Brand New
Sullivan Jazmine Lyrics

If I had a dime for every nigga with a rap dream
I'm so tired of all these guys who think they are going to be rap stars.

And all the girls that be riding working two jobs
I see so many hardworking women who are supporting their boyfriends who are pursuing their musical dreams.

But her boy stays at home making mixtapes
Her boyfriend is always at home creating mixtapes, trying to make it big in the music industry.

With a "Don't Disturb" on the doorknob
He is so focused on his music that he doesn't want to be bothered by anyone while he is working on his craft.

Then I buy a cheap dress every Friday
I want to look good when I'm out supporting my boyfriend at his shows, but I don't want to spend a lot of money on it.

Cause I go to every show on the weekend
I'm always by my boyfriend's side, cheering him on at every performance.

And I gotta look good when I'm reppin' him
I want to make sure that I'm representing my boyfriend in the best way possible when I'm out in public with him.

He say he about to sign a deal, he about to blow
My boyfriend is telling me that he is about to sign a record deal and become famous.

And gotta move to Atlanta, we about to go
He has to move to Atlanta for his music career and we are going to go with him.

I finally see the light and I'm glad I stayed
I now realize that my boyfriend is going to make it big and I'm glad that I stuck by his side.

But the label said he should be single
The record label is telling my boyfriend that he should break up with me and be single for the sake of his career.

Wait, what he saying?
I'm confused and don't understand why he would have to be single to become famous.

Well baby fuck you and then the new crew that you're rollin' with
I am so done with you and your new group of friends since you've become famous.

They don't know you like I do
Your new friends don't know the real you like I do.

I swear when n***as start making money, they start acting funny
Once guys start making money, they start acting completely different and forgetting about the people who were there for them from the beginning.

There's no love when they come up
They forget about the love and support that they received when they were still struggling.

They get it brand new
They forget about everything and start acting brand new.

This one's for all the baby mamas and the down ass chicks
I'm dedicating this song to all the women who supported their boyfriends before they became famous.

Remember y'all used to take bathroom pics, In the crib
Remember when we used to take pictures together in the bathroom of our small apartment?

And he said if he ever got rich, we out this bitch
He promised that if he ever became rich and famous, we would leave our struggles behind and live a better life.

Believe that shit
I really believed him when he promised that we would be able to leave our struggles behind.

But now you're living good while I'm sitting
Now that he's famous, he's living a good life while I'm still struggling.

Oh he's probably messing with them hoes, I know
I have a feeling that he's cheating on me with other girls now that he's famous.

That's so brand new
That's something completely unexpected and new from him, especially considering how we've been together through everything.

And my bitches calling me like "Hey
My friends are calling me and telling me that they've seen him with other girls.

Ain't that your nigga with Ye, ain't that your nigga with Jay?"
They're asking me if that's really my boyfriend with famous rappers like Kanye West and Jay-Z.

God damn I'm so embarrassed
I'm so embarrassed and upset seeing him with other girls in public.

But I ain't gon' call 'em, cause I've been drinking
I want to call him out on his cheating, but I know it's probably not a good idea to do it while I'm drunk.

But I'm getting madder cause this liquor got me thinking
Drinking is making me more agitated and annoyed with the situation instead of making it better.

Now I'm dialling your phone
I can't resist it anymore and I'm finally calling him on his phone.

'Cause we both know that I deserve the throne
I know that I deserve better than this and I want to take control of the situation.

(I'm sorry, this number has been disconnected)
I'm disappointed to find out that his phone number is no longer in service.

This ain't fair, who is this?
I'm getting fed up that things aren't going my way and that I can't even contact him.

Who is lovin' you?
I'm wondering who is loving him and supporting him now that he's famous and forgot about me.

Never thought that you would act so brand new
I never thought that he would change this much and forget about me once he became famous.

While you're living good, what about me too?
He's living the good life now that he's famous, but what about me and everything that we have been through together?
