You liked me till' you heard my shit on the radio
|
Well I hate to say but pop ain't going solo
|
You liked me till' you heard my shit on the radio
|
But now I'm just too mainstream for you, oh no
|
You liked me till' you seen me on your t.v.
|
Well if you're so low below then why you watching?
|
You say good things come to those who wait
|
I've been waiting a long time for it
|
|
I remember the days
|
when I was so eager to satisfy you
|
and be less than I was
|
just to prove I could walk beside you
|
Now that I've flown away
|
I see you've chosen to stay behind me
|
and still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself
|
|
You say your quest is to bring it higher
|
Well I never seen change without a fire
|
But from your mouth I have seen a lot of burning
|
But underneath I think it's a lot of yearning
|
Your face, the colours change from green to yellow
|
To the point where you can't even say hello
|
You tell me you'd kill me if I ever snob you out
|
Like that's what you expect from me, like that's what I'm about
|
|
I remember the days
|
when I was so eager to satisfy you
|
and be less than I was
|
just to prove I could walk beside you
|
Now that I've flown away
|
I see you've chosen to stay behind me
|
and still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself
|
|
It's so much easier to stay down there guaranteeing you're cool
|
Than sit up here exposing myself trying to break through
|
Than to burn in the spotlight (open fire!), turn in the spitfire (open fire!)
|
Scream without making a sound (open fire!), be up here without looking down
|
(open fire!)
|
because we're all afraid of heights
|
|
I remember the days
|
when I was so eager to satisfy you
|
and be less than I was
|
just to prove I could walk beside you
|
Now that I've flown away
|
I see you've chosen to stay behind me
|
and still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself
|
|
Myself...
|
|
Why ya hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me so,
|
leave me down down down down low
|
leave me down da down down da down da down down down low...
