ERNEST Lyrics

If you listen close you can hear the tables turn

Still see the smoke from the bridges that I burned

Still feel the ghosts of the niggas that I served

Still do the most even though they don't deserve it

Bullshit curve it, life I had to learn it

Even when I'm ashes, they can say that he earned it

Never been the average, I was different at birth

Whole fam cut in half, it's either temple or church

Granny is Muslim, other granny is a Christian

I believe in god but it's something bout religion

Had to play the card even tho a few was missing

You can say I'm flawed but I live with my decisions

Wishing out loud I just want someone to listen

When it goes down everybody plays the victim

Sticking to the mission even when they contradict it

Briss not Missin' you can ask the competition

They know the business

The truth hurts, but a lie could be fatal

When prides on the line, all bets off the table

I seen the best rise to occasion

Just to fall victim to a small altercation

If it's not a grave, then they get incarcerated

It's the same game, just another nigga playin

It won't change so I gotta motivate em

Tryna stay sane while I focus on the payment

Wishing out loud am I crazy?

Wishing out loud am I crazy?

Looking for the words while I'm writing this song

Stuck in the zone cuz the mind gotta a mind of its a own

I took time, cuz that's the only way you can know

You flash in the pan, I'm the flame on the stove

I'm too hot to touched but I'm cold with it

The new spot hella plush, we can go swimming

Was too fly for the bus, there was no women

Now I'm screaming let's gooo like I'm glorilla

Imma go get it, cuz I'm a go getter

Blowin' kush to the gods, word to smoke DZA

Now the shows sold out to the flow with it

Even brought the bros out to perform with him

Wishing out loud

Wishing out loud

Used to wish for everything I got now

Used to hit the function bring the block out

Now I need some money if I pop out

Wishing out loud

Wishing out loud

Used to wish for everything I got now

Used to a want a rarri, need the yacht now

Moms happy for me and my pops proud

Doing pretty good for a drop out

Riding thru the hood with top down

I still get love cause it's my town

Everything I want is what we got now

Did a whole lot to live this lifestyle

Yesterday's price ain't the price now

Any day for me could be light out

But until then I'm wishing out loud
