I Think About

I Think About Lyrics

VERSE 1

I made it off the block—my homie got torched

So maybe some of my depression is survivor’s remorse

I think about

All the things that had to work out for me to make it out

This is God’s plan

What if Daddy would’ve took us out the same night that he took his self

I think about

Momma being so stressed after he left that she thought about taking herself

Lord knows

How hard it had to be for a woman to raise 4 Black boys in America

I think about

Her saying, “I’ma whop you before they do”

Them whoopings probably saved our life

All the pain she felt, all them nights that she must’ve cried

I think about

How I’ma spend my whole life, trying to make it alright

I promise you, Momma

⸻

CHORUS (x2)

I ain’t go through all this just for nothing

I’ma turn nothing into something—I promise

Ever think of counting me out? Keep counting

Talk about the struggle—yeah, I’m from it

⸻

VERSE 2

I used to want a room, then I went and bought a house

Upgraded my bad chick to a God-fearing spouse

I used to want a Cadillac with candy-coated gloss

Now I got shares of Tesla in my account

I used to mix peach Crush and promethazine

Bought some stock in Pfizer before they dropped the COVID vaccine

I used to have a team full of hunnid killers, real hittas

Now I got like 5 homies—blood run thicker

I’m no longer chasing bags

Now I’m more concerned with budgeting and my taxes

I used to skip practice—before I read Mamba Mentality

Kobe didn’t leave till he made 1,000 baskets

RIP to the GOAT

And when you really getting money, last thing on your mind is the smoke

But we’ll still light it up—

Huh

I’m talking stock in solar energy, ain’t no outshining us

⸻

CHORUS (x2)

I ain’t go through all this just for nothing
