(Intro) There's one thing I've learned in life man As you get older, thangs change You know what I'm sayin? People change, friends change That's just how it go, mayn (Hook) I don't know if it's just me Did I change? Did they change? It's messed up It'll never be the same Let me tell ya mayn It's nothin like losin ya bro Today, love you Tomorrow you don't know 'em know more (Verse 1, Paul Wall) I got a lotta fish to fry But one thing I learned is you can't teach a fish to fly Kiss goodbye, cause on my team it's every man for theyself I'm just tryin'a do my best and play the cards that I'm dealt I reached out my hand for help, but I was reachin in vain So I tightened up by belt and paid the price for this fame All playas pay dues, you ain't gon' hear me complain I started out with lots of friends, but only a few remain They say I changed, but really I just matured and got smarter Seems like the realer I get, the more these boys get frauder When I'm around my own partnas, I sense envy and anger Real recognize real, and all you boys is strangers (Hook x2) (Verse 2, Pretty Todd, Unique & Scooby) From now was brothers I remember the shit like yesterday In front of the high's gettin high Lookin for the next day Yeah I remember that Same clothes, no bucks No hoes, all we had was just us Damn... man, I used to like that shit And then we got a deal, and they ain't like that shit I told myself that I'ma fight that shit No matter how long they hate, I won't quit Damn, but that's crazy though I don't know if it's me But we was like brothers, just different mothers And they switched up Should I love 'em or hate 'em? I ain't changed, just changed situations And that's why I only got a few partnas Cause niggas don't know how to act and I lose partnas And time change everythang And back then, it was us against them And the shit shoulda never changed (Hook x2) (Verse 3, Paul Wall) Dead God, I need your Blessing, so I'm asking for help To handle all these situations that come with this wealth My girlfriend is cheatin on my with my ex-best friend So now I'm takin applications for my next best friend I gotta keep my composure and hold it together I survived the stormy weather Things can only get better I shoulda brought a sweater, cause warm hearts turn cold Boys change shapes like Origami, but I refuse to fold Truth be told, that problems follow money and power Boys changin by the hour, friendships turn sour Phony smiles, fraud dap, and lotta fake love But I'm sturdy in my position, Paul Wall won't budge (Hook x2)
