Somethings that you will never change for nothing
I see you drowning in the substance
Forget about the things you love, dance
Wasting so much of your time on no things
I see you drowning in the ocean
Like you don't ever catch the wave, dance
I know that you done crashed and found new luck
You hold on to the past and now you stuck
The spirit in your glass could change you up
Now I'm far from perfect but right now it's you
Mama's convinced you went right back to school
Turns out that you had us all April fooled
Trust me I know, cannot be forced
Say what you want, this ain't no joke
And it's hard to be visible
When your mind stuck on critical
Something, something about you
Gives me nothing, nothing that I'll use
Truth is, truth is I'm like you
I see right through, I see right through
You and I never tried to be much closer
Twenty six, forty five, now we much older
Same old story, nothing ever changes
Another life story (Something about...)
You and I never tried to be much closer
Twenty six, forty five, now we much older
Same old story, nothing ever changes
Another life story (Something about...)
Listen I can tell you about my ego when it trips and
Moments you get stubborn and I call you Scottie Pippen
Feels like there's no other way to get your full attention
Truth is always tatted on my tongue and I express it
Life is always shorter than my temper
Hate to see you bursting every time you feel the pressure
Nothing you've accomplished every time we see December
Wasted all your time with the oppressor
Wasted all your time with all these niggas that don't miss ya
Might just need to pop 'em like the top of my liquor
Troubles made to witness all our beautiful sisters
Fall back, get side tracked, they swallowed by Joburg
You and I never tried to be much closer
Twenty six, forty five, now we much older
Same old story, nothing ever changes
Another life story (Something about...)
You and I never tried to be much closer
Twenty six, forty five, now we much older
Same old story, nothing ever changes
Another life story
Something, something about you
Gives me nothing, nothing that I'll use
Truth is, truth is I'm like you
I see right through, I see right through
