In this life I’ve been scarred
So I walk around here with my guard up
And they quick to say lil nunny trippin
I think about my past and get in my feelings
I think about the people who deserve me
I think about the ones who didn’t deserve me (okay)
Think about the ones who did me dirty, (okay)
I won’t let you close enough to hurt me
And I been staying to myself, I been moving lowkey
‘Cause I don’t know you and nigga you don’t know me
I don’t need no new homeboys, nigga I’m straight
You can keep yo handshakes, these nigga snakes, I’ll play it safe
Sometimes I wish baker understand, (okay)
That I am not yo average man (okay)
Ain’t insecure, I’m just hurting, trying to find out is you worth it
Opening up make me worry and new faces make me nervous
Like where these nigga was when we was slidin’ in my acura
Now they wanna pop up because them Rs in the back of us
And we be state to state, promoters always got them racks for us
New nigga come ’round and I disappear like perry the platypus
In this life I’ve been scarred
So I walk around here with my guard up
And they quick to say lil nunny trippin
I think about my past and get in my feelings
I think about the people who deserve me
I think about the ones who didn’t deserve me (okay)
Think about the ones who did me dirty (okay)
I won’t let you close enough to hurt me
