Lyrics JAIKEDA – Future Tense // Getting Started | New Today Lyrics

verse 1
2020 vision, but it’s 2021
I don’t know what’s coming next, but i hope i’m having fun
To be honest, i’ve been writing lyrics since the 8th grade
Had no confidence, i still don’t have it, step out of the cage
And i realize, everyone’s the same
Too afraid to show some color, well, who is there to blame?
Is it you?
Is it me?
Are they jealous?
Are they cain?
Cause they’re hating if we’rе able so they talk down on our names
Yеah we’re able to express ourselves in our way
And they can’t, (why?)
Cause that’s how they were raised
They don’t understand it’s a process so we’re laughed away
Afraid of this, i hid ’til i realized i was born to stay
I can lead the way, i pick up the crown
Hip hop has been dead for a while, there’s no one around
Here i go again, yeah i know you call me pretentious
When i know the greats then tell me who’s really senseless

chorus
Just getting started
Later down the line, let’s see who makes it the farthest
I’m getting started, just getting started
I might need some time, tell me where the audemars is (i’m getting)

verse 2
I’m getting all my shit together now
In a couple years, i know you’ll be asking how?
How the car works, how collabs are, how the fast car make the locals think it’s vin diesel or nascar?
How the money flows?
How the new hoes?
How the old hoes? (what?)
How do you have zero?
How the new phone?
How the new throne?
How the move from home turned you into a hero?
Asking “how the? how the?” like a greeting from the south
Calling me a hero, but you better watch your mouth
But we went to the same high school so like one more question?
Fine, but you know when i was a senior, you were a freshmen
How the hell did you get your shit together so good?
I wish i could tell you if i could then i would
When i think hard, it boils down to this
How hard are you willing to chase a wish?

chorus
Just getting started
Later down the line, let’s see who makes it the farthest
I’m getting started, just getting started
I might need some time, tell me where the audemars is (i’m getting)
