ANDERSON .PAAK
"E & J"
feat. VerBS

I remember Augusta, Georgia
Big trees and the lemonade
But I was born in the western portion
My life will never be the same

Made me think about Chi city
Toe steppin' in the ballroom
Made me think about New York
I had nothing to lose

[Hook:]
Devil's off my shoulders
I've found the road to freedom
Whatever don't break me down
Can only make me stronger
If there was nothing to lose
Life wouldn't have a meaning
Whatever don't break it down
Can only make me stronger

[Verse: VerBS]
[?]
Started getting organized
And realized for real that this is more to rhymes
Instead of liking, I'm starting to love myself more
I'm drinking water and worrying about my health more
I did a lot of growing and nigga its kind of wise
Starving artist [?] like man personified
I'm an African and not an Afri-can't
And I know it's baffling but I got a master plan

[Hook:]
Devil's off my shoulders
I've found the road to freedom
Whatever don't break me down
Can only make me stronger
If there was nothing to lose
Life wouldn't have a meaning
Whatever don't break me down
It only makes me stronger

Took a train to Kansas City
Black girls and the barbecue
The drove me to the church house
I swear I only tell the truth
Preacher man had a Rolla Royce
Preacher's wife had a white jacket
Everybody looking real broke
But the music wasn't bad

[Hook:]
Devil's off my shoulders
I've found the road to freedom
Whatever don't break me down
Can only make me stronger
If there was nothing to lose
Life wouldn't have a meaning
Whatever don't break me down
It only makes me stronger

[Outro:]
[?] Jesus I found love and it's alright, alright
[?] Jesus I found God and it's alright, alright
