Look
Yeah
I remember back in the day
Ain't worry bout a thing
Except maybe lying bout my grades
When I say my grace
Before I dug into my plate
Before the world's state
Was at the forefront of my brain
Look
I remember back in the days
When everything just seemed okay
When I ain't look to you to save me
From some self-inflicted pain
When everything just seemed okay
Don't let me add no more things
To my list to pray away
Cause I remember back in the day
You ain't have to say a thing
(Say a thing)
I remember that look in your face
(Remember that)
So you ain't have to say a thing
(You ain't have to say a thing)
Cause I remember back in the day
(I remember)
You ain't have to say a thing
(You ain't have to say a thing)
Cause I remember that look in your face
(I remember)
So you ain't have to say a thing
(You ain't have to say a thing)
Ma say I'm speeding through life
But what the fuck I'm in a rush for?
Tryna make the most out this world
'Fore the empire crumble
Who that at my front door
The outside getting cutthroat
That's why I lay low
I don't even stunt no more
I don't give a fuck no more
I never did
Do it for the '40
To the '04
To the seven cit's
Always knock it all up out the park
Like it's on sedatives
Chasing this shit since I was just a kid
Put me in position to grow up quick, like
Shoutout to my younger self
Cause now I'm feeling old as hell
Bet them 100's didn't help
But oh well
I won't let my soul sell
You must not know me well
Flow been cold as hell
Don't think I ain't let offers
Get OD stale
Muh' fuckers been wanting parts
Since I was at the start
Ain't put no ground work in
But always tryna level
With a star
Guess I get it
That's your job
But I been on my job too
(My job too)
Stomach been full of knots
I do what I gotta do
Don't exclude
Not one of the crew
From eating when I do
Put my shoe
Foot on they neck
While I stand on my own two
Seeing through
All of the bull
Way better than I used
Muh' fuck what you been tryna tell me fool
What it do
I remember back in the day
Ain't worry bout a thing
Except maybe lying bout my grades
When I say my grace
Before I dug into my plate
Before the world's state
Was at the forefront of my brain
Look
I remember back in the days
When everything just seemed okay
When I ain't look to you to save me
From some self-inflicted pain
When everything just seemed okay
Don't let me add no more things
To my list to pray away
(Always keep your love)
Cause I remember back in the day
You ain't have to say a thing
(Say a thing)
(Just out of my reach)
I remember that look in your face
(Remember that)
(Just out of my reach)
So you ain't have to say a thing
(You ain't have to say a thing)
(Always keep your love)
Cause I remember back in the day
(I remember)
(Always keep your love, girl)
You ain't have to say a thing
(You ain't have to say a thing)
(Just out of my reach)
Cause I remember that look in your face
(I remember)
(Just out of my reach)
So you ain't have to say a thing
(You ain't have to say a thing)
Aye
I remember back in the day
I run around and play
Got my cousins running spades
We weren't worried bout a thing
Tell 'em come outside and skate
At the end of the day
I ask my auntie
Can I stay?
Aye
We up all night
I hope she don't go get the belt
Aye
I got it on my own
Don't need no help
Nah
And you don't need it in your pocket
To have wealth
I guess that's what my people
Taught me bout myself
I still hope you doing good
Ain't seen you in a minute
And you know I'm out the way
Until this shit is finished
Busch Gardens money
Used to keep my bank replenished
Would take the girl out to Yorktown
And tell her it's Venice
Haha
This is way before we had bills
Before I found out
You gotta pay to fucking live
Before we ran it up
Before my n****s had they kids
I'm praying every day
They don't go do the shit we did
Nah, haha
Leaving the party too sauced
Smoking just like an exhaust
Tell her I love her
And then next day
I was calling it off
Wasn't nobody telling me shit
I just knew I was hard
With good intentions
Just to ball
Ball
I remember back in the day
(Always keep your love)
Ain't worry bout a thing
Except maybe lying bout my grades
(Always keep your love girl)
When I say my grace
Before I dug into my plate
(Just out fo my reach)
Before the world's state
Was at the forefront of my brain
(Just out of my reach)
Look
I remember back in the days
(Always keep your love)
When everything just seemed okay
When I ain't look to you to save me
From some self-inflicted pain
(Just out of my reach)
When everything just seemed okay
(Just out of my reach)
Don't let me add no more things
To my list to pray away
(Always keep your love)
Cause I remember back in the day
You ain't have to say a thing
(Say a thing)
(Just out of my reach)
I remember that look in your face
(Remember that)

So you ain't have to say a thing
(You ain't have to say a thing)
