Then Til Now by Jet

back then i had money, the times went fast,
an right now i'm straight broke, still hopin for cash,
it was said by a homie, these good days dont last,
an i thought man forget it, but that was the past,

it used to be drugs, it used to be crime,
now its just me, my crew fell behind,
half of us died, others locked in chains,
some disappeared, never heard from again,

live for the day, but now it's tomorrow,
now i'm a thought, corked up in a bottle,
an nobody says, that we had life easy,
and a storm's just a wind, that stopped bein breezy,

I used to slang bags, now i sing an take drags,
from nada to riches, now its back to rags,
my pants still sag, an I still flip rhymes,
an my eyes still drip, when i say goodbyes,

never know when ya times up, so try to relax,
i was raised in a warzone, not tryna go back,
everyday that i wake, i still wonder how,
i got where i am, from then til now-
