These Days - Connor Price

One hunnid

Yeah, these days I don't take advice from anybody

Who gon' tell me how to do it if they never did it right

These days I don't waste a minute of my time

Reminiscin' 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 doin'

I just do it if I fail, keep it pushin' '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 waitin' on me hopin' I'ma drop it

I feel like all this weight is on me, still, I'm never stoppin'

No, that is not an—yeah, pushin' myself to the limit

I set a goal, but still I never feel enough when I get it

'Cause when I go in, all these feelings overflow to the ceilin'

It's like a hole just opened up and I don't know how to fill it

I tell 'em, mm, 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 they image now, but that ain't me

Lotta rats takin' pics, that's why they say "Cheese"

Lately I've been feelin' like there's somethin' off

Lotta friends used to show me love, ain't showin' love at all

Yeah, only cheered me on when I was underdog

Runnin' up the numbers, everybody keep on runnin' off

Funny how they wanted me to win until I passed them

Now all of a sudden they be talkin' in the past tense

"He was this, he was that" like I changed up, hmm

Had a kid, I'm a dad, gotta make funds

These days everybody focused on the "he say" and "she say"

Actin' up and tryna make a scene like a screenplay

Try to be original but end up as a remake

Spend a lot of time thinkin' '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, mm

These days I don't take advice from anybody

Who gon' tell me how to do it if they never did it right

These days I don't waste a minute of my time

Reminiscin' 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 doin'

I just do it if I fail, keep it pushin' 'til I get it right
