Devastated - Joey Bada$$

I used to feel so devastated

At times, I thought we’d never make it

But now we on our way to greatness (greatness, greatness)

And all that ever took was patience

I-I-I used to feel so devastated (yeah)

At times I thought we’d never make it (yeah)

But now we on our way to greatness (yeah)

And all that ever took was patience (yeah)

Okay, just gettin' better each day

Stackin' that cheddar, cheesecake

Look up to the Lord, we pray, tryna be my best each day

And 'til I’m laid to rest we lay, yeah

'Til the time bein', we lit

Hopin' I don’t let it get all in my head

I don’t need the money just to say that I’m rich

Couple little honeys wanna get in my bed

But they used to run from me when I had nothin'

Now they want to fuck 'cause they see me stuntin'

Nigga came up off the hustlin'

Livin' in the lap of lux and I’m feelin' like the man

If you ain’t in my Chucks, then you wouldn’t understand
