About This Track

50 Cent recounts the fracturing of G-Unit over a track that reads as genuine catharsis rather than calculated grievance. He moves through a catalogue of betrayals: the label politics that threatened his career, the hangers-on who vanished when the momentum slowed, the women and associates who proved false when tested. Young Buck and Kidd Kidd add their own verses on the theme of loyalty corroded by success, each voice carrying the particular sting of having watched the circle collapse from within. The song draws its emotional weight from specificity. 50 names names, recalls moments, sketches the texture of disillusionment with the kind of detail that suggests real reckoning rather than performance. It harks back to the introspective register of his earlier work, a moment where the bravado recedes and something more vulnerable emerges. The production stays lean, letting the verses breathe and the hurt accumulate across the track's length.

"Changes" is a track by G-Unit, from the album The Beauty of Independence, released 25th August 2014. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Changes

[Verse 1: 50 Cent & Young Buck]

All I hear is Jimmy want my shit to flop, Dre don't care if I blow

Goddamn, all this from fucking selling headphones

Chris died, Theo didn't show up to a nigga wake

Which indicate the team I thought we built, it was fucking fake

Barry's drunk, Barry dump, Barry's in the pen again

I'm back at the drawing board, somebody call Eminem

These days can't believe what you hear on the street

That nigga said he owned the team, he only owned a seat

That's fool's gold we sold to you fools, I watch you buy it

What's this here some kind of new hustle, I might try it

This flow got us all put on so I know I'm nice

Fucking with the wrong bitches got me cold as ice

[Chorus: 50 Cent & Young Buck]

These niggas'll change on you (wooooo!)

I can't keep count of how many times I done watched them change on me

Shawty changed on me

It's the Unit, ain't nothing changed, yeah

Now they hate everything I do

I can't help but win, I'm a winner, nigga, you changed on me

Niggas'll change on ya, damn

Bitches'll change on ya

[Verse 2: Kidd Kidd & Young Buck]

Uh, guess I gotta stop posting all this money on Instagram

They welcome you with open homes and open hands

I ain't rich like 50, I just know the man

Red emoji faces in your text, I know you mad

Pitch me a few dollars, more than sure you can

When you balling the world's on your shoulder pads

I don't owe you nothing, they busting, you ain't bang back

You never fronted me nothing I couldn't bring back

They gave dap, now they saying you never gave back

You never gave me nothing I couldn't pay back

Now you talking to the Feds because you ain't fed

Give a nigga a foot, they want your whole leg

Ay Kidd... fuck what he said, tell 'em get his own bread

If niggas got a problem (that's a code red)

That's when niggas pull up with long dreads

Bumbaclot, man, shooting at your forehead

Buck, buck, buck, buck, brrrrrrrrrrah!

[Chorus: 50 Cent & Young Buck]

These niggas'll change on you (wooooo!)

I can't keep count of how many times I done watched them change on me

Why you change on me

It's the Unit, ain't nothing changed, yeah

Now they hate everything I do

I can't help but win, I'm a winner, nigga, you changed on me

Niggas'll change on ya

Bitches'll change on ya

[Verse 3: Lloyd Banks & Kidd Kidd]

They say family's first, but family is the first to get you hurt

And these hoes even worse, all these riches is a gift..

..and a curse

Hate running all through the tree, thought they be rooting for me

Backstabbing, lies stacking, the truth is gory

Forever holding on the grudges from my early struggles

They see you go out and get it then want it from you

Say you'll never be a winner, show up at your parade

Outside showing you smiles, inside hoping it fades

Rather be low now, money over the stage

Sanity over fame, eye-candy calling your name

But it changes, their love is dangerous, fog up your aim

It's, a million ways to hit them cages shit's contagious

Forget my favors, I'm outta' here, flipping pages

You slipping backwards going with all the other actors

[Verse 4: Tony Yayo]

The limelight is hot, I ain't ask to be here

The money and the power make problems disappear

People change like the weather

I weather the storm until it's better (better)

And these fake ass niggas wanna shake my hand

Instagram hoes backstage with fans

And the snakes in the grass ain't a part of my plans

Stab me in my back and they say I changed

[Chorus: 50 Cent & Young Buck]

These niggas'll change on you (wooooo!)

I can't keep count of how many times I done watched them change on me

Shawty changed on me yeah

Now they hate everything I do

I can't help but win, I'm a winner, nigga, you changed on me

Niggas'll change on ya, damn

Bitches'll change on ya

[Outro: Young Buck]

Some of you motherfuckers changed for the worse though

Some niggas change for the better

Some bitches'll just never change, hahaha

Some of these hoes'll never change, man, yeah
