Lately Lyrics by $u$ jay

MAGENTA

2024

[Hook: $u$ jay]
Yeah, yeah, so clean, they love when I rap
But I know it's a trap, can't get to know the real me
I wish it wasn't this way, but tomorrow's
A new day So maybe then I won't act crazy

Don't get what's been happening lately I been rocking by my lone' daily
And I think I love it, I ain't even gonna pout
I just sit back and puff it
Ah Ah

[Verse 1: Claire Yotts]
I've been thinking lately
Been in my thoughts crazy

But I can't look back now, get these racks now
They still tryna hate me
Grinding on the daily
Staying up until three In the morning, just recording
Only way I feel free

[Verse 2: $u$ jay]
Yeah, lately I been on my alone shit
While they talking, I be thinking bout the motions
How I'm getting all this money, but I'm broken
And joking I just put my emotions in potions
Livе your life like you obey all thе notions
Sit back, I just touched all seven oceans

You at work and you grind for promotions
I'm at work and I sing for my tokens

[Verse 3: Claire Yotts]
Working so hard I'm gonna pass out
Flexing too much, gotta tap out
All these broke bitches, they just want clout
And my money tall, I can't even count it
Forgot I left her on read
Hit it in the morning as I'm getting out of bed
Hit it in the morning, what's left unsaid

Time to get that paper, baby, time to stack this bread
Only the beginning, only bigger things ahead
Look at all the tears and the blood that I shed
Swear that I'm gon' make it, I won't stop till I'm dead


[Hook: $u$ jay]
Yeah, yeah, so clean, they love when I rap
But I know it's a trap, can't get to know the real me
I wish it wasn't this way, but tomorrow's
A new day So maybe then I won't act crazy

Don't get what's been happening lately I been rocking by my lone' daily
And I think I love it, I ain't even gonna pout
I just sit back and puff it
Ah Ah
