The Future

You can never tell me I'm not real
I've been through everything
Seen with my real eyes
Listen and you will realise
I speak the truth, everyone speaks real lies
I wish I was where I was when I was
Wishing I was here, 'cause then I was clear
But now I'm a bit muddled up 'cause
I've got people tryna take

I wish I was where I was when I was
Wishing I was here, 'cause then I was clear
I'm disappointed
Nah, man, I'm disappointed deeply
'Cause I know that I need the future
But I want the future to need me

I said "Future" like a prick, man
Fuck commercial hit's fuck the charts

I don't need no bandana and a hammer and shit
This ain't no Santana and Cam'ron shit
I just wait for record shops to pay me back
While people say, "Jme this and Jme that"
I don't give a damn, none of you knew me
From when I used to walk
Home from school with Julie
Now everybody wants to talk
Flippin' upsets me

I wish I was where I was when I was
Wishing I was here, 'cause then I was clear
I'm disappointed
Nah, man, I'm disappointed deeply
'Cause I know that I need the future
But I want the future to need me

The future don't even fucking need you, blud
God forbid I die right now in four years
No one even fucking gives a shit

I just need my music, man, then I'm set
I've got an iPod but the battery's dead
I write on envelopes, on anything really
I don't care if the pen is red
I don't care if it's a whiteboard marker
With ink all leaking through the paper
You can ask your lyrics, they'll tell you
They wish that I was their creator

I wish I was where I was when I was
Wishing I was here, 'cause then I was clear
I'm disappointed
Nah, man, I'm disappointed deeply
'Cause I know that I need the future
But I need the future to need me

Fucked deadout
Everyone forgets you
When you're dead, you're just gone
It's fucked
