where was u?

I ride around hittin' licks

With this smoke in my lungs

I swear that once upon a time

I wasn't trainin' with thugs

I was out in the A doin' shit, I'm not proud

Couldn't even tell my mama

I know she'd have a cow

Now I'm gettin' this money

Goin' the legal route

Born with hustlin' in my blood

My people out in a drought

So tell me, where is the love?

Baby where is the feeling?

Before I started gettin' money

People actin' like demons now hold up

Cause I know, I know you see it now i know

I know, I know

Where was you when I was hungry?

Where was you when I was all alone?

Where was you when I was lonely?

Cause now I'm gettin' it and everybody knows

Everybody knows

Cause now I'm gettin' it and everybody knows

So where was you when everybody hated me?

Cause now I'm gettin' it, I got it on my own

On my own alone

These commas up on my mind

Always thinkin' 'bout M's

Lately I don't gotta try

This shit just keep comin' in

I got a safe with my watches

Watches, snatchers and thieves

Mama wanted a crib

I put her out on the beach

And it got dark for a minute

Even too dark for myself

The city took their time with Bear

I guess they sleepin' on me

So tell me, where is the love?

Tell me, where is the feeling?

Before I started makin' records

Boy this shit had a ceiling, but hold up

Cause I know, I know you see me now

You see me now and I know

Where was you when I was hungry?

Where was you when I was all alone?

Where was you when I was lonely?

Cause now I'm gettin' it and everybody knows

Everybody knows

Cause now I'm gettin' it and everybody knows

So where was you when everybody hated me?

Cause now I'm gettin' it, I got it on my own

On my own alone

Yo bro

Just wanted to give you a call to update

You on these label deals we have to

Turn down another one it is what it is

But you know what I always say:

It just has to make sense and maybe

The lane makes no damn sense, so we do like

We always do, keep on keepin' on 'cause these

Labels just want what we've been building

For so long alright?

Where was you when I was hungry?

Where was you when I was all alone?

Where was you when I was lonely?

Cause now I'm gettin' it and everybody knows

Everybody knows

Cause now I'm gettin' it and everybody knows

So where was you when everybody hated me?

Cause now I'm gettin' it, I got it on my own

On my own alone
