Lyrics

Back when I ain't thought I had time for my dreams
Back when you ain't had to be royal to be a king
Back when all my homies rode they bikes and kept them clean
That was back when anything in life was but a dream
Now we ride for the king
Man it's crazy how it switches
Trynna buy up everything
But we still ain't got them riches
Well at least in physical
Cause with God I'm a boss
I ain't perfect in the least
But I'm glad he took that walk
For my sins
So we take it back again
As I do so well
Back when I woke up I earth
But my mid was in hell
Back when I didn't know if I was gonna see a jail cell
Back when I thought I was cold
Couldn't let my heart swell
But
You already know me
Big G be the homie
Keep that sauce forever on me
And also for my homies
I remember eating noodles for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
Now we on our way
No more BK in the winter
So if I could take I back
To the memories I had
From running away from church
And never trynna go back
I swear I wouldn't switch it
Cause God handled my business
Cause back then I was broke
But being broke made me richer
Back when I ain't thought I had time for my dreams
Back when you ain't had to be royal to be a king
Back when all my homies rode they bikes and keep them clean
That was back when anything in life was but a dream
But that was back then
That was back then
That was back then
That was back then
Back when I ain't have it
Thought I was a savage
Woke up early Sunday morning on that Kirk and Detrick Haddon
Yeah you talk about a throwback
That's as far as it goes
Cause folks start losing souls when they chasing gold
But woah, wait a second
Back to counting blessings
Back then we ain't have it
But now we overstepping
Probably euro-stepping like I'm Harden or Ginobli
I'm a friend of God and I'm just blessed that Jesus knows me
Back when I ain't have that drive
Asking God why
With tears in my eyes
Fast forward ten years later, no surprise
God still blessing and the sun still rises
So we
Back on this track and it's feeling like gold
Can't say we're losing cause that's so evil
Couple years my album is sold
Out to the masses who thought it was o-
Ver to the point where I thought I would go
Back to the place that I would call my home
I guess you could say that I felt too alone
I needed that time to put God on the throne
Then I felt so much love I packed up my bags
Hopped in the booth and put in the dash
No Kenan and Kel but I'm feeling all that
Sometimes all you gotta do is fall back
Now I feel good cause I'm all in his grace
No time for detours I ain't driving miss daisy
No dirty dancing, so no Patrick Swayze
I got through my pain cause God is amazing
Woah
I pray that all that is relatable
No time for beef cause my plate is full
I need an advance just for me and my crew
Cause I'm feeling beefed up like I'm Terry Crews
I ain't gone trip
The past was a trip
And it probably made me sicker
But I'm glad I was broke
Cause being broke made me richer
Back when I ain't thought I had time for my dream
Back when you ain't have to be royal to be a king
Back when all my homies rode they bikes and kept them clean
That was back when anything inn life was but a dream
But that was back then
That was back then
That was back then
That was back then
Yeah I'm 'bout it
