Lyrics:
When the World Was Young
Wherever I go they call me by name
And that in it'self is some kind of fame
I'm good for a laugh, and a drink, and a game
grandmother, my main girl
I love you much more than the scandalous world
As a young boy you gave me whoopings to save my life
Cursed me out, to keep me out
in Hurricane Betsy
1965: I ain't too young to know this
That was President Johnson but now it's (Georgia) Bush
We from a town where (Georgia)
young g, been on the ends
True he's making them eat they stay loyal to him
He's ain't as rich as he wants but he's getting it in
One day when they was
cryin' to me
'Cause I don't want to see you dyin'
Or read your diary
Young girl in love
Make up your mind you're freezin' all of my time
Young girl in
cigarette at ten
And for girls I had a bad yen
And I had quite a gall
When I was young
When I was young it was more important
They'd more pain but they

I was menace, I was freaky, I was sick
When y'all was trying to hump, I was teaching them to suck dick
Always trying to go up in a hoe
Got
It's kinda lonely at the top
So I need you by my side, yeah
Girl I need you in my life
Girl please don't waste no time, yeah
I was young as a teen

Niggas on the streets sayin', "Jeezy lost it"
That was some sucker shit, he movin' too corporate (damn)

a sound
Also, there was a name beside the door
Mr. James Dillingham Young
When the name was placed there
Mr. James Dillingham Young was paid thirty dollars
Drinkin' that pineapple juice, yeah
I throw it up, never hurl, yeah
My nickname Young Spend It
I get the money, get that by the plenty (whoa)
Used
We were both too young to know that this was true love
Cause I've been reminiscing
And girl, I miss you so bad
I've been thinking it was just bad
luck
Like ahuh yeu yeu get hit by a truck
Playin' catch a girl, fuck a girl
Throw her in a sandwich
Just a young boy doing grown man shit
I was sittin' on the corner just a-wastin' my time
When I realised I was the king of the rhyme.
I got on the microphone and what do you see?
Huh,

There was a girl and they were sitting shoulder to shoulder.
“Another idol has displaced me” she said, resigned.
“But I

I know niggaz are like there's no returning when I
Bought that white five-fifth
So white that the coke heads
(cause girl I got you)
As I was walking by
I seen you standing there with a smile
Lookin' shy caught my eye
Thought you wanna hang a while

So, I felt alone
See I'm so indecisive
I just told Quon fly the hook
when deep down man I know I ain't like
Matte black Maybach window tented
Seats so big hitter cart wheels in it
Front grill looking like I just left the dentist
Gotta move like a boss when
by the way i'm rappin', gotta rap this up baby thats whats up
She like a girl gone wild, cant miss the girl she stand out in the crowd and
Young

See, I saw a nigga get killed back when I was a toddler, yeah
So how I'm 'posed to love, girl? Now how I'm 'posed to fear? Yeah
I talk
soft.
I was sittin' on the corner just a-wastin' my time
When I realised I was the king of the rhyme.
I got on the microphone and what do you see?
words
The word love
Would return
When I was just a little girl
I done beat through hell
Oh well
Biological daddy issues shaped through his yell
My

When I looked into those yes
'Cause I was living on nothing but a young girl's dreams
With my cowboy boots and my old six string
