Asher Roth, Tavii - Be Okay lyrics
[Asher Roth, Tavii - Be Okay lyrics]
Dear ma, your baby boy's grown up, he's now
And they say I'm gonna blow
Up at any minute now
Wait a minute, I'll admit it
Nothing's really perfect
So much to learn in this earth
I'm only at the surface so first I feel sick
And weak with responsibility
Honestly why is it that people
Respond to me differently
Still a kid, if I cop a nice new whip
I'm still the Asher Roth they
Went to high school with
And back in high school, shit
All those kids I used to rap with
Coming right at me, saying "I got your back
Kid" actually I can tell if they
True friends of mine
On the side in their eyes
They be seeing dollar signs
After all my homework and
Repping Philly though
Girls stay asking me "Can I
Be in your video?" i don't know
Questions need to be answered that can't be
I can't stand it, as a man I came to the
Just drive and drive (Just drive and drive)
Know I'm on your side (Know I'm on your side)
Life is hard sometimes (Life is hard)
Just realize
It'll be okay, it'll be okay, oh
It'll be okay, it'll be okay
I know you told me this would happen
I remember what you said about it
"If you make it Asher
You best have a level head about it"
Don't matter I'm always me
Never gonna change up
Even if my boys complain that I don't hang up
Strange enough girls want their
Virginity taken fast
Saying they be feeling me even
If I didn't rap is that a fact? Why these
People saying "Hi" to me?
Take away my privacy
Still it seems honorable
Obviously there ain't nothing wrong with that
I just laugh when they ask for an autograph
I just pass the dick riders
And the gold diggers too
Since the truth's what's there before
The money was too
So when that dust settles and
I'm through being the man, see
I'm back to square one
Just me and the family
Just drive and drive (Just drive and drive)
Know I'm on your side (Know I'm on your side)
Life is hard sometimes (Life is hard)
Just realize
It'll be okay, it'll be okay, oh
It'll be okay, it'll be okay
The break of down
Momma never knew when I was coming home
See her eyes would swell from all the tears
And her mind stayed scared from all the fears
"Baby boy's not home, must be doing wrong
Lord, keep him safe 'cause
He ain't full grown"
You made me everything I am today
I hope you realize it'll be okay
(That's right)
And they say I'm gonna blow
Up at any minute now
Wait a minute, I'll admit it
Nothing's really perfect
So much to learn in this earth
I'm only at the surface so first I feel sick
And weak with responsibility
Honestly why is it that people
Respond to me differently
Still a kid, if I cop a nice new whip
I'm still the Asher Roth they
Went to high school with
And back in high school, shit
