Yesterday when we were getting high

You were invited you would've liked it

I-I-I I know you all too well

I said that we could kiss the past goodbye

But you weren't excited there's no way to fight it

You can stay but shawty here I go

Uh should I spend a weekend in Vegas

I'm living inside a moment not taking pictures to save it

I mean how could I forget my memory's never faded

I can't relate to these haters my enemies never made it

I am still here with who I started with

The game needed life I put my heart in it

I blew myself up I'm on some martyr ****

Carry the weight for my city like a cargo ship

Uh I'm twenty-three with a money tree

Growing more too I just planted a hundred seeds

It's ironic 'cause my mother was a florist

And that's how she met my pops and now my garden is enormous

"It's happening Penny Lane just like you said"

I avoided the coke game and went with Sprite instead

Uh-uh that's word to the millions that they putting up

I'm trying to do better than good enough

What am I afraid of

This is supposed to be what dreams are made of

But people I don't have the time to hang with

Always look at me and say the same ****

They say "you promised me you would never change"

Uh uh-uh uh uh-uh uh

"You promised me you would never change"

Uh uh-uh uh uh-uh uh

Uh am I wrong for making light of my situation clap on

When 40 got some **** for me to snap on

Now that I'm on I don't really want to worry 'bout getting back on

I'm just trying to stay on get my ******* buffet on

I heard they just moved my grandmother to a nursing home

And I be acting like I don't know how to work a phone

But hit "re-dial" you'll see that I just called

Some chick I met at the mall that I barely know at all and

Plus this woman that I messed with unprotected

Texted saying she wished she would've kept it

The one that I'm laying next to just looked over and read it

Man I couldn't tell you where the **** my head is

I'm holding on by a thread

It's like I'm high right now the guy right now

And you could tell by looking in my eyes right now

That nothing really comes as a surprise right now

'Cause we just having the time of our lives right now

What am I afraid of

This is supposed to be what dreams are made of

But people I don't have the time to hang with

Always look at me and say the same ****

They say "you promised me you would never change"

Uh uh-uh uh uh-uh uh

"You promised me you would never change"

Uh uh-uh uh uh-uh uh

Uh I live by some advice this girl Lissa told me

The other day Lissa told me that she miss the old me uh

Which made me question when I went missing

And when I start treating my friends different

Maybe it was the fast paced switch up

Or the two guns in my face during the stick up

Maybe 'cause a girl I thought I trusted was who set the whole **** up

But in fact I haven't seen them since they locked Big Rich up I know

But same time I'm quick to forget

I'm 'bout to roll me up a blunt with my list of regrets

Burn it all burn it all I'm starting it fresh

'Cause half the time I got it right I probably guessed

Did I just trade free time for camera time

Will I blow all of this money baby hammer time

Yeah I just need some closure

Ain't no turning back for me I'm in it till it's over
