That Was BackThen - Dougie F

That was back then, throw it back like Thursday

Went from the worst case, now I’m feeling first place

Jersey got me that’s my birthplace

Got me getting cake no I don’t mean no birthday

Now I got a hundred thousand counting

Going hard nigga I can move a mountain

Sad thing I had to do this shit without you

Cause I thought I couldn’t do this shit without you

But that was back then, this now

She be on the dick now

Now them little homies wanna take a flick now

Niggas on the internet be talking shit now

I ain’t got the time, tell them niggas sit down

I been on my grind tell then niggas sit down

And I be so high up, high up

No I don’t wanna come down

That was back then

Oh, baby there’s now

I be still waiting on respect

From some corny niggas I don’t really fuck with

And I be still waiting on the bitch

That I probably ain’t even get the bucks with

And I be still struggling with the niggas

On the block that I fell outta touch with

And at the end a limo, get the memo

It’s the same niggas that I caught the bus with

Riding with same young niggas

I be in the club and that’s who I flex with

Bunch of young niggas nothing changed

But the lane, we ain’t never hit the exit

Just getting started, every day I’m on the move

I just gotta pick the phone up

There’s only seven stories in my project

Niggas then sales bout to go up

That was back then I had hoes and my clothes was some bum shit

That was back then I used to fight with my brother over dumb shit

That was back then if one fight we all fight, you getting jumped quick

And that was back then my father used to hit my mother on some dumb shit

We jumped to assumptions

We still love him and we just knew it was some drunk shit

And that was back then the black cop used to have a black jumper

And that was back then the Mayor crib used to look like a frat house

Throwing parties to pay the bills

It was real I just had to put the facts out

That was back then jay niggas got snatched by diapers

That was back then the dirty killer used to go off on them ciphers

That was back then we had wristbands on with the visors

And that was back then me and Eggy we been homies since the diapers

And that was back then the old heads man you know they didn’t like us

I mean respect us, we was grinding, we was tryna get the check up

Wasn’t stepping on their hoes, nothing extra

They must’ve felt the pressure

Shit they used to keep the work in the dresser

Used to have grandma straight stressing

That was back then

Oh, baby there’s now

Baby there’s now

They fucking with me now

But if this was back then
