Brandon Batarseh - Who am I lyrics
{Hook} That I used to know ×4 {Verse 1} The Socrates of modern day philosophy With written calculations As if the reincarnation Of Archimedes The Einstein To theoretical relative rhymes It's like H.G. Wells himself Dwells deep within the mind Clearly seen between the lines of history Luckily We got a f**ing time machine To solve this puzzling mystery In nature Music induces a mental pain k**er Safe to double the dose Just to make it through the winter I ain't gonna lie You're k**ing my vibe Life is just a ride So drop the pride Imagine how much better You would be if you're humble We all stumble That's a fact Why stay in the bubble? When you can rise up Ready to rumble to take it back {Hook} That I used to know ×4 {Verse 2} Why get lost in the light? Time to get found in the dark And guess what? You won't need a significant other Holding your heart From start to finish You can do and work on your own With only so much as minimal support That needs to be publicly known Be cool with being alone It's the mental zone That determines the throne You gotta be bold To step out of line Like our good ol' friend Alcapone I remember back When we were young gods once But that was then And yes my friend we grown Into something unknown To realize You can k** a God Simply by no longer believing These kids never cease To amaze me And people think I'm creepy Maybe a bit spooky But that's my job To tune these goons And I don't think I'll be retiring Anytime soon {Hook} That I used to know ×4 {Verse_3} Who am I? I'm that guy that never quit And yeah I dealt with alotta sh** But every time I pushed through it This is a guy That lost his wife and kids Not your problem But still It was devastating to him And suicide is not an option How can one know what is righteous? If they're regrettably blinded Cuz never have I lost my honor But sometimes I feel like I'm lying Like I can't deliver Maybe I'm getting too old for this sh** But when I think about it Around 300 is pushing my limits B A T A R S E H It's in my lineage to have a kindred spirit And when my father lost his site It feels like I became his vision In a sense we're the products of Moses Ain't no one come close to opposing If it wasn't for my dad You'd be back home Poor in your own country Remember who sold you the dream He didn't just lead He pulled your f**ing strings Showed you pack of monkeys The land of milk and honey {Hook} That I used to know ×4
