Here I Am, There I Go

[Intro: J-Formz]
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…

[Verse 1: J-Formz]
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 triеd to quit?
I just can’t, but I can tell you one this I don’t need
Is all thesе 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…

[Chorus: Sample, Bob Seger - Here I Am On The Road Again, (J-Formz)]
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.)

[Verse 2: J-Formz]
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…

[Chorus: Sample, Bob Seger - Here I Am On The Road Again, (J-Formz)]
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

[Verse 3: J-Formz]
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 itself
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?

[Chorus: Sample, Bob Seger - Here I Am On The Road Again, (J-Formz)]
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…)
