Welcome welcome, everyone please have a seat and make yourselves comfortable.
Grab a drink or a smoke, because the conversation we’re having today is gonna be heavy.
And most of y’all might be wondering why, because the topic we’re having today is about life.
But before we get to that, let me introduce myself, my name is RTJ, or better known as Jonny.
And I’m not here to criticize you, or show you how to live your life.
I’m only here to share with you my journey.
You see
As a kid I lost someone close to me, and that’s something I couldn’t comprehend.
That’s when I started drinking and smoking to the point where I can’t even stand.
But then I remembered when we sitting at the park while he showed me this genre.
Tupac, biggie, wu tang, Nas, his taste was impeccable.
He wanted to be just like them, but got taken out with a technical.
Now that’s when I grabbed this pen, I guess it was a way for me to vent or make amends.
But man, it turned out to be so much more than that.
Cuz this ink we put on paper goes way beyond the circle of rap.
Now I know, you’re probably thinking this is just another story on how to turn pain into gain, but that’s just not the case.
I’ve been stuck in this cave, stuck in this maze, using music just to find a way.
Or maybe runaway.
But the point is I never stopped trying.
Even when I walked through hell with my mental health, when my face turned pale, and my body frail.
I never stopped trying.
Man I put my soul in this, I’m passionate man.
But passion is cheap in this world full of greed, that’s why most retreat.
But that won’t be me. No that won’t be me.
Right?
Right?
I’m sorry, sometimes I overthink a lot
Sometimes I don’t know how to talk
But that’s enough about me, I wanna give a shout-out to the ones that helped me found peace.
I’m talking about ThatKidGoran, charcoal, and urban nerd beats.
And let’s not forget about eeryskies, he’s the one who made this masterpiece.
And last but not least, I couldn’t have done this without my homie and producer Tony.
I guess what I’m tryna say is, without y’all there wouldn’t be me.
I hope that through music we can all find the thing we’ve been trying to reach
Or maybe find peace through these pieces we piece.
Now we’re all misguided, just tryna help us find our way.
Sometimes you’ll feel like you’re on an island alone and that’s okay.
I say we’re all misguided, just tryna help us find our way.
I hope you vibe with this music to live to die another day.
