lirik lagu andy mineo - i swear, i wanted to like this andré album
[verse 1]
i swear i wanna like this andre album
when they announced it i got all excited
this artist i’ve admired is finally outta hidin’
somehow he got inspired, then decided to break his silence
but he told us he’s stayin’ silent
playing flute instead of rhyming
i’m like, “yeah, okay that’s cool”
i’m behind it, somethin’ different
but somethin’s missin’, it felt way off
felt like watchin’ jordan play baseball, then i got suspicious
like, d~mn, andré, did you let yo’ inner critic win?
did you convince yo’ self that you isn’t him?
do you got hard drives full of hiddеn gems?
locked behind computеrs and won’t let us in?
and listen
you don’t have to, yeah i get it man, but who am i suppose’ to listen to
lil’ who?
or another rapper with ghostwriters
who only asset is that they visual
with all due respect, i’m sorta p~ssed at you
’cause i been hearin’ things you said in interviews
it’s got me a bit confused, saying you too old to bring somethin’ new
that isn’t true, but who am i s’posed to listen to?
i’d rather hear from an old you, then just be stuck with hearin’ all yo’ old tunes
but who am i?
just one of your pupils, who got student pride
sometimes it feel like you dead, but you alive
i just pray before the day that you truly fly
you feel like the gift god gave you was fully utilized
maybe this is foolish pride, like, what do i think i’m doin’?
i’m just a stranger out here asking this man for new music
and you never listen to n0body but yo’ self so i know this is useless
you dropped “hey ya!” at the height of g~unit, man that’s gangsta
you the ultimate non~conformist
you kept pushin’ boundaries explorin’, you taught us normal is borin’
that’s the thing i love about you the most, you re~invented yourself
you raised the bar in what you expect in yourself
but maybe the bar got so high that you can’t even reach it
unsatisfied, start calling all yo’ heaters decent, then you don’t release it
honestly it’s hard to believe, ’cause i heard all yo’ features
you got k!ller mike a grammy, man that joint was recent
and look, no disrespect to him either but dawg you tweakin’
this all speculation, i don’t know the reason neither
but my guess is that it’s pressure
and i know i’m soundin’ critical
but if i’m comin’ clean, this got more to do with me than it is with you
’cause you’re an artist i aspire to
now you gon’ and retired
i think my deepest fears is that i see myself inside of you
hippin’ three years and i been quiet too
and all this time i been inside the stu’
everything i cook up feel meh, like it’s kinda cool
got me really thinking like, d~mn, maybe my time is through
and you got nothing left to prove
i’m still playin’ festivals, to pay my team, and fund the dreams that i’m yet to execute
and everyday i’m less enthused to write a rhyme or bless the booth
every thought ain’t fresh and new like when i was 22
when music was the place i would express it through
i was fightin’ for respect, rappin’ like the rent was due
i wanted the world to love me, now a couple friends’ll do
tell the truth, are these the thoughts you had?
is where you at, where i’m headed too?
so every year that i ain’t heard from you
the insecurities i’m workin’ through, feel like for sure they true
so please don’t take it personal
but you moved on from rap, and i don’t think i got the courage to
[outro]
keep yo’ heart, three stacks, keep yo’ heart
share yo’ art, three stacks, share yo’ art
share yo’ thoughts three stacks, share yo’ thoughts
(maybe i’ll start, three stacks, maybe i’ll start)
maybe i’ll start
