Same Old Me
Rittz Lyrics

People all in my business
Many people are involved in my personal affairs and gossip about me

Talk about me online
They discuss and spread rumors about me on the internet

Homies saying I'm changing
Even my close friends claim that I am becoming different

Calling me on my downtime
They contact me during my free time, expecting me to be available

I can't pick up my phone because I just got home
I am unable to answer my phone because I have only recently returned home

And I've been gone two months my time is spent
I have been away for two months, and now I need to rest and recover

I got a fiance take a while to adjust being home then I'm gone again
I am engaged, and it takes time to adapt to being home before I have to leave again

How the fuck you know how much money's in
Why the hell do you think you know the exact amount of money I have

My bank account, its funny the assumption made
It's amusing how people make assumptions about the balance in my bank account

Crumbs don't become a cake overnight
Success and wealth are not achieved instantly

On the road for over fifty-something days
I have been traveling for more than fifty days

And I still can't post a GoFundMe page
I am unable to request financial support through a GoFundMe page

Without a dumbass telling me, you got it, Rittz
Someone foolishly advises me that I already have enough money

So many hands in my pocket
Many people try to take advantage of my wealth

I feel like the cops are frisking me looking for my dollar bills
I perceive others searching for my money like police officers performing a frisk

I took 'em so low on the OD tour, lost like fifty-five grand
I experienced a significant financial loss of around $55,000 during the OD tour

Lesson learned, I can't afford to bust shit
I realized that I cannot afford to waste money anymore

I told my girl we gotta cancel our plans
I informed my fiancé that we need to cancel our scheduled activities

And I went off on a tangent
I went on an angry and unfocused rant

A wreck, cause I'm panicking
I am a mess and feeling anxious

Life as a rambling man disappearing
My life as a constantly traveling individual is vanishing

And I'm damned and I can see they can't get a handle of saying it
I feel cursed, and it seems like others cannot comprehend my situation

But do it for my handful of fans
I persevere for the sake of my small group of supporters

And I still ain't changed
Despite everything, I am still the same person

Never
Absolutely not

It's Rittz, bitch
I am Rittz, and don't you forget it

People change and I don't know why
I don't understand why people undergo transformations

Cause I'm still the same old me
Because I am still the person I have always been

Aw yeah
Oh yes

Money come and go, but so what?
Wealth can fluctuate, but it doesn't matter

I'm still the same old me
I haven't changed despite financial fluctuations

Aw yeah, aw yeah
Oh yes, oh yes

Look, might've seen me on a poster or the grocery store
You may have spotted me on a poster or even at the grocery store

People that are scared to approach me are
Individuals who are afraid to come up to me

No different than me
They are just like me

I write raps for a living and I'm overjoyed
I am delighted to make a living as a rap artist

And even if I get no awards for my music
Even if I don't receive any accolades for my songs

Fans say it helped them cope before
My fans claim that my music has helped them deal with difficulties in the past

Made 'em hope for more
My music has given them hope for a better future

Sometimes the sky can seem so out of reach
Sometimes achieving success can feel unattainable

When you're sitting on the ocean floor
When you're in a low and difficult position

I did Breakfast with Sway
I appeared on the Breakfast Club radio show with Sway

On shade forty-five with Heather B
I was also on the radio show Shade 45 with host Heather B

You can see the YouTube video
The video of these appearances is available on YouTube

Where the mic fell, shit was embarrassing
In the video, my microphone fell, causing an embarrassing moment

Did a song with Trae the Truth
I collaborated on a track with the artist Trae the Truth

I met Devin the Dude
I had the opportunity to meet and interact with Devin the Dude

And man, I just did a video with Twista
Recently, I filmed a music video with the rapper Twista

Shit I think somebody needa pinch my arm
Sometimes I can't believe the opportunities I have been given

Here, lets take a picture for the Instagram
Let's capture a moment in a photograph to share on Instagram

This is famous fam with no Travis Barker
I have gained fame even without the support of someone like Travis Barker

Tagging Rittz bitch with a magic marker
Writing the phrase 'Rittz bitch' on something with a marker as a form of identification

The Agora Theater in Cleveland to Phoenix
I have performed at venues ranging from The Agora Theater in Cleveland to Phoenix

It's like I'm on a magic carpet
It feels as if I am traveling effortlessly and magically

Shit I'm dreaming a bit
Sometimes it feels like I am living in a dream

Sold out shows, I was up in the arena with Tech
I have performed in sold-out shows with Tech N9ne in large arenas

Then I flew back home to Atlanta, did a show for my homie
Afterward, I returned home to Atlanta and performed a concert for a close friend

Only twenty-five people was there, but I rocked that bitch
Though the audience size was only twenty-five people, I gave an outstanding performance

One time for the dreamers
I want to acknowledge and support those who have big dreams

I pray your day will soon come
I hope that your dreams will be realized in the near future

It's hard to know what you here for
It can be difficult to understand your purpose in life

It'll reveal itself in due time
Your purpose will become clear at the right moment

I rap with friends who ain't made it
I collaborate with fellow artists who haven't achieved success yet

Let your lyrics channel through mine
Allow your words and emotions to flow through my music

Two times for the fans that motivated me the minute I started to lose sight
I want to acknowledge and thank the fans who have supported me and kept me motivated when I faced difficulties

They be showing up in each, state
These fans attend my shows in every state

Fans overseas saying peace, mate
My international fans greet me with the phrase 'peace, mate'

They loving the lyrics because they re-late
They appreciate my lyrics because they can relate to them

They give me the motivation to cre-ate
Their support inspires me to continue creating music

When I'm fettered it gets hard for me to see, straight
It becomes challenging for me to think clearly when I am overwhelmed

To my family I used to be a di-sgrace
My family used to consider me a disappointment

The time I'm spending rapping was a big, waste
They thought that the time I devoted to rap music was a significant waste

But I finally got a record deal a big, break
However, I finally secured a record deal, which was a major opportunity for me

Time to be, great
Now I have the chance to achieve greatness

Homie we, chase
My friends and I are determined to pursue our dreams

The paper 'til the muscles in our feet, ache
We will work relentlessly until our feet ache from the effort

And finally I got to have a sweet, taste
And at long last, I experienced success and enjoyed its rewards

Of victory, picture me rolling with the homies C-N-T, mane
I imagine myself celebrating triumph alongside my friends C-N-T

Everybody in the world wanna de-bate
Everyone worldwide wants to argue and deliberate

Who's better Meek, Drake?
They discuss who is superior between Meek Mill and Drake

I'm just hoping that I reach, they
I am simply hoping that I can reach their level of success

Level, went back-to-back-to-back
I continuously released successful songs

Haters saying he, changed
There are people who claim that I have altered as a person

Like really?
Seriously?

Ain't shit changed
Nothing has changed at all

I still live in Gwinnett
I still reside in Gwinnett

Still got the same homies
I still have the exact same group of friends

Clintel
One of my close friends named Clintel

I ain't rich, bitch
I am not wealthy, so don't call me 'bitch'

I'm Rittz, bitch
My name is Rittz, and don't you forget it

People change and I don't know why
I don't understand why people undergo transformations

Cause I'm still the same old me
Because I am still the person I have always been

Aw yeah
Oh yes

Money come and go, but so what?
Wealth can fluctuate, but it doesn't matter

I'm still the same old me
I haven't changed despite financial fluctuations

Aw yeah, aw yeah
Oh yes, oh yes
