The track, produced by AllRounda with scratching by DJ Abel, is from Junk's 2016 _I.A.N. _ album and documents his rise. He is an up and coming Stompdown Killa (SKD) affiliate; his story marks another chapter in the ever-growing [legacy of the movement](https://noisey.vice.com/en_ca/article/keep-it-grimy-an-oral-history-of-ephin-and-stompdown-killaz). "Rap music saved my life," Junk says on the track.

"This video to me summarizes what I've been working at this rap shit for&#x2014;over the ten years.," Junk told Noisey. "It's a coming of age into a new chapter of being able to live off something I love to do, which a very small portion of are able to do. It will also be a constant reminder of how much fun I had on this tour with a crazy group of fuckers." Watch Junk's "Saved Me" below.

Junk Lyrics:
Uh fuck a pseudonym on this one, (it’s junk) it doesn’t suit it I’m a give up (give up)no identity concealed my heads all over the place like when Kennedy got killed, (bang) the devil need to chill uh there ain’t no heaven but there’s hell I swear to god with no hand on the bible that in hip hop I’m further now and it’s thank you to Michael, aiming, for the target like he passed me the rifle, thank you, half of my homies wanna be actually like you, rest in peace to an O.G it’s sad to see you gone, running shit for us then you handed the baton, and now the homie Hungry got you tatted on his arm, taken too soon but no matter where we are, we be riding for you bass bangin’ from the car while the aim stay landed on the planets and the stars, master p no limit in my repertoire, rap for me is so different you forget awards, pussy weed money yea that’s every chorus that’s why i shouldn’t be something that was said before, I don’t make rap music for the record store, so go hate Stan Kubrick of the metaphors, i tell a story like I love every statement, everyone should be together dog, fuck segregation

Snak Lyrics:
The last eight years I been living in fast forward, wanted a little fame but I got more than I asked for, feel like the world on my shoulders it's making my back sore, another late night, another stamp in my passport, I won't complain cause this the life that I chose, used to steal all of my clothes, putting white up my nose, if it wasn't for all the fans getting hype at my shows, I'd probably be dead or in jail, or catch a knife in the throat, got, love for the past, but I'm writing a new chapter, moving like the speed of light but I might even move faster, I'm focussed on now, not what I'ma do after, just imagine my little nieces and nephews laughter, went from, rats in the kitchen and practically prison, to stages in foreign places making cash smashing the system, I'm actually living, believe me man in grateful for that, cause if it wasn't for rap, who knows where the fuck I'd be at, I'm sayin
