Joe Budden - No Love Lost lyrics

Mic check, mic check 1-2 1-2
Made a lot of mishaps, lot of mistakes
Lot of missteps grown shit though
Is when you can recognize that
And I recognize that, and real recognize that
Talk to em

Last word, check it, unbeatable force
Insurmountable object
Bull should've known better than
Counting me out, i'm from the projects
So if I ever do it for greed
Indeed something is wrong
Prepare for the future
Remember I used to get heat from the oven on
They wanted to see Budden gone
Fiend'd out on sour
But nobody helped put Budden on
Had to bring my own power so
I'm having a private party
That only myself attends
And if the DJ plays the song to my soul
It'll give it'self a cleanse
They telling me all the pain
I ever felt was self-infringed
But, I had help from friends
One even held the syringe
Architect of my own path
I'd like to think it's designed the best
Defied the odds
I never aged while giving time a test
No niggas on house arrest
I'm on a minor rest
You trying to call me or text me
Don't even bother
I'm trying to give mind a rest
I got a treasure but
It's content is invisible
Was filled before with shit that
I thought I treasured, but made me miserable
My affairs together, here forever
Yeah I'm back to work
Learned in order to lose love
Probably gotta have it first

My life's a crap shoot, my dice are loaded
Ain't no stopping me most interesting man
A hard place is between a rock and me
I'm torn within, and my eyes are heavy
I'm born again, just means I died already
Means I survived already
So fuck they want with me?
World been against me so long
Misery hates my company
Isolated my whole life
Not many know who Joseph is
In order to reciprocate love
You gotta notice it
Gotta recognize it, gotta feel it first
Gotta be let inside it
Feel it's hurt and then kneel to it's worst
If you contain it, don't hide it
Gotta reveal it first
And when you think you hit rock bottom
Gotta feel it worse
Or, my rule book is just dated
And for you to truly appreciate it
You gotta at least be hated mama I made it
If anyone know my way was hard
They prayed for my Downfall on deaf ears
I was praying to God
So God, I loved love till it resented me
And if it's still a stranger
Then I love who it pretends to be

No Love Lost no love found
They found a little bit though
I don't know where they found it out
But it was there
So I guess the moral of the story
Is as you mature, so will it
Just gotta find it one
