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
