  • @jaydinhotv2152
    @jaydinhotv2152 Před 6 měsíci +1

    Intro:
    Somebody should have told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this (x2)
    Verse 1:
    Look, life is a blessing
    You either fail in the most horrible way or make use of it in every second
    But me, I’m just a young teen with big dreams
    In a house all white, grinding is a routine
    Every afternoon, I take my bike out
    Just to reminisce things and think a way that I can fight out
    The pain of insecurity, struggle and fear
    I’m still in school, got through all the grades and still got one year
    My momma told me that this one year is difficult
    It decides your fate, will it be miserable?
    Will it be average or will it be great?
    Will I graduate without the doubt of getting a low grade
    At my home, I sit on my table and write notes
    We ain’t got no time, this year ain’t no joke
    Studying is fun but it is depressing
    This is the problem of being an adolescent, so check it
    Chorus:
    Somebody should have told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this (x3)
    Verse 2:
    My momma come into the room, think I’m workin but wrong
    Instead I’m making all these mixtapes and writing some songs
    I promise I’ll do my work but imma go outside
    Enjoy the nature, the grass, just chill and vibe
    Man, the air so exquisite, the sunset bright
    Orange sky so gloomy, I think I’m losing my sight
    The streets so cold, making me nostalgic already
    I’m going way into the future, these imaginary memories
    Is crazy man, I’m think I’m gettin a tan
    I better go back home and sit under a fan
    And when I go into my room, I stare on my phone
    Just to check if one of my homies sent me history notes
    Because, like I said, I gotta graduate
    And if I don’t, my momma kick me out and I ain’t got no plate
    I ain’t go no cash, will I ever be safe
    I can’t go back in time, just gotta pray for my fate
    Chorus:
    Somebody should have told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this (x3)
    Verse 3:
    I feel like my life is a whole story
    Where I got so many ups and downs but all I want is the glory
    The side characters be my friends from different places
    Friends from afar and friends of different multi races
    Many tragedies happen and some I do come across
    I may forget some of them, call that a memory loss
    Maybe I should make a narrative bout my self esteem
    And I will call that My American Dream
    Damn
    Chorus:
    Somebody should have told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this (x3)
    Outro:
    (Phone ringing)
    Jay, it’s 6pm where are you?
    You do realise you got school tomorrow
    12th grade gon be tough as hell
    If you don’t work hard this year then you ain’t gon get to university
    (Hangs up phone)

    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Yeah, life is a balance
    You lose your grip, you can slip into an abyss
    No doubt you see these niggas trippin'
    Ego in charge of every move, he's a star
    And we can't look away
    Due to the days that he caught our hearts
    He's fallin' apart, but we deny it
    Justifying that half-ass shit he dropped, we always buy it
    When he tell us he a genius but it's clearer lately
    It's been hard for him to look into the mirror lately
    There was a time when this nigga was my hero, maybe
    That's the reason why his fall from grace is hard to take
    'Cause I believed him when he said his shit was purer and he
    The type of nigga swear he real but all around him's fake
    The women, the dickriders, you know, the yes men
    Nobody with the balls to say somethin' to contest him
    So he grows out of control
    Into the person that he truly was all along, it's startin' to show
    Damn, wonder what happened
    Maybe it's my fault for idolizing niggas
    Based off the words that he rappin'
    When come to find out, these niggas don't even write they shit
    Hear some new style bubblin' up, then they bite the shit
    Damn, that's what I get for lyin' to myself
    Well, fuck it, what's more important is he's cryin' out for help
    While the world's eggin' him on, I'm beggin' him to stop
    Playin' his old shit, knowin' he won't top it, false prophets
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this (False prophets)
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Yeah, false prophets
    I got a homie, he a rapper and he wanna win bad
    He want the fame, the acclaim, the respect that's been had
    By all the legends, so every time I see him, he stressin'
    Talkin' 'bout, niggas don't fuck with him, the shit is depressin'
    And I know he so bitter he can't see his own blessings
    Goddamn, nigga, you too blind to see you got fans, nigga
    And a platform to make a classic rap song
    To change a nigga life, but you too anxious livin' life
    Always worried 'bout the critics who ain't ever fuckin' did it
    I write what's in my heart, don't give a fuck who fuckin' with it
    But in a sense I can relate, the need to be great
    Turns into an obsession and keeps a nigga up late
    Writin' words, hopin' people observe the dedication
    That stirs in you constantly, but intentions get blurred
    Do I do it for the love of the music or is there more to me?
    Do I want these niggas to worship me? False prophets
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this (False prophets)
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Yeah, false prophets
    These rappers insecure
    They talk about being a man so much I finally understand that they ain't even sure
    'Bout who they are and why they do this
    Guess I'm included in that category
    As a nigga who done had the glory
    My highest moments come from tellin' all the saddest stories
    I've seen in my life, I be fiendin' to write
    Songs that raise the hair on my arms
    My lowest moments came from tryin' too hard
    To impress some niggas that couldn't care if I'm on
    Therefore from here on out, my hair grow out
    I care nothin' 'bout opinions
    I wanna give hope like the fountains you throw pennies in
    Hit the store, take your diss, make your wish
    This is dedicated to the ones who listen to me on some faithful shit
    I'm on some thankful shit
    But the real God is in you, not the music you coppin'
    I hear my old shit and I know I can top it, false prophets
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this

Never developed the fire for this desire, but now i'm lying .... Wanna be big, but never knew what it took, half of yall would be shook if you could success like a book. But maybe, just maybe; i'm the one that's not stuck in the hood, was never in the flood, but for sure was ever crooked. But now i'm flying, super fly and now i'm trying (just to keep myself from crying x2) I barely see my mom anymore... and that's the giant, I'm David to this Goliath, incompetent and uncompliant. WATCH, as I attack on this titan, like its a riot, with all the debris flying. I'm plumbing so now its piping..

      Back then I used to be a man with feelings
      Walking down the corridor and staring over at ceilings
      I felt depressed now that emotion is revealing
      These days rapper go up with money reeling
      Trying to catch some girls like some fish
      "I had one the other day I served her a dish"
      I want success, I can be there if I wish
      Lyricality in today's rap is what I miss
      Rapper think they the poop, well they swimming in some piss
      I'd rather here Lil Jon screaming in an abyss
      Just a short freestyle I guess. Not better than the guys up top.

    I got bars boys
    Parts like car toys
    Mark this as hard noise
    Cause I'm gangsta as fuck
    And a star boy
    You cant see me
    you must in the hard void
    I'm dancing with the stars
    And they not annoyed
    No selfies no blogging boy
    I'm got a plot to destroy this mainstream shit
    I mean how many songs does it take for us to drift apart from this shit
    I'm the shark with a dogs bark but I'm not barking bitch
    I'm just calling it quits

    [Intro]
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    [Verse 1]
    Yeah, life is a balance
    You lose your grip, you can slip into an abyss
    No doubt, you see these niggas trippin'
    Ego in charge of every move, he's a star
    And we can't look away due to the days that he caught our hearts
    He's fallin' apart, but we deny it
    Justifying that half ass shit he dropped, we always buy it
    When he tell us he a genius but it's clearer lately
    It's been hard for him to look into the mirror lately
    There was a time when this nigga was my hero, maybe
    That's the reason why his fall from grace is hard to take
    'Cause I believed him when he said his shit was purer and he
    The type of nigga swear he real but all around him's fake
    The women, the dickriders, you know, the yes men
    Nobody with the balls to say somethin' to contest him
    So he grows out of control
    Into the person that he truly was all along, it's startin' to show
    Damn, wonder what happened
    Maybe it's my fault for idolizin' niggas
    Based off the words they be rappin'
    But come to find out, these niggas don't even write they shit
    Hear some new style bubblin' up, then they bite this shit
    Damn, that's what I get for lyin' to myself
    Well, fuck it, what's more important is he's cryin' out for help
    While the world's eggin' him on, I'm beggin' him to stop it
    Playin' his old shit, knowin' he won't top it
    False prophets
    [Chorus]
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    False prophets (La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la…)
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Yeah, false prophets
    [Verse 2]
    I got a homie, he a rapper and he wanna win bad
    He want the fame, the acclaim, the respect that's been had
    By all the legends, so every time I see him, he stressin'
    Talkin' 'bout, niggas don't fuck with him, this shit is depressin'
    And I know he so bitter he can't see his own blessings
    Goddamn, nigga, you too blind to see you got fans, nigga
    And a platform to make a classic rap song
    To change a nigga's life, but you too anxious livin' life
    Always worried 'bout the critics who ain't ever fuckin' did it
    I write what's in my heart, don't give a fuck who fuckin' with it
    But in a sense I can relate, the need to be great
    Turns into an obsession and keeps a nigga up late
    Writin' words, hopin' people observe the dedication
    That stirs in you constantly, but intentions get blurred
    Do I do it for the love of the music or is there more to me?
    Do I want these niggas to worship me?
    False prophets
    [Chorus]
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this, be like this
    False prophets (La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la…)
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Yeah, false prophets
    [Verse 3]
    These rappers insecure
    They talk about being a man so much
    I finally understand that they ain't even sure
    'Bout who they are and why they do this
    Guess I'm included in that category as a nigga who done had the glory
    My highest moments come from tellin' all the saddest stories
    I've seen in my life, I be fiendin' to write
    Songs that raise the hair on my arms
    My lowest moments came from tryin' too hard
    To impress some niggas that couldn't care if I'm on
    Therefore from here on out, my hair grow out
    I care nothin' 'bout opinions
    I wanna give hope like the fountains you throw pennies in
    Hit the store, take your diss, make your wish
    This is dedicated to the ones that listen to me on some faithful shit
    I'm on some thankful shit
    But the real God is in you, not the music you coppin'
    I hear my old shit and know I can top it
    False prophets
    [Chorus]
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
    Be like this, be like this
    Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this, be like this
    False prophets (La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la…)

I'm out here grinding so I can ball like dak, be the man with the plan like that,
    Chasing paper until I put my cleats on cuz I'm in the field wen I scrap. I got stripes, I got trophies, il put my team on my back. Ima Touchdown to cause hell when I get back. N neva lack, Humble nigga made it back twice 3rd time I'm comin fa dat ass like the lights
    It would be nice to not have to worry bout shit just only be great and get rich as time flys and shit rollin in my hometown wit the top back and shit not lookin over my shoulder cause of this loud pack n shit. I'm laughing at these fools but it's really sad & shit our young brothers out here blasting shit like it's crunch time..
    If they would've told me it would be like this it would be like this mane
    They should've told me it would be like this if they would've told me...
    Lemme give ya a few bars off my mental fuck a pencil im real rude & I bring that real too. fuck a tool, Ima box dude & leave em blue, u talk shit I put my hands on you.
    you niggas talk bout it but can't back it, they walk cross the line i run pass it.
    You average yall niggas throwin 6s up cause get plastered. This raw talent
    ,a young freshmen, just like a master. YOU human and I'm the rapture, bastard
    , leave em drooling cause They sleepin while it happened. I put vu do on the beat like abracadabra, these fuck niggas in my way boutta get smack backwards
    They should've told me it would be like this, it would be like this manee

    These words are like a control verse
    I choose and pick to repeat and rehearse
    What I read my feelings are hurt
    Oh you start to see humans are fragile you know there worth
    Somebody should’ve told me it’ll be like this 2x
    As wicked as it is
    My head is spinning going to multiple bridges
    Like a spinning fidget
    She gives me the gas for my engine
    When its out my life is temptation
    Back to realize this is my one dimension
    Im not woke so why do I hesitate in every situation
    I tend to try when Im distracted from whats around my environment
    So that means I shouldn’t care what others perceive in my sensation
    These couple of months I have not seeked patients
    Why must I follow everyones path when we all know its bad meditation

    Han detto Kiki puoiessere il vero te stesso
    Io la notte non ci dormo per due rime balzo il letto
    Ma penso a vivere e non vedo
    la gente che mi segue perché neanche io mi seguo è vero
    Quanti kilometri fatti per una idea di te
    che esiste solo nella mente e no non c’è
    al di fuori un senso regolare litigo con la psico ma ora sono regolare
    Io non l’ho mai capito cosa vuol dire
    essere normale in un sistema solare solamente penso che
    non ci si può aggrappare
    la verità la scegli te e a me l’ha data il rap
    La scegli te e a me l’ha data il rap,
    Non litigo con gli altri perché ognuno va da se
    Vogliono fare i duri, ma si scaldano i culi
    c’ho un amico stella alla direzione pensa lui
    Falsi profeti, escono dalle pareti
    Fan tutti matematica e di noi non sanno niente
    Penso troppo a svoltare, mi hai fatto lacrimare, una sbatti è positivo ti impari ad alzare
    Up se vuoi continuare, vogliono tutti il restart restare è molto easy ma fa male
    È tutto questo, cavalco il tempo, il temporale mi ricorda di viaggiare
    ma un mese intero che non ti penso, non ti preoccupare non mi preimpostare non mi prende male frate facci caso lei è cambiata perché niente resta uguale

    I used to look up too you tell the day came now I’m ashamed that the lyrics you’re saying aren’t even worth the money in the world look at it in a universal scale will it be the end of time or be the time that will see the future children in a class reading a book it’s hard too say false prophet but you’re coming out as a genuine person just too change to a relationship of anger in you’re angels body don’t you see we are renting a home some even call it a temple. Is it the end of the prophets that started the game with logical news or the end of a Genius that had it made in a story of his life if I were to speak to you will it even matter I’m just confused about what happened too the logic we had to one another went from hope to money too I don’t even know I can’t even look at the music the same if I were to say I let someone down it’s going to be me as I speak to my future self imma say stay loyal to my story telling and see music that will change lives no matter what I say it’s never blue skys but dark clouds
