The Journey by Devlin
The Journey Lyrics
Year of Release: 2012
Verse 1
- Faced with the choice I had
- I was lucky with the boys I had
- So I stuck to my guns
- Like I handful of no more nails
- so I picked up a strap
- And it paid off, can't sail off yet though
- I've got a lot of work left
- Gotta rep for those who rep me
- From when I wasn't anyone and nobody heard dev's
- But now it's all changed round
- I've got so lucky it's im James Brown
- So pass me a tin, I'm Montana
- I hope you like red because I'm painting the town
- It feels like a million years
- That I've been waiting and been frustrated
- but now its orchestrated and now I'm ordering a riot
- Look who s back to torture the sound
- You couldn't keep me away to long
- I became more strong as the race went on
- I've been writing rhymes for 9 years
- In the blink of an eye that's 9 years gone
- Maybe I should have been a doctor
- and help anyone who was weak get strong
- Who knows, but all I know now
- is that the life I've got, trying to grind for my spot
- look back to my youtube footage
- and you'll see my rise to the top
- I'm the guy who inspired these blocks
- ever since 05, I've thrived in the fire and it's hot
- Me and ghetts made changes
- Two MC's writing the pages
- and gave young guys
- ?
- to proceed with writing rhymes that are dangerous
- A license to be lyrical
- Inside of the life of a ridicule
- I cut through my own umbilical cord
- With a flick knife and I turned up in the psychical
- As man in the flesh
- I need answers like I need ?
- finding yourself is hard at its best
- but on the large scale, part of the test
- So we solider on
- trying to do what's right on the road to wrong
- All the highs and lows and the times in the cold
- Just made me equipped for the time that I've got
- Left on the planet, I've got to run till my legs can't hack it
- Thought I was gone then you're wrong
- Devlins here and it's ? not ?
Devlin
- Follow me on my Journey
- Follow me on my Journey
- Follow me
Verse 2
- Way back in my early days
- they wouldn't fuck me like a bird with aids
- Now it's all lover when I walk on the stage
- But those that I wanted to love me, escaped
- So now I'm creating a canvas
- Take to a camera, capture a still
- And in your own personal ways
- Develop the negatives in your own brain
- and take what you want, when you will
- This journey is ill but I'm ? it still
- Fixated on striking it riot
- The goals in sight now that I'm a little further up field
- I'm stronger than ever, incredible hunk with his own vendetta
- Can't drop bombs on devs in a set up
- Step back let me wander at will
- I smile at the grimace inside of this ill pill grimmage
- Out of my mind and my mind is my limit
- Then I think you'll find that I can what I like till the whole films finished
- And you know that I will make the most of my deal
- Over the next twelve months I've got to get close to a mill
- Drinks in the air I'm lifting the spirits
- Just like weights on the bar, tell the pretty lady to wait at the bar
- Buy her more bailees and wait for the car
- I ain't a killer but I sure do kill it
- Now I seen the best of days on this escapade
- On walking on bricks pre-laid
- The quest was paved
- Now I bet you wish you could live it
