[Verse 1: B.o.B as an old friend] What ever happened to Bobby Ray, he used to be here for us Then he got famous and left all of his fans in the dust We never hear from you, you're constantly changing And your relatives always miss you at family occasions And your mother misses you too Since all the fortune you've been too busy recording Now she feels unimportant and your daddy's been going through it Since he lost his mother The least you could do is call him and show him, you support him I never thought you would sell out You're becoming so co*ky I asked you for a picture after your show You walked right by me, I'm like Ain't this the dude that said that it ain't about the price tag Now on your records all that you do is brag Come on, Bob, I thought you was better than that, dawg What happened to Cloud 9 and Generation Lost? You were my idol, just when I thought I'd give up on everything I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody…) [Hook] I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody…) Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum (melody, melody, melody) Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum [Verse 2: B.o.B. as a longtime fan] What ever happened to B.o.B, he once was my favourite I swear to God that I had all of his mixtapes on my playlist He was hood, but so different at the same time It was like a breath of fresh air, everytime he rhymed And everybody was on him and the world fell in love The girls, the money, the lifestyle, all the above I guess he's stopped giving a f** for all of his little people With your shades on, we can't even see you Is that what happens, when somebody makes it off of rapping They taste the fame and change like it's just automatic Where's the integrity? You're on that other sh** You don't even sound the same, I liked your other sh** But we'll still stand beside you, cause somewhere deep inside you There's more than what meets the eye I swear on the Bible you were my idol Just when I thought I give up on everything I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody…) [Hook] [Verse 3: B.o.B] I watched my whole life change in a couple of years Who woulda ever thought I would have caught the world by the ears I swear, this sh** is so much bigger than I had figured But if it wasn't meant to be this wouldn't be my career It's like, people only see it the way it appears But they never see the ropes and the pulleys and the gears Blood, sweat and tears. We cry blood, all we sweat is tears In the middle of this rap game on the battle field All of these shock jock interviews, tryna phone me You never know who's gonna try to play you and make you look phoney I live and die for my team, these n***as are more than my homies We put it all on the line, we gave up all our belongings for this rap sh** Cause at the end of the day, it ain't just rap sh** I call it making a way for our survival Just when I thought I gave up on everything I dreamed about this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody…) I dreamed about this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody…) Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum (melody, melody, melody…) Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum I dreamed about this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody…) Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum Da da dum
