Wanna Be Loved Lyrics – Joey Bada$$ ft. JID

[Intro: Joey Bada$$]
Yeah
Haha, yeah, n!ggas got jokes
Ten years, man
You and I gone have matching Benzes
(All the times)
Ten years? N!ggas more like ten days
(Always on my mind, yeah)
Ten days (Yeah, look, uh-uh)

[Verse 1: Joey Bada$$]
Just to sniff them roses
You might miss the violets
Overly contemptment
Just for something more exciting
Just to never find it (Yeah)
Like f**k 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 lived in way too much hostility
F**k if n!ggas feeling me or not
These just-just my shoes
Thirty thousand feet above the block
This just-just my view
B!tch, I ain't got sh!t to lose
Please don't make me lose my cool
I ain't got sh!t 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 gone be hard for me to say no (F**k)
Battling these evils, it's a struggle every day though
B!tch, I'm finna die about it
Where the f**k my halo? (B!tch)
Surrounded by my angels (Right)
They cover every angle (Facts)
Back up on my feet
And now the Devil tryna tango (Yeah)
Sometimes, the pot of gold is the rainbow
(Sometimes it is)
I said, "Sometimes, the pot of gold is, " f**k it

[Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
Long as the wheels keep turning
And fire keep burning
Then you know us real n!ggas don't stop
Long as the world keep spinning
And my girl keep grinning
Then you know we gone make it to the top
We just wanna be loved
We don't wanna be judged
We wanna be accepted
Never wanna be neglected
We just wanna be loved

[Verse 2: JID]
Look, uh
My n!gga just left the pen'
And he been tryna get back on his feet
His father died, he was inside
Said the cancer beat him
Baby momma playing hide
And seek with his lil' legacy
Allegedly she f**k with some lil' n!gga
That's 'bout to wedding ring her
A PO on his ass
He can't have so much as a misdemeanor
Or 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
N!gga back in the hood
He need some money so he antsy
And he bugging and thugging
Name buzzing in the city
With the safety on the semi
Like Xavier McKinney
Giant world, n!ggas' mind too mini
Ain't too many minorities seen the possibilities
Dodging enemies, mind jittery
Looking to find an identity
N!ggas be flodging, n!ggas be finicky
I hope you try to forgive me
If you gone 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

[Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
Long as the wheels keep turning
And fire keep burning
Then you know us real n!ggas don't stop
Long as the world keep spinning
And my girl keep grinning
Then you know we gone make it to the top
We just wanna be loved
We don't wanna be judged
We wanna be accepted
Never wanna be neglected
We just wanna be loved

[Outro: JID]
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
