I See You |
Once upon a time not long ago |
My grandmother told me one day I’d change |
I felt like she was comin' down on me |
So I told her no, I’d be the same |
Not knowin' she was only tryin' to help |
Motivate me to excel and climb |
I was thinking she was the one trapped |
While I was stuck in a cage of my mind |
Man if I would’ve known what I know now |
I would’ve brought my head down under the cloud |
Told her thank you, and that I loved her |
But I was too cool and too damn proud |
What a fool I was, in fact |
I’ve changed so much now lookin' back |
I wish somebody I thought was cool |
Was as cool as she was, when she told me that |
I see you, the real you |
Tryna' cover up whats inside of you |
But everything you do is make-believe |
Yeah you’re hot, but you’re too cool |
I see you, oh |
I see you, oh |
I see you |
Baby girl don’t know much about |
What it would take to become a star |
Hollywood is so far-fetched |
Too long of a drive in an old car |
Work everyday, but you barely eat |
Goin' over lines from a script you read |
Your boyfriend said it’s a silly dream |
But how can you dream, when you never sleep |
You lookin' in the mirror and you’re picturin' a light-show |
A glimpse in the lens of a camera |
Behind the scenes of life is a tightrope |
Yeah you walk a thin line, but a thin line is all you need |
A thin line in an indy movie |
Just a break for somebody to see |
The talent inside, the ballad of a diary you write |
The by and by is just another day for a normal girl |
But for you it’s another day that you tried |
Aside from the fact, that you ride in the back |
Of a bus sometimes cause your car won’t work |
Well maybe you should take that bus to L. A |
And put your dreams first, because… |
Black and white |
Everything is black and white, broke-down simple and plain |
Most of us lost with a curious brain |
Curiosity is looked at as strange |
Stuck in a lane, but you can’t complain |
While you look at another passin' train |
Wonderin' how, where’s it going? |
Wishin' you were inside, packed and rollin' |
To another place but your time is chosen |
To live low-key cause your dream is stolen |
They don’t understand, they believe in loathin' |
Loungin', loafin', waitin', hopin' |
Homie if the grass is greener, look, the gate is open |
You waitin' for God to release the ocean |
Sittin' on the beach, 2 feet from floatin' |
(But I see you) |
