Once Upon a Time Lyrics

Once upon a time, back around the 90's

Before I seen how evil the world is and lost my mind

I seen the darkness in the world but never let it steal my shine

And never let it get me dimmer, I just shimmer and leave em blind

Once upon a time, back around the 90's

Before I seen how evil the world is and lost my mind

I seen the darkness in the world but never let it steal my shine

And never let it get me dimmer, I just shimmer and leave em blind

They like, what?

I don't even know. They like, Raymo keep that flow

I'm so cold, wherever I go I'll just leave a sheet of snow

Got green like I need to mow

The lawn when they let it be and allow the seeds to grow

Give me a sign, something divine

Show me that I'm not defined by mistakes I've made

It's about adapting and staying on my grind

I was feeling antsy, hands in the pockets of my pants, but if you think of coming at me

You'll be laying where the worms and ants be

They like, is that Raymo? It can't be

Yes, I'm back, double up that anty

Hungry and ripping apart your pantry

So far ahead of them, no, they can't see

Me, like I'm a million miles away

Say, fuck depression until it lessens and woke up with a smile today, ay

I've been trying to get out more than sometimes

So I'm always thankful for these moments that let me unwind

Instead of being confined

In a small room with the blinds closed to not let in any more of that sunshine

Once upon a time, back around the 90's

Before I seen how evil the world is and lost my mind

I seen the darkness in the world but never let it steal my shine

And never let it get me dimmer, I just shimmer and leave em blind

Once upon a time, back around the 90's

Before I seen how evil the world is and lost my mind

I seen the darkness in the world but never let it steal my shine

And never let it get me dimmer, I just shimmer and leave em blind

Chilling, reminiscing about the 90's

Listening, thinking about the memories behind me

All I wanted then was someone to come sign me

Now I'd rather make it independent, man this industry is grimy

Fuck you, kindly. I'm done letting people getting the best of me

The emotions weighing on me, sometimes I get sick of this empathy

But I'm the only one that's in control of my own destiny

So why don't you just get the fuck up out my face respectfully

I'm done with the negativity, I'm done with all the pain

No, I ain't waiting for the sunshine, bitch I'm dancing in the rain

I don't know why I always got so many things going on in my brain

Around and around, to the point that this shit just drives me insane

Until I crack and lose control of my emotions, let them flow

So then I lack the energy to fix what I just broke

And so I let it stack and build up

Cause I can't communicate my thoughts and get on track

If you could win a trophy for trying, I'd have some plaques

Just take me back

Once upon a time, back around the 90's

Before I seen how evil the world is and lost my mind

I seen the darkness in the world but never let it steal my shine

And never let it get me dimmer, I just shimmer and leave em blind

Once upon a time, back around the 90's

Before I seen how evil the world is and lost my mind

I seen the darkness in the world but never let it steal my shine

And never let it get me dimmer, I just shimmer and leave em blind
