[Intro]
(Uh, huh)
(Uh, huh)
(Uh, huh)
(Uh, huh)
Ayy
[Chorus]
I used to pour the money into watches on my wrist (What?)
Nowadays I became a little careless (Ayy)
I really thought I couldn't be touched, I'm fearless (Nah)
Nowadays I became a little careless (Oh my, oh my)
And I could care less (Oh my, oh my)
Yeah, yeah
I'm careless
[Verse 1]
I look at myself in the mirror, I'm like 'Who are you?' (Who?)
'Cause you caught up in the things you don't usually do (Nah)
All you do is play games and you're still a noob (Come on)
It's like you're numb to the fact that they ain't feeling you (What?)
You work hard so if you want to chill, it's cool (Uh, huh)
But the only work you're putting in now is miniscule (Uh, huh)
Did you forget thе people clowning you in middle school? (Uh, huh)
Did you forgеt the people that said no one interviews?
You need a win, Joe (Yeah)
Where'd the chip go? (Where?)
It was sittin on your shoulder, now it dipped though (Ah)
Was on a big roll 'till you hit that roadblock
When you made a whole song saying that you won't stop (Yeah)
So what's the deal now? (What?)
We being real now (We are)
This type of Joey Nato, I don't feel now (Nah)
If you're supposed to be the one then you ain't Neo now (Huh?)
I don't know where Nato went but we need him now
[Chorus]
I used to pour the money into watches on my wrist (What?)
Nowadays I became a little careless (Damn)
I really thought I couldn't be touched, I'm fearless (Nah)
Nowadays I became a little careless (Oh my, uh, huh, oh my, uh, huh)
And I could care less (Uh, huh, oh my, uh, huh, oh my)
Yeah, yeah
I'm careless
[Verse 2]
I think it's been a week since we last spoke (A week)
Life doesn't play fair like The Astros (Damn)
I know anxiety, it feels like a half-stroke (It does)
But you love it when the people say your track's dope (Ah)
So now you're waking up and getting to it early (Early)
Couple songs done and it's only 8:30 (Thirty)
Feeling really good, there ain't nothing you're concerned with (Nah)
You put the song out but only couple people heard it (Goddamn)
Now you're feeling low again (Huh)
Damn, I think you need help, you need to phone a friend
Damn, man, you're girl even looking at you different
And you rub her the wrong way 'cause (What?) you ain't known the bed
And you ain't on a break, when you break then you broke (Broke)
Yeah, that might be the realest thing I've ever wrote (Wrote)
My friends say I'm too hard on myself
But they'll never understand I'm the one who's gonna get it most
[Chorus]
I used to pour the money into watches on my wrist
Nowadays I became a little careless
I really thought I couldn't be touched, I'm fearless
Nowadays I became a little careless (Oh my)
Yeah (Uh, huh, oh my), I became careless (Uh, huh, oh my)
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah (Uh, huh, oh my)
Careless (Oh my)
Oh my, oh my, oh my (Oh my)
And I could care less (Oh my)
Woah (Oh my)
Yeah, yeah (Careless)
(Careless)
