about

This song is about how I hope people will perceive my timeline when they look back on my career. I hope they see I came from nothing and made something of myself while making great music the whole way.

lyrics

"Future Nostalgia."

(Chorus)
This aint art this is something that I live
What you hear is a part of me that I give
Over time you'll love what I've done for ya
(And this is Future Nostalgia.)
As of now, you wont understand it
But down line you'll see that I planned it
This is for your Future Nostalgia

(Verse 1)
Man, this ain't a classic it's a masterwork
Not a masterpiece
Cause nothing's perfect
It'll never be
But it needs no tweaks
When complete what you will see
Are the flaws and all
And when you peep the bigger picture
You'll probably drop your jaw
Maybe not now or no time soon
But you'll come along
Same songs that you're now written off
You'll end up singing along
Like a Warhol hanging on your wall
In one of your halls
Inspiration from it you can draw
If you stare so long
Though if Andy was there with you
Looking at his painting I bet you
That you would call it a masterpiece
And he'd call it rough draft at least
That's what makes art such a beast
That's hard to tame
The painter and the surveyor wont see one thing the same
At the end of the day
With this tape I wouldn't change a thing
T'was hard call me a sadist but I enjoyed the pain
... What up, b lane, its time to get some monetary gain
Shouldn't wait for May 21st
To have cake like it's our birthday, ok!

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)
When they look on the timeline of my rhymes
They'll realized I inclined
Through the grind
Didn't come easy like a virgin fuckin'
Wont nothin' be idealized
My truth is bared for the eyes
Of those who criticize
Hate or love fuck just it discuss it
I know that I'm on to something
When I can't put my finger on it
But I can feel success so close to grip
I can almost palm it
One day I'll reflect on this
When I eat so much caviar I'm nauseous
Vomit need a colonic
And recall when poor I had dust in wallet
And I'm just being honest
I never lied try to lie in my phonics
It keeps me modest
Besides being fake makes new hardships
And we all know how hard life is
Look around see the high gas prices
Its surprising people even driving
Or the gas station owners aren't lifeless
But that's besides what I'm typing
Excuse me, I got a lot on my mid and
Some of it leaks out when I'm writing
Hard to bottle up all this lightning
Ya'll just think I'm rhyming nice words
But, man, this the tip of the ice berg
In the future this'll be your tutor
On Top Bill 101 let me school ya
I rep CMG, nigga
From the 'Roe, nigga
I'm five PERCENT
Call me GOD, nigga
LV on the beat and
Adam the engineer-man
Put the mic in my hand
Guaranteed that'll be a jam
Damn... I'm the motherfucking man when I stand in the booth
I don't need a band to help me boost
You don't need a fact check to know the truth
Everywhere I go I get salutes
It's like the whole world is now my troops
I'm like 2pac now I got the juice
Don't need to rap no more-- duece

(Chorus)
