G-Eazy - Charles Brown lyrics

[Jay Ant] Trying to know what the future holds But it ain't for you to know I treat my self like the usual But it ain't for you to know I fear and fear, never lose control But it ain't for you to know Tell myself like usual But it ain't for you to know [G-Eazy] Sometimes I gotta be dolo alone, just walk around Young Gerald, young Charlie Brown Some sh**'s better to keep to yourself than say aloud Some sh** you see and they don't, so I just jot it down It was written, had the vision as a youth that I would make it here one day A flight to the top, cop a one-way But looking out the window on subway 16, slapping Mac Dre Somehow I always knew it'd be that way I felt this so clear it's like a rode a time machine and I saw it I paint the picture and draw it, I fold it up in my wallet Keep it everywhere I go just as a reminder To myself every time I get discouraged or tired I got greatness inside of me I go against the greats until they tired of me I've heard it all, nothing surprises me See, I'm the one, I'm that anomaly But never mind me, I'll just be up over here k**ing 'em quietly You know? [Jay Ant] Trying to know what the future holds But it ain't for you to know I treat my self like the usual But it ain't for you to know I fear and fear, never lose control But it ain't for you to know Tell myself like usual But it ain't for you to know [G-Eazy] Yeah, and I heard 'em say Nothing's ever promised, tomorrow or today From the Bay E-40 & Dre Chasing dreams, it's the only way I said, I heard 'em say Nothing's ever promised, tomorrow or today From the Bay E-40 & Dre Chasing dreams, it's the only way [E-40] I'm still here, remembering these lyrics And when I'm dead and gone, I'll be there in spirit Don't let 'em run my name in the mud, don't let 'em smear it Just pour some Rossi out, go ahead and tear it One of a kind, no copy Tell your grandchildren's children 'bout me Tell 'em I was the illest Let 'em know I spit the realest Went from pennies and nickels to large amounts Kept it in the hood, where it counts Never was them, always was him Had to caught myself, time and time again Just when they thought it was it, he back with another hit We brought the Bay to the rest of the world (who was it?) E-40 & Young Gerald [Jay Ant] Trying to know what the future holds But it ain't for you to know I treat my self like the usual But it ain't for you to know I fear and fear, never lose control But it ain't for you to know Tell myself like usual But it ain't for you to know [G-Eazy] So where I go from here? I did the most you could possibly pack into a year Now I can either fall off and completely disappear Or, I can move up to the highest tier Conversations with Gerald, standing in front the mirror Ask myself like "f** the bullsh**, what you really fear?" We all want to be understood, hope they hear us clear But that sh** never happens everywhere So I just do me on my "f** the world" sh** I'm riding through the town listening to Earl's sh** Been trying to lift the Bay up, I could probably curl it I learn from the legends, they tell me "you're it" So I always maintain and try to stay sane But, just do you, give a f** what they say We artists are all alike, we feel the same pain You want the whole world? You want the same thing [Jay Ant] Trying to know what the future holds But it ain't for you to know I treat my self like the usual But it ain't for you to know I fear and fear, never lose control But it ain't for you to know Tell myself like usual But it ain't for you to know
