BIG LAX - jessie. Lyrics

Can't get a hold of my soul
It's raring to go
Back getting caught in the mold
Tired of doing what's told
Held everything I could hold
The pain's familiar
This must be the reunion of hopes lost
Took a risk and ended up broken and worse off
They parried what I threw and hit me straight in the hurtbox
I think it's a sweet spot
They aiming too specific man they missing on free shots
Ellipses, they don't know I'm plotting with each dot
They shoot and get kicked back, that's all with the same gun
I laugh cry reflect and scream bout life in the same song
Niggas swear they cool and try to get what the gang on
We don't tend to tolerate that shit where we came from
Lost a couple games but we was cool having played em
It's all about perspective same picture just frames on
I had a couple friends that didn't get that I hate em
I didn't understand they weren't my friends I became em
And I'm sorry for that
I didn't know the difference I was just trying to match
Just so there'd be no more days where I stayed in the back
Just so I'd be someone they could come to for a laugh
Lost myself in other people I'm sorry for that
I apologized for it twice because it ain't like me
Back then I couldn't understand why people ain't like me
I came around and understood that they just ain't like me
And that's cool with me
But I treated real people real foolishly
They saw beyond the mask and that shit wasn't fooling them
And I tried to absolve myself of all the scrutiny
Damn, I'm sorry for that
I didn't know the difference I was just trying to match
Just so there'd be no more days where I stayed in the back
Just so I'd be someone they could come to for a laugh
And what you said to me back then had me changing in fact
What you told me back then really made me adapt
Had to reflect on what you said just to break from the pack
If you ain't said that shit to me I wouldn't do this rap
If you ain't said that shit to me then I wouldn't be this LAX
Crazy thing about it is we was never that close
Crazy thing about it is I thought you thought I was gross
Crazy thing about it is you saw through me the most
You was getting treated the same I ain't see how you coped
All this time later respect what you chose
Cause like I said we was never close
But in a way I understood you the most
Damn
Cause all you had to say to me was "you ain't like them"
All you had to say to me was "you ain't like them"
All you had to say to me was "you ain't like them"
Why you acting like that, you ain't like them
Why you acting like that, you ain't like them
Why you acting like that, you ain't like them yeah
Hey
Why you acting like that, you ain't like them

Can't get a hold of my soul
It's raring to go
Back getting caught in the mold
Tired of doing what's told
Held everything I could hold
The pain's familiar
This must be the reunion of hopes lost
Took a risk and ended up broken and worse off
They parried what I threw and hit me straight in the hurtbox
I think it's a sweet spot
They aiming too specific man they missing on free shots
