Lately Lyrics

Lately, I've been noticing

They don't got your back

They just don't got your back

So you gotta put your back against the wall

Just to make sure you don't fall

It's hard out here when you tryna breathe

And they got their foot on your neck like church floors

Please let me breathe, oh lord

Let me breathe, let me succeed

Let me open up my wings and fly away

A better day is always a better way

Lately, lately, lately, I've been noticing

Lately, lately, lately, I've been noticing

That they don't got my back

So I'm standing tall, got my heart, gotta get it

Like I'm not getting home

Got my back against the wall

While my feet planted on the ground

Ten, so I'm standing tall, I'm getting it

I'm going far, I ain't stopping

If I'm throwing up all, I'm throwing it

Over a hundred yards

Hail Mary, straight down the field

Tryna fucking win, I don't understand

If you know how I feel

But it don't matter, cause I'm still in the field

I'm getting to it, tryna count up some bills

If they did, would I really want the bills

Billy's on my mind

I'm on that grind

And I gotta go off of mine

Cause I know they don't got my back

When I'm on a motherfucking grind

Wearing everything on the line

So I gotta make sure I take care of mine

Cause ain't nobody else gon' take care of mine

They don't care if everybody was dying

They gon' watch my family go to the ground

When I'm not around

So it's my time to shine

And let them know I'm here now

I'm gon' take care of home

I'm gon' do everything that I gotta do

To make sure my family is straight

Cause they ain't got your back

And they ain't tryna help

And they ain't tryna show no love

And they ain't gon' act

Just pay attention

They ain't gon' show they few colors

Yeah, they gon' make you feel like

They never really loved you

All you gotta do is pay attention

Open up your eyes

You will see the evil when they show the despise

Yeah, they gon' do everything

To try to stop you in their mind

They gon' try to seem like

They was the light in your life

Act like they was tryna help you get right

Nah, they ain't it

They ain't got your back

They ain't never had your back

They ain't gon' never have your back

So you gotta watch your back
