[XV - Change lyrics]
See this? This is my change man
We usually on skrill but right now I'm tired
Tired of being depressed, I'm very tired
We, we've been, man
We ain't had no money man
I can't even get my hair cut
I can't, I'm not gon' do my haircut
I'm done, I'm almost done i gotta headache
This shit is fuckin' pitiful man
Sitting here counting pennies
Quarters and nickles
'Cause, I'm broke, out here spending all this
Money to see Bad Boys 2, and Terminator 3
I just spent five hundred dollars in
A week and a half
And I knew I was going to the Jay-Z concert
Niggas don't wanna pay me for my beats
We 'bout to blow up though
This ain't gon' be no more counting change
Look, let me take you back before we start
My vessel for the flood on the wave
Noah's ark music in my veins
From the brain to the heart
'03 on the grind, underground like Tony Hawk
From a small pond, but I swam with the sharks
Paid my dues, the only cost for a boss
Used to play Snoop and hit
The mall just to floss
Tryna get change to get a chain with a cross
I gave it all just to win
But it's insane what I lost i've seen kin
Friends and women change for
Fame and the gloss
Mask on, people never see me takin' it off
Fast forward, people hear me
Try to play me as soft
Armory VIP had 'em taping it off
That was show 23, I was taking us off
Change, made a new wave
Changed how we do things
Changed in a new game
Changed up the shoestrings
Changed every five years like Bruce Wayne
Christian Bale out the cell
Fighting through Bane
Gave 'em hell with every
Hail Mary threw mayne
Can't even talk Wichita without who's name
You know the green backpack on the new kid
Running through the biz like who did
This joint went on point then who kid
Out in Vegas slanging tapes with my crew kid
In '01 I was dropping sixteens
Small town couldn't stop my big dreams
Tryna rock the big screen, big jeans
Tops and bottoms, big tees
Back at home got the drama extreme
Got a call in '03, Grandma passed, October 16
Tryna get cream
You know I would make a quick scheme
Which team wanna play us like
We was the sixth string
First string have you players
Pissing down your inseam
We was kings, Royalty Records got guillotined
Me and Seven made all these
Records to hit the scene
Shorty got pregnant then hit me
With the Billy Jean
Had me wanting the pack man
Moved to the Phillipines
I put my energy in this music like just do it
Sometimes you gotta go through it
Just to get through it
Get to it, don't do it the same
'Cause everything gotta change that
Never would change
From releasing the music, to touring
To getting a fan base and finding
My own lane, I've taken all
Those steps, to, you know, get the deal
Now that I've got it, it's
Like, everything starts over now
The whole grind
Is different now, I'm a new artist
Rather than me being like, an artist
Grinding to make it
Now I'm a new artist so now I'm in
The industry, now everything starts over and
You can still fuck up, you can still
Lose shit, you get one shot
Really not all the time, but most of
The time you get one shot to
Really make this shit work
And so now everything starts over
Change moved when the crew didn't talk more
Tryna change the game's tune
Where's the aux cord?
Praying now, I'm breaking down on all fours
I'm staying out
My mama say I should call more
Pass the aux man, gimme the tunes
As we commute I set the mood
This kid of the moon wishes to move through
The map in the middle of June
Niggas' BMs in my DMs tryna give me the poon
But, I know bitches that be fatal when
You get up in they naval
Trippin' with my label so I
Kicked it at the cradle
Darah had shrooms that the homie Ron gave him
It was Hurricane Sandy
We said might as well take 'em to be honest
My whole life I tried to play it safe
Around this time told me not to take a break
But it was hard to keep my
Label and the fans awake
All my peers were making albums
I was here still making tapes
I said I was tired, I never retired
But I was very inspired by Jerry McGuire
I told the label I was
Leaving and took every foul
Took wifey by the hand
And started settling down
Let's change the picture
No more tours and babysitters
Let's do Netflix, chill and making dinner
Never wanted to give up
I'll tell you what make a quitter
When you deal with disappointment
Making a baby wit her
I was lost, every loss I took personal
Turned into Jordan when I would talk
Don't need to come to Jesus
I just need to see the boss
Tried calling on God
I think his phone was off
His plans wasn't transparent but
I seen 'em through
'Cause tough times don't last
Tough people do cold world in a freeze frame
Even got a coin shortage as an
Omen that we all need change
If you're not over here in 15 minutes
You can find a new best friend
You've been saying that since the fifth grade
Twenty bucks says he's sitting
In his car debating
About whether or not he should go out
He'll keep calling me, he'll keep calling me
Until I come over he'll make me feel guilty
This is ridiculous, OK? I'll go, I'll go
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, i'll go shit
We usually on skrill but right now I'm tired
Tired of being depressed, I'm very tired
We, we've been, man
We ain't had no money man
I can't even get my hair cut
I can't, I'm not gon' do my haircut
