Man I Used To Be

I'm half the man I used to be
It's gon' take some gettin' used to me
I used to think I had it all
But when you're up, all you do is fall
And that's why I'm
Half the man I used to be

Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma
Generational curses from daddy and mama
Heartbreak and lies, dirty soul ties
Mixed with addictions that clouded my eyes

I've been mistaken and taken for granted
And locked in the prison that I call my mind
And now that I've lived and I've learned
And I've built, and I've burned all these bridges, I'll leave it behind
And that's why

I'm half the man I used to be
It's gon' take some gettin' used to me
I used to think I had it all
But when you're up, all you do is fall
And that's why I'm half the man I used to be
Don't ask the reason I changed, ask yourself why you stayed the same

I couldn't sleep in that bed, I made
I needed more in life, I tried every remedy prescribed
Gettin' drunk every night, lettin' women waste my time

Now I'm in a phase, I can sleep alone, I don't ever chase, I got God
Lettin' go of pain that was never mine, tryin' to bear the weights, not my job
'Cause that's the man I used to be (I used to be)
And he ain't no use to me (use to me)

I'm half the man I used to be
It's gon' take some gettin' used to me (take some gettin' used to me)
I used to think I had it all
But when you're up, all you do is fall
And that's why I'm half the man I used to be
I'm half the man I used to be

It's gon' take some gettin' used to me
I used to think I had it all
But when you're up, all you do is fall
And that's why I'm half the man I used to be
