Ty

(album: Is It Tuesday Yet? - 2022)

Time tells all, no, it just don't lie
Coulda been dope, but you just don't try
Tried to sell a story, I just don't buy
Just don't buy, just don't buy
You wanna be the man, but I'm still that guy
Had to level up, and I'm still that high
But don't you worry, I'm still that Ty
Still that Ty, still that Ty

Time tells all, no, it just don't lie
Coulda been dope, but you just don't try
Tried to sell a story, I just don't buy
Just don't buy, just don't buy
You wanna be the man, but I'm still that guy
Had to level up, and I'm still that high
But don't you worry, I'm still that Ty
Still that Ty, still that Ty

That you knew from the playground (Play)
And they wanna hold me up, I stay down (Stay)
And you know Henny brave like the A-Town (A)
They should give me credit, no paydown (Pay)
And I show 'em how to do it, I'm teaching (Teach)
And I do this shit for Mass', I'm preaching (Preach)
When it comes to the stars, I'm reaching (Reach)
I protect my pockets, geeking (Screech)

Started from the bottom, foundation
A hundred and one flows like a Dalmation
It should've been a given like you found a brown Haitian
I'm 'bout to write it in stone, feeling like a mason
And I don't mean [?], baby, I'm a [?]
Fresh air, less hair, y'all rappers really being less rare
If you want the flow, it's a grand like Rio
Me, myself, and I, that's a trio

Time tells all, no, it just don't lie
Coulda been dope, but you just don't try
Tried to sell a story, I just don't buy
Just don't buy, just don't buy
You wanna be the man, but I'm still that guy
Had to level up, and I'm still that high
But don't you worry, I'm still that Ty
Still that Ty, still that Ty

Time tells all, no, it just don't lie
Coulda been dope, but you just don't try
Tried to sell a story, I just don't buy
Just don't buy, just don't buy
You wanna be the man, but I'm still that guy
Had to level up, and I'm still that high
But don't you worry, I'm still that Ty
Still that Ty, still that Ty

Bring it to your doorstep, kinda like Jeff
I ain't ever running out, we ain't talking 'bout breath
And I really want the mills, I ain't talking 'bout Steph
And these people asking why like 'Clef
Don't need a new ride, I just wanna provide
I don't wanna have to hide, I just wanna confide
And I know inside that I got my pride
But it's my guide, I'ma hit my stride like, "Ooh"

I've been making moves, you've been making plans
And I'm here to shake it up, I ain't shaking hands
[?] like I'm making vans
And I got the [?]
I'm the best kept secret if you still couldn't tell
Need heaven on earth, so I gotta give 'em hell
Haters wanna talk [?]
Yeah, it's going down like it fell, 'kay?

Time tells all, no, it just don't lie
Coulda been dope, but you just don't try
Tried to sell a story, I just don't buy
Just don't buy, just don't buy
You wanna be the man, but I'm still that guy
Had to level up, and I'm still that high
But don't you worry, I'm still that Ty
Still that Ty, still that Ty

Time tells all, no, it just don't lie
Coulda been dope, but you just don't try
Tried to sell a story, I just don't buy
Just don't buy, just don't buy
You wanna be the man, but I'm still that guy
Had to level up, and I'm still that high
But don't you worry, I'm still that Ty
Still that Ty, still that Ty
