Story Behind The Song
This lyrics of this song is something I've wanted to tell an ex-lover of mine but my success haven't been sufficient enough to do so.
Song Description
This song is an emotional power house that contain mixes from blues, rock, rap and hip-hop. The background instrumentals that supports the bass roar like thunder as it drives home the realness of the situation at hand. The piano and guitar rips it's own course through the "fear felt" lyrics and as the artist voice sounds so treatening from the anger within. The story-line is about his "live-in" girlfriend, who left him because she felt he would never become successful at anything. But after he achived some parts of success, he gets a phone call from her. And the song starts from that call.

Lyrics
[TheVerse]
What do you think of me now pretty Mama?
What do you think you?re doing calling me now?
Did you think I was home, just sitting there waiting
You ain?t never had a answer for me and that is no lie
But we can meet, we can talk, reminisce on everything
And we can lie and we can laugh, bring things up that?s in the past
And then, you can try to blame me for everything
But it don?t mean a thing, I treat it like a dream
What is it you really need, stop holding me up girl?Eoooeoooeooo
Look at me now, breaking it down, my head?s in the clouds, thinking loud
Figured it out, now look at me now
You?ll never know, you ain?t been told?So ohoooo
You can laugh, you can cry, you can change things in every lie
Look at me, living the dream, clean machine, on the scene
Didn?t you tell me these things would never happen
Doubt if you gonna stop me now
Maybe you didn?t believe me then, maybe you better believe me now
How you gonna change your game, if you don?t know how?
You decide, we can ride, cruise the Benz by the ocean side
The sun, the breeze, the birds, the trees. Wanna ride?
We can ride, we can talk, we can talk about everything, but keep it low now
I don?t wanna have..to..to..to change my mind, I need a mind that understands
What goes around, come around, swings around, turns around, change around
Creeps around, til there?s no more love left in town and that is why you?re feeling down
That?s the way they do when they lay you down, play you down
Don?t really really need you now.
But you can fly, you can try, don?t deny, you?ll get over everything
And when! You?re in control, you can deal with anything
You can rock, you can roll, you could slide with everything
But No! No! No! I heard it all before
Auun..aunn boomerang. Oh no..boomerang. Auun..auun boomerang
You?re the one who learn me my lesson and why I gotta be all of that
You can blame everything on a little bit of anything
You can change but even then, you can?t change what?s ?never been?
It?s a game that you can?t win
You and me, lived a lie, I know you loved another guy
You can breath or you can lie, but ain?t no way that you can deny
We can talk, this ain?t no test, there?s no stress about anything
If you confess, forget the rest, we can breath and walk away
If you decide, to deny, you go head and live your lie
Dead or alive you?re living a lie, I can?t see why
You?re wasting time, caught in a bind, giving away the grind
The story?s old, I already know
You can ?play-like? you don?t know what I?ve been told
You can play in any ?mind-game? that you control
You can cry, I already know don?t tell no lie
And if you think you?re gonna play with my head
And if you think you?re gonna lay in my bed
And if you think you?re gonna call me and beg
And if you think you?re gonna change what I said
And if you think you?re gonna do it to me again
Well Baby?You?re stone, high, hepmotized
I see the meter running in the back of your mind
Good luck! No other mother..gonna deal with your type of stuff
You?re clean, you?re sharp but the wheels has stopped, take it easy baby
You can fly, you can try, you?sa fly girl ?any-high?
You can run but you can?t hide and there?s no way I?ll live another lie
Dam shame, feeling no pain, running yo?game, taking no blame
With nothing to gain, the same old thang, you?re vain
You?re lame, you?re ruinning my name
You can fly, you can try, you?sa fly girl ?any-high?
