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) |
