[Lyric] Once Upon a Time in Paradise . (Desperry)

[Verse]
Tryna reverse time
I see i’m changing in your eyes for the first time
I wanted M’s for my niggas
Since like ‘09
I can’t be the same nigga
Though i’m inclined
If I was really hated
Then they would’ve been slide
Back when my girl & her friends listened to Sublime
Always be at the Mickey D’s, felt like King Size
& I never switched sides
Though we all insecure on the inside
At 17 I thought I knеw it all
My best friend turned to hatеr
Like we wasn’t raw
I guess insecurity might just be involved
& I eclipsed on an ego
So he cut me off
Reminiscing over Graduation
The album not the graduation
Forgiving niggas like they didn’t overstep my boundaries
& i’m just sitting tryna tie my laces
Shit is crazy
Like look, you made me
& trust me, i’m never at a dead end
But folk turn to dead ends
& I can only blame myself
For letting people get in
Too much weighing on me
I don’t bench press it
Roll me up your problems
We can find the message
Wine & some water
Took her out to breakfast
Told me couple stories
Now we don’t even text (damn)
I felt like you know me
But you do not know me
But how many really know me
That’s another story
So now i’m finna reconcile
Nah that’s hella dead
God forbid
I knew they change up
Like I fucking said
Persevering
I be steering
Through the fucking bread
Everybody puppets
Dancing up like marionettes
Everybody going bad
I’m like who is next?
World is ending
Sky might fall
I still do my best
& then even if I fall
This gon carry Des
I met Druski
It’s a funny thing
I knew I him but I blanked out & forgot his name
Backstage with Harlow life right before the fame
Crazy both them niggas year before ain’t have a thing
I wonder if the same thing is in store for me
I can’t lose it now
See now, I got some more to see
I use to want women
Wishing that they adoring me
Now my ambition & listeners is my surety
Don’t ever let 'em tell you that you can’t succeed
Don’t ever let 'em tell you that you cannot ever dream
Cause when there’s a little light somewhere in betwixt, between
& a little magic
That is all you really need
Simple thing
