[Intro]
Ay
Ay
[Verse]
These are some wild times, running to the money like I never made it
Chased by the past but I can't change it
Nothing in the world will ever be the same, kid
You might not know what my name is
But all my music is ageless
They think I'm on hiatus
Apologies for my lateness
These are just wild times
Running to the money like I never made it
Spit that back like verbatim
All your music too basic
I know they all been waiting
To see what I'ma be sayin'
Living in in the future so I gotta make it
Nothing in the world will ever be the same, kid
I told y'all 2020'd be quite the scene
Despite 2020 I don't think y'all could see
I think I gotta be more careful when I speak
Cause I might fulfill my prophecy
I been getting big, I gotta eat
Working on a catalogue to build my regime
I don't think I've felt so free
Haven't slept since I made Sleep
Name another up-and-comer touching me
Name one artist in my league
And I'm just getting started, please
Had to wake up for my dreams
These some wild times, running to the money like I never made it
Was always told I'm goin' places
Time is mine, that's why I take it
Being this good is kinda dangerous
You always think about when your last day is
You know you're destined for greatness
So don't mind me, I feel amazing
These are just wild times
Running to the money like I never made it
Living in the future, and I gotta make it
If it don't make dollars then it don't make sense
Wait, all this talk bout being legendary make me nauseous
Thought I'd take a break, but I was making hits regardless
Talking like I won a race, but I'm just getting started
Don't ask me 'bout no album dates, I'm a selfish artist
Illo hit the target, ay, in the darkness
I can't even compare cause competition looking harmless
Ay, 'cause they armless, yuh, 'cause they aren't us, nah
Had to cook this up, I know my people starving
Wild times, running to the money like I never made it
Switch my tone and my cadance
I get bored with the same thing
You don't know the plays I made
And ran from home like first bases
Just to find space to make this
And make time for me to take it
Your songs in some old playlist
My tunes in her rotation
Put your hips in rotation
You and I ain't the same, kid
My songs have their own language
She get lost in translation
She wanted her kids to know greatness
So she put them on to The Pavement
Those were wild times, my crew pulled up guns blazing
Your crew exploit black faces
I think your crew might be racist
We livin' in a time that's too dangerous
Everybody wanna be famous
Every artist wanna be the greatest
Before you run fix your laces, wait
Made the people sweat and made a mess and now the floor is wet
Try to step to this I'ma watch you slip like Freudian
Had to hit the bottom for the bounce, now I'm going in
So when this hit the speakers better jump, ain't no loitering
Stuck with the pressure until I started exploring it
Almost died without a voice, now here I am recording it
Wasn't sleeping in my studio when it hit 4 am
So when this hit the speakers better jump, ain't no loitering
[Outro]
When this hit the speakers better jump, ain't no-
