World Changed

[Intro]
(Hit-Boy)

[Verse 1]
I count this money, then I count my blessings
If I ever took an L, then it stood for "Lesson"
I'm the motherfuckin' one, ain't no second-guessin'
Tried to dim my light but my soul fluorescent
Wait, I tried to stay, but this shit depressin'
I even prayed to God, he ain't get the message
I'm livin' in the present, they gon' feel my presence
You can't dim my light 'cause I'm luminescent
I rose from the ashes of the smokin' section
I seen a stranger in my own reflection
I point the Smith & Wesson in my own direction
I would've did it for my own protection
Keep debatin' 'bout the G.O.A.T., I'm the one like two, three, four, five
How you playin' both sides?
How I make one million, two million, multi'
How I make eight figures, eight million, four times
And I was underutilized the whole time, it's rigged
I guess they couldn't find the gold mine, you dig?
The sheep sleep on me, but the G.O.A.T.s co-sign
I stopped thinkin' 'bout the future 'cause we got no time

[Chorus]
The world changed
Damn, the world changed
Yeah, I tried and failed
I've seen my best friends jailed
But betrayal was the real pain
Damn, the world changed

[Verse 2]
Look, I built walls around the house, fuck networkin'
All these bloodsuckers, I just hope this net workin'
Soul searchin', broken-hearted with my chest hurtin'
But I was gifted with the best cursin'
I'm suffocatin' and my weight keep fluctuatin'
I showed love, how the fuck you hatin'?
Damn, I'm the greatest, but that's unrelated
I either overstayed my welcome or I'm underrated
Lately I been tryna wake sleepers, the fake woke, and the gatekeepers
Too shallow for big fish, I stay deeper, we all gotta meet the same reaper
And the same maker, even if we never touch the same paper
Made enough for a surplus, fuck quotas, but the money brought us much closer
Used to be silent when they load up guns (Remember that?)
Now they sit around and upload 'em, I swear the world changed

[Chorus]
I swear to God, the world changed
Used to tell her that you love her
Now you can't even remember that girl name
I swear to God, the world changed
World changed
