Yesterday Lyrics

One, two, one, two

I known this bitch for a while

When phones had dial tones, I had this bitch on speed dial

Switched to cell phones, running up minutes by the mile

Run a mile a minute, boy, you need to slow down

Trying to get up in it and you don't even know how

But every time you get up in it, know you gonna put it down

I been in it for a minute, yeah, I hope you see me now

And those messages you're sending, I'll read them when I touch down

I know it wasn't like this when I was around

You was the first one to really fuck with my style, yeah

I know I wasn't like this when you was around

You was the first one to really fuck with my sound, yeah

I know I wasn't like this when I was around

But I'd rather see her smile now

Uh, I know I wasn't like this when I was around

Yeah, I hate to see y'all frown

But I'd rather see her smile now

It wasn't like this yesterday

Things just seem to get in the way

She's a compliment to Birkin bags

Ignore the dollar signs, skipped over red flags

She had me in a trance, I can't forget

Dollars make sense, underline, I gotta get the bag

When she talking settling, she talking me

Credit ain't good, 563

She want the house and the car

When I spit these bars, can't sell them for 10 a key

She saying my words, they lack potency

I'm stuck in the 90s, I'm playing Jodeci

I told her that the 90s coming back

She threw my backpack and told me this ain't poetry

She the perfect song to the perfect beat

Perfect queen to the perfect chief

And how I spit these bars, fighting these odds

Now we on a better street

It wasn't like this yesterday

Things just seem to get in the way

Of us

It wasn't like this yesterday

Things just seem to get in the way

Of us

It wasn't like this yesterday

Things just seem to get in the way

Of us

It wasn't like this yesterday

Things just seem to get in the way

Of us

Sunday night, feeling right, tux is off white

Barber precise, it's about to be a long night

Conversation was tight, we partied all night

Ass looking fluffy in that dress, I called her brown rice

I was bent, her accent was lower London

Fresh Prince, representing South Columbus

Belly exposed, diamonds on her waistline

Sexy, like Zoe Saldano in Drumline

By the night, Kyran about to bag a winner

Then I saw that tan line up on her ring finger

I paused, Selena, yo, you acting wild

She laughed, it's a complicated lifestyle

Took me by the hand to the back room

Three o'clock in the morning, I'm feeling high noon

Gave me the keys, we rolling to a G5

The Aston Martin alive, she ready to ride

It wasn't like this yesterday

Things just seem to get in the way

Of us
