Lyrics

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
Thank you for all my blessings
Thank you for all my lessons
Thank you for indecisive moments and the second guessing
Thank you for all the tension
Thank you for every mention
Thank you for all my victories for when I fought depression
Thank you for all the lies
Thank you for tears I’ve cried
Thank you for all the times I had no answers, asking why
Thank you for all my time
Thank you for every grind
Thank you for every dream I had cuz imma make it mine
I don’t know how I let the summer fly
Baby, I’m nothing like them other guys
No drugs, I’m on another high
My mind’s on Saturn and it’s cluttered by
Erratic patterns of a butterfly
Measuring phalluses? What the fuck is this fallacy?
Living with my duality
I am a whole anomaly
These is thoughts from my balcony
Tell me is this reality?
I’m turning nothing to something a **** practicing alchemy
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
I said I’m cutthroat, I write rhymes in my DeathNote
Investigated by L cuz I keep on raising the death toll
I delegated this L cuz you **** playing the same role
Claim you’re different? I can’t tell cuz you copy down to the dress code
Same ol’
I learned a lot in this passed year
Like how to move with a jammed gear
I’m miles away, but I’m so near
I can’t engage you in your fears
I’m not relating to my peers
I spent this year as a ghost
I wasn’t living my life
Instead of doing the most
I stayed stagnant in spite
Ain’t even put up a fight
Ain’t even pick up a mic
So how I say I’m the best and I ain’t proving it..right?
Let’s get real for moment
Tryna grab it and hold it
Thinking back on the moments that made it precious and golden
Big heart soft spoken
In this world I am token
Militant like a shogun
I’m broken, so I was chosen
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
