Lyrics
[Intro]
Back then
You ain’t even say my name
Look at you now though
Funny how it change (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Used to walk past me
Eyes straight through my face
Hand-me-down Nikes
Dreams stuffed in a milk crate
Lunchroom table
They laughed at the small plate
Now my plate heavy
Same ones beggin’ for a taste
I was ridin’ in the heat
Windows stuck, no air
They ain’t pick up my calls
Acted like I wasn’t there
Now I’m slidin’ through the city
Same number, new glare
You saved in my phone
As “Don’t You Dare” (yeah)
[Chorus]
Nobody liked me ’til I was somebody
Funny how they love you when the bag come
They ain’t dap me then, now they act buddy-buddy
I remember every face playin’ mad dumb
Where was you at when my tank on E?
You only see me now ’cause the chain on me
Say you day one, that’s a straight-up lie
You ain’t like me
’Til I was somebody
[Verse 2]
You ain’t want the quiet kid
Talkin’ ’bout “he too lame”
Now you in my comments
Type hearts on my new name
Cousin never hit back
Now he callin’ me “fam”
Told him I don’t need a crowd
I just needed a plan
Mama kitchen light on
Bills stacked in a shoebox
Prayed I’d make a dollar flip
Staring at that blue clock
They ain’t see the late shift
They just see the new watch
You don’t get a seat here
You just get a view spot (watch)
[Chorus]
Nobody liked me ’til I was somebody
Funny how they love you when the bag come
They ain’t dap me then, now they act buddy-buddy
I remember every face playin’ mad dumb
Where was you at when my tank on E?
You only see me now ’cause the chain on me
Say you day one, that’s a straight-up lie
You ain’t like me
’Til I was somebody
[Bridge]
Now they wanna ride shotgun (shotgun)
Now they swear they held me down from day one (day one)
I was sleepin’ on a cot in my cousin’s den
You ain’t call once then
Why you callin’ now, friend? (huh)
[Chorus]
Nobody liked me ’til I was somebody
Funny how they love you when the bag come
They ain’t dap me then, now they act buddy-buddy
I remember every face playin’ mad dumb
Where was you at when my tank on E?
You only see me now ’cause the chain on me
Say you day one, that’s a straight-up lie
You ain’t like me
’Til I was somebody
