Yesterday when we were getting high, you were invited.
You would've liked it. 
I-I know you all too well.
I said that we could kiss the past goodbye, 
But you weren't excited, there's no way to fight it.
You can stay but shawty here I go

Uh, should I spend the weekend in Vegas? 
I'm living inside a moment, not taking pictures to save it. 
I mean, how could I forget? My memories never faded.
I can't relate to these haters, my enemies never made it. 
I am, still here with who I started with.
The game needed life, I put my heart in it.
I blew myself up, I'm on some martyr shit. 
Carried the weight for my city like a cargo ship.
Uh. I'm 23, with a money tree.
Growing more too, I just planted a hundred seeds.
It's ironic, 'cause my mother was a florist,
And that's how she met my pops and now my garden is enormous.
It's happening Penny Lane, just like you said.
I avoided the Coke game, and went with Sprite instead.
Uh huh, that's word to the millions that they putting up.
I'm trying to do better than good enough.

[Chorus]
What am I afraid of? This is suppose to be what dreams are made of.
But people I don't have the time to hang with, 
Always look at me and say the same s*** (they say)
You promised me you would never change.
You promised me you would never change. 

Uh. 
Am I wrong for making light of my situation? Clap on.
When 40 got some shit for me to snap on.
Now that I'm on, I don't really want to worry about getting back on.
I'm just trying to stay on, get my f****** buffet on.
I heard they just moved my grandmother to a nursing home.
And I be acting like I don't know how to work a phone.
But hit redial you see that I just called, some chick I met at the mall,
That I barley know at all and,
Plus this woman that I messed with unprotected
Texting saying that she wish she would've kept it.
The one that I'm laying next to just looked over and read it.
Man I couldn't tell you where the f*ck my head is, 
I'm holding on by a thread it's,
Like I'm high right now, the guy right now,
And you can tell by looking in my eyes right now.
That nothing really comes as a surprise right now,
'Cause we just having the time of our lives right now.

[Chorus]

Well all right. 
Uh, I live by some advices, girl Lisa told me.
The other day, Lisa told that she missed the old me.
Which made me question when I went missing.
And when I start treating my friends different.
Maybe it was the fast paced switch up.
Or the two guns in my face during the stick up.
Maybe cause the girl I thought I trusted was who set the whole s*** up.
Or the fact I haven't seen em since they locked Big Rich up.
I know, at the same time I'm quick to forget.
I'm bout to roll me up a blunt with my list of regrets. 
Burn it all, burn it all, I'm starting it fresh.
Cause half the time I got it right I probably guessed.
Did I just trade free time for camera time?
Will I blow all of this money baby, Hammer Time?
I just need some closure. 
Ain't no turning back for me I'm in till it's over.
