Only time will tell a tell or two bout love
Lately i feel like forever's not quite long enough
Already 23 and still workin on growin up
Leigh leigh turnin 3 my little babys growin up
Jay Jackson Verse
Things ain't really what they seem
Things ain't really what they seem
Fame ain't really what it seems
My pops still calls to say i should invest my time into better things
I dont call to keep in touch wuite like i should
My cousins text to check in if im good its been a minute since a n***a said i wish i could
Said i wish i could but i can't
Begin to judge casue i ain't in yo shoes all thes paid appearance and interviews
And every song sound like a f**in interlude
Excuse my french in my defense im trynna make it make sense
Swing for the fence
In 09 it started and it ain't been the same since
If you were the only one who believed would you still believe
I mean stevie stole our hearts and couldn't see the keys
I still pray to christ i still hate advice
And if it college dropout i still play it ktwice
A few things happen now i rap and what not
I did casue i love it not cause rappin whats hot
Mind over matter
What matters is the mind
Al these fake rappers scatter man the midwest is mine
A n***a double parked with two minues on the meeter
You ain't living out your dream than i wouldn't wanna be ya
Shout out to j. rob for th feature
You ain't liven out ya dreams then i wouldn't wanna be ya
All i really need is a feature from alilyah

Zack Bolden Verse
I'm 23 by this week's end
My mama had asked me
If 23 make's a new man
Replies silent like god is
Ponder it over Pasta - I never saw naked truth in a changed man
Guess the Value in a coined phrase - Kept in da pocket of DAT mans pants
Well time a tell a tale or two - Timeless tales and fables brew
Faded nights that knighted you - Became the man you wanted too
I'm the man I'm a man – Mama
I'm a man I'm the man – Mama
Getting bands Like a real man
22 made 33 legal grand, Mama
Ya Son became a father too soon
Dropped college – lied about it
Broken Promise – Like my father
Character's change – but plots refuse
I know you know I'm workin hard - You know I know my kids won't starve
Zo watch Callie go to School - Who knew not raising a fool was hard
The struggle – Is getting Zoë a** to stop cussin
The struggle – Is getting Callie sound home structure
Home is where yo heart is - Home is where my kids live
My kids live where my home sits - In my heart that's where my love is
I know love ain't quite enough
But maybe our dreams will be what fill us up
Something's better than having nothing at all
Something's good but I'm praying I'll have it all
Hands up like you know who I pray to
Hands up – You know who I pray to
Hands up – Know who I pray to
Hands in the air and I'll pray for you
