The Person That I Was Before lyrics
by Lexa Gates
[Skit]
b*tch, ew, so when he told me that he was tryna, tryna me
(Yeah)
And he was like, "Oh, you like that?"
(Okay)
And I was like, "I f*cking love that," like, what?
(You're f*cking weird)
I love that sh*t
(You're f*cking weird, I deadass, I've been telling you this)
[Intro]
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
(No, no, no)
Uh, yeah
(To get the dough, dough, dough)
What?
(No, no, no)
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Everyone's annoying, I be chilling with my mom
If he try to f*ck with me, I slap him, I'm a dom
Never get no free time, I be spitting on the john
Me and all my people camе a long way from the lawn, and
[Refrain]
I just want some money so my fam could gеt a break
Feels like I'm taking too long, uh
[Verse 2]
This ain't the easy way
It's probably easier if I do what other people say
I kicked the cup so I can't even sip the pain away
I'm in the Lower if you wanted to pick up today
And he a grower not a show-er, I still couldn't stay
Realistically, just getting laid ain't gonna get me paid
Realistically, some people never loved you anyway
These dudes would rather f*ck their homies, they be f*cking—
Hey, ayo
[Chorus]
Sitting in the vehicle, I feel the wind blow
I'ma throw everything I know out the window
I don't wanna be the person that I was before
I don't wanna be the person that I was before
Sitting in the vehicle, I feel the wind blow
I'ma throw everything I know out the window
I don't wanna be the person that I was before
I don't wanna be the person that I was before
[Verse 3]
I'm not like other girls, I'm worse
I got a Smith and Wesson on the side of me in my purse
If he ain't feeling me, I leave him on his own with a curse
'Cause you ain't getting over me where I'ma be
This my turf, b*tch
I might be the best on this Earth
If no one else can see it, I still see it, I know my worth
Keep on throwing dirt on my name, I'ma grow through that dirt
If it's all or nothing, I'ma give my all 'til it hurts, awe
f*ck that sh*t
If you don't like me, honestly, yo, you could suck my di*k
I've been through way too much
At this point, I might bust that lip
If someone get to talking to me like our waves not split
I'm on another level, one that everyone won't get
Can't even waste my time explaining
It's aight bro, bet
Just get the f*ck away from me with that existential dread
You woke up and you rolled a blunt, but me, I made my bed, 'cause
[Refrain]
I just want some money so my fam could get a break
Feels like I'm taking too long
I just want some money so my fam could get a break
Feels like I'm taking too long
[Verse 4]
Dead water bugs, dust bunnies 'round everywhere
I get a kick running around just ruining sh*t
Boonk Gang everywhere I go, f*ck everything
Red paint stain on the glass
Giving up ass to someone who already got someone
Barely thinking 'bout me, I don't fear no one
Y'all don't know how to have fun
Don't point your finger at me, lil' ho, I'm the real one
You just living in a lie
I'll do everything that you're too scared to even try (Okay)
I fall down and don't cry (Ah)
I feel nothing sometimes, it's like I already died
[Outro]
(It's like I already died)
I don't wanna be the person that I was before
(It's like I already died)
I don't wanna be the person that I was before
I don't wanna be the person that I was before
R.I.P. to the person that I was before
