"The Voice" lyrics

"The Voice"

Turn me up, Josh

I was goin' through that pain alone
I was goin' through that phase alone
We all change, you say I change alone
Sleepless nights, barely changin' clothes
You know damn right you was wrong
I was tired, they didn't realize
Certain vibes, it don't feel right
Plenty nights got me traumatized
Why they lie? I do love my guys
You lookin' crazy, know the trenches raised me
I'm Durkio, but I'm Chicago JAY-Z
And I was scared how that money made me
I caught a vibe, but they was lookin' crazy
Money ran low, right? Felons can't vote, right?
I can't even vote for who I believe in, shit ain't goin' right
I didn't drop a tear inside the funeral, I ain't mourn right
And I nut in all the hoes I fuck, I blame the porn site

Please don't turn away from me
I got enough on my plate tryna turn away, tryna turn away
Became the voice of the streets and my people ain't believe in me
I'm supportive of the streets and them people ain't believe in me

Quarantine what? I'm just tryna make a buck
Talkin' to my dog, he be actin' like he stuck
Favorite gun a Glock, it's filled up with a month
Throw it in their face every time I hold it up
Granny ain't feelin' too well
Shootout with the police, I ain't goin' to jail
How you actin' off a case, you'll know if you tell
I know a nigga from the hood, he'll serve with no scale
Watchin' Bands make a play, I seen him score in the mail
Gave him thirty-nine years, I heard him cry in the cell
Even though I'm gettin' big, I bought a MAC through my Zelle
Took a picture on my block, they think I'm back in the field

Please don't turn away from me
I got enough on my plate tryna turn away, tryna turn away
Became the voice of the streets and my people ain't believe in me
I'm supportive of the streets and them people ain't believe in me

"The Voice" apparently refers to Lil Durk's message on Instagram Live at the end of August 2020 when he answered to an alleged offer by 6ix9ine to pay three million dollars to Lil Durk and his crew to keep trolling each other. Lil Durk said, "Fuckin rat. You can't compete with a fuckin rat on street shit. Stop responding to that clown ass nigga. I'm the voice of the streets right? Whatever I say fuckin goes right? I can say this, I can say that and it's stamped. I got the streets. I got the youth. I got the trenches — That shit dead — I'm the voice."
