Lyrics

Yesterday when we were getting high
 You were invited, you would've liked it
 Uh-uh I know you all too well
 I said that we could kiss the past goodbye
 But you weren't excited, there's no way to fight it
 You could stay, but shawty here I go
 Uh, should I spend the weekend in Vegas?
 I'm living inside the moment, not taking pictures to save it
 I mean, how could I forget? My memory's never faded
 I can't relate to these haters, my enemies never made it
 I am, still here with who I started with
 The game needed life, I put my heart in it
 I blew myself up, I'm on some martyr shit
 Carry the weight for my city, like a cargo ship
 Uh, I'm 23 with a money tree
 Growing more too, I just planted a hunna seeds
 It's ironic 'cause my mother was a florist
 And that's how she met my pops
 And now my garden is enormous
 It's happenin' Penny Lane, just like you said
 I avoided the Coke game and went with Sprite instead
 Uh-uh, that's word to the millions that they puttin' up
 I'm tryna do better than good enough
 What am I afraid of?
 This is supposed to be what dreams are made of
 But people I don't have the time to hang with
 Always look at me and say the same shit
 They say, "You promised me you would never change"
 You promised me you would never change
 ♪
 Am I wrong for making light of my situation?
 Clap on, before they got some shit for me to snap on
 Now that I'm on, I don't really wanna worry 'bout gettin' back on
 I'm just tryna stay on, get my fucking buffet on
 I heard they just moved my grandmother to a nursing home
 And I be actin' like I don't know how to work a phone
 But hit re-dial, you'll see that I just called
 Some chick I met at the mall, that I barely know at all
 And, plus this woman that I messed with unprotected
 Texted saying she wished she would have kept it
 The one that I'm layin' next to just looked over and read it
 Man, I couldn't tell you where the fuck my head is
 I'm holding on by a thread
 It's like I'm high right now, the guy right now
 And you can tell by looking in my eyes right now
 That nothing really comes as a surprise right now
 'Cause we just having the time of our lives right now
 What am I afraid of?
 This is supposed to be what dreams are made of
 But people I don't have the time to hang with
 Always look at me and say the same shit
 They say, "You promised me you would never change"
 You promised me you would never change
 ♪
 Uh, I live by some advice this girl Alyssa told me
 The other day Alyssa told me that she missed the old me
 Which made me question when I went missing
 And when I start treating my friends different
 Maybe it was the fast-paced switch up
 Put up two guns in my face during the stick up
 Maybe 'cause the girl I thought trusted
 Was who set the whole shit up
 But in fact I haven't seen 'em, since they locked Big Rich up
 I know, the same time I'm quick to forget
 I'm 'bout to roll me up a blunt with my list of regrets
 Burn it all, burn it all, I'm startin' it fresh
 'Cause half the time I got it right, I probably guessed
 Did I just trade free time for camera time?
 Will I blow all of this money baby, Hammer Time?
 Yeah, I just need some closure
 Ain't no turning back for me, I'm in it 'til it's over
