Omen - Things Change lyrics

rate me

(Intro)

Yeah things change, things change

Things change nigga

(Verse: J. Cole)

Pick up the pen, time to write my sins away

Right my wrongs & then life goes on

Bitch be callin', then mistakenly niggas be fallin'

I fuck them & I leave them, foreva picture me ballin'

Wit cash that I neva had, I'm tryin' to stretch a million

Hopin' it foreva lasts, a fear of goin' broke

Cos' most niggas I know can barely make the car note

Can barely keep the rent paid, so I'm like Da Vinci

Paintin' pictures to last centuries since like the 10th grade

Carolina nigga wit New York plates

My template, switch states & swerve, mix-tapes were served

Get cake, absurd, & has big plates, preferred

Ya heard, my every word

Potentially can free us all, now that's a heavy burden

Sumetimes I'd rather get sum' head & watch my wealth grow

Cause things change, am I the same one ya fell for?

One side screamin' 'hell no' otha side holdin' on for dear life

Lately nigga I feel like, I ain't that young frail nigga that I used to be

Pardon my ways girl, I'm still gettin' used to me

Cause things change, I'm still gettin' used to me

I ain't that old shy nigga that I used to be

Bitches watchin' niggas plottin' on me, truthfully

Got to be careful what ya wish for, as ya can see

Things change

(Hook)

Things change, it'll neva be the same

I've neva been the one to settle, it'll neva be the same

(Yeah, things change)

Nothin' eva stays the same, it'll neva be the same

(Things change)

Nothin' eva stays the same

(Verse 2: Omen)

I told ya, raindrops do fall

But see, these clouds ain't the same that ya saw

My memory banks got sum' pain to withdraw

I am not afraid, I am not unscathed &

Don't use bandaids but, back in the days I was stressin' a grip

The only black in my class wonderin', where do I sit?

College campus too fast, now depression exists

Like I'm less than equipped, feelin' destined to quit

Then ya appeared, made me see myself without a mirror

See, I neva shared all the fears of my peers

I'm thinkin' about this African queen, luved her body

But she's mo' than just the back of her jeans, she's a magical dream

I feel hard wit such a frail heart

She taught me that Allah was just her way to spell God

And she was my American pie, so cultured

Her intelligence ahead of her time, looked at my face

And wit a smile called me Elephant Eyes, a secret nickname

Always seems to sit on my mind, cause I guess it reminds me of ya

Which reminds me of luv, which reminds me of truth

Which is all the above, recently liquors in my body, it's all on my tongue

I've changed into sumethin' they thought I'd neva become

Gave ya my food for thought, it's mo' than a plate of soul food

If ya want to change, got to escape yo own rules

Things change nigga

(Hook)
