Times Like This Lyrics by Rashaann

This the type of sh#t you gotta play
When it’s real late at night, you cruising around
And the beautiful bright lights of the city illuminating the way for you
’cause you know when i started writing this

I was riding down sukhumvit
My n#gg# jordan, he talking ’bout
Ay, what’s next on the itinerary?
Oh yeah, são paulo

Lately i been living the life that i dreamed of
Back when i was a youngin’ and ain’t seen much
When a n#gg# was qualifying for free lunch
And everyone in the hood just ain’t dream much

Close-minded, just finding a reason
To have to flee the scene when the police come
And i ain’t fit in, i knew that i was differеnt
And there’s a bigger world bеyond section 8 leasing

So now i’m living it, first hand experience
Who thought a n#gg# would make plans to see switzerland?
Just couldn’t put myself in predicaments
As a black man to fail the government experiment

The sh#t is like insulin, proving n#gg#s wrong
Even numbers count me out, boy i’m still beating odds
They control your every move, n#gg#s better stay in line
But i move in all directions, i ain’t never been a pawn

I’m kinda like a king
But if i take an l, then when the night comes
I’m in this b#tch up tryna figure how to end the cycle
Long as that heart is beating in my chest

Then i gotta manifest living life like it’s
Paradise hundred percent of the time
And then they’ll say you can’t have that in life
But f#ck your blueprint, that’s my design

Before i get it, if i want it, best believe that it’s mine, n#gg#
sh#t a n#gg# over here spazzing on these four-on-the-floor house beats and sh#t
Ain’t a damn changed though
Listen

Times like this, i used to pray for it
This sh#t feel like a dream
Told myself i couldn’t wait for it
Go after everything

Now i’m out sightseeing, believe me
I wouldn’t trade this for any reason
Now all my n#gg#s getting paid more
And that’s a sight to see

Thinking of the days when i used to play the background
A 180 from the place you see me at now
A shy n#gg#, now i’m making iller noise
Back then ya boy was silent, told myself i gotta act now

Years passed, i got my confidence up
Touch a lil money now my dollars is up
Go a lil harder and that’s only because
Any numerical amount is never enough

’til i can do what i want, when i want
Where i want, how i want, et cetera
It’s things i need, things to see
People to feed, see ’em succeed

It’s nothing better, uh
Too competitive, who can compare to him?
No n#gg# is better than, f#ck your comparisons
Years passed, taking notes from the veterans

And came into my own, you’d be a fool to bet against
But listen dude, got sh#t to do
Another layover in istanbul
’cause i was in the mood to switch the view

Now a n#gg# problems seem minuscule
And as we move right along on this world tour i
Just gotta keep some fine #ss women as my tour guide
No agency, so basically this came for free with more time

To get unprofessional right up until the sunrise
It’s funny hearing sh#t these rappers brag about
’cause we been living that life
Been living outright, a n#gg# been that guy

Just being myself, ain’t depend on money or no rap hype
So don’t act like, material defines who i am
I know me well now, won’t lose myself when it’s time
But i’ll take some simple sh#t, then make it luxury

The maxima, i whip that b#tch like un huracán
This max’ll do anything that a lambo will
So with all this green bae, how that lambo feel?
That’s a f#cking joke, i ain’t yet got bills

But this charisma have her thinking, “he at least got mills”
He at least got mills
Have her thinking he at least got mills
Right

Times like this, i used to pray for it
This sh#t feel like a dream
Told myself i couldn’t wait for it
Go after everything

Now i’m out sightseeing, believe me
I wouldn’t trade this for any reason
Now all my n#gg#s getting paid more
And that’s a sight to see
