ain't mad at you

changed?

i guess

i guess i'm the one who changed

changed for the better

but

my daughter straight

bro

we talkin' for life

for real

we was once two niggas of the same kind

quick to holler at the hoes at the same line

i'm happy for you

but i'm disappointed at the same time

look

this for my nigga

i know it's been a little while

heard through the grapevine that you still holding it down

i couldn't find the pride to say this shit to your face

so i did it it over snares and bass

you just takin' your place

we was young and wild

on a rush to get paid

runnin' 'round your side of town

nigga

them was the days

and i was bottom boy surviving

but the bottom was torn

brought me through your neighborhood and embraced me with open arms

so many ups and downs

just tryna get to the loot

they probably wouldn't believe all of the shit we been through

my brother

my ace

my homie

was closer than most

he couldn't get enough

they sent my boy up the road

and when he came home

i knew some shit was different

'cause looking in his eyes

i couldn't see it in him

when i got back in town

you know i went to get him

i told him 'bout the pounds

i told him 'bout the chickens

it always been our dreams to go from rags to riches

and now i got the scheme and you ain't even with it

i laughed about his dreams

a legitimate business

guess that was my way of showing you i got growin' to do

but hey

and i guess there's nothing wrong with change for the better

but i'ma be this way forever

and even though that it's forever thuggin' with me

never be scared to keep it a hundred with me

i ain't mad at you

yeah

i can't be mad at you (once you know a nigga like me

i'm thuggin' forever

bro

i don't need another nigga

i'm still thuggin'

bitch

i'ma die for you

man)

i ain't mad at you

yeah (in the middle of the trenches

nigga

the middle of the room

nigga

in front of everybody

nigga

with my gun in my motherfuckin' hand

if i go out

nigga)

i ain't mad at you

i ain't mad at you

yeah

oh

but you know

do your shit

my nigga

you know what i'm sayin'?

salute the kid

with everything

doing your thing

my nigga

yeah

you know what i'm sayin'?

you changed your life

there's nothing wrong with that

you know what i'm sayin'?

for sure

i still love you

my nigga

for sure

and i guess there's nothing wrong with change for the better

but i'ma be this way forever

and even though that it's forever thuggin' with me

never be scared to keep it a hundred with me

i ain't mad at you

yeah

mmm

i can't be mad at you

i ain't mad at you

yeah

uh

i ain't mad at you

i ain't mad at you

yeah

uh
