Just the other day, it was a just dream to make it

Just the other day, that same dream, they tried to take it

Just the other day, all you wanna do is see 'em be great

Just the other day, they look you in your face, eyes full of hate

(Bobby Kritical)

Just the other day I was goddamn broke

You got a five, I got a five, let's smoke

Just the other day I was running from them folks

Like (woah, woah) nigga you too slow

Just the other day I was telling all my bros

(Woah, woah) nigga, it's time to go (woah, woah)

Just the other day I was goddamn broke

Just the other day I was, yeah

Just other day I was broke as a bitch

Walking to work in the hot sun, so-soaking it in

I never been a dope man, but I'm the dopest of man

Buying some smoke from the dude with the dope

Throw five, four-point-five, so on, so forth

I'm tryna get my fucking goals, not Goyard

Paying for the lawyers, get my bros out the courtyard

'Cause I got the ear for the flows, not Mozart, but damn a nigga go hardSE

Put me on a postcard or miss me 'til the show start

My niggas got a Benz and he push it like a go-cart

Tryna get one of them, but my aunts like, "Don't start

The bullshit again 'fore you end up a broke boy again"

So don't pretend

Oh we remember, last September, like the coldest winter

Man, I really had to show these niggas

I owe these niggas a throat slit, know me nigga

Just the other day I was goddamn broke

You got a five, I got a five, let's smoke

Just the other day I was running from them folks

Like (woah, woah) nigga you too slow

Just the other day I was telling all my bros

(Woah, woah) nigga, it's time to go (woah, woah)

Just the other day I was goddamn broke

Just the other day I was, yeah

Today, today, I woke up like this

My girl on my left, no watch on my wrist

Some rings on my fist, what we did last night? Damn

Was it a hurricane in here last night?

It would appear that something sexual or severe happened

Being that I see liquor and beer, weed

People still in the living room sleep

Come and see, huh

She say, "I'm dizzy," don't wanna move, just wanna lay under me

Honestly, I know that just the other day you was goddamn broke

Watch outside, that nigga shot them folks

Glock in ya ride, you gotta watch them folks

And the cops be wilding, we ain't even provoke 'em

I remember being broker than I is right now

Tryna find a place to live, shit I'm is right now

In doubt of my next move, get a pill, bite down, find focus

I grab pen, it was poetry in motion

Not the same for many folks, different strokes

Colloquialism, idiot vision, y'all seen I was doing the most

Definite dope, it's on the scene, not in need of a vote

Repping the city, what's ya team, nigga? Fuck 'em

East Atlanta king and I mean every letter

But when I'm good, I'm good, when I'm bad, I'm better

The man of the method, it's a method to the madness

I'm stepping in my bag with the cannon, step back

Repping the city, showing love that I don't ever get back

But that's the plight of a player, plot an attack and rocking and rapping

Rippin' rappers off of the fuckin' map, suckers suffering, succotash

I need that Mark Zucker bag, Zuckerberg

Hovercraft flows, I don't fuck with that, bullshit below

From the ceiling to the floor, full schizo for the dough

Dual pistol, but I know I'm planting seeds so they can grow

But if they don't, then I don't know

But all I know is, nigga

Just the other day I was goddamn broke

You got a five, I got a five, let's smoke

Just the other day I was running from them folks

Like (woah, woah) nigga you too slow

Just the other day I was telling all my bros

(Woah, woah) nigga, it's time to go (woah, woah)

Just the other day I was goddamn broke

Just the other day I was, yeah
