LBJ - When I Was Lost (feat. BJ & Jasmine) Lyrics

When i get lost i gotta snap back to reality
And picture God telling me how could I better me
We cant rush this shit i got to let it come to me
We gone enjoy this ride take it nice and slowly
I was that troubled child always stayed in trouble
Hard headed always felt like I was running with the devil
I ain't tryna win no race
I ain't tryna win no medal
I battle myself everyday i think that is enough aye
They say the good die young but i ain't settle
Tic Toc watch the time keep moving
They say knowledge is key wealth is power
I cant keep getting paid by the hour
I've got to become my own boss become my own man
Make a plan then stick to the game plan
Watch it all fall in place like damn man
It's bout time I'm not a lost man
My soul is not for sale not for taken
Probably somewhere lost probably living with Satan
What you know about them dark nights hoping you make it
Pray the Devil dont attack and eat you up like a raisin
When I was lost and nowhere to be found
Searching looking out for freedom under the ground
I got so much space and no one around
I don't have no one to call when I'm lonely and down
Keep that same energy when I'm on and i make it
Mama told me that she love me and I'm gone be the greatest
Imma kill them all with kindness just add on the greatness
Keep God on my side and nobody can take it
I got a close tight grip of my own feelings
Seem like the streets and the church got the same meaning
It's like hanging up a jersey just for dry cleaning
It's like they love you but they hate you so i stop believing cause
As i look up to the sly man I'm asking God why
Mama said watch yo back and to watch the outside
I know things ain't the same all this pain in the inside
We gone get through these hard times it ain't gone be no moe denying
Yeah I'm getting older where did time fly
I miss my grandma so much why did she have to die
As i look up to the clouds yeah i feel her passing by
I close my eyes light the blunt and the i count to five
Let me gone head and tell ya'll a little story of mine
Cause back then i ain't really have my mama round at the time
When she stop using and got clean everything was fine
But I had to stand tall I had to keep on grinding
Through the hard times the rough times I felt like I dying
But I knew I was gone make it cause God was by my side
He told me leave my past alone my future is ready to shine
But I was stuck up in the dark and ready to commit crime
