Ways

[Hook:]
Don't wanna change my ways
I never change my ways (I wanna change my ways)
I wanna change my ways (Don't wanna change my ways)
I never change my ways (I wanna change my ways)
I wanna change my ways (Don't wanna change my ways)

Maybe I smoke too much
Maybe I drink too much
Maybe I'm too fucked up
Don't know what's the fuss.

Maybe I'm too far gone to rush
Twenty years trying to adjust
Don't give up.

I remember that day in the whip
When I told you you were having my kid
When you asked if I was ready for this
I laughed and just kept hitting the spliff
Acting like you ain't make no sense
But now my whole life just don't fit
I need to slow down and enjoy the trip
Got a couple homeboys that just don't exist
And the older I get the more on that list
So now I'm rushing back home
Yeah I'm rushing back home
Everytime I perform and turn the microphone on
Even watching my tone when I bitch and I moan
'Bout how I'm always gone, chasing shadows alone.

[Hook:]
Don't wanna change my ways
I never change my ways (I wanna change my ways)
I wanna change my ways (Don't wanna change my ways)
I never change my ways (I wanna change my ways)
I wanna change my ways (Don't wanna change my ways)

If I don't do it for us, well then for who?
Ain't got nothing left that I can lose, except you
You just want me to chill and come through
Maybe I'm too insecure and confused
Used to blame it on a whole range of bad news
And excuse what I did as the stuff of lost youth
Time's up, mind's made up, I'm punch drunk
Maybe I'mma let myself grow and wise up
All I know is I've been lost in silence
And hope that I ain't gone too long without guidance
And I admit that I've been out here wildin'
Trying to find myself before I find my timeless
Been out here chasing ghosts for mad moons
And trying not to get caught up paying dues
I try to fight it but it's time I choose
But I just don't know what to do.

[Hook:]
Don't wanna change my ways
I never change my ways (I wanna change my ways)
I wanna change my ways (Don't wanna change my ways)
I never change my ways (I wanna change my ways)
I wanna change my ways (Don't wanna change my ways)
