So Far |
| So long to the old me, baby |
| You gon' get to know the new name |
| Shit was all good a week ago |
| But now things been gettin' so strange |
| Cause I’m so far, so far from the one you used to call me |
| I’m so far, so far from the man I used to try and be |
| When all these dreams they made up are no more |
| I’ll make up some more |
| Used to make up shit |
| Then I threw that makeup all on the floor |
| And smeared all over everything |
| That I thought that you loved me for |
| I was searching for some help |
| Then I fell in love with myself, blah |
| Yeezy shoulda signed him, Khaled shoulda signed him |
| Way I murder shit, you think that Jeffrey Dahmer woulda signed him |
| Came up in the sticks, had the city on my mind |
| Dedicate this one to Nas, my version of my book of rhymes |
| Mama raised a pro prolific kid with a flow though |
| Black a la K-Ci, JoJo, anytime that I go go |
| For it like Forrest Gump, I’m forest like 401 |
| And since I’m calling the shots, they call me son of a gun |
| My saliva and spit can split thread into fibers and bits |
| So trust me I’m as live as they come |
| Got a little cold, couple summers, no sun |
| 'Til I found love and fallen to the one I’ve become |
| So long to the old me, baby |
| You gon' get to know the new name |
| Shit was all good a week ago |
| But now things been gettin' so strange |
| Cause I’m so far, so far from the one you used to call me |
| I’m so far, so far from the man I used to try and be |
| Extra, extra, read all the fuckboy about it |
| I’ve been double, triple dotted way before my ass was scouted |
| I was singing off key, but this dream was in my rearview |
| I just took it somewhere, not even fuckin' Siri knew |
| Pops was mad when I quit everything for this here |
| Driving home from practice, put the Land Cruiser in fifth gear |
| Yellin' at the boy like, «What the hell you really doing?» |
| Now we bullshit on the phone |
| He say, «I'm glad you showed and proved it» |
| So far from the old me, Uncle Sam gonna owe me |
| They all looked so surprised |
| When I said, «Rest in peace, Dobie» |
| Got my ear to the ground, I put my heart in the sound |
| I made a promise that I won’t follow others around |
| 'Cause following lead to death and they won’t lead me to me |
| I took my time with this shit |
| And now time ain’t coming for free |
| I made changes to make change with my A game |
| So if you ask me now, be prepared, 'cause I may say |
| So long to the old me, baby |
| You gon' get to know the new name |
| Shit was all good a week ago |
| But now things been gettin' so strange |
| Cause I’m so far, so far from the one you used to call me |
| I’m so far, so far from the man I used to try and be |
| So far from that backpack-wearing |
| Kid rapping that you’re used to |
| So close to that man named Aaron |
| That made a name that you can never leave out |
| And so much for holding back my story |
| So close to giving you the new me |
| So far from staying up late nights |
| Ever since I found my One Long Dream |
| And so I say |
| So long to the old me, baby |
| You gon' get to know the new name |
| Shit was all good a week ago |
| But now things been gettin' so strange |
| Cause I’m so far, so far from the one you used to call me |
| I’m so far, so far from the man I used to try and be |
