[Intro]
Mmm, yeah, same, yeah
Never be the same, yeah
Yo
Yo

[Verse 1]
A lot of n***as always try to tell me what I can never me
It's funny, 'cause at the same time, I was busy doin' me
I kept it all to myself, never made an enemy
But now I'm the lil' lame that became the star they showin' up to see
They ain't even see it comin', man, what a shame
Swear I left a ton of clues
Remember it all, how I delivered the Cookie Monster to the jewels
Told a young lady to slow it down, I could spare a couple million views
And I wrote a song for all of my people, I know you saw it on the news
Young tortoise in the race
Slow and steady, but you let me blow right by you
N***as counted me, I did it three times, posin' as an umpire
I was cookin' up with no fryer
We were rollin' hard with no tires
But I had to tell myself I'm movin' on and I ain't no Mya
Now, now I'm strong as Binaca, sharp as blades on Baraka
Silk durag on my head, now I know it comes as a shocker
I'm just cleanin' out my locker
Grant my own fortune like I'm Baba
I'm just tryna be legendary at the green like the white tiger, go Saba
I was walkin' through a valley of flowers when I tripped on my purpose
It wasn't nobody but God, and I know he did it on purpose
Scraped my knee, but it was worth it, timin' on it nearly perfect
On a tightrope when I was meant to be the ringleader of the circus, yo

[Chorus]
Things will never be the same, yeah
Swear, I thought they'd never change, yeah
Man, my life has been so awesome
Since I bloomed out like a cherry blossom
Things will never be the same, yeah
Swear, I thought they'd never change, yeah
Man, my life has been so awesome
Since I bloomed out like a cherry blossom

[Verse 2]
My sister told me that she saw my friend from middle school ridin' on a bike
Said he looked like he ain't ate in days, I pray to God he alright
Maybe I should reach out to 'em, try and guide 'em to the light
Devil talkin' to me in my ear, tellin' me it ain't my fight
God blessed me with a platform, knowin' I should use my voice
But how I got the right to tell you when I rarely make the right choice
I can't give you any answers, you should ask Dr. Joyce
Or maybe one day I'll get it right, then we all can rejoyce
I stood at the back of the line, now I'm the one that headline
I done heard you n***as talkin', they wonderin' why
Because I just waited my time, and don't you dare go get it twisted
Ain't nowhere near the goals that I set up for myself
Still workin' hard now, but I had to focus first on betterin' myself
Last time around I was worried 'bout catchin' dust, bein' stuck on a shelf
Now my only concern after everything that I've done is what else
Spent many long nights drownin' in doubt when I knew I was blessed
And now I finally got an idea of what it take to be next, yeah

[Chorus]
Things will never be the same, yeah
Swear, I thought they'd never change, yeah
Man, my life has been so awesome
Since I bloomed out like a cherry blossom
Things will never be the same, yeah
Swear, I thought they'd never change, yeah
Man, my life has been so awesome
Since I bloomed out like a cherry blossom

[Outro]
Ooh-oh-ooh-oh, yeah
Ahh, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, ah
Yeah, ah-ooh, oh-oh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ah, ah, yeah, yeah
(Everything is going to be okay)
(He's comin')
He's comin' back, yeah
(Just to make out way)
(Everything is going to be okay)
(He's comin')
He's comin' back, yeah
(Like he said he would)
(Everything is going to be okay)
(He's comin' back)
Be okay, yeah, yeah
(Just to make a way)
(Everything is going to be all good)
(He's comin' back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Like he said he would)
