Jelly Roll - Lose Your Soul Lyrics






Back when I was younger 15 years old
I was tryna figure out where I'm gonna go
I was out tryna find a block of gold
A rainbow, I was chasing a rainbow
Used to ride out every day all alone
Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold
Now I think about the words my mama told
She said you can have it all, but don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul

When I was 15 they said I was destined to fail
Preacher man told me I was headed to
Hell, he told me death was the wage of sin
And a young man with so much anger caged within
Riding round reminiscence I'm thinking how I used to be
Judge said I was a danger to my community
But back then I felt like I knew it all
I was selling cocaine when other kids were shooting ball
I'm tellin' you all the truth my life was a movie all
Shit you better tell them red we've been through it all
From close caskets to different court dates
But because I know life ain't a short thing

Back when I was younger 15 years old I
Was trying to figure out where Im gunna go
I was out trying to find a block of gold
A rainbow
I was chasing a rainbow
Use to ride out everyday all alone
Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold
Now I think about the words my mama told
She said you can have it all but
Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul

Mama said there will be days like this...
I was a young man just trying to make it rich
Cocaine was a rich mans high and I was broke
So I found a couple rich guys that snorted coke
I remember rollin' up brown weed in a Philly
Smoking it and hearing scenes probably
That shit was silly
And now it's hard to believe that I was that guy at all
And now I keep on slippin' and I'm trying not to fall
I'm fucking different woman trying to not get involved
Cause the saying goes the higher we fly the harder we fall
And through it all God never let me go I
Said a prayer every day and I kept my soul

Back when I was 15 years old I was
Trying to figure out where I'm gonna go
I was out tryna find a block of gold
A rainbow
I was chasing a rainbow
Used to ride out everyday all alone trying to figure out why the
Worlds so cold, now I think about my mama told me
She said you can have it all but sent lose your soul
Don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul

I'm feeling like the phoenix how I'm raisin from the
Ashes, now every mixed tape is a white trash Classic
To tell you all the truth it's been a long road
We came along way but we still got so far to go
Do this for my brother in the federal pen
And I promise you your not going back ever again
Back then we were kids trying not to make the news
Now we got this music thing and I think its breaking through but hold
Up back then we had it so rough used to
Do a couple shows but no body showed up
And now everybody knows us there like here comes trouble
Damn, I can't wait til I see my brother struggle
Come on

Back when I was 15 years old I was trying to figure out
Where I'm gonna go, I was out trying find a block of gold
A rainbow I was chasin' a rain bow
Used to ride out everyday all alone
Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold now I think about the
Words my mama told she said you can have it
All, but don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul
Don't lose your soul

    Been listening to this like 5 times a day in rehab-fucking love the chorus such a great song and voice, very much relate to the lyrics, coming from a real place with alot of honestly amd humility and a great message, thank you jell roll 😎🤗

  82. T.... M....

    Damn. I know I'm not the only one who can relate to your lyrics. All your songs... I don't just hear em. I feel em.
    -I recently hit my rock bottom. And man it's f*@#ing cold down here. The shakes,chills, sweats,kicks& stomaching cramping, unlike any flu you've EVER encountered!! All started when Doc got me hooked, cut me off without even a warning?!! I know.. really right then and there was MY choice and MINE ALONE. I own my shit. I found another way to numb my pain. Days, months, years went by and I had every reason to quit man! But.. I'm an addict. Two BEAUTIFUL daughter's!! Lord. They are perfect in EVERY SINGLE WAY! My babies.. Ughhh... my poor babies. -Even after being hospitalized for a month and doctor's telling me just one more shot could be my last. Yeah.. that's with anyone sweetheart. I've seen first hand..my man, my brother, but the last I couldn't pull outta that overdose like the 5 before, and called the paramedics. He made it 🙏
    Being told while looking at x-rays that I'll need open heart surgery or possible heart transplant. But I'm an addict. Automatically I get slammed to the bottom of that list. Get outta the hospital... Methadone wore off and withdraws had me kicking. Use crank to breakeven with the nods. Reached out for help to a handful of resources and got turned away. I've seen darkness, I've lost people who meant THE WORLD to me. But that pain can't be compared to the pain I felt having my daughters ripped from my hands and placed with complete strangers. This hate I have for myself goes deeper then any needle ever could. More painful then heroine herself could cover or numb. This fucking hurts man! But this hurt I feel today... It's only temporary. These shakes&chills are slowly fading, actually kept my food down today. I feel beyond weak... But I'm digging for my strength!!!! It's been a long time since I could say with confidence that I'm.... THREE DAYS CLEAN! And one step closer to getting my babies back. Addiction sucks... Sobriety sucks... The system sucks... Right here, Right now... EVERYTHING FUCKING SUCKS! But, I can swallow that pill. Tomorrow may hurt more, it might just hurt a little less. But I've survived crazier shit.. lol with tough love, a jelly roll album slapping in the background and a horrible tasting strip to ease the pain... Breathing is getting easier and there is hope at the end of the tunnel. One voice isn't shit amoungst billions.. but if I could be that one voice heard, one word;my word put out there would be... Just don't. Not even once. Heroine is a beast you don't want to bare. Jelly Roll you are an inspiration to millions brother. Keep writing.. your voice is saving more then you know!!

  83. [.... M....

    I FUCKING LOVE YOU JELLY! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD NEVER STOP MAKING MUSIC! Ive been listening go you back before "I sell drywall"! You'll always be my go to! I don't have a favorite music genre, I listen to jelly!

  84. t.... a....
