[Intro]

Ooh shawty

Things are gonna get easier

Ooh shawty

Things will get brighter


[Verse 1]

I'm focused all on the vision

That's the piece that was missin'

I ain't doing no dissin'

This is self innovation

Yeah, that nigga was trippin'

So much time I was spendin'

Fell in love with these hoes and not in love with my business

Said, I'm in love with the crown, it ain't the wrong state of mind

If you let it these politics they'll get you every time

It got me smoking on that weed

Drinking off that shelf until I looked up in the mirror

And I had to ask myself "What happened?"

Oh, what happened to that little nigga that was rockin' all of them shows?

What happened to that little nigga that was gettin' all of them hoes?

What happened to my little nigga that was been 'posed to be on?

What happened?

What happened to that young nigga? He used to go so hard

What happened to that little nigga that sang from his heart?

What happened to that little nigga that used to give his all?

What happened?


[Interlude]

It's just the truth y'all

I let this shit take my passion, I got it back now

Oh yeah

Yeah, I remember I was fifteen, Pharrell told me

"Keep showing these niggas you can do what they can't do"

That's how I knew this shit was real

That this shit was destined, yeah


[Verse 2]

Did it do what imagined? Put my shit on the shelves

They told me I wasn't ready, this shit is bad for my health

I sent a letter to Ashley, asking where was the help?

If you ain't fucking with it I'ma do this shit by myself

They decided to drop me, sponge the fire inside me

I'ma make this shit happen when all my day was a homie

I'ma make this shit happen with the hoodie right behind me

I'll put it all on the line, I'll do it all for the family

And now I'm bringing back that little nigga that was rockin' all of these shows

I'm bringing back that little nigga that was fucking all of these hoes

I'm bringing back that little nigga you see upon the TV

That little nigga that made a million four times fifteen

So, next time I'm in L.A., see my dad and he limpin'

Tell him, nigga, no more worries, fuck it, throw him a million

Throw him a million, throw my mama a million

'Cause she quit her career to make sure I was filmin'

I was on the TV, niggas know I was killin'

Made a million in my teens, these niggas know I was killin'

But what happened?
