Lyrics
That was when the blogs were really powerful
Like, there was that
There was that space where, you know, I was flooding
And all the writers at all these like
Blogs and shit have emails from fuckin'
Eight, nine years ago
I made a lot of decisions that I thought were right
Marred by incisions to my awkward plight
That would follow me just to mark my flight
Ain't no difference between you and I
Outside of me operating in the graces that God provides
Came a long way from Mom copping Karl Kani
Or me thinking that I got my fam and we gone be alright
Or me thinking RDFND the fam for life
Or me thinking that I'm happy cause I found a wife
Or me thinking that the music 'bout to pop because I
Made all these connections with these people that keep talking like
K1NGELJAY.com used to be the site
Or yeah it's all good because I know you from TheREDEFINED
Hearing Russ name drop the site used to get me hype
Used to inspire me to keep going, maybe I could
Get back into the journalism with things I write
But I realized I love it here behind this mic
Hindsight's 20/20 right, right
Well if I could go back and do it twice
Maybe I would get it right
There's regrets heavy on my mind, right
Take me back to 2020
Bet I change everybody's life
Hindsight's 20/20 right
Well if I could go back and do it twice
Maybe I would get it right
There's regrets heavy on my mind, right
And I hate the fact I feel like
I'm wasting everybody's time
I know this sound a little stupid
But if I had to put some thought into it
The first thing I'd do was figure out
There were people 'round me that didn't
Want my well-being a long as I made this music
Would've ended that as soon as I came to it
Instead of holding on for like four more years
Would've allocated my resources better
Eliminating excuses to erode those fears
Couple folks i need to apologize to
'Cause me going through the things that I went through
Might've sabotaged trajectories and split friend groups
Heavy is the crown on the one that rules
But even all of this feels like an excuse
When I can just do better
Nothing is stopping me from keeping my head up
And using my mistakes as fuel to never let up
But I'll be real
Hindsight's 20/20 right, right
Well if I could go back and do it twice
Maybe I would get it right
There's regrets heavy on my mind, right
Take me back to 2020
Bet I change everybody's life
Hindsight's 20/20 right
Well if I could go back and do it twice
Maybe I would get it right
There's regrets heavy on my mind, right
And I hate the fact I feel like
I'm wasting everybody's time
Some blogs supported, like 2DopeBoyz and DJBooth
And Rapdose and ArtistManifesto
And K1NG ELJAY and, you know
Other ones I'm definitely forgetting
