These Days Songtext
von Connor Price

One hundred

Yeah, these days, I don′t take advice from anybody
Who gon' tell me how to do it, if they never even did it right
These days, I don′t waste a minute of my time
Reminiscing on regrets of the past, that's a different life
These days, I don't need nobody′s validation
These days, I don′t need nobody's invitation
These days, I don′t tell nobody what I'm doing
I just do it, if I fail, keep it pushing ′til I get it right

Yeah, these days, I been wide awake, I never sleep late
Got a lot to do, I treat a Sunday like a weekday
Do it for my son, set the table, I need three plates
Have my cake and eat it, baby, don't forget the cheesecake

Got it, yeah, they know I got it
Confidence contagious, so, the ones around me caught it
Everybody waiting on me, hoping I′ma drop it
I feel like all this weight is on me, still I'm never stopping
No, that is not a, yeah


Pushing myself to the limit
I set a goal, but still I never feel enough when I get it
'Cause when I go and all these feelings overflow to the ceiling
It′s like a hole just opened up, and I don′t know how to fill it

I tell 'em, look
I don′t make mistakes, the mistakes made me
Drop songs when I write them, I don't wait eight weeks
They too focused on the image now, but that ain′t me
Lotta rats taking pics, that's why they say cheese

Lately, I been feeling like there′s something off
Lotta friends used to show me love, ain't showing love at all
Yeah, only cheer me on when I was under-dog
Running up the numbers, everybody keep on running off

Funny how they wanted me to win, until I passed them
Now, all of a sudden they be talking in the past tense
He was this, he was that, like I changed up
Had a kid, I'm a dad, gotta make funds

These days, everybody focused on the he say, she say
Acting up and trying to make a scene like a screenplay
Try to be original but end up as a remake
Spend a lot of time thinking, ′bout how I′ma be great


I just stick to the plan
Yeah, I'm focused on the music, not a pic for the gram
Stay true to my supporters, yes, I did it for them
So, even when I get hot, never switch on a fan, mhmm

These days, I don′t take advice from anybody
Who gon' tell me how to do it, if they never even did it right
These days, I don′t waste a minute of my time
Reminiscing on regrets of the past, that's a different life
These days, I don′t need nobody's validation
These days, I don't need nobody′s invitation
These days, I don′t tell nobody what I'm doing
I just do it, if I fail, keep it pushing ′til I get it right
