[Intro]
Yeah
Funny how somebody can know you your whole life
And still spend every year proving you never knew ’em at all
[Verse 1]
We came up together, same block, same dirt
I covered every lie while you doubled the hurt
You stole, then you swore everybody else was insane
And I stood there defending you, carrying your name
Every time you got caught, I was cleaning the scene
Making excuses for a man who was never sixteen
You got older, not wiser, just better at blame
Same broke mentality, just a different age
You called it survival, I call it a pattern
Every bridge that you burned somehow never mattered
Till the smoke cleared out and nobody stayed
Now you’re looking at the life that your choices made
[Hook]
Same old you, same old lies
Same dead road in a different disguise
Everybody moved forward, you’re still stuck there
Still blaming the world ’cause your future ain’t fair
Same old you, same excuse
Every hand you were given, you found a way to abuse
I kept pulling you up, you kept choosing to fall
Now you got nobody left—and you earned every wall
[Verse 2]
You mistook my loyalty for something you could spend
Treated “brother” like a word you could bend and bend
I took heat for your mess, kept your secrets concealed
While you sharpened the knife I was helping you shield
That’s the part that’s funny—you thought I was blind
Nah, I saw every crack, I just gave you more time
Thought maybe one day you’d grow into your word
Instead every promise got more absurd
You want sympathy now? Man, save me the speech
You had every damn chance that a person could reach
But you’d rather steal shortcuts than build something straight
Now you’re mad at the clock ’cause it won’t sit and wait
[Bridge]
I used to think I failed you
Then I finally understood
You can’t rescue somebody
Who gets comfortable drowning
[Verse 3]
Look at me now—I’m building, I’m thinking ahead
You’re still fighting the same damn battles instead
Same town, same circle, same stories on repeat
Still acting like struggle is some permanent street
And don’t confuse this verse with me wishing you pain
I’m just finally saying what I swallowed for years in my brain
You betrayed somebody who would’ve stood through it all
Then acted surprised when I stopped taking the call
You didn’t lose me once—you lost me every time
Every theft, every story, every crossed damn line
I gave you loyalty free; you treated trust like a loan
Now the bill came due and you’re paying it alone
[Final Hook]
Same old you, same old lies
Watching everybody else build while your opportunity dies
I don’t hate you, nah, I just finally got proof
Some people lose everything before they face truth
Same old you, same old game
Still searching for somebody else to carry the blame
I spent years covering for you, now I’m done with the role
You can keep that old life—I got somewhere to go
[Outro]
We started in the same place
Difference is
I left.
