Never Be The Same

(album: A Gift & A Kers - 2023)

Yo, I ain't know if you know this, but
I've been here, the whole time
And it's kinda for you when you think of it
And then it's vice versa

Jumped up again, high off my head
[?] used to laugh when my Nikes had them treads
But they couldn't take a step in 'em
Crazy how it plays out
They tryna get in music, but the music was my way out
You know the game how it hits with the buzz
But once you get the fame, you mix with the drugs
I put my blood, sweat, tears and life in this shit
So it takes a little hide when you ask why I quit
When I ain't even know if that's the plan, I need a break
What I got to take, it's a lot for me to face
I ain't gotta twist it, I know what come with this shit
You know how many arms I have saved from a slit wrist?
Now they hold me up, so I guess it panned out
You can't stand for nothing, then expect to be a standout
Take a pain pill, but you feel the pain still
If it make your brain chill, does it mean the pain real?
Wait, I ain't need the answer
It's like it's so five and we in the stolen lancer
No fucks given, it's like fuck the repercussions
Now I rhyme over percussions like it's nothing but it's something
'Cause they telling me it's medicine
You ever had a mother crying wishing that you met her son?
'Cause he just took his life, and my music is what he played heaps
Crying out her eyes, and I can't tell if she blame me
Don't label this as art, 'cause I come from the brain and I make this from the heart
We been dangerous since the start, popping bars in the commodore
Lucky I ain't lost a door 'cause no one knew they wanted more
I used to think I knew it all, but what I know now looking back that wasn't true at all
This is life, yeah, catch you in a chokehold
Only gonna see the brighter days if you don't fold

Never be the same as it was
It's been ages
Hitting different stages
Label me as dangerous
It's contagious
Probably why I caught you
I've been here every time your life fall through
Never be the same as it was
It's been ages
Hitting different stages
Label me as dangerous
I've been here, you've been there
But we still know
In Australia we got reasons I'm the real G.O.A.T

It's all about the rebound
If you ain't been done
You ain't feeling what it mean now
Try adapt when the mattress flat
And you ain't have no cash, yeah, who gon' have your back?
Now look, the answer to that
It's gonna open your eyes
And I just quoted in my rhymes
So you won't be surprise
Wait, don't blow your brains out
You hurting who you love 'cause they couldn't spot your breakdown
What we gonna take now, try and block the thoughts out
Falling out with friends, and forgetting what we thought about
Pick a poison, I'll mix 'em all together
I say it only getcha when you let it get the better
Stand up, don't you fall, hold me down now
I hit your heart on stage even if they block the sound out
Getting what I say, I won't mention it again
And you coming to the terms, it won't ever be the same

Never be the same as it was
It's been ages
Hitting different stages
Label me as dangerous
It's contagious
Probably why I caught you
I've been here every time your life fall through
Never be the same as it was
It's been ages
Hitting different stages
Label me as dangerous
I've been here, you've been there
But we still know
In Australia we got reasons I'm the real G.O.A.T
