[Oddisee, Sainte Ezekiel , Olivier St. Louis - I Thought You Were Fate lyrics]
I had to be this way we don't vibe anymore
Tension in the room, couldn't breathe
Had to leave this space
I'll survive on my own
Only now could I take a look
Back on relief I made to collide or condone
Hard choice when I heard your soft voice
Telling me to stay
Had to flee doubt, yea I had to be out
It's a big city
Not enough for us to split it
I can make a living anywhere that I can visit
Didn't know it 'til I packed
The rental with the vision
That became reality the more
That you were distant
Saw you as a nest, now I see you as a net
Cause you saw me as a catch
Now I see you as a prison
Of my own making, un made it
Now I'm different
Had to turn an is into an isn't
I thought you were fate
I was wrong all along
I thought you were fate
My mistake, had to make
I thought you were fate
In the end, just pretend
I thought you were fate
I don't read my stars
Though I came from the source
Not a plot in a chart
To unlock and unleash my cause
Not a game on a board
Read a card, see a flaw, now it's law
My belief, my loss
I ain't playing in a sport
Made a bet, played the fool
Nothing left but to beat my odds
Yea of course, I'ma breach my flaws
Had to come back from a few things
This is not a new thing
Strapping up the boots with a
Theory in a shoestring
I think I can move things, with my, mind
Like my hands and my feet
No magic to produce things
Finding it amusing we are in control
And we think to get the bread
We gotta wait to get a roll
I ain't with a few things
Writing into stone at the top
And I only broke the mold when it dropped
I thought you were fate
I was wrong all along
I thought you were fate
My mistake, had to make
I thought you were fate
In the end, just pretend
I thought you were fate
Tension in the room, couldn't breathe
Had to leave this space
I'll survive on my own
Only now could I take a look
Back on relief I made to collide or condone
Hard choice when I heard your soft voice
Telling me to stay
Had to flee doubt, yea I had to be out
It's a big city
Not enough for us to split it
I can make a living anywhere that I can visit
Didn't know it 'til I packed
The rental with the vision
That became reality the more
That you were distant
Saw you as a nest, now I see you as a net
Cause you saw me as a catch
Now I see you as a prison
Of my own making, un made it
Now I'm different
Had to turn an is into an isn't
I thought you were fate
I was wrong all along
I thought you were fate
My mistake, had to make
I thought you were fate
In the end, just pretend
I thought you were fate
I don't read my stars
