Used to Be is a staple on RAAHP. After the slow melodic introduction, this track boosts the urgency on the album with elite lyricism and intentional messaging. The hook is ghostwritten verbatim from the old-school church expression, "I may not be where I want to be, but I thank God I'm not where I used to be." The verses beautifully illustrate reality for the average young black kid growing up in any major city.
