s,
it stays the same
But the bases keep on changin'
Give me one more day to
stay here and I'll go
I'm addicted to this game
But the more I play I hate it
Give me one more day to stay
here and I'll go
We're not a reggae band and
never really claimed to be
Ironic that I'd say that and then
drop it on a reggae beat
So being pigeon -holed to that
is just a pain for me
While all you white boy reggae bands with dreads,
you sound the same to me
So when we go and do some
pop songs on the album
I hear the other bands we play
with not talk shit about em
I'm not really trippin' while I'm
waiting for the outcome
They see us on
TV and realize we moved on without em
They're insecure enough
to limit their own music
Their friends will say it's whack so
they're too close -minded to do it
If telling is a doggy dance,
sure I abuse it
Cheapest one I've ever done
and so I'll never lose it
I remember years ago I really
used to love this scene
And now it breaks my heart to say I'm
waiting for my chance to leave
Cause now I'm seeing that
they all just started loving me
I love them but they wish I didn't know that
All the boots, it stays the same
But the faces keep on changing
Give me one more day to
stay here and I'll go
I'm addicted to this game,
but the more I play I hate it
Give me one more day
to say it and I'll go
Listen, I'm just not into this
Can't remember
who got me into this
This whole scene is driving me crazy
I wanna like some things but
I'm afraid that they'll hate me
I remember back when this
thing was my baby
Feels like I'm on a team
and I wanna be traded
They used to like my shit,
it feels like they betrayed me
This is turning out to be all
of the things that I hated
I remember dreaming bout the
girls that would lay me
Thinking bout the money that
promoters would pay me
Now I can't really handle all the things
that they're saying
Reading bad reviews all day
like I hate the pavement
At some point the dream became a
nightmare so wake me
And major labels tryna take me
for all they can take me
Put me on the radio and
say that they saved me
They want me to ignore that
All the bullshit stays the same
But the faces keep on changing
Give me one more day to
stay here and I'll go
I'm addicted to this game
But the more I play I hate it
Give me one more day to
say it and I'll go
Strange to know I'm outgrowing
the bands I was a fan of
Headed for the mainstream,
that's always what the plan was
I'm being honest now,
so I risk losing fans
Cause I tell the truth and others don't,
well that's just what a man does
I'm saying they're not growing up
They're busy staying underground,
well I'm just busy blowing up
Won't forget the days when we
had nobody showing up
People that we knew were fans,
I guess we didn't know enough
I'm not even 21,
I'm 10 years behind you
Used to send out label demos,
hoping I would sign you
20 -year -old label owner,
you can't do what I do
Writing and producing hits,
it feels like I don't try to
An d you should know by now
I'm not someone to lie to
Used to talk behind my back,
I don't need to remind you
And I won't be the one you cry to
When you finally realize that
All the bullshit stays the same,
but the faces keep on changing
Give me one more day to
stay here and I'll go
I'm addicted to this game,
but the more I play I hate it
Give me one more day
to stay here and I'll go
