BACK THEN Lyrics

I'm tryna make it out, I know they really hatin' on it

My momma know my time is comin', so she waitin' on it

Mashallah, I'm 16 years old, Allah, I'm prayin' on it

You was never there, I had a couch and I was layin' on it

Bags get bigger every time I put my all in and

You was never there when it was late and I was callin

Trap phone keep ringin', tell my brothers that we ballin

Lost my fuckin' feelings, tryna find out where my heart is

Find out where my peace is

I always knew that me and you would never be shit

The way you made me feel, your love was somethin' that I needed

I take that step back and now I'm happy that you're leavin

Yeah, cause how you treat me all the time, I really gotta let you go

Lost my mind a couple times, so I been clutchin' on this pole

Baby, would you hold it down if I was nothin', I was broke

There was nothin' in my pockets back then

My Brodie pulled up to my side in a black benz

I'm tryna leave all of this pain in the past tense

Like, baby, come and take a ride in a black benz

Like, baby, would you show me love if it was back then

If it was back then

I lost my mind a couple times, but that was back then

So, baby, would you show me love if it was back then

So, baby, would you show me love if it was back then

If it was back then

I took our memories and left them bitches in the past

Lookin' for my heart, cause I'm just tryna get my feelings back

I come from the place where they might shoot up at your fitted cap

Grind and stay away, I'm lockin' in, I'm tryna chase a bag

See me doin' good and now you wanna say you proud of me

But you was never proud, I was in need and you was doubtin' me for real

So, every time you pop up, I don't care about how you feel

Cause you never kept it real

You gon' watch all of this timing fade away

My momma notice how I'm hurtin', tryna walk inside the rain

You tryna tell me that you proud, like, get the fuck up out my face

Momma sorry for this pain but I'm a different individual

They know noticing the principle

I'm tryna paint this picture for the younger generation

Any dream you ever had, I really wanna see them chase it

Stay away from people tryna drag you in that lame shiit

Money over power, never wanted to be famous

I'm tryna make it out, I know they really hatin' on it

My mama know my time is comin', so she waitin' on it

Mashallah, I'm 16 years old, Allah, I'm prayin' on it

You was never there, I had a couch and I was layin' on it

Bags get bigger every time I put my all in and

You was never there when it was late and I was callin

Trap phone keep ringin', tell my brothers that we ballin

Lost my fuckin' feelings, tryna find out where my heart is

Find out where my peace is

I always knew that me and you would never be shit

The way you make me feel your love was somethin' that I needed

I take that step back and now I'm happy that you're leavin

Yeah, cause how you treat me all the time

I really gotta let you go

Lost my mind a couple times, so I've been clutchin' on this pole

Baby, would you hold it down if I was nothin'

I was broke, there was nothin' in my pockets

Back then, my brody pulled up to my side in a black Benz

I'm tryna leave all of this pain in the past tense

Like, baby, come and take a ride in a black Benz

Like, baby, would you show me love if it was back then

If it was back then

I lost my mind a couple times, but that was back then

So, baby, would you show me love if it was back then

So, baby, would you show me love if it was back then

If it was back then
