Take Me Back
G FrSH
So I take it back
I take it back
I'mma take it back
To the me I was before
No name on our creps, just sitting on the steps
Or outside the co-op tryna make a pound stretch
When her smile was her treasure cause she never had a chest
We were Romeos and they were all Juliets
We never feared a shadow, they were just silhouettes
Feels like we knew best at the times we knew less
Like when you first meet a chick, and, you don't know shit
Ignorance is bliss and then life becomes your bitch
Then we all accept, it is what it is until it isn't
The motto of lost innocence
Where nothing lasts forever cause the end is our only ever given
So I learnt to take it if I'm gonna make it
And to never take shit, like I'm constipated
Stare at my reflection, I'm seeing my shattered dreams
But the mirror's still intact so I'm waking up from the sleep
Born winner but with no finish
The stopwatch is running, I'm becoming less optimistic
I ain't a loser, I prefer the term a realist
But in reality I don't know fucking know what real is
I see, touch and hear but I don't ever feel shit
I have to be OK, I ain't got time to feel shit
No time for depression nigga, fuck your emotions
I've gotta stay focused, I'm hope amongst the hopeless
Plus, I'm my little girl's hero
And if she want it, then she ain't tryna hear "no"
And I ain't tryna say that I heard that many times growing up
And for the record, brudda, we will never play back
We will never rewind, only fast forward
London, daddy will never say he can't afford it, trust me
Feeling like when I had a penny and a pumpy
Now Who the fuck said I weren't hungry?
Uh, I hope someone loves London more than I did her mother
Hope I see more than just a half in my brother
Hope I stay great and I still do the numbers
Fuck it, I even hope I find love in a lover
Last text from my ex said "I hope it's all worth it"
And however rich I get without her, I'm still worthless
Chasing all these dreams that money can buy
I lost a lot of sleep and somewhere I lost I
Somewhere on the road, somewhere in them Os
At times I hope less but I never lose hope
Saying "it's too late"'s the biggest lie I ever told
As long as I do me, that shit'll never get old, no
As long as I do me, that shit'll never get old, no
At times I hope less but I never lose hope
