Been Around歌词

[00:12.44]When you, when you was in Chicago still
[00:16.09]Did you find yourself like as a lost boy?
[00:18.31]Yep, mmh
[00:19.63]No mother
[00:29.21]I think I could do better, but I still
[00:35.99]I want this forever
[00:39.26]Uh, sometimes life's about the people you know
[00:43.25]Watchin' a flower bloom as its features will grow
[00:46.66]I mean, I never been one to preach to them folks
[00:50.01]I'm just speakin' from experience, my teachings is ****
[00:53.46]Learning lessons with my brethren, joy is quite contagious
[00:56.81]Counting blessings on blessings, my heart right to make it
[01:00.08]And it's kinda my only option, maybe my decisions
[01:03.46]Haven't really been the best, but this my life I'm livin'
[01:06.88]Although it seem so bittersweet when you ain't got nothing to eat
[01:10.36]And Sallie Mae callin' your phone for like the fifth time this week
[01:13.86]All your bills overdue, all your ******* over you
[01:17.09]Only one option remains, you just gotta show and prove
[01:20.71]And so I know, little darling
[01:23.22]I know how the pain, it hurts
[01:27.25]Say something to me sweetie
[01:30.34]We'll get through, we'll make it work
[01:33.52]'Cause I've been around
[01:36.19]And you've caught me down bad, I say
[01:40.15]Next time in town
[01:43.34]You're always welcome 'round my way
[01:47.00]Uh, so take risks and live spontaneous, I'm so insane
[01:50.75]But that's the **** that make me rich and why we love the game
[01:54.20]And to my various enemies who carrying energy
[01:58.00]Of greed and envy, just know I love you for centuries
[02:01.57]So all is forgiven, animosity for none
[02:04.66]'Cause I done been through a lot, thankful who I have become
[02:08.02]I done lost a couple brothers, dead cousins on the regular
[02:11.54]But I ain't even stressing,
[02:13.19]Count my blessings, know we headed up
[02:15.23]I dropped out of school, pops thinkin' I'm a fool
[02:18.09]It may seem all cool, but I'm feelin' awful
[02:21.43]I was down in the dumps with my confidence gone
[02:24.67]But then my whole life changed, droppin' prominent songs
[02:28.20]And so I know, little darling
[02:30.84]I know how the pain, it hurts
[02:34.23]Say something to me sweetie
[02:37.80]We'll get through, we'll make it work
[02:41.11]'Cause I've been around
[02:44.03]And you've caught me down bad, I say
[02:47.67]Next time in town
[02:50.77]You're always welcome 'round my way
[02:54.61]
