Dead and Gone

This young girl changed
Some like a shapeshifter
Cocoon I stayed in from a caterpillar
Ten toes to the ground now I'm grounded
Applying some pressure making a pound cake
And all of this dough I made me carry this weight
Can I put it down on you, can I put it down on you
One thing you cannot do, one thing you cannot do
Don't try to flex on me I took one for the team
Don't try to flex on me I took one for the team

Cause the old me dead and gone
She's dead and gone
She's dead and gone
Woah

Now when I wake up in the morning
Yea I'm super happy like Jordan
I remember I got kicked out I was 21
By this time my third time, guess its a charm
I remember spreading blankets in my car
Same feeling keep me warm
I remember I was down for the ride
Others have it worse so I pushed it
To the side, now I realize gotta skip
That mentality, lord just set me free

And you know if I want it then Ima go get it
No I will not stop until I get to the finish
Until I see the white checkered flag
While I'm passing through the street way
Going about 99 like I'm on the freeway
That's how fast this life shit goes got to
Make it count now, make sure that
I make the most gotta make it count
Now I have changed so much
And I am so damn proud, working on my aura
Clearing up my clouds, same thing that surrounds
Me when I'm smoking loud
These people think they know me but they're wrong

Cause the old me dead and gone
She's dead and gone
She's dead and gone
Cause the old me dead and gone
She's dead and gone
She's dead and gone
