Lyrics The Old Me - Jarren Benton, Shaolin G

The Old Me

I done been through a lot, now a nigga way too hot
All them years I never had anything
But the kid never dropped, had to turn it up a notch
Ayy (Ayy), had to turn it up a notch
Makin' sure a motherfucker listenin'
Nowadays, I be out of my zone
You ain’t know the old me, nigga, leave it alone, ain’t never stopped (Yeah)
They wanna see blood
Whether it’s period blood or busting your fucking face, they wanna see blood
They wanted the old Jarren, I just wanted your love
They dont give a fuck, these kids wanna see blood
Okay, ahem
This ain’t for the emo
This for my disturbed niggas that snort up a kilo
Look up to a gangster like it’s some sort of a hero
When the bad guy died as God tortured the evil (Brrt, haa)
They wanted that old Jarren, that ain’t got a soul Jarren
That raised by the wolves in the wild without no parents (Yeah)
Razor blades, steak knives, need more Jarren
That bash a nigga’s brain out his skull with a pole Jarren (Blaow)
A cold heart, can’t feel a beat and is poor Jarren (Uh-uh)
What happened to you, where did you go Jarren?
'Cause rap feels soft, bunch of colorful hoes Jarren (Bitch)
Whole lot of pussy-ass niggas is now appearin' (Fuck 'em)
Okay, listen, I’m a artist, dawg, I gotta grow (Gotta grow)
I’m more than a skitzo, niggas oughta know (You oughta know)
I give you motherfuckers my heart and soul
I share pain, my life, my highs and all my lows (Facts)
Appreciate the love that’s reciprocated
And the fans that fuck with the music with no stipulations (Love)
I’m not freebasin' with Kevin Bacon
My grandma dead, I ain’t goin back to her basement
I ain’t never stopped, never killed the motherfuckin' old me (Okay)
I done been through a lot, now a nigga way too hot
All them years I never had anything
But the kid never dropped, had to turn it up a notch
Ayy (Ayy), had to turn it up a notch
Makin' sure a motherfucker listenin'
Nowadays, I be out of my zone
You ain’t know the old me, nigga, leave it alone, ain’t never stopped (Yeah)
They wanna see blood
Whether it’s period blood or busting your fucking face, they wanna see blood
They wanted the old Jarren, I just wanted your love
They dont give a fuck, these kids wanna see blood
Okay, ahem
This ain’t for the emo (Uh-uh)
This for my niggas they said that wouldn’t amount to zero (Fact)
Gotta talk to God with a gun in the cathedral
'Cause the wicked, they could murder you on the drop of a needle (Brrt, haa)
They hoppin' out of a Regal with Glocks, choppas, and Eagles
You gotta watch for your people, it’s hard to spot out the evil (Yeah)
Don’t let 'em try to mislead you, they always plot on the feeble
The block is always deceitful, you gotta pause at your ego (Haa)
Okay, traumatized look up at the summer sky (Summer sky)
God, why the good ones always gotta die?
(Why they gotta die?)
Niggas wanna ride when you doin' fine (Yup)
When shit hit the fan, then they all, «Bye»
Okay, listen, I’m a artist, dawg, I gotta grow (Gotta grow)
I’m more than a skitzo, niggas oughta know (You oughta know)
I give you motherfuckers my heart and soul
I share pain, my life, my highs and all my lows (Facts)
Appreciate the love that’s reciprocated
And the fans that fuck with the music with no stipulations (Love)
I’m not freebasin' with Kevin Bacon
My grandma dead, I ain’t goin back to her basement
I ain’t never stopped, never killed the motherfuckin' old me (Okay)
I done been through a lot, now a nigga way too hot
All them years I never had anything
But the kid never dropped, had to turn it up a notch
Ayy (Ayy), had to turn it up a notch
Makin' sure a motherfucker listenin'
Nowadays, I be out of my zone
You ain’t know the old me, nigga, leave it alone, ain’t never stopped (Stopped)
Dron is the one bro
I ain’t never stopped
I ain’t never stopped
I ain’t never stopped
I ain’t never stopped
They wanted that old Jarren, that ain’t got a soul Jarren
I ain’t never stopped
Raised by the wolves in the wild without no parents
I ain’t never stopped
Look up to a gangster like it’s some sort of a hero
I ain’t never stopped
Sort of a hero
I ain’t never stopped
