"INTRO" lyrics

"INTRO"

Just a girl from Alabama, but you already knew that
And I love my city, but I ain't tryna' move back
So if I wanna stay put where I am, I gotta prove that
So now I'm acting Hollywood, I'm smoking on this new pack
Get to sparking up
I swear I be feeling so done (I be feeling so done)
Tired of this grown shit, nigga I'm just tryna live young (I'm just tryna live young)
I been taken for a ride (I been taken for a ride)
Probably could've been a run (Probably could've been a run)
Hard to really find the time (Hard to really find the time)
I'm too busy going dumb (I'm too busy getting dumb)
We just out here tryna function
Why it gotta be discussion? (Why it gotta be discussion?)
Prices up and the vibe is down, nigga
We can probably thank the Russians (We can probably thank the Russians)
Pussy nigga in the office (Pussy nigga in the office)
Miss when it was our cousins (Miss when it was our cousins)
He was on his bullshit too, but he was one of ours, so we loved him
It was simple times writing simple rhymes
We was young and free and we was semper fi-ing
Nothing complicated, it was simplified
Wouldn't trust the peace we had then (trust the peace we had then)
We had one for anything [?]
We had friends
We had our bikes
Who needs a benz?
From little tikes to hittin' pens
Now we losing our minds and we making amends as we sitting and ponder when it all ends

Time machine
Take me back to when it all made sense
Times when we were filled with laughter
And none with suspense

Skinny knee but we swore that it didn't even hurt
Had our head in the clouds and our feet in the dirt
Selling candy, the only real means to get work
Get 'er high on supply 'cuz it keeps us alert
It was thrills, now it's bills
Selling out, corporate shills
Everyone's got a vice, but we're warned about those pills
When you're young, you just wanna be grown
And when you're grown, you just wanna go home
