Pre intro: not my first rodeo
Intro: been down this road before
Verse 1:
This not my first rodeo
Been down this road before
Only been here a short time
But my experiences
sky rocket thru the door
Brought me wisdom and more
Learned how people move
Learned how people work
Most running off the same playbook
Once you learn it no longer works
(That part)
That part again
This not my first rodeo
Been heard the worst of the worst
Learned how to trust myself
Know how to make shit for me work
I keep people at a distance
Due to all of my past
Not the type for surface level
I want my shit to last
(On god)
Never really had a clean break from anyone
Once attached , they attached
Then it’s always something crazy shit
If and when I pull back
(Crazy work)
Always play my part
Don’t like to live in regret
People learn too late
I’m nothing like the rest
Hook:
This not my first rodeo
(No no)
Been down this road before
(Plenty times for sure)
Tend to attract those who can be
Rough around the edges
But Somehow soften at my door
(That part )
I’m soft but I got boundaries (straight up)
Yeah, I know where I stand (no chase)
I’m selective with my people
But I’m solid when I am
We balance one another
Somehow that’s always the theme
They don’t always make it easy
When it’s time to let me leave
(Crazy work)
That part
That part again
I don’t chase
I don’t cling
If it’s real, it’ll remain
This not my first rodeo
Been down this road before
Verse 2:
Been down this road before
I’m sure there’ll be more
Don’t really care for all the drama
But drama finds my door
(Always)
People hate when you closed off
But not everyone deserves to know more
Most people talk behind my back
But different energy to my face
(They never do)
Cuz they don’t really got a real reason
jealousy and hate leaking through
That part
People don’t never have an issue
Until they’re not in my space
Been down this road before
Some people care too much what others think
I learned through all my experiences
People’s opinions are never that deep
Still gonna be me
Set in my ways
But I’m easy to relate
Ion act like I never been there
Nah I’ve had plenty shit on my plate
That part
That part again
I’m a good friend but I’mma
pull back if the energy is fake
I’m misunderstood because
I’m the type to stay to myself
I need my space
I feel energy times ten
Took years to understand
I’m just different
I’m just me
And Imma always stand on my ten
