J Blue Effort Lyrics
Effort by J. Blue
Your stunning view is disappearing
Behind four million dollar walls
Not that you had the chance to see it
With your second job
And you realize that no one cares how hard you have to work
Or that you're secretly a genius on your second book
It's been a long time coming
You are only pages away
From being called the new Norman Mailer
From having your own parade
There's not a lot of effort to
Put in to staying here
Move across the world
See if I care
A crane is hanging in the night sky
Wrapped up in holiday lights
Construction ringing rhythmless in
A somewhat silent night
And you realize that no one here is waiting for your call
And if you jumped into the river
No one cares at all
It's been a long time coming
You are only pages away
From showing up at your old high school
Carrying your N.B.A
There's not a lot of effort to
Put in to staying here
Move across the world
See if I care
Behind four million dollar walls
Not that you had the chance to see it
With your second job
And you realize that no one cares how hard you have to work
Or that you're secretly a genius on your second book
It's been a long time coming
You are only pages away
From being called the new Norman Mailer
From having your own parade
There's not a lot of effort to
Put in to staying here
Move across the world
See if I care
A crane is hanging in the night sky
Wrapped up in holiday lights
Construction ringing rhythmless in
A somewhat silent night
And you realize that no one here is waiting for your call
And if you jumped into the river
No one cares at all
It's been a long time coming
You are only pages away
From showing up at your old high school
Carrying your N.B.A
There's not a lot of effort to
Put in to staying here
Move across the world
See if I care
