Back Around

CHORUS:

I’ve been waiting on you for a long time
Baby you alright? I promise you’re gon’ be alright
I can see your shadow through the pain
But you’ve gotta fight
I know the end seems far away, another night
And another day, and everything’s gonna be alright

VERSE 1:

Sometimes I think I ain’t got no more fight
Procrastinating man I hate it, but it feels so right
If I ain’t make this, it’d be wasted, couldn’t sleep at night
I’m sorry mama but my pencil only sharp when I write
I couldn’t keep it in my brain this shit might drive me insane
I’m missing home, I still hear dripping on the phone when it rains
Thought I lost it for a second feeling like Cobain
Know I just gotta maintain until I hop on the plane, I’m saying

This what you’ve all been waiting for, ain’t it?
I strayed a little ways but I’m back now, I made it
This a higher power, can’t break what he created
No debating tryna test me but I’m ready
You can grade it, the greatest
In my zone, I know you feel it in your bones
Oh we fell off like Jerome but still they’re watching the throne
Your baby’s fine mama, promise, never losing my tone
I’ll be your baby boy forever but just look, your boy’s grown
I know you ain’t heard from me in weeks
Like I ain’t got no data, or like it’s back in the days
When I’m away and I don’t page ya
Let me explain, want you to see what I’m saying
Let me brush my problems to the side while I paint
You get me?

Still got a lot up in my cart, I don’t know where to start
Feel like I ran up on the claims and then I hit the bars
I beat the system, I ain’t listen when they bet against me
They thought I’d never make it through
That wasn’t you? Correct me
I said I’ll be gone ’til november, I’m late
But I was fucking on my lady, I’m sorry to keep you waiting
I swear I love you Rae, you got me through the pain
You’re amazing, oh wait shit what the fuck was I saying
Been through my phases like it’s 28 days
But landed on 2 feet, I swear I float with the grace, no mistakes
Oh you thought they’d kill me off? That’s crazy
You’re ‘bout to feel the tension like it’s Weezy and Baby
Hold up

CHORUS:

I’ve been waiting on you for a long time
Baby you alright? I promise you’re gon’ be alright
I can see your shadow through the pain
But you’ve gotta fight
I know the end seems far away, another night
And another day, and everything’s gonna be alright

VERSE 2:

I love you Mia, can’t wait for Rae to meet ya
My bonita applebum, you’re the bomb, my señorita
Think I found my way to seventh heaven like Jeter
I never lied, stay fly till I die like Aaliyah
It’s picture frames, but no pics in the frames
All the features in my face were steady melting away
I took a break from the game, but my intentions ain’t change
Spread love to the world, I hope y’all love me the same
Ain’t superficial, this ain’t fickle, I said fuck you to fame
Shoutout my brother’s, keep me humble
Chubbziano that’s gang
I’ve been cooped up in a can, my soul locked in a cage
He said don’t fall off the wave, just keep turning the page
And I flipped out in a rage, I took it out on the stage
I’m breaking down but won’t say it if Simon won’t say it
Too many albums keep dropping and I can’t even play ‘em
My niggas worry ‘bout the kid ‘cause all I do is complain

Ain’t touch the keys in a grip, my homie thought I quit playing
She said, “You’ve changed. The one thing that kept you sane
You ain’t save”, so I came back to my roots
They egg me on at the range, I shoot
I missed the mark, I feel like Memphis Depay, and it’s true
But I readjust like B.K. used to say
Now clips coming at your face I loaded up the AK
I’m ‘bout half way out, and I did it my way
That’s number one out the way
Hope you enjoy the holiday, Merry Christmas
Yeah, and you ain’t even know you had this on your wishlist
Yeah, and if you still ain’t tryna sign me, shit
I’m good, mind your business
Yeah, don’t ever doubt me, learn about me
X and Os, hugs and kisses
