Old Me
Yo I'm living proof that people can change
But don't think for a moment that I cant change back
Come along way from what I used to be
Don't provoke the beast
Been the dealer and the addict so I know the streets
Yo Don't fuck with me
Found my peace of mind I'll even share a piece
Cuz I don't need the beef
Y'all don't wanna turn me back to the old me
Nah. you don't know me
Born a Gemini Dr. Jekyll Mr. Hyde
Gotta devil inside caught between him and I
Imagine all your mind good or bad multiplied
Had to learn to be a man right about the age of five
Broken home empty bottles like Life was all a lie
Apple didn't fall far I became what I despised
Mad Alcohol and needles it's a wonder I survived
Cheated death so many times didn't think I that could die
Russian roulette false hope gets revolved
Click, click, click problem still not solved
Hit rock bottom and surrendered to it all
Broke down to understand that the broken are evolved
Gotta hair pin trigger John Wick lit fuse
Don't play on my patience like duck duck goose
Madman or monster doesn't matter who you choose
I got no control of either I suggest you play it cool
Come along way from what I used to be
Don't provoke the beast
Been the dealer and the addict so I know the streets
Yo Don't fuck with me
Found my peace of mind I'll even share a piece
Cuz I don't need the beef
Y'all don't wanna turn me back to the old me
Nah you don't know me
Listen. I'm Irish, Japanese, and I'm German.
You ain't fucking with me that's for certain
I'm not the same person I'm a way better version
But the opposite is Oz I'm a beast behind the curtain
So don't ever take my kindness for a weakness
I am way more like Yeezy than I'll ever be Jesus
My attention's hyperactive so I wouldn't test my genius
Been sober many years but I'm still missing pieces
More spiritual now still knock the fuck out you fam
I will never show my hand like all y'all front for gram
Call your bluff every time I'll never give you a chance
Just Like Guru and Jada I leave you right where you stand
I've been lethal, been evil spit ether
Try and stay peaceful I'm a grim repercussion
You don't wanna wake the dragon sleeping down in the dungeon
We never lose our demons only learn to live above them
Come along way from what I used to be
Don't provoke the beast
Been the dealer and the addict so I know the streets
Yo Don't fuck with me
Found my peace of mind I'll even share a piece
Cuz I don't need the beef
Y'all don't wanna turn me back to the old me
Nah. you don't know me
Rock bottom is a solid foundation Yo I made it
I'm here for the taking fuck complacence I ain't waiting
Hating is confused admiration stop complaining
And pain ain't erased with paper chasing time you face it
Time to be a better man be a better man
Accept what we can't change and change what we can
I'm trying to be a better man be a better man
Woke don't mean having knowledge
Woke is when you have knowledge of self
Knowledge ain't power
Knowledge applied is power
Time y'all learn how to detach from emotion and stay focused
But don't think for a moment that I cant change back
Come along way from what I used to be
Don't provoke the beast
Been the dealer and the addict so I know the streets
Yo Don't fuck with me
Found my peace of mind I'll even share a piece
Cuz I don't need the beef
Y'all don't wanna turn me back to the old me
Nah. you don't know me
Born a Gemini Dr. Jekyll Mr. Hyde
Gotta devil inside caught between him and I
