Bodega Bamz Dear Music
[Intro]
For the record, y'all
Word, listen though
[Verse 1]
I remember when I was about fourteen, Brandeis High School
Stood online, but from afar I spotted you
Gathering crowds like even all the bitches wanted you
Scared to approach, so I admired from a distance
I knew you before you knew I existed
I heard you brung all the bitches (Word)
I heard you only bring business
DZA was the man in high school, thanks to you
Had to get next to him just to get next to you
I got a notebook just to make it right for you
I won't lie, when I started, wasn't right for you
DZA got kicked out, thought that I was next in line
But the homie Streets swooped in in the nick of time
But I wasn't even ready, didn't have a flow of mine
Still I couldn't rhyme, let me tell you 'bout this love of mine
Fast-forward, still chasin', how can I help you
Even though you don't belong to nobody I know I'm special
Wait 'til you notice me, I can love you different
You could be my main, drugs be my mistress
Oh, how I love when I first met music
[Chorus]
Kill for it, kneel for it, steal for it
My music loves story
Hurt for it, lie for it, die for it
My music loves story
Kill for it, kneel for it, steal for it
Oh, how I love when I first met music
Oh, how I love when I first met music
[Interlude]
So you know, I just broke down how we met, feel me?
Shout out to Smoke DZA for introducin' me
But um, to that point, I just needed to make it known
That I was next in line to get that love, you feel me?
Up until that point, I just heard so many good things
But not really seein' it for myself
I went from not bein' accepted to bein' accepted
And now I deadass hate to love to love to hate music, Ohla
[Verse 2]
Told y'all, I dropped "My Name Is" and "P.A.P.I"
I went from a no-name nobody to somebody overnight
We was goin' out every night
I can't tell you the last time I stood online
Radio, interviews, magazines, all the blogs
I was gettin' so used to this love of ours
One bridge burned, on the wave, I said, "let 'em drown"
More bridges burned like what goes around comes around
Now you actin' different, forgot what I meant to you
Made me lose trust with everybody that would stand by you
Why you want a break every time I cool down?
And jump to the next when you hear a new sound
You made me so angry, more bitter and jealous
You made me feel entitled with no titles on Tidal
I went from never needin' help, now I want the credit
Man, I wish the simple days never left
Money is great, and all the fans that I got, I'm grateful
I love you then hate you then love you in that order
[Chorus]
Hurt for it, lie for it, die for it
The f..ck was I thinkin'?
Fiend for it, pay for it, pray for it
I should've been listenin'
It's never faithful, it never will be, don't let it use you
My music loves story
