You Not the Same - Slowed Down Version - TileKid

Journey back home find myself lost in my shoes And nobody tells you when you grow up you got more to lose Thoughts of all the missteps, memories engrained in my heart Can't believe I found the light, raised in the dark Supported by my elders Man I swore I'd never tell this But it can be bleaker on the other side Of white picket fences, missing love on the inside Inside, can you hear this? Can you feel this pain and confusion When your parents start to lose it Locked up in the closet of your worst nightmares Dreams of a happy family it was never there Even though we had the food up in our bellies High school kids sole connection on the cellies Broken homes Mommy and daddy called it quits And we feel so alone... God I hope it's the not the same when we get older This pain got me feeling like I can't even go home It's harder to cope if I'm sober Try to forgive my name I'm not the same Truthfully I don't really wanna put this out Guided by faith but I'm clouded by doubt Sometimes when the dark gets the best of ya You gotta pick ya head up and really know what you're about Pushing so hard through this life that I'm living The pain come before all the blessings I'm given It's true, It ain't about you All the time, kids missing their nutrition in the lunch line In the meantime we've been working on our punch lines More to life... generation perplexed, escape reality Slave to corporations and anxiety What you gonna say when your time come? What did you contribute, how hard did you try son? One more shot try to dull the pain And find out what we're missing dry out the rain like... God I hope it's the not the same when we get older This pain got me feeling like I can't even go home It's harder to cope if I'm sober Try to forgive my name I'm not the same Not the same You won't see me here again Keep progressing under pressure Pushing through the pleasure and the pain
