It ain't been the same I done watched everyone change Whoever thought I would be rich I was the one begging for change It ain't been the same I was down with no money Now everybody starting to look at me funny It ain't been the same Ooh It ain't been the same It ain't been the same Ohh It ain't been the same Money and fame changed everyone around me I was broke and bummy when they all used to clown me The industry fake so keep that fake love from around me I felt my nigga was leaching I had to keep that boy from around me We had a beat up ass car momma drove us in a minivan I was a jit playing with sticks while y'all were having fun in the sand Grew up in the trenches I had it hard I swear that y'all don't understand Bitch I had to get it how I live nobody gave a helping hand It's a lot y'all don't know y'all judge what y'all see I made mistakes in the past but I know my momma proud of me I took a lot off her plate and I put it on mine to eat Keeping Treyvon name alive I told him rest in peace Like when we're little I told my brothers save a spot for me Got the world on my shoulders, man I'm putting it all on me So many times I wanna give up I hear him screaming please Open your eyes can see you got something to live for It ain't been the same I done watched everyone change Whoever thought I would be rich I was the one begging for change It ain't been the same I was down with no money Now everybody starting to look at me funny It ain't been the same Ooh It ain't been the same It ain't been the same Ohh It ain't been the same Looking at my cars I really done came far Looking at my brand new house I come from living hard I was trapped in the dark all my diamonds shine really hard Seen so much at a early age now I'm traumatized and I'm scarred All these nightmares I ain't have a carebear I was clutching rods I was baking in the house y'all were playing football in the yard Y'all was in band class while I was swinging the block with them guitars No I ain't choose to live this life I sat back and played my cards I got horrible stories I got some problems they annoy me I been trying to wear this pain just Dior me I did some things that wasn't possible Made it out the hood where I come from that's impossible Street born hunter I turn the opps into runners I had that set a couple times I done fumbled it Get out my shit and I recovered it You ever heard your heart beat so fast with two hands you had to cover it? It ain't been the same I done watched everyone change Whoever thought I would be rich I was the one begging for change It ain't been the same I was down with no money Now everybody starting to look at me funny It ain't been the same Ooh It ain't been the same It ain't been the same Ohh It ain't been the same
