Yeah, it's 2014, I'm listenin' to Forest Hills Drive
I was movin' on the bus, cuz I ain't have me no ride
Being rich ain't on my mind, I'm like that shit a facade
I was learnin' from mistakes, cuz I ain't have me no guide
On God, listened to Cole, he was talkin' bout the Ville
Remind me of L.A., the way these niggas kill for thrills
Momma stressin' out, cuz we ain't payin' off them bills
Lookin' back on them days, man, that shit just give me chills
On me, I'm in the streets, and I be feelin' hella comfortable
Older homies teach me shit, I eat it like a Lunchable
Had a couple squabbles, they was beatin' out the punk in you
Eatin' off of E.B.T., we broke in like a month or two
Man, ain't no substitute for none of them days
Couple females I was fuckin' with, I take them on dates
Got a summer job, I'm workin', finally got me some pape
The homie different now he in the set, he bangin' on Grape
Damn, so competitive, never nobody toppin' me
Hustle, motivation, my nigga it ain't no stoppin' me
Path full of obstacles, nigga, it never got to me
Hood trophies, rappin' the real, it's me and Kev Ali
Yeah, it's me and Kev Ali
What up, fool?
Shoutout Lamont, get me on the verse
Let's get it
Uh it's 2014, I'm listenin' to Forest Hills Drive
That's right around the time I started to open my eyes to harsh realities
We workin' hard for minimum salaries, increasin' our calories
Cuz they feedin' us fallacies
A 2014 Adolescence, right around this time I'm 16
Caught up in a box, I didn't have no big dreams
A tale of two fifties, I'm a hunnid, so you feel me?
I'm startin' to believe y'all don't deserve to see the real me
Then I flipped a switch and told myself I gotta focus
I'm outside the box, now I'm lost in a vortex
Overthinkin' strategies if I'm bein' honest
Eventually I lost me if I'm bein' honest
Then I found myself as a reference to my wealth
I learned to love mine and teach you to love yours
And I'm blessed with what I have
But what's wrong with wantin' more for myself in this world?
