Used To Be Broke Lyrics by DatYunginG5

Making the Adjustment

2017

[Verse 1]
Ay, look, said, I hustle, I hustle, that's all that I know, huh
Ay, stickin' and movin', that's just how I roll, huh
Ay, never used crockpots, I cooked on the stove, huh
And life is a gamble, that's just how it go
Used to have a flip phone when everybody had the touch screens
Hammy down clothes, old shoes, smoked bunk weed
King of my city, yeah I know, it's a tough lead
No EA, no games, but I run leagues
I remember juggin', riding 'round the city
Didn't have no money so I had to go and get it
Money motivated, man, I'm all about my business
On a mission for a million, tryna make them 7 digits
[Hook]
'Cause I used to be broke, but that shit's in the past
I could show you the ropes, how to get money fast
I just live in the moment, how long will it last?
But the truth of the matter is, I don't know
So I'ma keep on chasing after this cash
'Cause I used to be broke, but that shit's in the past
I could show you the ropes, how to get money fast
I just live in the moment, how long will it last?
But the truth of the matter is, I don't know
So I'ma keep on chasing after this cash
[Verse 2]
My life done changed, used to rock fake chains
But not no more, hoe
Used to save my change, worked a 9-5 job
But I was still broke
Switched up my ways, killed off these snakes
Gotta keep that grass mowed
Keep my head held high even though they talk on the low
Yeah, I was an outcast who never fit in but just look at me now
A product of the streets, I hope I make my city proud
And when I reach the top, you know I'm never coming down
Recollect when I was on the mid, now all I smoke is loud
Now all I smoke is the loud, yeah
Put on for my city, I put on for my town
I put on for my town, yeah
[Hook]
'Cause I used to be broke, but that shit's in the past
I could show you the ropes, how to get money fast
I just live in the moment, how long will it last?
But the truth of the matter is, I don't know
So I'ma keep on chasing after this cash
'Cause I used to be broke, but that shit's in the past
I could show you the ropes, how to get money fast
I just live in the moment, how long will it last?
But the truth of the matter is, I don't know
So I'ma keep on chasing after this cash
