🎵 Title: “Back When” (Intro) Yeah… It’s been a minute since I really said what’s on my mind Let me talk for a sec… ⸻ (Verse 1) Back when I ain’t have much, I had peace Now I got everything, can’t find sleep Used to walk to the corner store for a dream Now they talk like they knew me before the streams People change quick when the money come Now they all fam, now they all want some I ain’t bitter, I just move a little smarter Circle got smaller, my vision got larger No text back, now she blowin’ up my line Funny how they miss you when they see you in your prime Did it independent, never asked for a dime Now the ones who doubted try to act like they aligned ⸻ (Chorus) Back when, they ain’t see the vision Back when, they ain’t pay attention Now I’m in a different position Lookin’ back, I made the right decisions Back when, I was quiet with pain Now I speak and the world know my name Lost some people, but that’s part of the game I ain’t mad, I just charge it to change ⸻ (Verse 2) Told my mom I’d never fold to the fame She said, “Son, just remember why you came” Used to dream ‘bout the jet rides Now I’m in the sky with a pain I can’t let slide Yeah, I love deep, but I trust slow Had to lose her just to grow Everything come full circle Even fake love got a glow They say “You different now,” I just grew into the man I wrote about I ain’t chasin’ no clout I’m just tryna make my future self proud ⸻ (Final Chorus) Back when, they ain’t dap me up Back when, I was broke, no luck Now I’m up, but I still feel stuck Guess some highs don’t heal what’s cut Back when, it was me and a pad Now it’s flights, shows, and a life I never had Still the same soul, still the same heart I just learned who was real from the start
