Yelawolf - I See You lyrics

rate me

Yeah, once upon a time not long ago,

My grandmother told me one day I'll change

I felt like she was coming down on me

So I told her no, I'd be the same

Not knowing she was only trying to help

Motivate me to accept …

I was thinking she was the one trapped

While I was stuck in the cage with my mind

Man if I would have known what I know now

I would have brought my head down under that cloud

So to thank you and yea I love you

but I was too cool and too damn proud

what a fool I was in fact, I changed so much now looking back

I wish somebody I thought was cool

was as cool as she was when she told me that

I see you, the real you, trying to cover up

what's inside of you

but everything you do is make believe

that you're hot but you're too cool

I see you, whoa, oh,

I see you, whoa, oh

baby girl don't know much about

what it would take to become a star

Hollywood is so …

too long I've been driving in no car

work ..day but you daily eat

… but how can you dream when you never sleep

you looking the mirror and you picturing a light show

a glimpse in the lens of a camera

behind the scenes of life is a type role

yeh you walk a thin line, but a thin line is all you need

a thin line and an indy movie, just to break for somebody to see...

it's just another day for a normal grub

but for you it's another day...you try

aside from the fact that you ride on the back of a bus

sometimes cause your car won't work

but maybe you should take that bus to L.A.

and put your dreams first because

I see you, the real you, trying to cover up

what's inside of you

but everything you do is make believe

that you're hot but you're too cool

I see you, whoa, oh,

I see you, whoa, oh

black and white, everything is black and white

broke as... most of us lost with the curious brain

curiosity is little ...strange

stuck in that lane but you can't complain

while you look at another passing train

wondering how, where is it going

wishing you were inside, packed and rolling

to another place but your time is chosen

to live low key cause your dream is stolen

they will never stand, they believe in...

homie is the grass is greener, look, the gate is open

you … for got to release the ocean

sitting on the beach, 2 feet from floating

I see you, the real you, trying to cover up

what's inside of you

but everything you do is make believe

that you're hot but you're too cool

I see you, whoa, oh,

I see you, whoa, oh.
