Lately

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Okay lately

I been watching people get lost

And lately

People really don't know what they want

That's cause lately

People out here lying to themselves

So lately

Society got yo' soul on the shelf (some people need help)

Turn my back on society, seventeen

Cause they told me that I couldn't have a dream

But I got it, dropped out of college, mtv

Now I'm all over the world on yo screen

Now I'm front cover like girls on magazines

Now I'm chopped not slopped, shoutout og run c

Now I'm on the radio in seattle

Now I'm out in belgium, I don't even travel

Oooo what happened?

Okay lately

I been watching people get lost

And lately

People really don't know what they want

That's cause lately

People out here lying to themselves

So lately

Society got yo' soul on the shelf (some people need help)

I'm watchin' people give up

Contemplating suicide

Tryna' tell my people we much smarter when we unify

Tryna' move these units, out here livin' like it's do or die

We be on mtv, often dreams is self belief

Got my confidence, my self esteem is shootin' through the roof

Imma' stay inside my house, lock myself inside my booth

Got my gin, I got my juice

Got my family to balance me

I don't need no rules

Imma' boss, watch the world spin off

Okay lately

I been watching people get lost

And lately

People really don't know what they want

That's cause lately

People out here lying to themselves

So lately

Society got yo' soul on a shelf (some people need help)

Okay lately, I been on the block sellin' crazy

This nine to five job ain't gon' save me

I gotta' keep a glock for my safety

I almost fucked around and had a baby

Okay lately

I been watching people get lost

And lately

People really don't know what they want

That's cause lately

People out here lying to themselves

So lately

Society got yo' soul on the shelf (some people need help)
