🎶LYRICS🎶

To the stars and beyond (hey) JR

Luv no more, I ain’t got no luv, ain’t got no luv, no more (yea)
Got me up

(VRZ)
I use to know feelings
Way back as an empath, showed compassion still they changed like seasons… for no reason
If you switch better own it (yea)
This the me that they wanted (yea)
I come with static whatever you want

(HOOK)
Luv no more 
I ain’t got no luv, ain’t got no luv, no more (oh)
Luv no more, I ain’t got no luv, ain’t got no luv no more
Luv No More
(Awh) My heart turned cold it’s over
(Awh) Luv ni more I ain’t got no luv no more 

(VRZ)
Tell these fuck niggas to hop up off my dick (get off my shit for real)
I see the hate in they eyes but shit don’t phase me
Sacrifices I put up for this
All for the family so I can’t let ‘em take from me (fuck no)
These niggas got time to play I’m out here tryna fill up my plate
Can’t see how they afford to hate cause these niggas ain’t getting paid
Had luv where my heart use to be but nowadays I just skate (skate)
Cross up like I’m CP3 play D fore you fall on yo face
I ain’t got time or the patience yea
No matter the bribe fuck the snake shit yea
Life too short I won’t fake shit
I don’t makeshift no
I can’t trust no more
Tell me what that’s for
My back felt too many knives

(HOOK)
Luv no more 
I ain’t got no luv, ain’t got no luv, no more (oh)
Luv no more, I ain’t got no luv, ain’t got no luv no more
Luv No More
(Awh) My heart turned cold it’s over
(Awh) Luv ni more I ain’t got no luv no more

🎶 LYRICS 🎶

• P.Y.E (Protect Yo Energy)•

Written by JR Carter
Produced by Sapjer

(Intro)
Sounds from Jupiter

(Verse)
Sometimes I can’t breathe
Lungs overcrowded full capacity
Life’s a roller coaster the analogy
Gotta protect my energy

When no one corner, I’ll be right there
Showed love I ain’t see no mirror
When you ask now “JR being weird”
Mhm, is that right? I really don’t care
If they say I changed I adapted
Every step I take forward that’s two steps in the past tense
I ain’t tryna backtrack I ain’t going back there
One leap gravity pull me back here
Reality like some people try to weigh me down

(Hook)
Life is a mystery
I gotta figure out
Ok way to beat this game
Ok I gotta get paid

I’m tryna navigating this thing called life
I almost found my way still on my grind
Back out of my space if you wasting my time
Don’t wast my time

(Verse)
No man fit to waste my time
Double up that’s me and mine
I can never forget the silent nights and them lonely tides
I know pain I just work through the reps
This what I’m made for so put in my best til I ain’t got nothing left
And still I want get no rest
Lot of n****s switched and chose they side I’m feeling lightweight 
Use to be blind by my love nowadays I’m out the way
I’m out the way M.I.A
(Sugar Honey Ice Tea)

Show me who you are I can’t hear
Asystole theres no pulse right there
Speak yo truth don’t false round here
I had to put my heart away
They gon say it’s magic how I’m balling just like Hardaway

(Hook)
Life is a mystery
I gotta figure out
Ok way to beat this game
Ok I gotta get paid

I’m tryna navigating this thing called life
I almost found my way still on my grind
Back out of my space if you wasting my time
Don’t wast my time

| Outro |
Don’t waste my time, I won’t waste yours
They wanna test, then go take course
Can’t play with my life cause they’ll take yours (2x)

🎶LYRICS🎶

• BREATHE •

Written by JR Carter
Produced by Sapjer

(Intro)
Just cause the struggle ain’t seen don’t mean it ain’t real
Wo you never know what’s really going on
Who gon block the blessings they got no defence? (Yea)
Cancel all the noise out

(Verse)
My way
From the stars and beyond, JR.
Eÿé Ayé
Life can do damage to the point we lose our way 
Most of us ain’t ask for this here in the first place
But yet we strive for better times
It’s a mindset thing win it over

(HOOK)
Breathe - Inhale
Breathe - Exhale
Breathe - Inhale
Breathe - take a sec

Breathe - Inhale 
Breathe - Exhale
Breathe - Inhale 
Breathe

Breathe in and out let carbon die outside (dioxide) your lungs
Take a moment just breathe (breathe)

(VERSE)
It’s ok to need a break
It’s ok to take a breather
Melt the pressure away
Take the weight off of your shoulders
Movin’ Kosher
How we supposed to
Life’s problems we ain’t opposed to
No time for the bull
We just doze through
Trials and tribulations tested patience we still going
We don’t oppose life we compose it
And I know life dey be rough but we can’t ever give up 


(HOOK)
Breathe - Inhale
Breathe - Exhale
Breathe - Inhale
Breathe - take a sec

Breathe - Inhale 
Breathe - Exhale
Breathe - Inhale 
Breathe

Breathe in and out let carbon die outside (dioxide) side your lungs
Take a moment just breathe (breathe)

(Outro)
If you got something inside then let it out
Find someone you trust and talk it out
We all wanna find a better route
I know the feeling can’t escape but suicide ain’t the way
I promise you’ll see the brighter days

No matter where you are in life always remember breathe just breathe
