2014 Lyrics

If I'm in my prime then shit I hit it early

The type of peak you seek but soon enough you start to worry

There's nothing left except your death one day

So till then write that shit that takes your breath away

And when they say it's over just reflect on how you led the way

Instead, I bled on the page, it wasn't red

This my attempt, at stepping away

If you forget me that's ok

Just remember the memories I enabled you

And when you reach the end just pretend I was the greatest cause I'm not

That's a lot to take in

I ain't forgot a fucking thing since two thousand fourteen

But really longer here's the thing

When you're me and only thing you do is cling onto a bygone era

That hasn't been since seventeen

Everything you say or do is impossible to pursue

And if you choose to turn their hands in you're the only one in view

There's nothing left for you except a few regrets

And if you knew the way the few who moved ahead could move

You'd maybe make it too but not for me

I regret to inform you I'll never be

I can't expect them all to sponsor me

If I'm holding on subconsciously

I want to be the best who ever made it out my city

But that's a tall fucking order when I'm living next to Quincy and his dad

Greatest rapper and leader of jazz band

Who signed my records back before my records landed in my hands

If I can tell the twenty fourteen me this shit he's probably mad

Cause the fads that I would chase have almost all but been erased

I guess the state of how this game is lately something I must hate

I guess the state of how this game is lately something I must hate

Do you recall we must have been about fifth form

I guess the state of how this game is lately something I must hate

And you can never stop me till I've finished every single task

In twenty fourteen my life changed

My wife came into my life

Back then I used to sneak over at night

I wrote my first couple stories from pouring over my strife

But it was really just some teenage poetry

Nothing right

I wrote my first raps around this time

You'll never hear them cause I swear I wrote them down on some papers I'll never find

So as we all walk into the future now with every step

Take a look back then leave cause I promise there's nothing left
