You know

Yeah

Am I still the Gerald that I been from the beginning

Ask ten people you'll get ten different opinions

Should I be rapping should I be singing

Should he be losing should he be winning

Should he keep still in a knife in it

Keep dissing that's just adding fuel to my engine

Is he still the Gerald that he been from the beginning

Ask ten people you'll get ten different opinions

Yeah uh

Somebody in my life was a best friend to me

Been a minutе since my guys sent a text to mе

It really say something think he's judging me

Feel ten miles apart when you're standing next to me

Lifestyles change people grow apart

Won't happen overnight this s**t had the slowest start

Different s**t matter when you open up your heart

Addiction to celebrity could choke you from the start

Crazier than heroine yeah

This s**t hooks you

My uncle died of that

My dad told me that's a good dude

Never met him only heard stories where it took you

And I'm just tryna live

What they think that I should do

'Cause he's got potential he's that precious

He's that special he could be Elvis

He should be the biggest he should put his career first

But no one ever told me

I should go and put me first yeah

Am I still the Gerald that I been from the beginning

Ask ten people you'll get ten different opinions

Should I be rapping should I be singing

Should he be losing should he be winning

Should he keep still in a knife in it

Keep dissing that's just adding fuel to my engine

Is he still the Gerald that he been from the beginning

Ask ten people you'll get ten different opinions

Yeah for real

How could he feel lonely when he's always surrounded

How could he not indulge when he's always around it

How could he does d**gs

Could he still do it without it

How could he fly to heights

Somehow still staying grounded

Some days I really feel like

I could've went for president

Some days I be yourself to charter degenarate

Getting high wasting my time I'm not regretting

People talking bout what I should be doing instead of it

But this is my life at night I go to bed with it

Got some real demons can't seem to cut off the head of it

Pay for my decisions feel like I just lost a bet with it

Maybe my success has been going straight to my head a bit

Maybe I've been listening too much

Maybe I've been drinking all the Kool Aid and fruit punch

Maybe I got it just stop tryna find help

Stop looking outside and look for it in myself

For real

Am I still the Gerald that I been from the beginning

Ask ten people you'll get ten different opinions

Should I be rapping should I be singing

Should he be losing should he be winning

Should he keep still in a knife in it

Keep dissing that's just adding fuel to my engine

Is he still the Gerald that he been from the beginning

Ask ten people you'll get ten different opinions

I'm me for real

Always wash your learn through repetition

Deliver platinum albums you take it as a given

Songs don't write themselves

How you think they're getting written

Wanna judge me

Then come trade me my position

Everyone is talking everyone's reacting

Take it all for granted think these things just happen

Every stop hopping off and on the bandwaggon

Hate the way I'm living criticize my actions

Bought moms a house and

The town was hella proud of it

Booked the next day I did

Some s**t you got a problem with

Almost f**ked up a deal was high

And I was out of it

On a conference call on mushrooms

My words slurred a bit

Mind By myself who I am all the s**t I done

Right now I'm top two solid rappers where I'm from

And I ain't number two that only leaves one

I go at us the biggest f**king

Artist when I'm done for real

Is he still the Gerald that

He been from the beginning

Been from the beginning been from the beginning

Ask ten people you'll get ten different opinions

Ten different opinions ten ten different opinions

Is he still the Gerald that he been from the beginning

Been from the beginning been from the beginning

Is he still the Gerald that he been from the beginning

I go at us the biggest f**king

Artist when I'm done for real

Haha

Your side

These Things Happen Too

Tell me you'll love me for a million years

Then if it don't work out

Then you can tell me goodbye
