lyrics

Back in the day
You hid your intentions away
But I always knew
You hated anyone who ever outdid you.
Now we’re all best friends
Till someone ascends
To heights that you, never really thought they ought to.

You blame your failures on bad luck
But the truth is, all the things you’ve ever done were for false reasons and

Now don’t hate
Just because it’s too late.
Your rise to fame has never come, you’re all done.
Your pathetic crew, has all abandoned you, you’re not fooling anyone.

Twelve years ago
Your big ego
It could intimidate
But nowadays your shit just seems third rate.
Your insecurities
Are now so plain to me
They’ve brought you to your knees
But that won’t buy you any sympathy.

You blame your failures on bad luck
But the truth is, all the things you’ve ever done were for false reasons and

Now don’t hate
Just because it’s too late.
Your rise to fame has never come, you’re all done.
Your pathetic crew, has all abandoned you, you’re not fooling anyone.

I know when you hear this shit, you’re gonna try and diss it
But just remember that you never could do, never could do this.
