same.guy Lyrics

Surprise, surprise

I'm not who you thought I was

Can't take me nowhere

I don't know how to act

Or maybe I do but not actin' like it

Or maybe I just be actin' like it

And so if it all was just an act, then you were right to roll

And maybe I deserve an Oscar for ever givin' you hope

But really, manipulators don't deserve that much credit

You ain't gullible, I ain't tryna hear it

Really, you're just brave cause you saw the best in me and I took advantage

All the grace you showed me, I threw it back in your face

That's collateral damage

I'm a coward

You don't have to understand it, that's all the clarity you need

I self-sabotage cause I'm afraid

Jaded

I ain't thinkin' straight

Faded

Tryna get away from sober thoughts

It's a miracle you survived every time we ever fought

Run as far away from me as you can

I almost broke you but that really wasn't the plan

You can't fix me

And I know it's tearing you apart

Cause I'll never change, I wear my stripes with pride

And I know the game, that's why I try to pace my strides

It's a marathon

I never sprint but I'm quick off the blocks

I'm on the phone with Sprint, knowing you got me blocked

No surprise, you're sick of my shit

I think carefully before I disrupt your peace but

I'm selfish like that

And inconsistent

Knew I'd get you back cause you like persistence

But I'll never change so really what's the difference

And you'll never get far

And we ain't goin' nowhere cause I'll never go the distance

And really that's a bar if you listening

But you only see potential

So you're never really seeing me

And how I'm nothin' special

Just the same guy, repackaged

Say I turned over a new leaf but I just changed sides

Thinkin' I'ma change for you, that's suicide

Goin' back and forth pointlessly

Just to be back in the same spot

Take agency just as quick as you take shots

Say that you gon' ride for me

Really you're stuck in a cycle

You gotta be accountable, you knew that I was toxic

I came with a hazard label

So many red flags, thought you was at a blood convention

Can't even front though, me and you had a blood connection

Like we the same type

You said I changed but I'm the same guy

Really I think you thought I changed but I'm the same

I get it, you ain't mad that I changed

You mad that I didn't

And that's a tragedy, you thought we had potential

I just loved that you were holdin' me down

But I was holdin' you back

And maybe it's selfish but at least I got to hold you

And it meant everything

And I meant everything I ever told you

But I ain't the one you need to hear it from

Quit tellin' yourself the same lies

Run away girl, it's the same vibes

Cause I'm still where you left me

Chillin' with the same guys
