[Intro: Shiloh Dynasty]

You say that you don't like them, but I see you all the time

I peep shit

You say that you don't like them, but I see you all the time

I peep shit

You say that you don't like them, but I see you all the time

I peep shit

You say that you don't like them, but I see you all the time

I peep shit


[Verse 1]

Uh, 'cause lately I've been losing all my patience

Lately every single girl I'm fucking with is fucking basic

Rather get wasted

That's why when you see me in the studio I'm usually keeping bottles adjacent, uh

Yeah, and loud packs on the table just to chase it

I'm dream-chasing lifestyles of being rich and fucking famous

I got a couple friends that probably won't fucking play this

And lately got a couple friends stuck in between quotations

Yeah, I'm Charlie Dickens with these expectations

Despite stressing over how I'm making my electric payments

I'm worried that my latest song won't be my fucking greatest

And all my new fans will listen and then just fucking hate this

And lately I've been staring at the ceiling looking up

Wondering if I'll have a good job or be in basements

My biggest fear is not that I won't make it

Lately my biggest fear is that one day I'll be complacent


[Verse 2]

Lately been the best in the booth

When I get up on the mic, grip it tight, spit the truth

Everything I make is dope, it don't matter what I do

You can hear the chitter-chatter and they saying I'm that dude

Only brought to laughter when I'm thinking about you

Brag about the paper like it's not even cool, yo

Narrow-minded but I'm thinking obtuse

Number one while you're catching a deuce, and

Lately been the best with the flow

I ain't ever doing it for show

I been only doing it for me

Myself and I

Maybe just a little for the hoes

Lately I been sitting here working on the craft

Sitting in my room and I'm writing all the raps

Working on the beats and you know I got a stash

And I'm riding out the wave, I don't want it to crash, I don't want it to crash

(Yeah)

(Lately)
