Aaliyah Nicole - Same Ol' Me Lyrics

Aye, can I talk my shit mayne?
F*ck it, I'ma talk my shit mayne
Bird's view

I've been watching from a bird's view
'Cause I stay high never coming down
It's a perfect size no need to adjust the crown

'Cause bitch I been dope
And I been the queen
They think I fell off
But I ain't even that clumsy

Still Lil Ol' Slick off of Waller and North Avenue
Shout out to the twins, Dre, Jason and Joanna too
Remember them days catching lightning bugs, 7am Shannon waking us up
Like dude it's Saturday, but I know that's how he showed his love

Now let me get back to the script
I'm still here, same me, new drip
You know me, I be fly as hell
I ain't gotta take your girl, she volunteered herself

But at least I gave her back
She played us both, I won't dwell on that
'Cause I'm doing better now
And my new bae get so much wetter now

I'm still the same ol' me with the same ol' dream
Since I was a shorty, been the same ol' thing
They said I wouldn't make it, but somehow I can't believe 'em
They ain't see the vision, so I knew I had to leave 'em

Still the same ol' me
And I'm still on the same ol' dream

See I might be new to you, but I swear I ain't new to this
13 in my granny garage throwing shows

Shout out to Jeenyuz

And that's just how it started
Couple years later me and Johni rockin'
Not long after I'm signing artists
Music with Meaning, I knew we could prosper

But they thought that shit was supposed to happen overnight
They ain't want the race, they just wanted the finish line
Some expected the rewards without the f*ckin' grind
I get pissed when I think about all my f*ckin' time

All that time and money spent on everybody else
Can't even get a thank you, but it's cool, it was never just about myself
We was a team, and I never once doubted it
Too bad when I make it only a few gon' reap the benefits

I'm still the same ol' me with the same ol' dream
Since I was a shorty, been the same ol' thing
They said I wouldn't make it, but somehow I can't believe 'em
They ain't see the vision, so I knew I had to leave 'em

Still the same ol' me
And I'm still on the same ol' dream

I'm still the same ol' me with the same ol' dream
Since I was a shorty, been the same ol' thing
They said I wouldn't make it, but somehow I can't believe 'em
They ain't see the vision, so I knew I had to leave 'em

Still the same ol' me
And I'm still on the same ol' dream

Same ol' me
Same ol' dream
