[Verse 1] Yeah, Sherman Avenue Playing ball, we would k** it there Yeah, I miss it there Ain't been back since June, man it's been a year Hit Expressions on the East just to get a pair Yeah, and Friday nights that was Thayer Street Bring my homies up from Duke, they would stay the week Yeah, and all the sudden now I'm headed for these magazine covers But never will I ever forget when I wasn't I miss my old girl, f** your new dude But if you had to choose, what would you do? Forget feelings, left those back at home Ain't got time for that emotional petty sh** on the road Since I took a leap of faith, I've been living in another world My only make-up s** is with the cover girls And even though a lot of things changed, just know the real me still remain Hand to God, for real [Hook] I just wanna let you know, I can't come home tomorrow This is what I wrote Yeah I hope that you all remember me for the dude I used to be
For the dude I used to be [Verse 2] My whole family out in Spain, I wish I could've made it Had a lot to do, ain't got time for no vacation Fan base waitin', claimin' I'mma make it Finished up the tape, thank y'all for your patience Late nights, day time we running to meetings New phone, friends lost and numbers deleted And know it's love, and I wish I could show it Interviews about where I'm from, cause they know where I'm going It's kind of funny how a few words turn into f**ing Nowadays it's nuttin' more cause I've already done it And nothing hurt more than heartbreak, when the start great Thinking it's love, and learning it wasn't And good girls come few and far between Some nights I do it just to do it, I'm not sure what that mean Just a little caught up in the game But know the real me still remain Hand to God, for real [Hook] x2
