One Year Ago, Today

Yeah

I woke up this morning, checked my phone and I was shocked to
See a chat from a girl it's been a minute since I've talked to
Opened it to a memory, "one year ago, today"
I couldn't help but smile, just thinking 'bout how far I came (Like)

How this time last year I had no semblance of a dream
I let
So-called "realistic" hopes lower my self-esteem
But now
I found the vision, recaptured my younger self
That chubby fifth-grader who didn't change for nobody else

But there's a flip side to it, 'cause I got memories in there (Memories in there)
Of people I used to talk to but now they don't really care (Don't really care)
And even in this new photo, there's someone I don't prefer
'Cause his life got shit that I want, some shit that he don't deserve

And you can bet it makes me mad to see him winning like that
But I can't (Uh)
Stay in bed on my phone, I'm gettin' sidetracked
I gotta (Uh)
Use all this shit as just another driving factor (Yeah)
And turn it back around on they ass

'Cause when I graduate
Believe I ain't gon' stop until I pass away
'Til people see my life and wish they had it
They gon' ask for everything I got
But I remember when you hated
Still remember when you thought that

You had shit on me
They tryna keep me out, but trust it
They gon' see
What every single hour of this gon' end up being
Ain't got shit on me
Y'all ain't got shit on me

Remember all the times that you would count me out?
Don't think that I forgot just 'cause you act nice now
I guess that's something you maybe should have thought about
You used to think I wasn't shit, but baby, how 'bout now?
Oh, oh

Yeah I
Feel like I ain't got no shit to prove to you but
Still, I just say that so I seem cooler to you (I)
Might view you too important, but it keeps me movin' forward (Yeah)
Spend every moon recordin', don't think that I do it for you
I hate you're doing fine, why can't you just be stuck, too (Stuck)
Act together but I don't know what the fuck to do (Fuck)
Wish the way I thought of winnin' wasn't up to you (Up)
Wasn't up to you, yeah

But when I graduate
Believe I ain't gon' stop until I pass away (Oh, oh)
'Til people see my life and wish they had it
They gon' ask for everything I got
But I remember when you hated
Still remember when you thought that

You had shit on me
They tryna keep me out, but trust it
They gon' see
What every single hour of this gon' end up being
Ain't got shit on me
Y'all ain't got shit on me

Remember all the times that you would count me out? (Count me out)
Don't think that I forgot just 'cause you act nice now (Act nice now)
I guess that's something you maybe should have thought about (Thought about)
You used to think I wasn't shit, but baby, how 'bout now? (How 'bout now? How 'bout now?)
Oh, oh

Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Opened it to a memory, "one year ago, today"
