BY NOW ft. Cleev Lyrics

I've been picking up the pieces trying to find me

But I just can't let you down

I can't let you see

Standing on the edge the light blinding

If you could just picture me now

If you could just let me recede

Placing all the bets I'm having hoping that I couldn't ever wake up

Would I be the man that you could make up

Would I be the man that couldn't say enough

Illest to the problems I've been cashing in my bank and couldn't bank on

I wish that I could take none

I wish that I could fake none

Got no money sitting in my pocket

But I got a bad bitch, I want to lock it down

Making myself a little profit

Cutting ties that always try to weigh me down

Cuz I am me. I'll always be me

And when I'm rich you'll see

But

I thought I would've had it by now

(I thought I would've had it by now)

I thought I would've had it by now

(By now, by now)

(Gimme that cash right now)

I thought I would've had it by now

(I thought I would've had it by now)

I thought I would've had it by now

By now, I thought I would've had it by now

Aight, screw it, he said it already

Bad bitch by my side for sure

No cash in my dresser drawer

But either way we bout to head in tour

Verses on verses that bury these people in person

No I ain't got time it's just worthless

Unless your got paper in pockets, then me and you buddy

Then there is no business in person

I'm just saying. This ain't for the games

Yeah, I'm just saying, this ain't for the lames

Yeah, I'm just saying, this for the real

Yeah, I'm just saying, where's the fucks the deal

Cuz

Even if you tried to offer we wouldn't sign

Cuz you know that we are in the prime

This ain't in my mind, This filet mignon

Everybody's lookin at me Teeny

He's a King, a Don

He's been killing all this pic shit

He's been killing all the video and the microphone quick shit

Everybody knows this kid, here, ya he ain't no gimmick

I thought I would've had it by now

(I thought I would've had it by now)

I thought I would've had it by now

(By now, by now)

(Gimme that cash right now)

I thought I would've had it by now

(I thought I would've had it by now)

I thought I would've had it by now

By now, I thought I would've had it by now

Waited here for my chance to, show everybody what I can do

Make that money for wifey and my fam too

So we can kick it down in Cancun

Ten years I've been chipping at a brick wall

Taking my time and steady, grinding, staying pissed off

Being taken for granted, cause I'm a kind soul

But take it out of myself for being ripped off

I've never been one to assert, or start talking shit less it's someone deserved

Complacent my nature and pure my intentions

I've been keeping tabs in my honorable mentions

Who believed in me, my day one beasts

When I've been making these beats

To take care of my seed, start holding me to a higher degree

I'll make you believe that Ima succeed

I thought I would've had it by now

(I thought I would've had it by now)

I thought I would've had it by now

(By now, by now)

(Gimme that cash right now)

I thought I would've had it by now

(I thought I would've had it by now)

I thought I would've had it by now

By now, I thought I would've had it by now
