Ke Jack - Used to Be

I know I gotta past but my future looking bright as ever
It ain't gone rain forever you won't be in pain forever
And I was moving wrong to make it right I had to write this letter
Just keep yo head up my nigga it's gone get better my nigga
But ain never picked my battles hard body imma fight whatever
So when it's bad Ion see it how I used to see
To walk in my blessings I had to bury who I used to be

I got ways I'm trynna bury
A cross I'm trynna carry
And it be getting heavy
Ion be knowing if I'm ready I got old ways
And I got wounds still open from my childhood
So it be hard to stay focused keep my mind good
But making music keep me sane and they showing love but I'm so used to getting pain
And I'm just waiting for the rain but I made it through the rough
It take a lot for me to hurt and even more for me to trust
And when I lost I was dolo when I won it was us was at the bottom
But being at the bottom made me tough
It made me hard body
And since a baby I been hard body
They my problems til I pray and now they God problems
And what a feeling when you chilling knowing God got you
And through the mud he show you mercy and love
So no matter what you did via murder or you sold crack
You think you lost yo soul God can always get to soul back
It's Ke Jack

I know I got a past but my future looking bright as ever
It ain't gone rain forever you won't be in pain forever
And I was moving wrong to make it right I had to write this letter
Just keep yo up head up my nigga it's gone get better my nigga
But I ain't never picked my battles hard body Ima fight whatever
So when it's bad Ion see it how I use to see
To walk in my blessing I had to bury who I used to be

I had to bury who I use to be bury how I used to act
Cut some people close to me they was never good for Jack
And cause I rap everybody think they good with Jack
But Ion even hate love it just be the fake love
Cause people get to faking when they think you bout to make it
But back when this was basic they ain't want no conversation now they clocking me
They ain't supporting me but they watching me I'm watching them vibes give me secret Animosity and jealousy I'll never go off what they telling me
They want the best for them they don't really want the best for me
I'm trynna kill the old me to do it God testing me
And this a newer me so to the younger me it's Rest In Peace
I had to better me grow up be a better me
But right or wrong I'm on my brother side I'll never leave
And became a legend in my hood without no felonies
Was making a difference before I even made a melody

I know I got a past but my future looking bright as ever
It ain't gone rain forever you won't be in pain forever
I was moving wrong to make it right I had to write this letter
Just keep yo up head up my nigga it's gone get better my nigga
But ain never picked my battles hard body imma fight whatever
So when it's bad I don't see it how I use to see
To walk in my blessings I had to bury who I used to be
