Jon Julius Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
This shit's about how awhile ago I never thought that I'd be doing the shit that I'm doing now
(Aye, yeah, aye)
Never thought "this is what I'm doing"
Never thought this was where I'd be
Still got hella time left, when I been killing this shit, just turned 15
Never saw this as permanent
Yeah, now I realize my place
Never thought "this is what I'm doing"
Never thought this was where I'd be
Still got hella time left, when I been killing this shit, just turned 15
Never saw this as permanent
Yeah, now I realize my place
I said it in the past and I'll say it again bitch, I was put here to stay
They had expectations, I smash 'em like there is no middle ground
Catch a TD call me Kittle
Crown me as the goat
I remember when they would clown me for my music, they'd tell me to take it down
Nowadays, I am their favorite now
I drop a song, and they tell me to play it loud
Nowadays, I have been laying down verses for people who said I wouldn't make it
Yeah, they started asking for features, and selling my t-shirts when they saw how far I would take it
Bitch I am eager to stop all these pussies that talk from the bleachers, while I'm on the court and they hate it
I been a sleeper, but I'll put these bitches in freezers when they see the shit I'm coordinating
Then I'll melt 'em all when I get the ball, cause you know I been touring and blazing (aye)
(Touring and blazing, aye)
(Yeah, touring and blazing, aye)
(Bitch, yeah, touring and blazing, aye)
I never needed no help (never)
I did this shit by myself (by myself)
(Yeah, aye)
Never had no trouble, no, I ain't need no help
Never needed anything in this game yeah whole time I really only needed myself
I been solved this puzzle, bitch, I ain't need no friends
Fuck all the fakes, they just pretend, never needed none of them cause
Never thought "this is what I'm doing"
Never thought this was where I'd be
Still got hella time left, when I been killing this shit, just turned 15
Never saw this as permanent
Yeah, now I realize my place
I said it in the past and I'll say it again bitch, I was put here to stay
Never thought "this is what I'm doing"
Never thought this was where I'd be
Still got hella time left, when I been killing this shit, just turned 15
Never saw this as permanent
Yeah, now I realize my place
I said it in the past and I'll say it again bitch, I was put here to stay
(Never thought "this is what I'm doing"
Never thought this was where I'd be
Still got hella time left, when I been killing this shit, just turned 15
Never saw this as permanent, yeah
Never thought this would be my place
I said it in the past and I'll say it again bitch, I was put here to stay)
