[Intro: O. Nicole] Once was blind [Verse] My brother Ben is off to college now I didn't know how close we had really grown I talk to God more often now so I don't feel alone Not a lot red numbers on my phone In I'm not popular Never had a whole lot of followers Only one in my fam who don't need gla**es God gave me some binoculars I can see the future and the future said why you playing games You a nice rapper but a bad actor you gon' mess around and forget your name You used to be a good super hero Before fans and before the fame But now you flying over all the crowd for a pic on Instagram you a lame I used to listen before the dreads when it was TrillWill and rubber band chains Before aha when it was just Gazelle with the baby dreads buy you didn't complain I used to love it when sung to me back when you said you couldn't sing Now you sing in front everybody like you used to do it was you and me You wrote song called you still remember well I still remember everything Remember when you put paper clips on the end of ya pants and called them skinny jeans Remember when weren't ashamed of me and you said didn't care what anybody thinks Remember the journal with your life goals you wrote 'em all down when you were 16 You wrote a song called staring contest about a chick that you don't even see She moved away but if she had the chance to come and see you today what would she really think Are you ashamed you had both parents and you went to church and ya dads a preacher Are you ashamed of who you really are, are you ashamed that you believe in Jesus [Bridge: Aha Gazelle & (O. Nicole)] Why you tryna hide (why you tryna hide) it ain't no secret (it ain't no secret) Why you playing dumb (why you playing dumb) I need you (I need you) I know you had enough them ain't yo people Who you hiding from I see you Cool [Hook: Aha Gazelle] (x2) I once was blind but now I see I got the power all up in me My roof on fire I know you can't breathe I got hot sauce all over me [Hook: O. Nicole] (x2) I once was blind but now I see I got the power all up in me My roof on fire I know you can't breathe I got hot sauce all over me [Outro: O. Nicole] Once was blind
