Way Too Familiar

This is way too familiar
Momma had the drop on me
When I was trynna whisper
Started rapping just to tell myself
That I could really do it
Now she telling me she rocking with the way I make my music
This is way too familiar
Back when I had fans
Way before I had some listeners
Back when I had friends
Before they became too critical
Back when all my dawgs
Paid attention to the syllables
This is way too familiar
Before it was a chore
And writing lyrics was a burden
Draining all the fun
While I'm slowly losing purpose
Before when it was too beautiful
To emulate a poet
This is way too familiar
There was little pressure
When you trynna be original
I would make my songs without a limit
Unconditional
The goal was not to be labeled the same or too predictable
This is way too familiar
The way I'm feeling now
It's chaotic all again
I was trynna genre bend
Follow stylistic trends
Staying true
And not pretend
On the way to go ascend
This is way too familiar
I was in a zone
Listen I was in a mode
My motto is all about progression
As long as you improve every day
You're on the road to getting blessings
This is way too familiar
I was in my bag
When I was speaking on my feelings
I had aspirations of trynna get a million
I aimed low now I got dreams to get a billion
This is way too familiar
I put my name on the line
In trynna get mine
It took me some time
Now I'm ready to shine
Now I'm ready to shine
