Back to Basics lyrics

[Intro]
I'm Working on Dying
Yeah, yeah, woo
Yeah, yeah, woo
Yeah, yeah, woo
Ayy, yeah
Yeah, let’s go, b*tch

[Chorus]
Let's take it back to basics
Before I was that n*gga who was on your playlist
Before I was that n*gga they know not to play with
Back when I was only paper chasing
Back when I was in the room adjacent
I wanted to be in the room where it happened
I wanted to be in the room so bad
But now won't you look at me
Take up like a couple seats
They can’t help but to notice me
They can't help but to bе in their feelings

[Verse]
Who am I to blame them?
If I was you thеn I would hate me too
Who would've thought a Carti clone could go and make these moves?
If I was you and you was me you couldn't fit these views
You couldn't see these views
Differences between us finally become apparent
Never f*cking raw, but somehow I became a parent
To all these little n*ggas who wan' copy what I'm wearing
I swear that sh*t so weird to me, but still Dad loves you
I got the industry going bat sh*t they lack this a real star like Patrick
Hungry for my signature they been fasting
Like who gon' sign xG fastest?
Who I bring on to my team is ecstatic
They know I’m gon take them higher than attics and then some
With my weak hand, I could take your career for ransom
And I won’t give it back neither
Getting ahead of myself
Put the braggadocious raps back on the shelf
[Chorus]
So we can take it right back to basics
Before I was that n*gga who was on your playlist
Before I was that n*gga they know not to play with
Back when I was only paper chasing
Back when I was in the room adjacent
I wanted to be in the room where it happened
I wanted to be in the room so bad
But now won't you look at me
Take up like a couple seats
They can’t help but to notice me
They can't help but to be in their feelings
