I think I put strange things together, I mean you know that, I'm always looking for how Do you mix all in water, you know, one of those kind of things And once you realize what's driving that engine is the story, then you think, okay, then what Stories do I want to, do I want to tell Yo Tell me is it all worth it Fuel the flame, put the play in the game, so that pleasure meets purpose Is it all worth it Make a promise that you'll never stay the same, stay morphing and merging Is it all worth it Fine lines 'tween good tI'mes and cosign searching Is it all worth it But is that really all worth it, uh Sending a signal out to whomever I figure making magic or moments, whichever's more clever Sailed through bad weather, trailed the uncharted waters for a better chance to find hidden treasures But the money is whatever My ties to the world might get severed End up as a cryptic mystic 'Cause this endless grind ain't realistic On the daily, I flip my mindset, cause I ain't all that optI'mistic Yeah, I want to be heard without the vanity Giving my all soul without losing my sanity, shining 'Cause all work and no play makes Jae lose humanity All work and no play makes Jae feel the gravity Pressure to take aI'm and never miss Because my I'mpact is measured by my hit list Some new method or mantra to remember, so truly If this message find you well then please return the sender Fuel the flame, put the play in the game, so that pleasure meets purpose Is it all worth it Make a promise that you'll never stay the same, stay morphing and merging Is it all worth it Fine lines 'tween good tI'mes and cosign searching Is it all worth it But is that really all worth it, uh Tryna farm good karma Drop a spirit bomb from all that I'm saying All thanks to Toriyama Polish my living armor, so I could guard my work from the drama I'm more focused than I ever was, forming solutions When I started all I knew was using minor illusions Then I leveled up to throw my voice and cause confusion Slick trick that I learned from my own amusement The gifts I've grown, the tools I've owned To reap a large harvest from the seeds I've sown I've made up my mind, put my points in providing To come back tenfold, all in divine tI'ming Pointing the way I'm guiding, hands busy designing I'm talking big strategy when putting group assignments Present but still rewinding I've known my road less traveled is forever winding 'Cause it's worth it To fuel the flame, put the play in the game, so that pleasure meets purpose 'Cause I know it's worth it Make a promise that I'll never stay the same, stay morphing and merging 'Cause it's all worth it Fantasizing 'bout good tI'mes and putting that work in 'Cause it's all worth it I know it really is All worth it
