Used To Lyrics

I love how this feels man
Haha
Playaa
Got me reminiscing, you know?
TRICITO, Medellín
I used to cop them Jordans almost every week
I used to stuff my problems in a swisher sweet
I used to feel like I ain't got 'em 'til I got 'em beat
I had to stop all the coppin', had to cop some beats
I used to pray for the money now I pray for peace
I still pray for that shot, shit I need my piece
And I got it on my own, I don't need a lease
And I got it, kept it going, I'm a keep it G
Unh
How's that old saying go? Beat 'em never join 'em
In this open gym bet I can teach some pointers (yeah)
My grandma used to tell me I'm a star and how that life was but a movie
Give the trailer never tease them with the spoilers (c'mon)
God's favorite musician I've been Christened and anointed (unh)
My leadership position been commitment from performance (yeah)
Go tell the labels now you can't afford us (unh unh)
Cause ownership we know is now the goal and the importance from the energy I pour in (let's go)
Used to have homies I'd thought would never leave, I hope they better off without me
I used to take it personally when haters talked about me (unh)
And now I get it I'm that nigga, who got a spark about him
But ain't no Static Shock or Candace Parker 'round me
Been smoking on lobster butter tryna plot for summer (yeah)
Used to fuck on your baby mother then I spun her
Even when I worked on my skills I used to wonder (what's up?)
But check the score, now I put up numbers, TRICITO nigga
I used to cop them Jordans almost every week
I used to stuff my problems in a swisher sweet
I used to feel like I ain't got 'em 'til I got 'em beat
I had to stop all the coppin', had to cop some beats
I used to pray for the money now I pray for peace
I still pray for that shot, shit I need my piece
And I got it on my own, I don't need a lease
And I got it, kept it going, I'm a keep it G
I swear I love to compete (yeah)
I hate when niggas send me they music that shit be weak (haha)
Sometimes I feel with rap I can do this shit in my sleep
Or even blindfolded (unh) niggas get scandalous tryna sneak so keep your eyes open wide
Now, I seen an old compadre walking down on Broadway (yeah)
I never showed him disrespect, why would he throw it my way
When you go for title eventually some friends turn to rivals
But can you blame us? I mean we both wanted to be like Kanye
I miss my old clique, now everybody grown and do they own shit (unh)
Guess that was selfish of me tryna bring them on
A dream that wasn't theirs and mad they didn't put they heart and soul in it
Focused on my goals forgetting people got they own visions
Chose to be a poet over dope dealing
Now these gold pendants got me so ignorant (yeah)
I told the children I'm a stone cold killer when I'm coming out to play
And bully all the competition as I shove them out the way because
I used to cop them Jordans almost every week
I used to choose a White Owl over swisher sweets
I used to pray I'd sign to G.O.O.D Music since I heard of Ye
I used to pray I'd make a song as hard as 'Heard Em Say'
And still it's money over bitches 'til the world ends
I captain saved some hoes until I met my girlfriend
You see I got it on my own I gotta lead the team
Cause as a youngin' I was told you gotta keep it G
That's player

I love how this feels man
