By Now

[Intro]
Yeah yeah
Thought we woulda been got there
Thought we woulda been got there
Yeah

[Verse 1]
I've been livin' through heartbreaks vicariously
I got no problems with people who takin' me seriously
Said none of us hungry, we share and we eat
Keep all our wins when it's very discrete
Runnin' from pride, in love with the time
The sun's in our eyes, we barley can see
Thought about what it'd be like to read your mind
Would it be worth it? What would I find?
Would it turn you to someone I like?
Or make you say you sorry you lied?
Under my wing, right on my side
I love you, it's a habit of mine
Back when I tried to show you the world
That's where the issue lies
Somewhere got stuck, got lost in my mind
Ended up runnin' tryna keep up with time
Somewhere around like summer '09
Sorry about that, so it's been a little while
Go with my gut, it's just my style
Build you up, never tears you down
I just do last round, round my town
Thought we woulda been got there by now

[Chorus]
Thought we woulda been got there
Thought we woulda been got there by now
Thought we woulda been got there
Thought we woulda been got there by now
Thought we woulda been got there
Thought we woulda been got there by now
Thought we woulda been got there
Thought we woulda been got there by now

[Verse 2]
You just keep moving, that's real easy
Chip on your shoulder could go with some chee chees
Wash that down with a San Pellegrino
Way back when, when no one believed me
Wanted to do it, they said that they need me
They take advantage, they want it for freezies
I still do it, I guess it's on me see
That's how I own it so no one controls it
I stay in charge, put that on good fortune
Takes longer but to me it's important
Stuff that you put out, I try to ignore it
But they see a dollar so they gon' endorse it
Take air from your lungs and put Air in your Forces
I just keep faith cause I know who the Lord is
I know that it's hard when they shine and it's gorgeous
Ain't never a reason to forfeit

[Chorus]
Thought we woulda been got there
Thought we woulda been got there by now
Thought we woulda been got there
Thought we woulda been got there by now
Thought we woulda been got there
Thought we woulda been got there by now
Thought we woulda been got there
Thought we woulda been got there by now
