Yelawolf - 17 I See You
[00:14.80] Once upon a time not long ago
[00:16.92] My grandmother told me one day I'd change
[00:18.78] I felt like she was comin' down on me
[00:20.38] So I told her no, I'd be the same
[00:22.50] Not knowin' she was only tryin' to help
[00:24.36] Motivate me to excel and climb
[00:26.22] I was thinking she was the one trapped
[00:28.35] While I was stuck in a cage of my mind
[00:30.21] Man if I would've known what I know now
[00:32.07] I would've brought my head down under the cloud
[00:33.92] Told her thank you, and that I loved her
[00:35.78] But I was too cool and too damn proud
[00:37.91] What a fool I was, in fact
[00:39.77] I've changed so much now lookin' back
[00:41.36] I wish somebody I thought was cool
[00:43.49] Was as cool as she was, when she told me that
[00:45.35] I see you, the real you
[00:48.80] Tryna' cover up whats inside of you
[00:52.52] But everything you do is make-believe
[00:56.24] Yeah you're hot, but you're too cool
[00:58.89] I see you, oh
[01:06.86] I see you, oh
[01:14.30] I see you
[01:15.89] Baby girl don't know much about
[01:17.75] What it would take to become a star
[01:19.61] Hollywood is so far-fetched
[01:21.20] Too long of a drive in an old car
[01:23.33] Work everyday, but you barely eat
[01:25.45] Goin' over lines from a script you read
[01:27.31] Your boyfriend said it's a silly dream
[01:28.91] But how can you dream, when you never sleep
[01:31.03] You lookin' in the mirror and you're picturin' a light-show
[01:35.28] A glimpse in the lens of a camera
[01:37.05] Behind the scenes of life is a tightrope
[01:39.17] Yeah you walk a thin line, but a thin line is all you need
[01:42.89] A thin line in an indy movie
[01:44.75] Just a break for somebody to see
[01:46.35] The talent inside, the ballad of a diary you write
[01:49.00] The by and by is just another day for a normal girl
[01:51.92] But for you it's another day that you tried
[01:54.05] Aside from the fact, that you ride in the back
[01:55.54] Of a bus sometimes cause your car won't work
[01:57.93] Well maybe you should take that bus to L.A
[01:59.79] And put your dreams first, because...
[02:01.28] I see you, the real you
[02:05.00] Tryna' cover up whats inside of you
[02:08.45] But everything you do is make-believe
[02:12.44] Yeah you're hot, but you're too cool
[02:15.36] I see you, oh
[02:22.79] I see you, oh
[02:30.50] I see you
[02:32.09] Black and white
[02:33.15] Everything is black and white, broke-down simple and plain
[02:35.81] Most of us lost with a curious brain
[02:37.67] Curiosity is looked at as strange
[02:39.79] Stuck in a lane, but you can't complain
[02:41.65] While you look at another passin' train
[02:43.51] Wonderin' how, where's it going?
[02:45.37] Wishin' you were inside, packed and rollin'
[02:47.23] To another place but your time is chosen
[02:49.09] To live low-key cause your dream is stolen
[02:51.21] They don't understand, they believe in loathin'
[02:53.08] Loungin', loafin', waitin', hopin'
[02:55.09] Homie if the grass is greener, look, the gate is open
[02:58.81] You waitin' for God to release the ocean
[03:00.67] Sittin' on the beach, 2 feet from floatin'
[03:02.53] (But I see you)
[03:02.69] I see you, the real you
[03:05.78] Tryna' cover up whats inside of you
[03:09.50] But everything you do is make-believe
[03:13.48] Yeah you're hot, but you're too cool
[03:16.41] I see you, oh
[03:23.58] I see you, oh
[03:31.55] I see you
