"When You're Older" lyrics
I can't go back
You ready? Come on
They used to say, "When you older, you probably gon' get it," I still don't get this shit
I would've never dropped P&P if LV ain't told me that the song was a hit (Spin that shit back, 36ixty)
I always thought I would die as a nobody, now everybody be singin' my shit
You let me sleep on the couch, I ain't wanna go home, brodie, how could I ever forget?
And I lost my dad as a kid, so when Ace mom died, nigga, I really felt that shit
Nobody wanted to slide, so when Cash got shot, nigga, I had to bring out the switch
Soon as I signed that deal, had to pick up the phone, call mama and tell her we rich
Niggas never let me use they lunch code, nigga better not ask me for shit
Niggas never let me use they lunch code, nigga better not ask me for a dime
I was locked up, had to talk to my celly, get food out a slot, and go stand on the line
Drop everything that I'm doin', my niggas my family, I'm makin' sure everybody fine (You good?)
Some niggas tell me I'm one in a million, some niggas tell me I'm one of a kind
Usually, I try to punch in when I rap, but right now, I'm tryna get shit off my mind
Usually, I try to take Percs for the pain, but I'ma just use the mic this time
My niggas know that I'm there if they need me, I got you, my nigga, just hit my line
My niggas know that I'm there if they need me, love all my niggas, no Diddy, I do
High school, I used to always wear the same shoes and clean 'em and act like they new
My lil' sister don't even remember her mom back then, she was only just two
I had a habit of breakin' in cars and houses whenever I'm skippin' in school
I don't be talkin' too much, so when niggas be talkin', hope niggas ain't thinkin' I'm rude
I been alone in this shit for all I remember, so if you wanna leave, that's cool
And I thought pops would see me grow up, when I think back on it, I guess I'm a fool
They used to say, "When you older, you probably gon' get it," I still don't get this shit
I would've never dropped P&P if LV ain't told me that the song was a hit
I always thought I would die as a nobody, now everybody be singin' my shit
You let me sleep on the couch, I ain't wanna go home, brodie, how could I ever forget?
And I lost my dad as a kid, so when Ace mom died, nigga, I really felt that shit
Nobody wanted to slide, so when Cash got shot, nigga, I had to bring out the switch
Soon as I signed that deal, had to pick up the phone, call mama and tell her we rich
Niggas never let me use they lunch code, nigga better not ask me for shit (Better not ask for shit, nigga)
