lirik lagu j-formz - it used to be
[verse 1: j~formz]
nah, my mind ain’t as sharp as it used to be
but please don’t forget who i was just to get used to me
i used to run fast and jump higher, now i’m retired
the clock keeps tickin until the day that we’re expired and i’m tired
but i also got a little bit wiser
i may have lost a little fire, but at least i’m still tryin
you know? maybe as my body falters out
i’ll learn better responses, and how to talk sh~t out
i never met a perfect person in my life
but i also know the figure i wanna be for my kids and wifе
if there was evеr anybody son, then that’s who’s worth it
you gotta chip away some stone to make a statue perfect
a work in progress…
[chorus: j~formz]
so if i stumble my words, or forget what i’m sayin?
just remember, with the grammar, son, i used to be amazin
might be short on breath, or not come through in the clutch
but i would if i could, i hope you know that much
may not look the same, or be quite as much fun
just don’t have it in the me the way that i did when i was young
as you listen to me write about my life on the mic
do me a favor: please remember what it used to be like
i’m beggin…
[verse 2: j~formz]
i used to be a lot nicer, and a lot tougher
i was a sl!ck talkin, funny joke crackin, c~cky motha f~cka
but i was fun to be around, i was down for whatever
now i wanna just lounge, and not go out, ever
you don’t think the clock will come at you fast
until time f~cks you up, and it’ll humble your ass
my knees are shot, my hair started turnin grey
but some of my best friends never made it to this day
so what can i say? it’s bitter sweet, i guess
a tough pill to swallow, a bottle that’s hard to digest
so when i’m on my death bed in the hospital
will i regret the things that i did? or the things i never got to do?
i’ll be forever young on these tracks
so play these back, and please, just remember as i fade to black
this is the ultimate situation we all wind up in
cause even if you got a watch, you can’t tell time nothin
and i’m ghost……
[chorus: j~formz]
so if i stumble my words, or forget what i’m sayin?
just remember, with the grammar, son, i used to be amazin
might be short on breath, or not come through in the clutch
but i would if i could, i hope you know that much
may not look the same, or be quite as much fun
just don’t have it in the me the way that i did when i was young
as you listen to me write about my life on the mic
do me a favor: please remember what it used to be like
i’m beggin…
[outro: j~formz]
you know, just cause i ain’t out on the corner 24/7 no more doesn’t mean you should just forget how i always held it down, you know what i’m sayin? just remember all them battles i stepped up and won for our crew…don’t forget when everybody else disappeared and made excuses, who was still there…go ahead and take a minute, really think about it…just cause i’m limpin around now don’t mean i didn’t used to dominate homie, remember that…and please don’t forget who always took the blame when the cops came either…even when it wasn’t mine, you know what i mean? just cause i don’t party and drink all the time no more, don’t mean i wasn’t always the funnest, most down muh f~cka ever…just please do me a favor and remember that…i don’t say any of this to brag or big myself up, i ain’t looking for no praise…i just don’t want who i am to be confused with who i was…cause while everything may not be 100% anymore, it used to be……
