Lyrics

Verse 1
My father said I can be harsh like a shark bite

I had to look in the mirror and say, yeah he right

Cause I value unfiltered truth over personal feelings

It's been a while since I cared about how they feel

I remember they use to treat like dirt

So of course I have hit them where it hurts

Uno Reverse

Now the next move on you

For your troubles, do me a favor and draw two

Draw four, if you really do want more

In depth analysis on my whole life

How i went from being doubted and counted out

To now people only loving me out spite

I see the green shade of envy in their eyes

As my name and notoriety begin to rise

That's why I put my faith in the most high

Stay down and fix my gaze on the vast sky

Where the outside noise can't interfere

From the start I made intentions very clear

I'm not looking for revenge, I'm seeking justice

The mightiest of the people, providing a service

To those who never thought much of themselves

I can relate, where your heart, mind, body, and soul, constant debate

Of whether or not I even deserve it

Neglecting my own work knowing damn well I earned it

But God had big plans set out for me

So it shouldn't be a surprise why I rep JOE

The first shall be last and the last shall be first, as i bury my feelings inside of a hearse

And fully immerse in my love for the music

Not doing this for the fame or the fortune
favors the bold, and I've been emboldened

Through consistency, and unbridled devotion

Biggest of fish's conquering the ocean

Traversing, all throughout the seven seas

Without the aid of a map or a compass

Melanated skin glowing bright from the suns kiss

Imagine not putting my skillsets on display

Due to past critiques leaving me in disarray

But now that I've made it through the fire and the fray

I don't care what they have to say because I'm

Chorus
Stuck in my ways
And i don't want to change
(I don't intend to change)
(And don't intend to change)
I've grown so comfortable
With things remaining the same

I'm stuck in my ways
And you may find it strange
Even insufferable
To know that I've became so,

Stuck in my ways
I know I'm hard to gauge
But I'm not invulnerable
Despite what others claim

I'm stuck in my ways
And I'm not going to change
Even if you're uncomfortable
With me remaining the same.

I'm, I'm — I'm stuck (x3)
Because I'm stuck in my ways
I'm, I'm — I'm stuck (x3)
Because I'm stuck in my ways


Bridge
Stuck

Stuck like a key that got bent in the lock

Stuck like a ship, in the queue, waiting to dock

Stuck like a stonecrop growing in a rock

Stuck. Yeah, I'm stuck.

Stuck like a man caught up in quicksand

Stuck like a child at home with flu

Stuck in a jam, with no idea what to do

Stuck
Yeah, I'm stuck

Stuck in between a rock and a hard place

Weighing whether or not my dreams are even worth the chase

Or if this journey is something I'm willing to embrace

Hold on tight, hold on for dear life

Solid words of advice from those who paid the price

To live a life full of glitz and glamor

Just to be hit with the truth like a hammer

M.C. energy, so you know you can't touch this

Quick subtle reference for those who get the gist

Seven year absence to restore order

Accumulating deep resentment like a hoarder

Thank God I let it go, although, I'm

Chorus
Stuck in my ways
And i don't want to change
(I don't intend to change)
(And don't intend to change)
I've grown so comfortable
With things remaining the same

I'm stuck in my ways
And you may find it strange
Even insufferable
To know that I've became so,

Stuck in my ways
I know I'm hard to gauge
But I'm not invulnerable
Despite what others claim

I'm stuck in my ways
And I'm not going to change
Even if you're uncomfortable
With me remaining the same.

I'm, I'm — I'm stuck (x3)
Because I'm stuck in my ways
I'm, I'm — I'm stuck (x3)
Because I'm stuck in my ways
