The year is 2020
Shoulders are heavy man
I can't live my life cuz
The stress won't let me
Reminiscing 'bout old times, but
A lot of shit's changed
Picturing smiles wondering if they were fake
Now
All I can do is
Keep my eyes open and to
Get some of the weight off
I got to let some friends go
Who were jibbin' not token man
Who am I kiddin'?
Thinking people could only change for the better
I've done some growing up
Almost everyone has, but
If you ain't stay out of my lane (lane)
I'm trying to be the best me that I can
So I made a mistake
Can't say it won't happen again, but
There's some shit that you just got to
Let go of
Cuz if you don't then life ain't shit
Other than what it already is
Don't you know it's a bitch
So make it yours
The year is 2020
Cruising' in my chevy
I ain't lookin' in my rearview
My mind is trained not to let me
I'm weary of all cuz it just seems like
In the end I'm getting stabbed in the back, so
I'ma do my own thing
Don't take it personal
If you a homie
I want to work on me
Work on family
That means stay true motherfucker
Keep it G
You know I noticed that when I was younger
I was thinking mom and dad were the enemies
But really they were just telling me to be cautious
Because I was hanging 'round some people who
Really were no friends to me
But at the time I didn't know that
But they did
Now I be thinking
I don't need nobody
None other than my family
My mama, who I want to thank so much for
Putting up with my shit for the past nineteen years
Like damn, that's a lot of love
Then there's my father, who I want to thank so much
For teaching me everything that I know
I wouldn't be half the man I'm growing up to be
If it wasn't for him
Then there's Destiny
Some Jekyll and Hyde shit
Could kill her one minute
Then the next would die for
For real
My brother from another mother
Thick or thin, we family at the end of the day
Fuck what anybody's got to say man
They just mad they ain't shit
This 2020 we talking' 'bout
I'ma do whatever it takes man
Before I'm out
