Elijah the Boy
Not How Started Here
[Hook]
(yeah)
A lot of empty promises
They never feel em
I got a lot of dreams
But they be tryna' kill 'em
I been in my city
I been doing things
Now all they ever tell me
Is boy you changed
Oh God, Oh God
Here we go again
I do this shit for us
But they ain't noticing
I sacrificed my family
And my love life
So I could get that money
And get us right
Oh God, Oh..
(yeah..look)
[Verse 1]
Why you got to start again
Why you hate to talk
But you really love when we're arguing
All that hand clapping
You acting like you're the audience
Think you real tough
Because you been listening to Bardi (yeah)
That's not how we started here
I was in my hood
I was going crazy
Shoutout to the bitches
That was tryna' play me
I see them hoes now
They be yelling save me
But that's not how we started here
That's not what started here
[Verse 2]
You gotta hateful heart and that ain't healthy
That jealously will never make you wealthy
They plotting but they never moving stealthy
I did this shit by myself but they gon' front and say they helped me
You feel me but they never really felt me
They hate that I'm not out here on my ratchet stuff
They'd rather have me faking and start acting tough
These rappers keep saying I don't rap enough
But these sings keep on saying I don't sing enough
So what the fuck this bullshit that y'all bringing up
Melody gifted
I hit them with the bars
But then I melody switch it
I can say that I'm the best
Because who telling me different
My career real long
Your career like a midget
You lil rappers should be actors when they put on an image
Roleplay like today I think I'll be someone different
I'm just bullying you n***as like The Jersey on pimpin'
You might learn something if you shut up and listen
On god, since 14 with the [?]
I tell her she childish like a play-pin
My life is way to hectic to be dazing
But still I'm dreaming till mommy got the big house with the basement
I'm feel that I'm so close that I can taste it (On God)
[Hook]
(yeah)
A lot of empty promises
They never feel em
I got a lot of dreams
But they be tryna' kill 'em
I been in my city
I been doing things
Now all they ever tell me
Is boy you changed
Oh God, Oh God
Here we go again
I do this shit for us
But they ain't noticing
I sacrificed my family
And my love life
So I could get that money
And get us right
Oh God, Oh..
