Narrowgate - Not Me

Man who woulda thought a single picture would've triggered this?
Had to earn my stripes like Tigger, it's
Not like I'm blowin' smoke or lighting up a bunch of cigarettes
I'm just stringin' it together like a bunch of paper clips
Water was dropping and that's the Truth
"Books equal power", copyright the sister of Ruth
Man, I'm so good, but I sure wasn't then
Cause I hadn't even started, this is where it all began
We had to start over, but we'll get to that
Man I heard All I Have, and then I began to rap
Abby Harvey, yeah she's the OG
Told me "Listen to Nate" and then I started writing schemes
And they were pretty bad, but I grew
With photography too, hashtag PartDeux
Yeah this song is for everybody that made NG
And that's perfectly fine if you don't know what that means

Who woulda thought that I would be here?
Who woulda though that this would be me?
I can tell you one thing
Not me
I didn't know that it was coming
I didn't know where it would go
So I guess I know one thing
And that's that I don't know
Nah I didn't plan this
No, it wasn't me
So when I look to the future
I can rest at ease cause
Who woulda thought that I would be here?
Who woulda thought that this would be me?
I can tell you one thing
Not me

MyShot 2.0, let's go; I'm revvin' and ready to roll
Sure, I was a stalker, but I was never a troll
Man I stopped, and I dropped, and I nearly hit the floor
When I found out that death was soon to be at our door
We were a community, but we were doomed, you see
So shoutout to MissJuneBug and Hilary
For staying pretty chill, even though we weren't
Sorry for calling you "Good sir," BriBert
Anyway, we uploaded a ton of pics at the end
Man I tried so hard to save all of the threads
So many memories with so many friends
There's no way that I could let it disappear and then be dead
So you know we had to move, but I think that we found our groove
And I think that we got closer after everything was over
There's a lot we had to lose, but I'm still liking PartDeux
There's a lot we had to lose, but I'm still liking PartDeux

Who woulda thought that I would be here?
Who woulda though that this would be me?
I can tell you one thing
Not me
I didn't know that it was coming
I didn't know where it would go
So I guess I know one thing
And that's that I don't know
Nah I didn't plan this
No, it wasn't me
So when I look to the future
I can rest at ease cause
Who woulda thought that I would be here?
Who woulda thought that this would be me?
I can tell you one thing
Not me

Yeah Derek told me I could do it, so I did it independent
I didn't really have any friends that were getting into it
Yeah they thought that it was funny every time my mouth was running
But I kept up the pace, and everybody gave me space
'Cause I guess I asked for it
I've never not had a 4, it's
Not something that I like to talk about a lot
Cause I know that other people really ain't doing that hot
But Katie pushed me that one summer, so I had to get it crackin'
They did not know I was rappin', like, "When did this happen?"
But MyShot got me a following, I'm feeling like it's poppin'
But I gotta keep on working, no I don't wanna be stopping
That's why I keep on dropping, and that's why I keep on writing
And honestly it's helping me recover when I'm fighting
But I gotta close it out with the right amount
No I Know I gotta make sure that they know what I'm about

Who woulda thought that I would be here?
Who woulda though that this would be me?
I can tell you one thing
Not me
I didn't know that it was coming
I didn't know where it would go
So I guess I know one thing
And that's that I don't know
Nah I didn't plan this
No, it wasn't me
So when I look to the future
I can rest at ease cause
Who woulda thought that I would be here?
Who woulda thought that this would be me?
I can tell you one thing
Not me
