[Chorus: Jay Ant]

Trying to know what the future holds

But it ain't for you to know

I treat my self like the usual

But it ain't for you to know

I'm thinkin' clear, never losin' hope

But it ain't for you to know

Tell myself like usual

But it ain't for you to know



[Verse 1: G-Eazy]

Sometimes I gotta be dolo alone, just walkin' around

Young Gerald, young Charlie Brown

Some sh*t's better to keep to yourself than say aloud

Some sh*t you see and they don't, so I simply jot it down

It was written, had the vision as a youth that I would make it here one day

A flight to the top, cop a one-way

But looking out the window on the subway, 16, slapping Mac Dre

Somehow I always knew it'd be that way

I felt this so clear it's like a rode a time machine and I saw it

I paint the picture and draw it, I fold it up in my wallet

Keep it with me everywhere I go just as a reminder

Told myself every time I get discouraged or tired

I got greatness inside of me

I go against the greats until they tired of me

I've heard it all, nothing surprises me

See, I'm the one, I'm the anomaly

But never mind me, I'll just be up over here killing 'em quietly

You know?



[Chorus: Jay Ant]

Trying to know what the future holds

But it ain't for you to know

I treat my self like the usual

But it ain't for you to know

I'm thinkin' clear, never losin' hope

But it ain't for you to know

Tell myself like usual

But it ain't for you to know



[Interlude: G-Eazy]

Yeah, and I heard 'em say

Nothing's ever promised, tomorrow or today

From the Bay, like 40 and Dre

So Imma do it in a major way

I said, I heard 'em say

Nothing's ever promised, tomorrow or today

From the Bay, like 40 and Dre

Chasing dreams, it's the only way



[Verse 2: E-40]

I'm still here, remember these lyrics

And when I'm dead and gone, I'll be there in spirit

Don't let 'em run my name in the mud, don't let 'em smear it

Just pour some Rossi out, go ahead and tear it

One of a kind, no copy

Tell your grandchildren's children 'bout me

Tell 'em I was the illest

Let 'em know I spit the realest

Went from pennies and nickels to large amounts

Kept it in the hood, where it counts

Never was them, always was him

Had to prove myself, time and time again

Just when they thought it was it, he back with another hit

We brought the Bay to the rest of the world (who was it?)

E-40 and Gerald



[Chorus: Jay Ant]

Trying to know what the future holds

But it ain't for you to know

I treat my self like the usual

But it ain't for you to know

I'm thinkin' clear, never losin' hope

But it ain't for you to know

Tell myself like usual

But it ain't for you to know



[Verse 3: G-Eazy]

So where I go from here?

I did the most you could possibly pack into a year

Now I can either fall off and completely disappear

Or, I can move up to the highest tier

Conversations with Gerald, standing in front the mirror

Ask myself like "f**k the bullsh*t, what you really fear?"

We all want to be understood, hope they hear us clear

But that sh*t never happens everywhere

So I just do me on my "f*ck the world" sh*t

I'm riding through the town listening to Earl's sh*t

Been trying to lift the Bay up, I could probably curl it

I learn from the legends, they tell me "you're it"

So I always maintain and try to stay sane

But, just do you, give a f*ck what they sayin'

We artists are all alike, we feel the same pain

You want the whole world? You want the same thing



[Chorus: Jay Ant]

Trying to know what the future holds

But it ain't for you to know

I treat my self like the usual

But it ain't for you to know

I'm thinkin' clear, never losin' hope

But it ain't for you to know

Tell myself like usual

But it ain't for you to know
