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 sh- 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 sh- 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?

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 sh- 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 s- 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 - 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?
