lyrics
(Chorus)
I can't see your face
And I don't know who you are
And I can't take your place
But I can give you a fresh start
(Verse 1)
I'm so sick of
Talking about "I've had enough"
Fighting with the mirror while I call it tough love
He's telling me I gotta earn it all, learn it all
And "you can't trust anything only seen from the front"
Even when the bag's too heavy
The money's already left me
Only spending it on memories that the team is making
Never faking or telling a lie
Or listening to the blind behind glass eyes
Life lesson learned
Never had to fake sh*t
Money's like an opportunity when Davie takes it
But this is for the little kid who's living in the hallway
Looking for a friend who can treat him like one all day
They all say
Anywhere you go you got a place
Face to the ground but I'm stepping on a plane
Nothing's changed
I still remain
But me and Davie G. know that nothing will ever be the same
(Chorus)
(Verse 2)
I hit the hydro
I don't know why though
Why would I tell a lie when they know that I know
The truth
I'm praying for the moment when I know that it's mine, though
I'm tired
Mind kinda faded twisted up in desire
Italians telling me that Davie G. ain't a lier
I talked to her but all she wanted was to get higher
So I had to let her go
Can't let another girl be a part of my world
Find a way to make money cause money opens doors
I wish I could say to "come along"
But Davie G. needs to go work on some more
When they say "don't"
We ask them "perche no?"
Visions inside of my mind telling me where to go
You are now tuning in to Won't Say No
And That's (just) Me cause they told you so
(Chorus)
