Tyler Thomas - Lincoln Ave lyrics

[Intro] We gonna take a trip right now Like we always do about that time [Verse 1: Tyler Thomas] Head nod to my old sh**, I really didn't know sh** Thought I was on some pro sh** That I always had to talk about poor sh** I was tryna reach a crowd that ain't have sh** But the situation kept a n***a stagnant All my new sh** sounding like my last sh** How the hell a n***a finna make a smash hit? Fast forward like 8 months When I put the weed down no grape blunt I still miss the little way that it stick to you And when you quit its like the smell still get to you So I- I took a little time, had to find me And finally the n***as that's behind me I couldn't hang with them n***as on a crime spree Lincoln Ave you n***as know where to find me Had a talk with my mans bout the whole thing Just a matter of time until my phone rings Had game but I never had no team Had ties but I never had no string I been married to the game still no ring She been cheatin on a n***a still no flings Every fly n***a gotta get his own wings But I still don't understand what no means [Verse 2: Tyler Thomas] My new life better than my old life Cause my old life didn't seem so right How could I be so young and be so bright But my dreams had width still no height And things don't change but the vision do Im intricate with sentences I give to you Im pickier with people that I listen to Particularly n***as who ain't winning boo Now I make sure everything I make more That's really what I had to take a break for I didn't have direction but a great core I was scratchin' at the surface couldn't break floor Its so easy to get sidetracked listening to my tracks n***as talk through it I despise that How could I get mad when I do the same thing Its my job to keep you in my mood swings And I don't give a f** about anything else but us right now I've been workin like a slave And I'm feeling like I'm right on the cusp right now I'm at a good pace and I really can't afford to be rushed right now We see these other n***as getting signed but we gotta do us right now
