Wanna Be Loved

(album: 2000 - 2022)

[Joey Bada$$:]
Yeah
Haha, yeah, niggas got jokes
Ten years, man, you know I last vengeance (All the times)
Ten years? Niggas more like ten days (Always on my mind, yeah)
Ten days (Yeah, look, uh-uh)

Just to sniff them roses, you might miss the violence
Overly contemptment just for something more exciting
Just to never find it (Yeah), like fuck it, never mind it (Nah)
I wear my heart out on my sleeve, I just refuse to hide it
Vulnerability, peace and the tranquility (Uh-huh)
I give it all I got and to the best of my ability, yeah
I take it day by day with grace and that humility
'Cause I done live in way too much hostility
Fuck is niggas feeling me? And nah, these is just my shoes
Thirty thousand feet above the block, this just this my view
Bitch, I ain't got shit to lose, please don't make me lose my cool
I ain't got shit to prove to you, this ain't nothing new
What more do they want from me? (What?) Demons, they been haunting me (Yeah)
Satan tryna offer me a deal that's gon' be hard for me to say no (Fuck)
Battling these demons, it's a struggle every day, no
Bitch, I'm finna die about it, where the fuck my halo? (Bitch)
Surrounded by my angels (Right), they cover every angle (Facts)
Back up on my feet and now the devil tryna tangle (Yeah)
Sometimes, the pot of gold is the rainbow (Sometimes, it, yeah)
I said, "Sometimes, the pot of gold is," fuck it

Long as the wheels keep turning and fire keep burning
And you know it's real niggas, don't stop
Long as the world keep spinning and my girl keep grinning
And you know we gon' make it to the top
We just wanna be loved, don't wanna be judged
We wanna be accepted, never wanna be neglected
We just wanna be loved

[JID:]
Look, uh
My nigga just left the pen' and he been tryna get back on his feet
His father died, he was inside, said the cancer beat 'em
Baby momma playing hide and seek with his lil' legacy
Allegedly, she fucked with some lil' nigga, it's 'bout the wedding ring
A pill on his ass, he can't have so much as a misdemeanor
Oh, he going back, he doing bad so he been heavy drinking
Show him love for Heaven's sake but I don't know what the hell he thinking
A cycle that we gotta break or we just run in place
One hand could wash the other, both hands could wash the face
I'ma stand beside my brother, take the stand and fabricate
Make sure that you good, you need a hug, you need a handshake, nigga?
Back in the hood, you need some money, so he antsy and he bugging
And thugging, I ain't buzzing in the city
With the safety on the semi like Xavier McKinney
Giant world, niggas mind too many
Ain't too many minorities seen the possibilities
Dodging enemies, mind jittery, looking to dine an identity
Niggas be flodging, niggas be finicky, I hope you try to forgive me
If you gon' ride with me, then ride with me
Got a Glock-9 and God with me
Gotta watch mine, keep eyes with me at the stop sign

[Joey Bada$$:]
Long as the wheels keep turning and fire keep burning
And you know it's real niggas, don't stop
Long as the world keep spinning and my girl keep grinning
And you know we gon' make it to the top
We just wanna be loved, don't wanna be judged
We wanna be accepted, never wanna be neglected
We just wanna be loved

[Outro:]
Blessings come like one-and-one, baby
But you crossed my mind
We all pressed for time
I think now's the time
Why you act so hard to find, baby?
It blows my mind
This might define crazy
I be losing my mind, baby
