They say that all your old girls got somebody new I said, "Damn, really? Even Rosemary? Even Leann Sealy?"
They said, "Fucking right, they were the first to go" It´s nothing personal It´s just that all them women that you slept on been working though They´ve been saving up, new niggas came around, they been waking up With "I swear, you don´t know this city anymore They might have loved you before But you´re out here doing your thing, they don´t know you" Ah, sure they do, they just not as sincere It´s crazy all the emotions forgot in a year She like, "Why you even give a fuck, you not even here?" Well, out there there ain´t nothing for me and I think I need to come home
Tell me, who did I leave behind? You think it got to me, I can just read your mind You think I´m so caught up in where I am right now Uh, but believe I remember it all
I be with my nigga Chubbs, he in love with street shit No wonder why I feel awkward at this Fashion Week shit No wonder why I keep fucking up the double-cheek kiss And long for that ignorant Young Money Miami Beach shit Couple artists got words for me, that´s never fun They say it´s on when they see me, that day don´t ever come I´m never scared, they never real, I never run
When all is said and done, more is always said than done And I was told once, things will change By a nigga named Tip when my deal came Told me it´s all good, even when it feel strange Now I´m that guy that know them strippers by their real names Rochelle, Jordan Thick bitches, they just talked me out of four grand How´d a pile of kush become a mountain of truth? How´d a bottle of wine become the fountain of youth? Damn, my biggest fear is losing it all Remember how I used to feel at the start of it And now I´m living a muhfucking fairy tale And still trying to keep you feeling a part of it Yeah, just lie to my ears
Tell me it feel the same, that´s all I´ve been dying to hear Lights get low and that´s when I have my brightest ideas And I heard my city feel better than ever, that´s why I gotta come home
Tell me, who did I leave behind? You think it got to me, I can just read your mind You think I´m so caught up in where I am right now Uh, but believe I remember it all
My mother is back to who she was years ago It´s like a new page me and her are beginning on I wish she´d stop checking up on women I can´t stand ´Cause I got new girls I could use her opinion on
She thinks I´ve become a slave to the wealth But I´d never break the promises I made to myself And I would never make up names for myself Then change the names that I just gave to myself Certain rappers would call me to say "What up, though?" I used to brag about it to my friends And now I´m feeling like all of these niggas cutthroat And maybe that´s all they do is just pretend Damn, but I bought it though, I believed it Yeah, I thought it and I achieved it Yeah, so show me love, show me fuckin´ love ´Cause I thought it was all I needed Yeah, clearly I was wrong about it all along And this´ll be the year that I won´t even feel shit They trip off the amount of people that I brought along
But I´m just trying to be surrounded by some real shit Need credentials for every one of these Toronto kids I promised they´d see it with me, we just trying to live I told ´em we about to get it and we finally did Listen closely to my shit, I swear it´s sounding like home
Tell me, who did I leave behind? You think it got to me, I can just read your mind You think I´m so caught up in where I am right now Uh, but believe I remember it all
