Ivan B – Moment lyrics

[Verse 1]
A lot of you say you're real
Then come around with some phony outcomes
You don't put in the work
Don't wanna look in the mirror, like, "How come?"
I get pennies for my thoughts
What I say is common sense
At least you got what you paid for if you don't like anything that I said
I'd give you the shirt off my back, but you couldn't see it
That's why I've felt so closed off
Everyone's there for the come-up
I wonder who's there on the day you fall off
I wonder why people don't like when I talk about God
But it's cool when somebody gets shot
Cool when somebody gets caught
Up in a drug they can't control 'cause they said it was hot
Too many problems to deal with
Too many loved ones are lost
They called us a Christian country
Pointin' guns just to get a point across, agh
Underdog, a hundred lions in me
Is that the pride living inside?
Drop the ball, everybody judges
I see 'em all sittin' courtside
Emptied my pains, still feelin' painful
[Hangin' the people are things that'll hain you?]
Letting it go is the person I came to
Don't forget everything that has made you
Every window in my heart's tinted back in it
In event, how I invented
How's the money? I'm a lieutenant
Didn't drop the mirror, I'm the cracks in it, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Lately I've been stayin' up till 3 A.M
I kinda like it better when I'm on my own
Writing up a text that I should not send
I know I've been distant, yeah

[Chorus]
I just need a moment, need a moment
On my own, on my own
I just need a moment, need a moment
On my own, on my own
On my own

[Post-Chorus]
I know I've been distant
I know I've been distant, I don't know
I just need a moment
I just need a moment on my own

[Verse 2]
Time is money, it's been changin' me
Custom made is what I'm made to be
How many times you gon' look at the past and not the person we came to be?
Start up engine, I roll up the window, got nothin' to say
I guess dreams got roaming charges
Every connection will fade
That's the only thing I know
LA out to Chicago
Real Ones Only, that's the motto (yeah)
Stay ready for tomorrow (woo!)
Never know what's gon' happen to you till it happens to you
Till people askin', "Yo, what happened to you?"
Till you lookin' at your friends, "What happened to you?"
Till you lookin' at your life, "What happened to you?"

[Pre-Chorus]
Lately I've been stayin' up till 3 A.M
I kinda like it better when I'm on my own
Writing up a text that I should not send
I know I've been distant, yeah

[Chorus]
I just need a moment, need a moment
On my own (I just need a moment), on my own (I just need a moment)
I just need a moment, need a moment
On my own (I just need a moment), on my own (I just need a moment)
On my own

[Post-Chorus]
I know I've been distant
I know I've been distant, I don't know
I just need a moment
I just need a moment on my own
