Fresh off of his first Grammy nomination for his work on Tyler, The Creator’s CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST, the rapper dropped off his latest single, “safe then sorry (interlude).” Youngboy delivers a slow moody record, baring his soul and delving in his most vulnerable thoughts on wax.
[Chorus]
Gotta be hella cautious
Better to be safe than sorry
Can’t be out here unprotected, thoughtless
Still been healin’ from my pain, I’m all in
[Verse]
Used to be ready to die, but now I wanna live my nigga (Woah)
Still got some on side but all ain’t right ’cause half my niggas gone
Diamonds bought to shine, removin’ all the darkness in the sky
[Refrain]
No need to be scared, know we gotta all go
No need for me losin’ my head, ain’t no sorrow
Gotta be ready, ready for that call, though
I’m gon’ be ready, ready for to move on
We did not end strong, I just say it’s all my fault
Can you be pleasant? Crazy lady
Problems start to hit me and it cut deep like machetes
Im gon’ make it right, I’m headed home, you just gotta be ready
[Chorus]
Gotta be hella cautious
Better to be safe than sorry
Can’t be out here unprotected, thoughtless
Still been healin’ from my pain, I’m all in
[Refrain]
No need to be scared, know we gotta all go
No need for me losin’ my head, ain’t no sorrow
Gotta be ready, ready for that call, though
I’m gon’ be ready, ready for to move on
We did not end strong, I just said it’s all my fault
Can you be pleasant? Crazy lady
Problems start to hit me and it cut deep like machetes
I’ma make it right, I’m headed home, you just be ready
[Chorus]
Gotta be hella cautious (You better be ready)
Better to be safe than sorry (You better be ready)
Can’t be out here unprotected, thoughtless (You better be ready)
Still been healin’ from my pain, I’m all in
[Outro]
Used to be ready to die but now I wanna live my nigga (Woah, you better be ready)
Still got some on side but all ain’t right ’cause half my niggas gone (You better be ready)
Diamonds bought to shine, removin’ all the darkness in the sky (You better be ready)
