Old Me

I'm dancing with my demons but this is a different song
Yea I'm sick and tired of being tired why it take so long
I wake up everyday but shit is still the same
It feels like I not even moving yea is this a game
It's like I keep going backwards and I can't even make up
Only time I'm at peace if I sit down and get up
Sometimes I stare in space wanting to give up
But this ain't the old me gotta persevere and stay real tough

I got stay real tough
Or nobody will
I'm here by myself
I don't got a ville
I don't got a gang
It's just me and a few homies playing this damn game
Ever since that day I haven't felt the same
Where I realized I'm not that tough that I'm just a normal nigga
Wit no skill
With no fame
Those other niggas called me lame
One day I had enough
But I'm still waiting for that day
Because I'm not feeling that tough
Cuz I feel setback
Sometimes I just stay in bed cuz of these setbacks
I wish I was in the air with a jet pack
In a fight with life but I can't hit back

I'm dancing with my demons but this is a different song
Yea I'm sick and tired of being tired why it take so long
I wake up everyday but shit is still the same
It feels like I not even moving yea is this a game
It's like I keep going backwards and I can't even make up
Only time I'm at peace if I sit down and get up
Sometimes I stare in space wanting to give up
But this ain't the old me gotta persevere and stay real tough

Throwback to old me when I used to hoop and face off
But then one day I realized I ain't have skill so took off
Went to focusing on school cuz u know thought I had a talent
But then I got to college and I ain't have that real knowledge
Now I'm fighting with my music but this is kinda sad too
It's like I'm making all these songs for like a crowd of one or 2
All this pain and all this sorrow stuck to me like it's glue
But I guess I'm going through so I can grow up like mewtwo
But I guess I'm a special few
I'm one of those niggas who can put pen to paper
And record a song straight through like I'm a
Laser
Bout to shock all these niggas like I am a taser
And I won't be scared to cut niggas if like a razor
Ok y'all get it I don't mind being by myself
It's been like that from that start just my, me and myself
And I'm stacking up my characters right on that shelf
In this game called life you might be alone
And sometimes it's hard to do this shit alone
I got all these thoughts filling up my dome
So I just write it's down because the notes are like home
I'm not a rapper yet I just make some tunes
Sometimes it's safe space to let me fume
I told you that I'll make it just give me a few
I told you that I'll make it I'll be there soon
I'm dancing with my demons but this isn't a loss
I gotta make there ima be a boss
I gotta get through life this ain't a sweet dream
Ima fight to end this ain't the old me
