Próxima Parada - It Don't Feel the Same lyrics

I’m tired of walking down the asphalt
Something about it feels so wrong
No, I don’t care if it’s a shortcut
Motor oil smells so strong
I wanna take the long way home
With honeysuckle scattered along
I’m gonna keep that smoke out my face
‘Cause it don’t feel the same

How many times have I looked without looking?
So I finally put my camera away
I have to stop if I wanna see
I wanna really hear what you’re saying
I’m trying not to run from you
I wanna see you anew today
‘Cause hearing you through my lens
It don’t feel the same

No, I never had a good day
I never had a bad day
An old Chinese farmer told me
"It’s all just maybe"
But, I do know one thing
It don’t feel the same

I ain’t gonna guild my excuses
‘Cause it don’t feel the same
I swore I’d retreat to my mountain
But it don’t feel the same
I stopped pouring ice on my emotions
‘Cause it don’t feel the same
I’m gonna face altars
Feel all support flowing

We can talk over the fence
We can slow down the pace
My name is not Wilson
I’m not afraid to show my face
But do me a favor, take me out of your box
I’m not that simple
Believe me, if I don’t know me
You don’t know me either
And please, quit saying you’re not lyrical
I guarantee you there is
Wisdom flowing through you you’re an eagle
Even the clumsiest, the most unfit
At your core underneath you are regal
And if it’s any consolation
I don’t need you to impress me
With the meaning you
Derive from constellations
I don’t really care about them stars
I don’t know who’s in charge
I just step aside, move ink
And write bars at 1: 00am oh damn
I just remembered last week was your birthday
I know I could stand to be a better friend
But at least I ain’t gonna stand
Here and pretend I could
Change the status quo while
Standing on tiptoes
Let me give you a proper intro:
I used to love my Space Jam Retros
But, if there’s one throwback I
Ain’t gonna stick with
I never want to lie to kick it
‘Cause every time I squeeze on
A pair of them kicks it don’t feel the same
I tried finding fault in my reflection
But it don’t feel the same

I tried chasing down a prophet
But it don’t feel the same
I tried erasing an ocean
But it don’t feel the same, so
I’m gonna face altars
Feel all support flowing

Flowing through you and me
