Back then I was down
On my luck
These days things are
Looking Up
So far from all the things I used to be, I used to be
Back then I was down
On my luck
These days things are
Looking Up
So far from all the things i used to be, I used to be
Back when I ain't have no confidence
Come to think about it
I ain't have no common sense
Used to pop a couple bottles with a couple cents
These days I wonder where Id be at if I hadn't spent
So much time
Just drinking and trying
To make everyone around me life
Simpler than mine
I often give them all of me
Without having the time
And still I hear em cracking jokes
Like twisting ya spine
I'm on a
Different road
I'm sick of the posing
No more lying to myself
I know I ain't chosen
I'm still fighting for myself
There's shit that I'm holding
Way too deep inside myself
Won't show no emotion
I learned to control it
Go and put it on a song
And flow like the ocean
Way my life been going down
Can't tell but I'm hopeless
Sorry I been tripping lately
Just having a moment
Back then I was down
On my luck
These days things are
Looking Up
So far from all the things I used to be, I used to be
Back then I was down
On my luck
These days things are
Looking Up
So far from all the things i used to be, I used to be
No more looking back
No more talking down on myself and now that's a fact
No more wasting time and comparing myself to them
No more being friendly and giving my time to them
Only putting up with the people that comprehend
That this thing I been chasing
Requires some time and then
I'm the CEO of Yung Waves Records
And I demand
Some more innovation
Some more dedication
Why the fuck it seem like I'm impatient
All I do is work and think and work with no vacation
Study overtime man if you see my preparation
You would think I'm ready for the next three generations
That don't even show my dedication
Went and checked the time and I can't give no explanation
On how much I been doing for my people being patient
Given I just really hope my fam appreciate it
