Patrice - Same Ol' Story lyrics

Better wake up you wanna be in heaven now
You're living in hell
You wanna be in heaven now
You're living in hell

Remember how it all began you
And me against the world
Just a guitar and a drum and all day long
We would rehearse
That's way before the coke
The selfishness the greed
The may load is the heaviest
So I must look out for me
Way before the days of low self-esteem
You see some people are and some people seem
So they do anything to maintain what
They want people to see
By any means, they bow
It's that slave mentality
Those days of innocence are in a sense
What makes me keep the peace
See we were friends
So I keep my demons on the leash

Same ol' story just another song
Same ol' beat just another drum
Same ol' tune recycled and redone
Where did it get us?
Look where we end up now

Same ol' story just another song
Same ol' beat just another drum
Same ol' tune recycled and redone
Where did it get us?
Look where we end up now

You wanna be in heaven now
You're living in hell
You wanna be in heaven now
You're living in hell

You just don't wish nobody well
You're fattest crab in the barrel
You drag anybody down who's reaching
Up to make it out
But now you're held captive by
What you created for yourself
Incarcerated in cell made of
Hatred for yourself
And I can't help but hold unto
The love that once was felt
And I will not fight back
Seems like you forgot
It was under my roof that you dwell, you eat
You sleep but now you fell like lucifer
So deep and tell

Same ol' story just another song
Same ol' beat just another drum
Same ol' tune recycled and redone
Where did it get us?
Look where we end up now

Same ol' story just another song
Same ol' beat just another drum
Same ol' tune recycled and redone
Where did it get us?
Look where we end up now

Love yourself, no

You wanna be in heaven now
You're living in hell
You wanna be in heaven now
You're living in hell
You wanna be in heaven now
You're living in hell

So you can get up lift your head up
Stop the talk and get your shit together
Look in the mirror what you see
Is that the man you used to be?
You better wake up you, better rise
Lively up and pay the price

Got to get up got to get up
Got to get up

Got to get up got to get up
Got to get up

Got to get up got to get up
Got to get up
