Look Around Me lyrics - Joyner Lucas

Man I wish these hoes could see me now, things changed

I remember when I used to beg for change

I done came a long way from the block where these birds got their hands out

Remember lil me? Guess what, motherfucker? I'm the man now

She used to hang up on a nigga when I called, that was year 'round

Now the same bitch wanna give me good brains with her hair down

And that's funny, and my ex wanna call me, saying that she wanna have me

Talking 'bout "When we getting married?"

Bitch you need to find another pappy, and haters don't look too happy

Swear it's my fault, they done turned me to a monster

Fly ass truck, I'm a Tonka, and I ain't really into the drama

I'd rather get paid, period, no comma

Mind your damn business, homie what you saying?

I done came up, fuck is you talking 'bout? I'm just working

Fuck is you thinking? I got some hurt for the niggas

I got some pork for the bacon, if it ain't bones that I'm breaking

And I was born on probation, they pulled me over to take me

Inside the border, they drained me and cut me open and gave me

Some type of potion I'm craving, dammit, look what you made me

I'm just going

Look what I became from where they found me

I think you should take a look around me

I hear people saying things about me

I think you should take a look around me [x3]

I hear people saying things about me

But I think you should take a look around me

Man I wish these hoes could see me now, things changed

I remember when I used to beg for change, that was way back

Now I sit and wait while these niggas plotting payback

Success is on the way

Uhh, I done came a long way from the stoop where the fiends got their hands out

Remember lil old me? Guess what, motherfucker? I'm the man now

He used to run his mouth 'bout me all around the hood, it was man down

And now the same nigga want a fucking autograph, he a fan now

And that's funny, now my ex girl calling saying that she tryna see us

Talking 'bout "Where we gonna meet up?"

Bitch you need to find another re-up, and haters wanna see me get beat up

Yeah it's my fault, it done turned me to a psycho

Ass so fat she need lipo, and I ain't really into the titles

Rather get insurance on the pussy, no Geico

Mind your own business, homie what you saying?

I done came up, fuck is you talking 'bout? I'm just working

Fuck is you wishing, I got some dirt for the pigeons

I got some work for the business so write my words on the ceiling

Ho I'm hurting your feelings, they pulled me over, I went in

Inside the border to check in, they cut me open and gave me

Some type of potion or medicine, dammit look what you made me

I'm just going

Look what I became from where they found me

I think you should take a look around me

I hear people saying things about me

I think you should take a look around me [x3]

I hear people saying things about me

But I think you should take a look around me

I used to get mad when the hoes ain't flock

I used to get bullied by the whole damn block

Running from the boys, hope I don't get caught

Niggas had guns, hope I don't get shot

Lord, oh Lord can you answer my prayer?

Beautiful dreams and these weird nightmares

[?] with a pair of Nike Airs

I'm just tryna get a buzz, I'm the real light year

Ho point me to the door, I'm catching my breath

Blood on my blood, and flesh on my flesh

My heart might stop but I'll stretch you out, yes

Machiavelli and Pac, resurrecting my death

And I'm back as a hologram, Jesus must be inside of him

What you riding in? Wanna talk about ice and Beamers?

Get your shit broke like Ike and Tina

I was born on the seventeenth day

Along came Joyner, in Heaven we pray

Born by the pussy I'll die by the pussy

That just means that I could never be gay

Take a look around me, me, you floss too much

And talk about how you just a boss too much

I swear I love winning cause I lost too much

I wanted Drake on the hook but he cost too much

Fuck I look like lying then? I'm a pyro's pirate

Set the hood on fire, hit the hydrants

Guess I'm just a product of my environment

And that's word, flashbacks to my teacher in class

Telling me she hope that I don't finish high school

All I know is I came a long way

And I'll be God damned if I ever stop soon

Look what I became from where they found me

I think you should take a look around me

I hear people saying things about me

I think you should take a look around me [x3]

I hear people saying things about me

But I think you should take a look around me
