WHAT CHANGED

Yeah I wanna know what changed I wanna know the reason why Things are not the same Know what I'm sayin? Listen Got a college degree, but I still can't get a job Interviewed this week, but they haven't called me up Resume is incomplete, but the raps are hitting hard So I ink up all these pages Know that they gon' get me far Lately nothing ever really hits the same Used to meet up with my friends on hot summer days Oh I remember thinking things get better when you age Now I only seem to worry bout how bills are getting paid What changed? I used to never get so tired What changed? We used fly a little more high What changed? I'm swerving out this lane, no doubt Had range And now we at the free throw line Aye You a witness to the moment Let me lock in Came in guns blazing Shot my shot and got it poppin Do it often Should I opt in? Whippin, used to call out shotty 'fore we hopped in Now we can't afford a home Cuz the price always rockets They said get a loan Think I'd rather buy a coffin I should let it go Got no interest in these interest rates Listen to what I'm saying I don't wanna have to iterate Hit it left right left Keep it steady (huh) I stay way tuned in I aint regular I got brand new plans They aint ready (huh) Waiting on my moment like it's batter up But I'm still on top Like the boy is a la mode if you don't see the vision Then you just gotta go This a hot pursuit I presume I'm getting what I needed Till the picture is completed Put together all the pieces Here we go And here we go And here we Man I can feel all shifts and they accelerating The windows to my soul, lately in the basement They turned the lights off, now the flicker fading I went and struck a match And tried to get it flaming Lately nothing ever really hits the same Used to meet up with my friends on hot summer days Oh I remember thinking things get better when you age Now I only seem to worry bout how bills are getting paid What changed? I used to never get so tired What changed? We used fly a little more high What changed? I'm swerving out this lane, no doubt Had range, And now we at the free throw line I just checked my phone for like the 37th time today Opened up another app and closed it out like right away By the way, this a vicious cycle, need a hideaway Days are getting darker, I've been longing for them brighter days My state of mind looking modified Probably all this time that I invest into Spotify The process not optimized, My smile is not as wide Unless the end result come along with some dollar signs That's my demise I still play my role like commissioner (Hold up) I'm still grateful for my current position But listen I work faster In charge of stressing that action I'm really sweating out passion The realest with it The truth is I relish in it Next step to finally finish I gotta survive the business And then Imma buy the business I plead that ya finally listen The start of some new beginnings Ahead of ya I felt the changes I think it's time that I say goodbye
