WAY WAY BACK
[Intro]
Yo this ain't my track for braggin'
But you done woke up the dragon
Countin' coins, way back then
Makin' noise, way back then
See those with doubt from way back then
Where they at now?
19 in the back of the crack house
And where am I at now
Somewhere sunny cheesing cause I know I run two towns
[Verse 1]
Oh shit, you done woke up Daniel from the lion's den
If you don't wanna die then why the fuck did you provoke me then
Way way back, when I ain't have shit to rap about
Way way back to eating QT for dinner
No matter how far I get it's hard to no remember
Every single cold Dеcember
We wеre born thinner, born sinners
When we're gone we'll all see the simmers in the hole
All that glitters isn't gold
Everybody speaking of the dreams ya boy's accomplishin', shit
All these compositions come so easily (true)
My reflection is my only competition
Now take me back, way way back
To the Hero's Hideout
Me and David playin' Magic and shit
And we got a Big Mac we could split
Bad influence since like fifth grade or sixth
Made the beat, made the project, made the sound
Biggest voice you're probably ever gonna hear from my town
Why the fuck you call me retarded from my frown
When I'm clearly the most regarded in my crown
Tell me why I'm up at four or five
Asking myself "how the fuck did I survive"
Maybe I'm the greatest rapper alive
Number one or maybe 9 million and 5
From the move to the breakup to my attempt at suicide
I'm still here and I'm still Joe
Now leave me the fuck alone
I've got myself to go prove right (true)
[Verse 2]
I'm a different person now
Freestyle, then I blurt it out
See in my brain but I blurred it out
Effigy of me, motherfuckers went and burned it down
Yeah, in my current town, I'm just a clown
That's all I rapped about, don't ask me how
Every hero needs an origin story
Mine's full of heartbreak and homies that all ignore me
But why should they get the blame
Can't even look myself in the fuckin' face
Stopped smokin' weed, stayin' out of space
I'm either a bomb or I've got that touch like Midas
And I don't know where in the fuck my mind went
