Same Me

I said I'm still the same me
Got a little change it could never change me
It don't matter what you say cause you still ain't me, but
But ain't nothing you can do about it (yeah)
(Aye) I said I'm still the same me
Got a little change it could never change me
It don't matter what you say cause you still ain't me, but
But ain't nothing you can do about it (yeah)

Sometimes I wish I fit in
But I just like to stand out
All these struggles from within
They start to bring the man out
I pray my lord my soul to keep now
Let's see how it pans out
Something you should know bout me is
I don't take no hand outs
Cause I was always mister nice guy finishing last
Always got good grades when I would finish a class
So when I told my mom I probably wasn't finishing school
She just turned around and then she started whooping my ass
I was the only one of all my friends who listened to rap
So I'd play Nas on the bus and then I'd sit in the back
Some people told me that I need to turn my gift to a craft
Then I started clocking in and working shifts on the pad
Ironically that's where the shift is
Started feeling like I'm Raven I was having visions
It might've seemed impossible but I was on a mission
To throw some rocks up on my wrist so I could watch it glisten
Then I dropped they listened
Second drop they listened
I got a little cocky then my audience was missing
Started talking like I was the shit and now I'm tripping
So fuck a reputation now I'm bout that repetition
It's like they never pitching
Yet they always screaming batter up
Try to put that 2 and 2 together it ain't adding up
Playing cool cause I ain't really phased at people acting though
And then when I decide I had enough they start to backing up (aye)

I said I'm still the same me
Got a little change it could never change me
It don't matter what you say cause you still ain't me, but
But ain't nothing you can do about it (yeah)
(Aye) I said I'm still the same me
Got a little change it could never change me
It don't matter what you say cause you still ain't me, but
But ain't nothing you can do about it (yeah)

Bottom line I been through a lot of shit
To get where I gotta get
And go where I gotta go
And try not to contradict
But really I'm not convinced by any fronting
Cause then I end up in positions that I never wanted
And my angels see me struggling but the devil loves it
I'm quick to break the bank before I even bend a budget
Known to bless the mic at any time on any subject
I never rest, like Everest I'm peaking past the summit
So keep the glasses coming, and keep the liquor pouring
I'm just the man that all these local ladies been adoring
I wreck it like I'm Ralph but I always dress in Lauren
On the record I be wilding out without a warning
And from the morning to the evening I be out the way
Either cleaning out the kitchen or I'm making plays
No MIA but I'm flyer than a paper plane
But rest assure no matter what I'll always be the same, me (aye)

I said I'm still the same me
Got a little change it could never change me
It don't matter what you say cause you still ain't me, but
But ain't nothing you can do about it (yeah)
(Aye) I said I'm still the same me
Got a little change it could never change me
It don't matter what you say cause you still ain't me, but
But ain't nothing you can do about it (yeah)
