Lyrics
Look, I've been on my grind, told you not to get your hopes up
Women want a piece of my life til' they get a close-up
Certain people disappear when I need them to show up
Certain parents lose their kids soon as they grow up
Mm
You gotta do what's best for you, not for your folks
It's a new era, sometimes they don't know the ropes
That's probably why I don't let people get too close
The ones we love hurt us most
I'm at that point where I realize, like, all this shit is on me
Ain't nobody bout to come and save me, this all on me
Ain't nobody bout to come and change me, this all on me
We all got traumas, you just can't put yours on me
And my relationship with God's direct
Everything I want is there already, I just got some more boxes to check
And when that moment comes, I'm keeping it
And cherishing the time, cause moments fleeting
Had to get up out of these cycles I've been repeating
Do things with intention and really give it a meaning
And stop feeling so low like every switch of the season
But like an undrafted rookie, who ain't get playin' time
but came back the next season, Most Improved
Now it's the legends and the stars he's closest to
And yeah, you bad, girl, but he not gon' fold for you
He been waiting on this right here, been overdue
And not miss it over you
Can't leave money on the table, gotta utilize my talents
I've been in the gym, in the stu singin' these ballads
I cut out the bullshit, I've been eating these salads
And life be throwing bullshit, I'm just tryna find a balance
If this world is ending, let me give this shit my best
If this world is ending, let me not live it depressed
If this world is ending, let me minimize this stress
If the world is ending, baby, come let's have some.
Trynna change my situation, I just need some distance
Yeah, I love my family, sometimes I just need some distance
Yeah, I love these hoes, but sometimes I need some distance
It's not personal, I just need some distance
Let me end this with a message to myself
Know in life that sometimes you're just best off by yourself
Cause when you go into that grave, you goin' by yourself
You got God within you, so, listen to yourself
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, listen to yourself
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, listen to yourself
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, listen to yourself
I've been on my grind told you not to get your hopes up
Women wanna piece of my life til they get a close-up
