Old Me

Yes, I'm the man that nobody understands
I'm tryna get my shit right
Don't worry got a plan
To try to claim my spot 'n fill a stadium with fans
Never will I give up until this cash is in my hands
Doing what I gotta
Tryna make my first grand
Sometimes I feel down
Like I don't stand a chance
Don't know what to write about
This they wouldn't stand
'N other times I write 'til I have cramps in my hand
I got it I'm the man 'n if you don't like it well
I don't give a damn
But that's what you gotta do right?
The façade you gotta keep
You're better than them all
Shit, I feel it in my sleep
There used to be another more than only just me
By the name of Justin, the kid was really sweet
But he was gone soon as the pen hit the leaf
'N now I'm here to stay,
Maybe one day soon we'll meet

Hell I'm gonna but what else can I say?
But I'm in this song listen to everyday
You've known it all along, tell you this anyway
The real me wasn't strong, so the new me came to play
Life changed me bad, don't recognize in the mirror
Made me hella mad, got me changing my gears
Girls played my heart 'n cheated on me for years
The old me long gone the new me is here to fear

Pressure on me so his death wasn't vein
Imma make it to the top no matter what come our way
No matter what people say protecting us all the way
Doesn't matter what we're called it's the name of the game
Took a hit everyday
Childhood was rough, the sister we had to raise
When our dad took us away
Imma grandmamas boy and I'm proud of it to this day
Doesn't matter what you say 'cause you'll never take her away
Used by woman who wanted me for my body
Buff jocks in the daily box me because I'm scronny
Punks saw my moxie, they cross sweep 'n they jaw me
Knocking me out my socks 'n smacking against the concrete
I love the idea of love
Addicted like a drug
Not to mention the Oxy
Taking 'em 'til I'm judge
Doesn't matter what you think of me
I am my own worst enemy
Addicted to ecstasy
Drinking all of the Hennessy
Swerving in my lane 'til you have to come bury me

Hell I'm gonna but what else can I say?
But I'm in this song listen to everyday
You've known it all along, tell you this anyway
The real me wasn't strong, so the new me came to play
Life changed me bad, don't recognize in the mirror
Made me hella mad, got me changing my gears
Girls played my heart 'n cheated on me for years
The old me long gone the new me is here to fear

The day I lost Milo was the worst it's like I'm cursed
Almost feel I'd be happier in the back of a hurse
I ain't got no purpose
'N I ain't got no dreams
Take a closer look cause it ain't always what it seems
Yes I'm gone, but what else can I say
But I'm in this song listen to everyday
You've known it all along
Tell you this anyway
The old me wasn't strong so the new me's here to stay

Hell I'm gonna but what else can I say? (Yeah)
But I'm in this song listen to everyday
You've known it all along, tell you this anyway
The real me wasn't strong, so the new me came to play
Life changed me bad, don't recognize in the mirror
Made me hella mad, got me changing my gears
Girls played my heart 'n cheated on me for years
The old me long gone the new me is here to fear
