17. Lyrics by Jaylenoraps

2018

[Hook]
I'm 17 but I'm making all these big moves
It's my year and they looking like who you
Young teen from Raleigh NC tryna make it in the game without Cursing and tattoos
On top of that I don't really need a chain to
On top of that I would rather use my brain to
On top of that I would rather use my manners like if someone Open up the door for me I'm saying thank you
I'm 17 but I'm making all these big moves
It's my year and they looking like who you
Young teen from Raleigh NC tryna make it in the game without Cursing and tattoos
On top of that I don't really need a chain to
On top of that I would rather use my brain to
On top of that I would rather use my manners like if someone Open up the door for me I'm saying thank you

[Verse 1]
I rap like this, I don't think they wanna get into a fight like this
I'm not even sure that they can have a mind like this
Making discoveries everyday like a scientist
Let me start by making another hypothesis
I think they say the things they say cause they can't think like this
I don't think they got the moves so they can't play like this
Looking like the Titanic that's why they go sink like this, for real
Ya'll be tryin not to fry but it's okay
Pretty soon you won't be keepin up with my pace
Taking my time but I'm still getting first place
I made it home and ya'll still at the first base
And I've been working the studio is my work place
Taking it back to the city cause that's my birth place
And ya'll be acting like little kids in the third grade
Cause ya'll probly heard that my album droppin on Thursday

[Pre-Hook]
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey

[Hook]
I'm 17 but I'm making all these big moves
It's my year and they looking like who you
Young teen from Raleigh NC tryna make it in the game without Cursing and tattoos
On top of that I don't really need a chain to
On top of that I would rather use my brain to
On top of that I would rather use my manners like if someone Open up the door for me I'm saying thank you
I'm 17 but I'm making all these big moves
It's my year and they looking like who you
Young teen from Raleigh NC tryna make it in the game without Cursing and tattoos
On top of that I don't really need a chain to
On top of that I would rather use my brain to
On top of that I would rather use my manners like if someone Open up the door for me I'm saying thank you

[Verse 2]
Seventeen, seventeen, seventeen
I don't wanna be ya'll I just wanna be me
I don't wanna be him I don't wanna be he
I don't wanna be she I just wanna be me
Man, January eighteenth
Man, Ya'll can't do it like me
Man, One two three, A B C D E F G
Aye, I just chill and record
I'm just tryna make it big so I can go and perform
And I can, make a difference in the world today
Despite the things that they be saying the world today I mean
2018 gonna bring me big things
2018 gonna bring me big plans
2018 gonna bring me more fans
2018 gonna be my best friend yea

[Pre-Hook]
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey
I'm seventeen but I'm
Hey

[Hook]
I'm 17 but I'm making all these big moves
It's my year and they looking like who you
Young teen from Raleigh NC tryna make it in the game without Cursing and tattoos
On top of that I don't really need a chain to
On top of that I would rather use my brain to
On top of that I would rather use my manners like if someone Open up the door for me I'm saying thank you
I'm 17 but I'm making all these big moves
It's my year and they looking like who you
Young teen from Raleigh NC tryna make it in the game without Cursing and tattoos
On top of that I don't really need a chain to
On top of that I would rather use my brain to
On top of that I would rather use my manners like if someone Open up the door for me I'm saying thank you
