Day Ones
Intro:
The trials and tribulations you all face, the ups and downs, everything you're going through...will only make you stronger
Verse #1:
Been through too much shit in my life already/ fights, involved in plenty/ thats why my minds all ready/ I'm tryna keep my thoughts steady/ from going just mental/ I vent through a pencil, in hopes that it ends on an instrumental/ the flow i spit is not coincidental/ just know it's essential to twist your temple
So much stress I'm battling
I've definitely felt insanity
I've dealt with death in the family
I've felt depressed it was damaging
I've got a couple ex friends mad at me
Cause they wan't me stressing with agony
Cuz their life is a mess and a tragedy
Cuz they never really set up a strategy
Like me, cause they seen that i planned and i plotted, now they're mad that I've actually got it/
Cause i told them I'd make it they thought i was faking but now they all see i was honest
Its amazing what a little time can do/ what a little time can prove/ the lies from the truth/ deny me then lose/ i dare you to come take a walk in my shoes/
Bridge:
Cause I don' seen a whole lot/ an I don' seen a whole lot/ whole lot, whole lot
Hook:
Real friends, day ones, fake ones stay away from X4
Verse #2:
You don't need friends that'll waste your time/ that'll take up space in your mind/
That'll say that they pray for you like they don't hate but you know they straight up lying/
Cause the words that they say to your face are just not the same words said from behind/
Pay attention those are all signs
Eyes wide open don't be so blind
The question is, who really has your back?/ when it all comes down, please answer that/
Don't mean to offend I'm just askin facts/ are they real friends or are you that attached?
I love when hate comes/ cause my day 1's/ will bust ya face up so come and say somethin'/ watch you change up the conversation/ to stay away from all complications/
Homie be aware/ loyalty is rare/ fucking with my team you gon' need a prayer/ now you're really scared/ we don't even care/ we proceed to tear you gon' need some air/
We ride for/ anything we want we do not fold/ get it pronto/ never grind slow/ let time show who's the honcho/
Bridge:
Cause I don' seen a whole lot/ an I don' seen a whole lot/ whole lot, whole lot
Hook:

Verse #3:
Keep a real friend close by bro/ like a 4-5 though/ one that'll fight that'll ride on your rivals/ That'll pull a rifle, if they had to die for/ you and decide when its time for survival/
Move past every wack fake phony/ true cats in my pack mayn only/ cause I’d rather choose to stay lonely/ then roll with a two faced homie/
You pretend to be/ like you are friends with me but i directly see that you envy/
Don’t expect to be even next to me and try to empty me of my energy/
Been there done that get the fuck back/ i ain't fucking with none of yall so fuck that/
Runnin laps around you like a running back
A tough act to outdo i've become that/
Bridge:
Cause I don' seen a whole lot/ an I don' seen a whole lot/ whole lot, whole lot
