Same Old
[Verse 1]
Yeah, and I feel like fame is overrated
The closer that I get to it the more I grow to hate it
And I ain't been dropping music cause I ain't motivated
I know that money come with problems like they both related
If you're still chasing your dreams well then you so courageous
I put my life in this music I fear my open pages
I need the world, I can't be remembered as local greatness
I'm still that person that falls in love in these hopeless places
Cigarette smoke in my lungs, I'm broken and drunk
Living life like a fast break and I'm just hoping I dunk
Ain't no skeletons in my closet just don't open my trunk
Tried to fight off all my anxieties by smoking a blunt
I hope I find myself (Yo), I hope I find some help
And I was holding up but life been taking off my belt
I got some people that still hate me cause I told them how I felt
But these the cards that I was dealt

[Hook]
Yo I'm riding with the same old n***as, the same old chick
I ain't paid the light bill, still ain't paid rent
But I know, that a n***a gonna get it
Cause I've been grinding for a minute
Yo I'm riding with the same old n***as, the same old chick
But everything good right now we all lit
Cause I know, a n***a gonna get it
Cause I've been grinding for a minute
[Verse 2]
I've been this way since '95
Always searching for this kind of vibe
Still thinking "what if I never quit my 9 to 5?"
What if they don't respect my music till I'm not alive?
Does it count if I already feel like I died inside?
I tried to make a happy song and every single line I lied
I can't smile and I can't count how many times I tried
But yo I've been working it out to show my stronger side
Do I want money or happiness I cannot decide
My momma still been stressing me bout life and it's complexities
I knew I wouldn't starve when I created my own recipe
And when I feel my worst is when my music is the best to me
I know my shorty hurt because I've been on this date with destiny
I'm blowing up, I'm blowing up
I knew you back when we was growing up
But sure enough you acted different now
You always calling me and telling me you miss me now
But you was never there through all them pill bottles I emptied out
And now I'm way too faded to feel shit, I kill shit
They told me that these shoes were too big to fill and they still fit
Trying to get a million before my granny get real sick
Cause she the only reason we skated by like a heelflip
And I love her for that, I love her for that
My eyes closed, I'm hugging her as she hugging me back
She said "I don't always understand the stuff that you rap but you gonna make it boy and that's just a fact"
[Hook]
Yo I'm riding with the same old n***as, the same old chick
I ain't paid the light bill, still ain't paid rent
But I know, that a n***a gonna get it
Cause I've been grinding for a minute
Yo I'm riding with the same old n***as, the same old chick
But everything good right now we all lit
Cause I know, a n***a gonna get it
Cause I've been grinding for a minute

[Outro]
Minute, minute, minute, minute
Cause I've been grinding for a minute
Minute, minute, minute, minute
A n***a gonna get it
