[Intro]
(Wait, Matthew, did you make this?)
History repeat itself
I watched history repeat itself

[Chorus]
I'm starin' in the mirror, I'm alone as I figured
Nobody here to show me love, Von on the picture
Not only was I givin' up, an uncompleted mission
They still gon' treat me like a thug, I'm tryna change my image

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna live in vain and It get hard for me to explain
Cold world in which it rain and they throw mud upon my name
I'm reminded, feelin' strange and I collided with my gang
At the crowd I wanna aim, who I don't hit gon' know my name
See me appearin' strong, don't know I go through shit at home
Livin' life, you facin' dеmons, I praise God in all my songs
Them n***as ate 'til it was bonеs and compensate you on a song
Don't never hate me if I'm wrong, couldn't keep a list, what's goin' on?
There so much shit I won't forget, how you in love, but turnin' tricks?
Kept it solid on his end, but you know hoes still gon' exist
Any day they gonna switch up, product of the crib
I pray Nine get that appeal and I know bro gon' watch my rear
Like who really got my back? Since I don't know, I won't relax
They know I always got my strap, even though I tell 'em I ain't got it
Got respect and only dap these n***as hands and set a trap
I wanna exchange my energy, I kept 600 on the map
[Chorus]
I'm starin' in the mirror, I'm alone as I figured
Nobody here to show me love, Von on the picture
Not only was I givin' up, an uncompleted mission
They still gon' treat me like a thug, I'm tryna change my image

[Verse 2]
I'm just tryna base my limits off of seein' my momentum
I calculate my moves with everythin' it takes to win 'em
I grew up with dirty shoes, bleach stains and old denim
Sometimes you struggle harder when you ain't got, but still a lender
Don't compare me to my friends 'cause some broke and some richer
I see the weak, I'm gon' defend, I'd rather life be of a mixture
Every n***a ain't a man, it hurt to face life life like a blister
Most kills don't have a reason, a lot of shit becomes vindictive
I was six, became a Christian, they got rich off my religion
They bring heat up on the Bible and say that most be contradictin'
If you read between the lines, you see that plenty can be witnessed
A different story every book, so you can't change with one's vision

[Chorus]
I'm starin' in the mirror, I'm alone as I figured
Nobody here to show me love, Von on the picture
Not only was I givin' up, an uncompleted mission
They still gon' treat me like a thug, I'm tryna change my image
