Anderson .Paak - E & J Lyrics






I remember Augusta, Georgia
Big trees and the lemonade
But I was born in the western portion
My life will never be the same

Made me think about Chi city
Toe steppin' in the ballroom
Made me think about New York
I had nothing to lose

Devil's off my shoulders
I've found the road to freedom
Whatever don't break me down
Can only make me stronger
If there was nothing to lose
Life wouldn't have a meaning
Whatever don't break it down
Can only make me stronger

[?]
Started getting organized
And realized for real that this is more to rhymes
Instead of liking, I'm starting to love myself more
I'm drinking water and worrying about my health more
I did a lot of growing and nigga its kind of wise
Starving artist [?] like man personified
I'm an African and not an Afri-can't
And I know it's baffling but I got a master plan

Devil's off my shoulders
I've found the road to freedom
Whatever don't break me down
Can only make me stronger
If there was nothing to lose
Life wouldn't have a meaning
Whatever don't break me down
It only makes me stronger

Took a train to Kansas City
Black girls and the barbecue
The drove me to the church house
I swear I only tell the truth
Preacher man had a Rolla Royce
Preacher's wife had a white jacket
Everybody looking real broke
But the music wasn't bad

Devil's off my shoulders
I've found the road to freedom
Whatever don't break me down
Can only make me stronger
If there was nothing to lose
Life wouldn't have a meaning
Whatever don't break me down
It only makes me stronger

[?] Jesus I found love and it's alright, alright
[?] Jesus I found God and it's alright, alright

    ATTENTION, This is a must read!

    A while back, i was scrolling through the comments section of Masego's tiny desk performance- as one usually does. I casually scrolled through the comments- giving some likes to worthy candidates- until i came across a life altering comment. This person dared to imagine and mention publicly, an absolute musical insanity. I tried to move on from reading this but the thought kept bugging me for a good few weeks now. This guy requested that the tiny desk have a group performance of Tom Misch (guitar, vocals), Masego (sax, vocals), Anderson Paak (drums) and Thundercat (bass) to give the people what they need, freedom.

    But what if i told you there's more?

    Here's my proposal to you cultured musical sapiens:

    Firstly, we add FKJ into the mix, instrument of his choice- for the extra sustenance.
    Thundercat and FKJ slowly kickoff the performance when Tom gets his guitar and opens up for some Masego vocals and chit chat- some smooth stuff.

    Tom's guitar is going good as we all know it can until all of a sudden Anderson Paak is in the mix and drops in on the beat. Tom provides ad-libs to the Masego vocals and all is going good in groovy town.

    Bam!

    Thundercat kills the bass and it is silky. Paak seizes the opportunity and sings to Tom's guitar and Thundercat's easy bassline, whilst drumming on the beat.
    Tom winds it up and it provides the platform for Masego to go large with the sax.

    Masego is absolutely killing it but Thundercat starts getting very proactive with his bass. Masego and Thundercat are now smashing an unlikely duet and then there's a silence...


    Paak and Thundercat put the beat back and we now have Tom Misch on the vocals.

    Masego smiles at Tom,

    Paak grooves to the beat of his drums,

    Thundercat is buzzing,

    FKJ is there:

    We have music.
    This fades to the end of the performance.


    This is what I want. This is what you want. Let's collectively, as a species, make this happen. If you've been dedicated enough to come to the end of this scripture, I salute you my g.
    My name is Jordan and I probably have way too much time on my hands but the truth was needed to be proclaimed. You go well now, you in-tuned specimen.



    FKJ fades through with the harmonica.

    J.... M....

    Wooooow
