Used To Know

Enough for imposers

These rappers is jokers

Came through on some g shit don’t act like you know us

Same people around me

Same people that show love

See me break the rules still she play it cool

Switch!

Momentarily waiting for all these people to dig

They all lie in your ear, feed that shit to your kids

Going shopping is long, they just send me a look up

And put that call in to the brand, say I need some more kicks

Know that sounds arrogant but it’s the life that I live

Puttin’ work since I was nine I ain't guilty for shit

Fucked up [?]

Told ‘em bill as many as you want its not a thing

Coming straight from the underground and I'm runnin this shit

Said I don’t write my own lyrics man who told you that myth

You should choke on your words

Go and die of stupidity

If I choose to make a diss track man believe me you’re pissed

I'm a crazy introvert with a mind full of words I define grey sounds

And I go from zero to one hundred kilohertz real quick

Space age the greatest thing up in this universe

If you heard the fire from 20 you will definitely burn

I'm not the same person I used to know

In a good way

I'm not the same person I used to know

Go

Master mind, young masterin’ genius

I don’t believe in war but I believe in winning I mean it

Se I can be the deranged and I can be insane

[?]

Just let me write my rhymes in search for something I might never find

How the fuck can you tell me that this ain't what you needed

Put your ass back in line and listen up when I'm speaking

They be preaching that bullshit and still don’t know the meaning

Alien life I don’t really fuck with human beings

Homosapiens as a race we’re failing

Try and cover up all the messages you’re portraying

Socialites are lost and just tryna look for a way in

How can you ignore all this greatness that I'm displaying

How can you be sure that you’re what people are playing

Man I passed caring about what niggas are saying

Call up my lawyer and say these lables are corny

They should know what they’re doing from artists that came before me

Still they struggle to know how to handle young simz

'Cause I can't be handled, step in my space you get dismantled

This isn’t banter, this is that crowd—put your hands up

Thoughts are still distorted

I say always, man I've been zoning all day

I will not conform to what they want me to conform to

I was born alone I die alone

These thoughts are deranged sometimes I don’t care

You think I'm a human I think I'm an alien

Still I say

Everybody leave me the fuck alone!

I won't drown in my sorrow!

Everybody leave me the fuck alone!

Leave me alone

Leave me

I ain't the same person that I use to know
