Papa Wes - History (His Story) Lyrics

It was back in 2017, they said I wouldn't walk the stage now, look at me
It's 2018 got these bitches bowin' down, I told them only time you up is if you staying down
2019 man that shit historical, I took the ball and went to chase, f*ck the oracle
A couple months later, niggas signed the dotted line, a couple weeks later, found out that my uncle died
The same week, man, my mama caught another stroke
I'm at the work house found out that my grandpa died
She lost her brother and her daddy in the same week
I was scared to tell the news it made me so weak
I know she strong cause she raised a nigga like me
My life is such a movie man, that shit ain't Spike Lee

It's 2020 now nigga, keep your mask on
I'm always told if you keep it don't you act wrong
You gotta keep your bag rights and your money long
And just keep your circle tight for the snake niggas
Now it's 2021 and we got that shit done
Man, I see that shit vividly, f*ckin' up the scenery
Pullin up in foreign whips, back to back, how it's supposed to be
And I went to see the world now my name coast to coast on me
Now it's 2022 and I'm payin' all my dues, they say that I'm an old soul, I be singin' all these blues
They say that I'm a paper chaser how I'm countin' all these blues
And I'm fightin' tax evasion, tell me who the one that's fraudulent

Now it's 2023 I'm on my pivot, man, I left, right
I used to catch the bus, now I'm catchin' all the domestic flights
I used to catch a girl cheatin' on ya, I ain't say nothin
Don't be focused on these hoes, pussy nigga, you'll be dead broke
They say my future bright, I say I know, yeah that's God's plan
Takin' all these notes and I'm chargin' all my energy
Climbin' up the charts, now I'm sittin' in the stars
They say they feel it in their heart when they listen to these bars, I'm in the fast car
