[Verse 1]
Everybody asking, man what happened to the old you,
I reply man he is old news,
Codiac, I know what's best for me,
All Black Hearts is in the recipe,
I'll show you,
No sitting on the sidelines,
It's mafucking grind time,
I know who ain't coming with me when I get to prime time,
I been on a mission, haven't switched it up,
Niggas all around me steady giving up,
But homie watch me take that shit,
I been working all day,
Keep it going all night,
This my favorite shift,
Working OT, tryna be the CEO,
You don't know me, but I got that flavor that flows,
I'll kill your favorite flows,
And if we talking bout your favorite,
I'll make em all ghost,
And I don't mean to boast,
I been sleeping on the bottom,
Visualizing the top,
Once I get the picture in my sights, I go and don't stop,
I guess that you say that I'm the little engine that could,
Got loco motives when my train of thought is misunderstood,
If you standing where my feet have stood, you know it's no good,
Putting work in on the pavements bringing fire to wood,
I got that heat in my veins,
Can't picture me being tamed,
And if you've laughed at me before I'm glad you've been entertained,
But this a new show I'm putting on so welcome to the pilot,
If you ain't into that real shit, I don't suggest you try it.

[Hook]
What happened to the old times,
They used to love me for my old rhymes,
What happened to the old times,
Can't be stuck on what the fuck happened in old times,
Everybody round me said I won't do no good,
In the old times, little me was misunderstood,
In the old times, they telling me I won't do no good,
But I ain't worried bout the old times, homie I'm good.

[Verse 2]
Fuck the old times,
Got them things bundled up in old rhymes,
Check your history books,
I overload mines,
They really digging the flow,
Cause I'm a gold mine,
Told them I'm bringing the heat,
No need to hold mine,
I been here since '09,
You watching the growth,
Imma hop up on the scene,
Look like I did it before,
Don't even ask em who the kid is,
He watching you hope,
Watching you stay afloat till I decide I'm stopping your boat,
Codiac with two Cs, look like I did it again,
I can tell you this for once, I'm feeling good in my skin,
Shouldn't have placed your bets against me,
I knew you wouldn't win,
I'm a perfectionist,
And what you do is just sin,
But everyone is born a sinner,
I been one since the beginning,
I don't got no plans of stopping,
I'm rocking with no repentance,
I'm blocking you out my life if you leading me to a dead end,
And that's the truth, don't ask for shit if you ain't lend hands,
The pressure gets to me sometimes,
I feel I must admit,
Can't call it quits or even count the times I almost did,
Been dropping hints of self destructive motives when I spit,
But when I spit I'm feeling pretty proud when you listening.
