By Now

[Intro]

Yeah yeah

Thought we woulda been got there

Thought we woulda been got there

Yeah

[Verse 1]

I've been livin' through heartbreaks vicariously

I got no problems with people who takin' me seriously

Said none of us hungry, we share and we eat

Keep all our wins when it's very discrete

Runnin' from pride, in love with the time

The sun's in our eyes, we barley can see

Thought about what it'd be like to read your mind

Would it be worth it? What would I find?

Would it turn you to someone I like?

Or make you say you sorry you lied?

Under my wing, right on my side

I love you, it's a habit of mine

Back when I tried to show you the world

That's where the issue lies

Somewhere got stuck, got lost in my mind

Ended up runnin' tryna keep up with time

Somewhere around like summer '09

Sorry about that, so it's been a little while

Go with my gut, it's just my style

Build you up, never tears you down

I just do last round, round my town

Thought we woulda been got there by now

[Chorus]

Thought we woulda been got there

Thought we woulda been got there by now

Thought we woulda been got there

Thought we woulda been got there by now

Thought we woulda been got there

Thought we woulda been got there by now

Thought we woulda been got there

Thought we woulda been got there by now

[Verse 2]

You just keep moving, that's real easy

Chip on your shoulder could go with some chee chees

Wash that down with a San Pellegrino

Way back when, when no one believed me

Wanted to do it, they said that they need me

They take advantage, they want it for freezies

I still do it, I guess it's on me see

That's how I own it so no one controls it

I stay in charge, put that on good fortune

Takes longer but to me it's important

Stuff that you put out, I try to ignore it

But they see a dollar so they gon' endorse it

Take air from your lungs and put Air in your Forces

I just keep faith cause I know who the Lord is

I know that it's hard when they shine and it's gorgeous

Ain't never a reason to forfeit

[Chorus]

Thought we woulda been got there

Thought we woulda been got there by now

Thought we woulda been got there

Thought we woulda been got there by now

Thought we woulda been got there

Thought we woulda been got there by now

Thought we woulda been got there

Thought we woulda been got there by now
