[Verse 1]
They said they wanted growth
I told 'em, "Give me time" (Chill)
Half a decade later, I'm pacin' inside my mind
Exploring all the corridors, post about what I find
Lotta trauma, drama, wanna be chillin' before my I'm gone
But I think I got a long road ahead of me, searching for the better me
Callin' me a veteran in wars where I'm the enemy
Creation of the problem, I promise that I've been done with that
But if you tryna sabotage, then we can run it back

[Chorus]
Used to have friеnds, but I still felt lonely
Now a couple thousand listеnin' every moment
It's always crazy to see the changes you used to dream of
Was so inpatient, until I waited, now look
We up, we up, we up, for real
No luck, no luck, no luck, for real
I bet my life that I would make it
If not, you wouldn't see me breathin'
You see an opportunity, then dawg, you better seize it

[Verse 2]
(Used to have friends, but I still felt lonely)
They weren't with me from the jump
Now on my wave, they've been hoppin'
I keep a couple hundred-thousand in my hand while I'm shoppin'
They askin' me what I do, shit, I just told them, "It's music"
They say, "You do it for the image?" "Nah, it's just therapeutic"
But maybe, I should go to therapy, for real
Money's just a cover up on how I truly feel
Numbers don't equate to having decent people's skills
And the chemicals remain after million-dollar deals, that's sad
[Chorus]
Used to have friends, but I still felt lonely
Now a couple thousand listenin' every moment
It's always crazy to see the changes you used to dream of
Was so inpatient, until I waited, now look
We up, we up, we up, for real
No luck, no luck, no luck, for real
I bet my life that I would make it
If not, you wouldn't see me breathin'
You see an opportunity, then dawg, you better seize it
