J Bandz - Better Days Lyrics

There was a time when I was alone
Nowhere to go and no place to call home
My only friend was the man I knew
Even sometimes he would go away

I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run, Captain Hook

He got hit and they know who sent him
If he reach, he get left on a stretcher
This Glock hold 30 in extension
But all the bullets Smith & Wesson

He got in that room and started confessing
I get in the room, I ain't even tempted
Your name in them papers, how you gon' say you ain't said it
Don't ever front your move and pay attention

I taught my own lessons as I lessened
I remember I came from the bottom
We was countin' change, we had dollars
Practicing principle, that's what got me farther

I was so slowly adapting, but shit just got harder
Told me the only way out is to get my money longer
We was prayin' for better days
But instead we was plottin' on base and makin' bigger plays

Why you ain't slide if you knew I'd stay
I be in and out all day, I know you see my face
If you run, you get chased, I ain't hard to find
That's about me, I pride in front of you, that's the way

36 Masons, all profits called patience
This shit I do not basic
He can't do what I do on a daily basis
Got the profit, I ain't have to make it

Roll me up a wood, I'ma just face it
I don't sell Remy, I fit for Henny as my chaser
Had to slow down now cause now I could've made it
Just think about all the time I wasted

Livin' dated, they gettin' faded
Play a hero, I'ma show you why they scared
I pulled on for my people, but you was never there
He said he high, I bought it, but he ran

He gon' get hit cause it's his mans
You don't know why he f*ckin', he get blammed
I ain't come to play, and these bullets always land
I can't leave without letting you know who I am

I don't forget shit, and I remember everything you said
Knowing resolutions, precise aim for the head
I don't know shit, and ain't nobody dead
Don't ask me no questions, cause I ain't never gonna fade

I said I don't know shit, and ain't nobody dead
We was prayin' for better days
But instead we was plottin' on base and makin' bigger plays
Why you ain't slide if you knew I'd stay

I be in there all day, I know you see my face
It's about me, I pry in front of your dad some weight
Ridin' my Uber, duckin' from the D's
Pull up the profits cause I quit the weed

But I'm still rollin' up these tobacco leaves
If he run, hawk him down, all out of beans
Blue, red, and green, they be his hate
They be lyin' through they teeth

Where was you at when I ain't nowhere to sleep
There was nothin' to eat
But I gave my last name against me
I don't really read deep, just mean like 50 rounds on the seat

500 more if he thinks you sweet
He can never walk a mile with the shoes on my feet
From evictions to toting that heat
To puttin' up rent so we had a place to sleep

To them long nights, all we did was starve cause we couldn't eat
If you wasn't there, how the f*ck you gon' say you know me
They say they rhyme for me
But who really gon' put their life on the line for me

When it's time to slide, he's gon' die for me
Don't say yes, then lie to me
He said he ain't made a statement
But I'm flippin' through the pages

I really did come from trappin' out the basement
14k gold and a bracelet
$400 kicks, he's not from Macy's
Designer drawers make him wanna taste it

Now I'm just duckin' and dodgin' them cases
I'm only goin' in, how will I stop
Got to the back, now I'm at the top
They be hatin', but I be on they block

They on our side, we out to the top
No, they not
Father Cole, I just might make you feel noth
I know we not hop on these tracks

F*ck, man, we finna get shot
Father Cole, I just might make you feel not
I know we not hop on these tracks
F*ck, man, we finna get shot
