Times Change

Times change, people change, no one to blame
That's just how the story goes, check the page
Ion' beat around the bush, I say it to your face
Look you in your eye, no homo, I keep it straight

Yeah it's obvious Ion' play by the book
Ion' move till the move is understood

I'm tryna' be regarded as an artist, get acknowledged
Sparks to flames you ignited, I was chillin' not hidin'
why you always quick arguing'

Used to front on dude, now you all about dude
Tried to keep it real but you couldn't keep it true
I ain't wanna' lose my chill so I put you in the rearview
Got a lot on my plate I could use a wish or two
Till that comet strikes, I gotta' be careful to
Not get caught up in shit I can't see through

I'm craving it all, art on the wall
Brush in my hand and I'm standin' in awe
I'm carving out my spot, Y'all claim but ya' not
Half as real as you rap it on the mic

A little passion in action, The rush I get when I'm rappin'
I hear a beat I go savage, I keep it a band bitch
You keep ridin' that wagon

Me? I got to keep clear my conscience
Feels like sleep is now a foreign concept
Y'all sheep, you jus' follow. you ain't on shit
Ion' compete I jus' keep movin' in silence

Cause

Times change, people change, no one to blame
That's just how the story goes, check the page
Ion' beat around the bush, I say it to your face
Look you in your eye, no homo, I keep it straight
Used to front on dude, now you all about dude
Tried to keep it real but you couldn't keep it true
I ain't wanna' lose my chill so I put you in the rearview
Got a lot on my plate I could use a wish or two

I told you I quote it I wrote it so poetic
Show up to studio sessions with proper etiquette
Gem of a guy, yeah he a total gentleman
Unless you prick, fuck around and, you gon' get a taste

Of your own medicine, Excuse you where's your manners at
Approach me keep it genuine, In my closet ain't no skeleton
Music brings excitement, Ima' keep it straight
Made me wanna' write again', now no time to waste
I hit a wall and find a way, Ion' break down and pray
One thing life has taught me is to never hesitate
Do what you love, do it each and every day
Man they spew hate and love is jus' not in they DNA
Fuck what people say, I kill a beat and pop champagne
When that mix hit the speakers man it's time to celebrate

You who made me elevate, I go coco when it's down to bait
Make you feel like now you got something
I could see you nervous hear your heart thumping

I could tell you that scared you don't wanna' start nothin'
I keep it lowkey but don't provoke me
This is ain't a joke b, I hope you noticing
I take this shit seriously, Lyrics, flow, and delivery
The struggle, pain and misery, I compete for victory
On the mic, you a kid to me, recitin' rhymes from a nursery
I write a verse and it's history, hits don't mean shit to me
I hit the booth, Mix the beat and hope somebody's listening
