bullets ricocheted and
Leave a drippin' mall
We don't know the truth or if we misinformed
But either way, take it back and make Tory
Hop inside a different car (Word)
Broke my heart when DMX died
That hit the core
Feel like that nigga was an
Angel in a different form
Might've had a drug problem
Like he did before
But he was fightin' demons and I
Know that that's a different war
(That's a different war)
Mm, You must got a major ego
I ain't tryna disrespect or
Tryna play the hero (Nah)
But when You took Takeoff
You took my favorite Migos
Look, I don't know how that make
Sense 'cause it make zero (None)
And fuck a wrong place, wrong time
That ain't G though
Took that man right in his prime
That's plain evil (Pssh)
When Tommy Lister died
I cried and played CeeLo (Word)
'Cause, I can't even watch
Friday without sayin', "Deebo" (Facts, uh)
You know this shit got me stressed, right?
(yeah) starin' at the Bible
Tryna figure out who's next like
Why you take the ones who ain't
Deserve to see what death like? (Huh?)
Meanwhile, 6ix9ine, free
Livin' his best life (Huh?)
Go back to the day that he
Took the stand and confessed, right?
Tape his mouth shut, so he
Never talk to the feds, like
Make him do his time so
His niggas gotta do less, right?
Make him learn from Bobby, so
He can know what respect, like
Lord, forgive me for my language
And these bad words
But that Candace Owens bitch get
On my last nerve
How you gon' tell me that what
We witnessed on TV wasn't
Murder when we watched niggas turn
His ass into Casper? (Ayy)
George died from asphyxiation and
That's a factor
Fentanyl or not, he'd had never died
And his last words were, "I cannot breathe"
So really she gotta chill, or
Maybe they should trade places
So she could see how it feel
(Burn, for real)
Lil' bitch got me stressed, God (yeah)
Probably not prepared for what
I'm askin' next, god (Uh)
Bring Ye momma back 'cause he a mess, God
And he ain't been the same
Ever since Donda West died
Yeah, that's the day Kanye West died
First his heart, then his mind
Then the rest died
And if your bank account is overkill
Your soul could be broken still
Even a rich spirit, money can't buy (Uh)
I pray that Heavens watch me (Ayy)
Rest in peace Biz Markie, you got peace
(Peace)
Young Dolph, King Von, Drakeo, top three
(Three)
Black Rob, Trouble, Virgil and Shock G (Ayy)
Pat Stay, Kay Slay and Fred the God, geesh
Almost took Lil Tjay, but I'm happy he godly
Lord, You even took Black Panther
That's not G and when Sidhu Moose Wala got
Shot that shot me (I'm free)
Beggin' for Your guidance on
This ghetto earth
Frustrated, tryna understand how Heaven works
(Heaven works)
I'm just hopin' You could pull a couple
Strings or redo a couple things
So maybe we could get a second turn
(Second turn)
You took Juice from us, that forever hurts
(Forever hurts)
But puttin' the blame on You
That'll never work (Never work)
I know this ain't Your fault
It's the devil's work (Devil's work)
Devil's work (Devil's work)
