Bryson Tiller - A N N I V E R S A R Y Album Lyrics

---

Years Go By

With what the young generation's doin'
And I'm like, "Yo, man, you really just got to do this shit", like
Worryin' about or tryna figure out what they need, or if they gon' like it or not
Aww man, you gon' have about five years go by
Next thing you know, you ain't gon' wanna do this shit no more
But you really just gotta do you

Yeah
Goin' by
Goin', goin' (yeah), gone, gone, gone, gone
Goin' by
Goin', goin' (yeah), gone, gone, gone, gone
Yeah, yeah (aw, yeah), oh, yeah
Goin' by

Go!

Years go by, where we at right now?
Though we, might be able to relax right now (now)
Pressure on me whenever I'm flatlined down
I can't keep 'em on my back right now (uh)
The game called me and said, "Come back right now" (right now)
Put the fire on the f*ckin' wax right now, yeah (right now)
She want all the eggs in one batch right now, but (right, right now)
I can't risk that right now, no
City on fire, that's 'cause of me and Jack, huh (me and Jack)
Fifty deuce got the city loose, goin' platinum (goin' platinum)
Spit the truth in the booth, give it to the fandom (fandom)
Listen boo, I gotta make these anthems
Any who, she went ghost on me, Danny Phantom (Danny Phantom)
Single ladies, romance 'em (romance 'em)
Hold me baby, no ransom
Don't be crazy, throwin' tantrums

(Yeah)
Know me crazy
Know me crazy (baby, baby)
Yeah (oh)
Years go by (yeah)
Years go by (yeah, oh, yeah)
Years go by
Listen up (goin' by)
Huh

Yeah, show tonight, hold tight, won't you let go tonight
Baby, get closer right, it was meant for you (yeah)
Heard it right, bitches ain't sittin' in for you (no)
Certified, bonafide, genuine for you, that's (that's real-real)
That's a f*ckin synonym for you
Givenchy, you like em? I'll send 'em in for you (I'll send 'em in)
Split it with a nigga, got the dividends for you
You down with it, wood brown, cinnamon for you
Yeah, you don't live for this life, girl, I know (I know)
But this is the life I know (yeah, yeah, right)
Yes, it took a little time
Just to grown a nigga, but I've grown since then
And I promise, we gon' keep it solid
Keep away all the monsters (monsters)
F*ck this nonsense, no dividin', we conquer
It's that anniversary
Sing that shit like Tony, sing this chorus and this verse for me
Bae it's Gawdtilla

Where it go?
F*ck this time go? (Years go by)
Goin', goin', gone, gone, gone (years go by)
Go!

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

Always Forever

I'm just thinkin'
We started talkin' like two years ago, three years ago
Four years ago, somethin' like that
Uh, it's tough, you know, somethin' like that

Uh huh
Yeah, you know I tried to stop
Yeah, you know I tried
I tried to give you a little less of my time
Starting to feel like I'm never in my right mind
In my right mind (in my right mind)
Is it the right time, babe? (Is it the right time, babe?)
See you in the nighttime, babe
It's nighttime
Wish you had feelings like mine
But it feels like I'm still just a homie (homie)
Acting like you don't want me, yeah (why is that?)
No, shorty just don't do it for me
You do it for me, yeah

Say you done doing it for me, then say bye
Say bye (say bye, bye, bye)
Say-say now, girl say bye (bye, bye)
Say now, say goodbye, say goodbye

You know I tried, I really tried
Now you're right back on my mind
I feel the time just tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, passin' by
Thought this was always forever so I'm actin' wild
Would you lie to me babe?
No, that ain't right to me babe
You know I was here to stay
Ain't really got much left to say, please

Say you done doing it for me, then say bye
Say bye (say bye, bye, bye, gotta want me)
Say-say now, girl say bye (just leave me)
Say now, say goodbye, say goodbye (memories)

Overloaded
On all the memories and all the moments, yeah
When I look back to them it's hard to focus
I like to imagine the time being frozen
Oh, don't tell no lies, you wasn't mine
But hit my line up
Why? 'Cause you was tired of somebody
I won't say his name
I'm simply trying to forget everything
Since you don't remember anything

---

Things Change

You'll say
You'll say, "Don't you wanna change me?"
Hey (hey)
Ayy, mm
Doin' too much
Hey
Too much for me to miss you
Knowin' I done changed
Oh, yeah

Maybe callin' you up would fix things right now
Are you listenin' right now, are you listenin'?
Repeat, replay this just to make sure you don't miss things
See I know, see I know how much you miss me, you miss me but

Things now are so different, you should see me now, I'm so different
I know you like to say I went distant, but
I went to woman from women
How could you say you missed him?
I gave you like ten percent, I
I, I, I shorted you
Hate my guts, of course you do
Had you twisted like contortion, you
Bent over like backwards for me
Shawty, you had me spoiled too
Love you ma, you know I do
Then how the f*ck I choose her over you?
How?

Hahaha, I could tell you how though
I could tell you
You gon' let me talk though or you just gonna keep

She like, "How could you leave?"
Let things be done
Find you someone
Miss the way you love me
Don't call me for once
Swear you're no fun
You was lovin' him too
But you swear you're the one

Girl, you know I can't settle for it, try to tell myself I don't need that (need that)
Yeah, I know that you classy, but you a freak too, I gotta see that (gotta see that)
No, I never get one time, I need two times, repeat that (repeat)
No, I never go too deep, I get lost in it, won't be back
She would never get me back, it's a evident relapse
I been sober for too long, I'm done forever, I mean that
Shit done had me two drinks that got me open, now I gotta speak facts
In too deep, gotta evac, and I don't know where you lost me at
But let's recap, ah! (Yeah)

Things now are so different, you should see me now, I'm so different
I know you like to say I went distant, but
Went to woman from women
How could you say you missed him?
I gave you like ten percent, I
I, I, I shorted you
Hate my guts, of course you do
Had you twisted like contortion, you
Bent over like backwards for me
Shawty, you had me spoiled too
Love you ma, you know I do
How'd I choose her over you?

I could tell you how
Let's talk
Since you want closure
I can do that, ayy

I see you hurt, I see you cry
You see DC in my eyes
You hit DC for a drive
Threw my CD out the-
See you playin' wit' me now
I'm sayin' honey I'm so eager now
When I'm thinkin' it's best if we sit down
See tell me, how does this weekend sound?
And you'll see me 'round, see me out
With a new thing, she CC'd out
You like, "Come on B, that ain't even your style"
"Come home B, let me see these hoes out"
"Let me show 'em the ex"
"Sit down hoe, let 'em know I'm the best"
Face so cold, always go for they necks
Girl you so bold, too bold with a text, girl you over the edge
Over the sex, I know it's for the best
I don't wanna text, I don't wanna chat
Stole your heart, think I won't give it back
Girl, trust me this shit been holdin' me back, you can have this shit

Nah, for real, you can have this shit
'Cause you ain't slowin' me down anyway

Timeless Interlude

(You gotta trust me)

Yeah
That's right, I'ma be okay
They be like, "Do the task right, don't make no mistakes"
They negated what I sacrificed, think I live a flashy life?
But really life is flashin' by
Twenty-two, go get it now
Twenty-seven, hold it down
I got several homies now, but still I keep my bro around
Crazy we both older now, babies, no, they older now
Plus, I know they count on us to lend more than a shoulder
This world is growin' colder
But I swear they never get the cold shoulder
Sand drippin', should I flip it over?
Skimmin' through this picture folder
Wishin' I could live it over
But you wiser when you gettin' old
Normally, I'm closed off but just for this specific song
I might try to let them in, save lustin' for a different song, but

(Baby, you gotta trust me)

That's right, we gon' be okay
You know I'm gon' do that task right, I'm gon' make mistakes
But don't you forget what I sacrificed, think I live a flashy life?
But I ain't never had this life
And I'm talkin' about this rapper life
Them flashin' lights and catchin' flights on PJ's, crazy, right?
But if I gave this life to who I was, on God, I would hate my life
And if Jesus take my life?
At least I made it to the greatest heights
He said, "Look, son, don't be afraid of the heights and don't take prayer light
Keep me close and watch me change your life
Maybe go take a risk, maybe that'll make the whole situation flip"
That's true, but even if things don't end up cool
At least I know I can

(I can trust in you)

Sincerely, um
(I trust in you)
Affectionately
Bryson

Sorrows

Yeah, oh yeah, ayy, yeah
Yeah (yeah), ayy-ayy, ayy, yeah
Yeah, yeah, ayy-ayy
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Yeah

When I'm lonely, baby
It's like my friends don't know me
Girl that used to be my homie (my homie)
Left me with a dream she sold me (dream she sold me, yeah)
Even the dreams get lonely
Left me here at three in the mornin'
Questionin' all the things you told me (told me)
Yeah, ayy, ayy

Baby, it got lost in the heat of the moment
Baby, if you mean it, show it
And if you ever need it or want it, I got you, you know this
And if you ever home alone and need a little company, I'll swing right over
Baby, I'll be right over
Invite me right over, over, over

I said I know we ain't on the same page no more
And that's a shame that we ain't, when we used to be so close
Yes, I'm down and I'm drownin' in my sorrows, babe (baby, yeah)
Yeah, yeah

You don't miss me, babe
Don't know why you're tryin' to convince me, babe
Know there's been somebody else since me, babe
Think I might do the same, don't tempt me, baby
Hit the party and get friendly
Honestly, no, I don't got it in me
It's no fun when you're not here with me
It's no wonder you're not here with me, yeah
Yet you tell me there's no way
Yes, you tell me there's no way, way, way (yeah, yeah)
She's like, "How you figure?"
Girl, I seen you around here with him
Trust me, I heard a lot about him
Tell me where you found him
He won't get around you, no, I won't allow it, no (nuh-uh)
Guess it's over now, if you think I don't know by now
Can we slow it down and sort it out now?

You got lost in the heat of the moment
Baby, if you mean it, show it
And if you ever need it or want it, I got you, you know this
And if you ever home alone and you need a little company, I'll swing right over
Baby, I'll be right, yeah

Seen what I said right?
Heard what I said right?
I'm a boss and you see it, right?
You took a loss and you see it, right?
We could stop, we could rewind
Would you call in the meantime?
(Ain't no problem, we'll be fine
Would you come with me tonight?
All the stories we could rewrite
That's a lie, what it seems like
You know you talkin' to me, right?
You could tell me anything, right?
Yeah, you always got a green light
Yeah, you always, always, always, always, always"

Told me "Get well," did you mean that? 'Cause I can't tell
I ain't feelin' well, kept it and then my tears fell (mmh)
Yes, I spent all these f*ckin' years dwellin', yes, I feel irrelevant
And in this room, it's you, me and this elephant

She think I'm movin' shaky
(No tellin' when she comin' forward)
Baby girl, I miss when you adored me (yeah)

Outta Time

I've been thinkin' maybe
Things were never the
Way we made 'em out to be
How we thought they were
Lately, I'm not sure
One thing for sure
Is when we're together
We're toxic as ever
Make no mistake, all the roads lead
To we shouldn't be together

I don't know why I
Still play into your palm
Even though I know what you want
Been twisted off you so long, oh-ho
'Cause it's complicated, far from simple
Always find a way to dodge these issues
Can't seem to shake it, not for nothin'
The problem is we're not discussin'
All that screamin', yellin's not becomin' of you
Things just can't be fixed, we're out of time

Time, oh yeah
Oh yeah (oh yeah)
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah (yeah), yeah

Oh, sometimes, I don't
Know, know you, no, not anymore, no
And I can't wait 'til we find a way to part ways
Seems like your days are dark days
Seems like you're mad at the small things, I
Admit, it seems like you're playin' it the hard way
We fight through the night, all day

I, I still don't know why I
Still play into your palm
Even though I know what you want
I've been twisted on you for so long
For so long, girl (yeah, yeah)
Yeah, got me twisted, I could only wait for so long
For so long, girl (for so long)
Waited so long, but we got no time, no (ooh)

Ooh, babe
Yeah, oh
Woah, oh no

Ooh, baby
Yeah, oh
Woah, oh no

Keep Doing What You're Doing

"Well, son, I hope you enjoy your birthday
And you have a blessed one
And I love you
From the bottom of my heart, Mamaw"

I wish I believed
I wish I believed when you
Told me you believed in me
I wish I could see in me what you seen
When we talked last, you just told me two thin's, said
I love you

And no matter what, keep doin' what you doin'
Keep doin' what you doin'
Whatever you doin'
Keep doin' it
You gotta keep it movin'
Gotta keep it movin', yeah
Do what you do, yeah
Keep doin' what you doin'

And when I found it hard at times to be myself
Not me, just me and myself
Myself, myself

Out there doin' what I'm (wait)
Doin' what I'm doin'
I think that's what got me here
I gave it my best and that's exactly why I'm here
Hated how it felt to be in debt, to bein' failed 'til I did somethin'
Self-reflectin', thinkin' 'bout the testaments and wisdom
Make sure you got a will, there's a way when there is one
Keep doin' what you doin', go do what's already been done
I know you got it in you

Yeah, yeah, baby, I
Yes, I know you got it in you (yeah, yeah)
Yes, I know you got it in you, oh (yeah)
Oh, oh, oh (baby, I)

Oh

Next to You

How far out have I got to move?
Oh, I've gotta get next to you (look)
But you're so far away (oh, I did, I did)
Searchin' for a heart another world away (I should probably say a couple words)
How far out have I got to move? (Oh)
Oh, I've gotta get next to you
But you're so far away (oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Searchin' for a heart another world away (just listen)

I'm still waitin' here, how soon can you make it here?
Hope that you will make it clear
Hate when you're away from here
Said I hate when you're away from here
So far away, countin' the days, until you get here
Wait until you get here
Yes, you've been missed baby
But it's fine, I'm okay

Searchin' for a heart another world away (oh, ooh, woah, ooh)
(How far out have I got to move?)
Oh, yeah (oh, I've gotta get next to you)
But you're so far away
Searchin' for a heart another world away

Yeah, yes I'd wait up for you
I don't mean to rush you
But the rush I get touchin' you is
Somethin' else, baby, and lovin' you is (lovin' you is intoxicatin')
Ayy, thank God I found you
Just be around you, and I
You're tired of doin' this, baby
But it's fine, I'm okay
How much longer could it really take?

Oh no (how far out have I got to move?)
Yeah, uh (oh, I've gotta get next to you) yes, I gotta get next to you
(But you're so far away) yes, I gotta get next to you
(Searchin' for a heart another world away)
Oh, (How far out have I got to move?)
(Oh, I've gotta get next to you) You take my love for granted, baby
(But you're so far away) leave them alive then stranded
(Searchin' for a heart another world away) oh, ooh woah, ooh
(How far out have I got to move?) yeah
(Oh, I've gotta get next to you) yes, I hope you make time
(But you're so far away) baby, make time
(Searchin' for a heart another world away)
(You're all I) oh, woah, ooh

Said I hope you make time
Baby, make time
(You're all I)
