This Ain't New to Me

Doin' this shit helped me stay alive This ain't new to me I been writing rhymes since I was five This ain't new to me All these people trying to kill my vibe This ain't new to me By my side I got my ride or dies This ain't new to me One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten Swear it's just that simple I don't know what you can't understand Take a look into my lens I ain't have too many friends Poppin' bottles, makin' trends Aristotle, grab my pen That fountain pen The time we spent It was there when I had to vent From further pain it would prevent From me to feel in the distant Future when I got this shit, and you were acknowledgin' Crazy how quick shit can switch So I keep embracing it I'm chasing it, but my subconscious is holding me back Feelin' like a heart attack But i'm back up, yeah Reelin' in all of this cash Trying to stack up, yeah Revealin' what's under my mask when I'm rappin', yeah Doin' this shit helped me stay alive This ain't new to me I been writing rhymes since I was five This ain't new to me All these people trying to kill my vibe This ain't new to me By my side I got my ride or dies This ain't new to me When I wake up, see the sun Is it dusk or is it dawn? Feeling right where I belong Live like we in Babylon Yet they always asking me "what's wrong?" Nothing's wrong I just keep living life and moving on Treat this life like a marathon We keep calm and we carry on Making these hits like I'm Barry Bonds Blowing theIr minds like a cherry bomb These raps I make are more than just a singalong... For this life I'm taking flight, so I grab my carry on I'm chasing it, but my subconscious is holding me back Feelin' like a heart attack But i'm back up, yeah Reelin' in all of this cash Trying to stack up, yeah Revealin' what's under my mask when I'm rappin', yeah Doin' this shit helped me stay alive This ain't new to me I been writing rhymes since I was five This ain't new to me All these people trying to kill my vibe This ain't new to me By my side I got my ride or dies This ain't new to me
