Old Ways

HAD TO LEAVE MY OLD WAYS BEHIND
IF IT AINT BOUT THE MONEY I HIT DECLINE
HOW YOU BROKE AND YOU STILL TRYNA RECLINE?
WE GOIN UP ITS NEVER BEEN A DECLINE
PEOPLE SAID ITS LUCK AND IT WAS ALL GRIND
THE PHONES OFF CANT NOBODY CALL MINE
ITS A THIN LIKE BETWEEN LOVE AND HATRED
BUT THEIR HATRED TURNED INTO A FAULT LINE

HAD TO LEAVE MY OLD WAYS BEHIND
I CANT BE TRAPPIN TO FREE MINE
WE TRYNA SWITCH UP THE LIFESTYLE
HOW YOU GETTIN RICH WITH ALL THAT FREE TIME?

HAD TO LEAVE MY OLD WAYS BEHIND

FIRST THEY
COUNT YOU OUT THEN YOU COUNTING MONEY
CROSSING STATE LINES FOR THAT CHECK LIKE A BOUNTY HUNTER
PUT IN WORK FIRST
STAY CONSISTENT
THE TALENT COMING
WASNT NOBODY COMIN ROUND WHEN I WAS DOWN TO NOTHIN
BROKE WAS MY COMMON STATE
SO MANY TEARS PUT ON MY MOMMA FACE
DESPERATION MAKING IT HARD
TO KEEP MY HONOR STRAIGHT
NEED THAT
SO HOW WE GET IT WAS FEELING LESS IMPORTANT
FIRED FROM BOTH MY JOBS
SO IM FINESSING FOR IT
OUT OF HELL
MY SHOULDERS SCORCHED
FOR THE FAMILY IMA GO AND GET IT
WITH NO REMORSE
KNEELING SAYING PRAYERS
THO WE NEVER BEEN HOLY BOYS
HOW YOU SELLING PILLS
WHEN YOU KNOW YOU LOST YOUR PARTNER TO OPIODS?
CRACKING UNDER PRESSURE LIKE THE CRACK GAME
BEEN MYSELF THATS WHY I ONLY REP MY LAST NAME
YALL SAID A YEAR AGO THAT YALL WAS BOUT TO STACK CHANGE
LOOK AT THE BANK ACCOUNT AND REALIZE YALL GOT BAD AIM
BITCH I KNOW WHERE IM FROM
KNOW WHAT IM HEADED FOR
LOTUS FLOWER
CAME OUT THE MUD
ITS NOT A METAPHOR
LOOKIN AT MY MOM I KNOW I GOTTA DO BETTER FOR HER

HAD TO LEAVE MY OLD WAYS BEHIND
IF IT AINT BOUT THE MONEY I HIT DECLINE
HOW YOU BROKE AND YOU STILL TRYNA RECLINE?
WE GOIN UP ITS NEVER BEEN A DECLINE
