Nothing stays the same whoever thought of that
Bullet to the brain whoever taught us that
You ain’t got no heart, you just get heart attacks
say you got the drip, I move like water


I been the man this since I was with 2008ighties
Way back at the wood and we was the greatest and

Drake was the favorite, I just got my L’s
No pied piper, but was hanging with Calez

I met Fonz-E-Mak, and then got Mac
But prior to that I was with a McFly like the future was back

When you had to prove that you really could rap
Back when smoking meant asthma attacks

Radio was transition to trap
And we was like the antithesis of that
Old heads wanna diss us when we scat
If you was on a blog you was on the map

I ain’t know where I would fit in all of that
Starter jacket wearer with the SnapBack
Started in the era Ye had backpacks

I don’t mean to backtrack, but it’s important that you know my backstory
I know I’m the future and I gotta big up the ones who laid out the map for me

Lupe Fiasco had me on a Fahrenheit 1/15
I was like 15 tryna write a hundred thousand 16s

But you know when you turn 18, that’s when the world try to take dreams
The lies they make up are make believe, please do not fall for the Maybelline

Say that life is a movie right? always wondered what that really mean?
Cause they love to show you the highlights, but you never see the deleted scenes



Nothing stays the same whoever thought of that
Bullet to the brain whoever taught us that
You ain’t got no heart, you just get heart attacks
say you got the drip, I move like water

I’m still shapeshifting
Lost some mates innit?
Things rearrange, I welcome the change, that’s just fate innit?
still fresh innit?
Still one of the best in it
Try to box me in
I don’t mesh with it


Hold up hold up hold up, get the script straight
5’11 with a presence like I’m 6’8

Man I sure been going through a lot til this day
I don’t Cap I just adapt, watch me shift shape

I’m so 60419, just watch me blow yo mind
I can show you times, when I was low on dimes
And that ain’t slow my grind

The year is 2014, I got my degree, this is when me and Jasmyn were a thing
We got a house, but then I moved out cause I ain’t really know what love was about

And plus I was going a different route, and she was sharing me with my ambition
And another friend that I won’t mention, I just couldn’t keep her in that position

Damn why is it always some drama?
My therapist told me it got something do with my relationship with my momma
And I don’t know how ima deal with it, new to these feelings if I’m being honest
I don’t know why I feel like all my problems will go away chasing some commas

I guess when you younger you push it aside
At some point in time, I ain’t feel alive
They asked for my soul I signed on the line
Had buyers remorse, but ain’t no rewind

I took it in stride, and did something different
If I’m not anything else, I know that I’m resilient
Niggas can’t keep me on this one

Nothing stays the same whoever thought of that
Bullet to the brain whoever taught me that
You ain’t got no heart, you just get heart attacks
Say you got the drip, I move like water

I’m still shapeshifting
Lost some mates innit?
Things rearrange, I welcome the change, that’s just fate innit?
still fresh innit?
Still one of the best in it
Try to box me in
I don’t mesh with it
