Promised - K Trap

Promised - K Trap Lyrics

[Intro]
(Ocho, Ocho)

[Verse 1]
Wear my jewellery set, now they're forcing friends
Couple men I grew with, probably won't talk again
Blame that bag I never had
Ever took an L and it made you decide to tell? Well we're sorta glad
Swear, it hurts the most, but they'll never know
I just left the show, now it's back to stretchin' O's
Best of both, I know, but it's feelin' much
Paragraph from shorty, said she ain't feelin' loved
Read like quarter of the text and that quarter had me stressed
Keep my closеst, I ain't walkin' with the rest
Pray I'm blessеd, tomorrow's the next test
Didn't reply, she sent a next text
Sorry, boo, I got too much on my plate
And I got seven days with this thirty-six of lake
And I got loads of hate, that I can't get away
But I was promised better days so I'm steady through the pain

[Chorus]
See, I was promised better days but I'm still waitin'
Sometimes I feel like I've been here for ages (Ages)
Battle with the word they call "Patience" (Patience)
And if rap don't work, it's back to basics
Kettle water, Borwicks and that cocaine
Thought I lost you but it's back, I'm okay (Okay)
Levelled up, they said they miss my old ways (Old ways)
Thousand racks, I told the beggars "No change" (No change)
[Verse 2]
Told my nigga "No", even though I could
'Cause he fucked up too much times and runs to me 'cause he knows I would
Forget the ice, how do you know I'm good?
Yeah, at times, might see me smile, deep down, it's wild
I was on trial, Mum and bro in court, won't know the sort
Never had the drive, I slowly walked
Met the sword, then I made paper moves
Now the whole estate's like "Take me through"
Ever had the press and blessings 'cause you're makin' so much progress?
Still, I ain't nowhere blown yet but don't think they get it
How you want this bag before it's been secured?
I can't tell you what's it like 'cause I ain't been before
Calm steps away, Pyrex and yay
And when them L's hit me hard, I just stretch away
And when there' somethin' I'm unsure of, I just step away
'Cause I can't block my blessings, I was promised better days

[Chorus]
See, I was promised better days but I'm still waitin'
Sometimes I feel like I've been here for ages (Ages)
Battle with the word they call "Patience" (Patience)
And if rap don't work, it's back to basics
Kettle water, Borwicks and that cocaine
Thought I lost you but it's back, I'm okay (Okay)
Levelled up, they said they miss my old ways (Old ways)
Thousand racks, I told the beggars "No change" (No change)
[Outro]
See, I was promised better days but I'm still waitin'
Sometimes I feel like I've been here for ages
Battle with the word they call "Patience"
And if rap don't work, it's back to basics
(Ocho, Ocho)
