Forgot I Was The 1? Lyrics

[Chorus: IAM3AM]
Started from the bottom, worked my ass off
I done seen my life flash, dawg
This shit is more than jewelry and fast cars
What if me callin' for help was my last call?
What if God didn't answer?
'Cause I took shit for granted
What if me wantin' a double R turned me to a phantom?
They went from callin' my phone to prayin' God doesn't answer
It's crazy how they switched up, I don't understand it

[Verse 1: Lil Tjay]
None of them trenches done got them when trouble, it come to you double when you try to dip
My mama taught me how to be a man, K-Murder taught me not to be a bitch
'Member that one day, niggas tried fight but I had the pipe, put that on my gift
In front of my mother, I let that shit go, too quick to blow a nigga in his shit
Imagine my mama hearing that I'm dead, through the most so mom don't see me like this
Gotta stay on my shit, I ain't focused on niggas, they kids
Young and focused on runnin' up hits
Duckin' these bids, that's what we live
Nothin' like you, that's we do
Everything platinum, you commenting "mid"
Who could relate?
I done did too much for niggas that turned around and spit in my face
And some days we was comin' up I thought this will never ever be the case
Fuck it, I'm here
I'm tryna fuck up some commas, no Pluto, feel like I'm in space
Give a fuck about nobody givin' me kudos, I rather a raise
[Chorus: IAM3AM]
Started from the bottom, worked my ass off
I done seen my life flash, dawg
This shit is more than jewelry and fast cars
What if me callin' for help was my last call?
What if God didn't answer?
'Cause I took shit for granted
What if me wantin' a double R turned me to a phantom?
They went from callin' my phone to prayin' God doesn't answer
It's crazy how they switched up, I don't understand it

[Verse 2: Lil Tjay]
I don't want shit but some money
I ain't chasin' no bitches, they ain't on shit
I know niggas hurtin', prayin' I'ma fail
But I'ma keep workin', make them niggas sick
Ain't no one helped me
Role models lookin' at me like I don't exist
Still livin' healthy
Ain't never needed nobody, just my gift
Look at my wrist
Thuggin', I did a lot of grindin' for the goals, had a circle was chill
They was thinkin' I was cold, suck my dick
Chilling 'round unloyal bros, didn't know 'til I slipped
Get one life, won't think twice 'fore I throw out my blick
All I know, funny cards was dealt to me
But I know, that I wasn't meant to be
All I know, blessed for sure, time to go
[Chorus: IAM3AM]
Started from the bottom, worked my ass off
I done seen my life flash, dawg
This shit is more than jewelry and fast cars
What if me callin' for help was my last call?
What if God didn't answer?
'Cause I took shit for granted
What if me wantin' a double R turned me to a phantom?
They went from callin' my phone to prayin' God doesn't answer
It's crazy how they switched up, I don't understand it
