[Hook]
I miss the old me
I miss the old me
Life is all about making moolah now
I can't go back to the one i was
Ain't no turning back ain't no playin' 'round
Pain grows when you are a man in the house
Mama need' foods, mama need' clothes
And I'mma make she gets all [Em]of those
So now Listen to [C7]my [A]tɾade mark and
Stay out of my [A]way don't mess with tɾade
Ndo fara na message
Muhulu aw'thivhei ua fhira kha passage
[Verse ¹]
Ndi Kha tɾade athi todi ni tshi i ɾuin
Cuz i got [Fm7]people i look out for [Dm7]everyday and [Bm]night
My life's getting more serious i gotta fight
Nga pen na paper u tshidza from affright
Paving the way making the future bright
Ndi a tuvha murahu mara it's impossible u ndi humele
Kha time when life was [Am7]still easy ndi si busy
Now mind wanga u process zwinzhi ndi a nga ndi sa vha dizzy
Ndi tshi amba so it's because I got [Fm7]so many ɾeasons
Like bills to [C7]be [Am]paid, bellies to [C7]fed
Thitshena tshifhinga tsha dzi games, hu vho spana brains
Ndila nthihi fhedzi to [C7]free me from the chains
I'm walking, I'm on [C7]the journey
Can't let nobody stop me huna maanda kha my [A]message
Ndo hangwa na Awe we nda mu sia murahu

[Verse ²]
I miss the one I was [Am7]but I can't go back
Too many issues
So much tɾouble got [Fm7]my [A]heart off tɾack
I've been working everyday but still the bills just stack
And I sit and [Bm]wonder how long [Am]this will last
Will I always be [Am]scraping for [Dm7]change to [C7]get by
Lord I'm calling for [Dm7]change I need you [A7put your hand [Bm]in my [A]life
Cause all [Em]I worry 'bout now is my [A]destination, the dreams I'm chasing
Worried about what people will think if I don't ever make it
Gotta keep the pen to [C7]the pad won't look back
Living in the moment cause I know it doesn't last
Gotta get it while I got [Fm7]it don't you [A7know
Cause it'll pass me by if I don't show it man, I know it
I'm sitting here in tattered clothing hoping they don't notice that I'm hopeless
Working for [Dm7]the fam
They mean so much to [C7]me
Gotta get the green
I wanna make 'em [A]stɾuggle free
