Lyrics

Aye, I used to want what you got... Yeah

I used to want what you


I remember wanting buss downs and bad bitches

Hitting switches, fresh fitted's

Expensive linens, A rap career was the golden ticket

I could be Wayne or Hov, I may be, a little different

But I wanted there success, by any means Im finna get it

Ha ha ha

I played myself

I ain't realized what it took to make a name for myself

I had the bars but not the courage to obtain there wealth

I stepped back to get entuned with myself

I used to want what you got

Pablo Esco, moving weight over seas

Biggest drug operation that the world has ever seen

Keep a lot of police and hitta's on my team

Whatever it took to get to the green

Money's the dream, Ma!

I used to want what you had

Jesus was everything

In your saddest moments

You'd cry out and call on his name

Holy ghost filled felt so impossible to obtain

Gave up on that hide and seek game

I used to want what you got, Big bro

Your personalities vast

You never sat down on your ass

Your always out for a bag

And sis your independence

I admire so bad

As a teen you made it out of the pad

I used to want what you got, Dot

The west coast legend

MJ's Neverland Ranch

The average convicted felon

Every big booty chick that had a good pair of melons

Long as she was on my arm and it's telling

I used to want for alot

The plot thickened and damn

Landed in therapy to try to figure out who I am

Shit I used to think mental health therapy was a sham

But now I see the red flags of mental health in my fam

And they blind to it


Niggas be slaves to a name

Jordans, Dior, your slaved to a whip and a chain

Ferrari's, and cuban links, status on the brain

Plantations recruiting niggas and y'all falling for the game

It took me many moons to see my people still in chains

Everybody claiming woke like it's easy to obtain

I used to want for everything, my ego was in pain

I'm stretching thin, outside in, I can finally see the strain


Hold up...

I am not the nigga with colored hair and face tats

I ain't make the Forbes doing business deals and hustle raps

I have no idea what it's like to push coke over seas

My Family I love but I see the need for some therapy

Drop the substances, and identify what you truly need

I ain't talking God, The gospels in you if your truly free

Focus on the now, not the future, that's how you sow a seed

Yall be smoking weed cause you can't manage your anxiety


Question...

Do you know yourself?

Do you spend time in your garden?

Do you grow yourself?

Can you even say that your living?

Do you hold yourself?

Accountable for all the lack

It's time I give you some facts, I'm providing wealth

Im preachy, and y'all don't like that shit

Victims always be making excuses cause they like that pit

You be trying to lend them a hand and they smack that shit

Then they try to blame it on you

Well that's as low as it gets

I had to undergo a paradigm shift, adopted some new thoughts

Being a better me took seeing myself in all faults

I Questioned everything, even the things that my parents taught

They did the best they could with what they had

There's no love lost

Only love gained, I see the world through a clearer frame

I'll push love till the day I die, and try to never shame

Wanting what you got, was just my ego trying to feel inflamed

The day I choose me, is the day that nothing was the same


Nothing was the same... Naw

I, I used to want you got,

I used to want what you had,

I used to want what you wanted

Naw

Naw

Oh

And now I chose me
