that's just me (feat. Dexx Rashad)
-lyrics-
Stayed on the grind
Taking my time
Look at all the results
Did this shit for my folks
Tell you a story you don't know
Coming up on the block
I was bangin Tupac (All Eyez On Me)
I was a little boy
Hot head, don't ask me shit
Flippin on dirty mattresses
Rat tails was the fashion then
If you ask me couldn't imagine this
Now I be fuckin on actresses
Bad lil thang
Getting off track
That's not the point
I'm just tripping off how life been going
Used to get into fights daily
They thought I was annoying
Mama said I ain't have common sense
Put my anger to the music
Made her rich
You ain't gotta worry no more
I told her this
Head to coast
Lungs full of smoke
Reminiscing back
When a nigga had to sleep
With the oven open
Just to stay warm
In the winter time
I stayed dedicated to the shit on my mind
Had millies in the focus
Split it like a Gemini
But that's just me
I cannot be you
Rather just be me
Been thru enough things
It has made me who I am
I don't do it for the 'gram
I put on for my family
But that's just me
That's just me
That's just me
I'm just me
I don't care what you gotta say
This is my life
This is my time
Look at all the results
Gather in for a toast
Tell you a story you don't know
Pulled up 'cross the globe
All the way to Brazil
Big balloons and confetti
Sailor Moon on my telly
Taking pic for the Myspace
Emo kids being sad as shit
Pokemon on my gameboy
Poke-bra for the homeboy
Finding love in the parking lot
Titanic in the backseat
Mom and dad were about to split
Smoked a cigg but I didn't quit
That's just me
I cannot be you
Rather just be me
Been thru a lot thing
It has made me who I am
I don't do it for the gram
I put on for my family
That's just me
I cannot be you
Rather just be me
Been thru a lot thing
It has made me who I am
I don't do it for the gram
I put on for my family
That's just me
Thats just me
Thats just me
I'm just me
---------------------------
this is an open diary flashback to my *emo* teenage days and the producer himself @dexxx tells his side of the story too.
this song was made in very beginning stages of this Chili journey. me and Dexx had just met and started making a lotta music for the fun of it. in fact this was one of the first songs I wrote for myself as opposed to writing for pitch. this track made me fall in love with songwriting again & made me rediscover myself as an artist. the rest is history.
