Looking Back Lyrics by Imkweli

DayQ (artist:imkweli)

2020

Call me Ddot but I go by imkweli
Scronny young fellow left everything now he on his own no provolone starving at night demon after him never lost a fight

Looking back at the brighter days I never thought life was change until I grew older

Become more cautious about decision making persist with the ink to the pen it it’s another way I can express life through the black of my skin

Black lives matter If the skin darker than my own momma or father that couldn’t raise me right the right way so I YouTube everything got it the right way

Lesson were learned morals were turned into evil stressed over little things turned into smoke

Heavy my problems away

Only left the mind came back stronger the next day

Grew anger to the pain lash out at anyone at any moment but I had a new opponent

Myself never seeked any helped could deal with it on my own

Pick up $20 that I stole from my mom alone fed my marijuana preference

Never thought it would be me found a new love smoking green drugs

Stomach thoughts fed my whole day never hungry tummy always rumbling

Hated love but that’s the only thing that kept me alive I always despise it didn’t know where my mind went

Thoughts about suicide crossed the mind everyday
How would I tell my own children I survived that

Find a new path 10 toes right behind that
Not a black woman I can’t thank
You through sleeping on a couch
Providing food for the next day

Gifts were always priceless without a job or a license to buy one of my own
Made it my myself
All of the love and affection I felt I hand it to you
I know roads are rough but you’ll get through

New era that I’ll learn to step over the past
Stop crying because your boy made it through with class room

New chapter in life stop showing me bikes i ride skateboards no more iPhones I want me an android
