Merc'illest - Old 2 Me Lyrics

I just can't believe what's going on right now
Somebody need to do something or tell something or say something to get to the bottom of what's going on
Cause I hate to live in fear
R.I.E. this is crazy

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Sad days in my head stay scolding me
All this pain in my mind stays holding me
Dark nights in the streets, it was cold for me
Gotta stay from the fakes they fold on me
But all this shit is old to me, aye
I swear it's old to me, aye
All this shit is old to me, aye

I swear it's old to me
Life is bitter some days with no taste
Gotta stay minty fresh like toothpaste
Fakes been blurry, swear they got two faces

I grew up in the city where these people love hate
It's all about clout in this whole new age
And I'm hungry for the better, nigga, it's a new crave
Had nothing way before, so I'm filling up my plate
Tryna better out my life, had to make a clean slate

I got it up with anyone who wanna start a problem
Kept it solid with my brothers, I can never cross em
All about the business, I need me that deposit
It's hard for me to trust, so I gotta stay cautious

Don't tell nobody what I'm doing
Just know I'm moving forward with my life and I'm pursuing
It's been rough , man , don't even know how I can do it
Aye, but I know that I can do it, aye

Sad days in my head stay scolding me
All this pain in my mind stays holding me
Dark nights in the streets, it was cold for me
Gotta stay from the fake, they fold on me
But all this shit is old to me, aye
I swear it's old to me, aye
All this shit is old to me, aye
I swear it's old to me

These streets don't show no love
I'm watching for the opps, even ones without the cuffs
I tend to get mad, apologize for the fuss

There's just a lot of things I don't say too much
I've had some bitter days, minimum wage
Wasn't enough to get paid, nigga, so I slanged
I started grinding every day just to make new bank

Then my mindset changed and I wanted the cake
Kept the flavor of the day, nigga, till this day
And I can never go and change my lifestyle
Throwing shade cause I shine so bright now
I stay moving just to keep my grind now
I keep the watch like I don't got time now
I'm moving forward, gotta keep a straight line now
I'm looking for the most and what's mine now
Yeah, so what's mine now

Sad days in my head stay scolding me
All this pain in my mind stays holding me
Dark nights in the streets, it was cold for me
Gotta stay from the fakes, they fold on me
But all this shit is old to me, ayy
I swear it's old to me, ayy
All this shit is old to me, ayy

It's old to me
I swear it's old to me
