Lyrics to Valleys by Kota The Friend & Statik Selektah
(Statik Selektah)
I seen the lowest valleys
I seen the highest peaks
I wanna grow the family
I want a life of peace
I got a list of all the *** that I would like to see before I kick the bucket or somebody stick a knife in me
In a UAE in Jumeriah wit my wife-to-be
No exaggeration when I tell you that my life a dream
Songs in the key of life
Back when I was broke, took the key and whipped the Kia like a Benz, I’mma be alright
Back when I was low, when all I really had was me, I read and meditated and I made it on my own
At my lowest, people asking me for favors on my phone
****** only see the surface, there was layers to my growth
Plottin my escape to the islands like *** everybody
Greetin peoples flaws with silence, don’t judge anybody
*** be the ones that’s violent, don’t touch anybody
Memories come to the surface when the Henny got me
Wonder what it woulda been, feelin like a kid
At the window lookin in
All the *** I coulda did
Learnin when you feel like it’s over, it’s the beginning
Even winning over odds, they can’t believe that you did it
Now it’s on
Trust me it’s gon be alright
You gonna make it some way
I’m sorry that you feel low
I see you, I feel yo pain
I show you love when you down
Cause I remember those days
Just be right here with me now
We gonna figure this out
Auntie told me to surrender, I said, “How, Sway?”
*** is colder than December and the clouds grey
I just hate when I remember all the foul things muhfuckas did when they saw me on a down day
I’m on my give grace, get peace, zen ***
Only drop bombs on the track on some flex ***
Filter out the old, I am focused on the next ***
Everything I do is gon be bigger like it’s Texas
*** a hater, even if they hatin’ they respect it
Even if they never say it, they be catchin lessons
I’mma keep it pushing, I’mma catch another blessing
And write another verse that could make a ***** head spin
Polaroid flick in the crib with the kids, uh
Polaroid flick in the whip in Madrid, uh
How we made it here? If you knew where I been, you would trip
Where I’m from, we ain’t never had ***
Trust me it’s gon be alright
You gonna make it some way
I’m sorry that you feel low
I see you, I feel yo pain
I show you love when you down
Cause I remember those days
Just be right here with me now
We gonna figure this out
