Wanna Be Heard

Ja'Quez

6

It′s like sometimes I don't think y′all understand who I am man

I'm just a good kid from Suffolk that wanna rap

I don't represent no colors I represent my lil sisters and brothersI′m the oldest nigga

Yea

Regardless if you fuck with me or not

Ima always have that hunger just to reach the top spot

I wanna be the best that I can be

Best of my ability

I′m not worried bout negativity 2019

I'm focused on me

I′m focused on God

He gon put me in positions my talent can take me far

The almighty God and God of bars, crazy combo

Any nigga going toe to toe is out the convo

Win or lose I never change like Rondo

You niggas act accordingly hand in ya back like Gonzo

Saying you got guns but can't shoot, niggas Lonzo

Say you moving pounds from here to Maryland like Monroe

You ain′t a failure until you quit your dreams

And my grandma always told me I can be what I wanna be

And chase my goals

And never let nobody stop my dreams

Stay true to the grind and keep a supportive team

I gotta succeed, gotta do this full time

Used to do it part time but now I'm snapping off with rhymes

2015, I took a year off the music

2016, man like was just confusing

2017, I lost my grandma, it was therapeutic

2018, I put in work, now I′m more fluent

Cause I ain't know which way I wanted to take it

Now it's 2019 it′s time to be heard

No more waiting, zero patience

Yea yea that′s my word

Make a statement with these nouns and verbs

I represent the liquor that poured out on the curb

Listen to my nouns and verbs

Man I wanna be heard

Like a cattle of sheep while y'all sleep

I be up, cooking up, all day

Like a mad scientist, in the laboratory

Motherfuck what a critic gotta say

Ima be heard

I love this rap shit, mainly soul shit

I miss this boom bap rap I wish this shit would come back

Man I miss Common from the 90s and the 2000s

Outkast, Kanye before he started wildin

I miss that J Dilla, I miss that Pete Rock

DMX when he said shutem down open up shop

I miss that old Jay-Z, he was giving out bars and shit

Him and Nas had the beef was happy when they squashed that shit

I miss that Mobb Deep, Kweli, Cassidy, 50 Cent, Dipset

Wait a minute I ain′t finished yet

Dr. Dre, Ghostface, Scarface, Mase, Lil Kim, Lil Wayne when he was snapping on the mixtapes

MF Doom, Lauren Hill, Rakim had skills

Q-Tip was good for ya ears

Busta Rhymes always made the shit that we can feel

The Lox was the hardest group because they kept it real

I'm talking real music, the good era of hip hop

It′s sad when I turned three I lost biggie and Tupac

And to pay respect, ima take two shots

Cause they my influences so I can't stop nigga

Yea yea that′s my word

Make a statement with these nouns and verbs

I represent the liquor that poured out on the curb

Listen to my nouns and verbs

Man I wanna be heard

Like a cattle of sheep while y'all sleep

I be up, cooking up, all day

Like a mad scientist, in the laboratory

Motherfuck what a critic gotta say

Ima be heard
