Not Like You Lyrics by K21

The Greenhouse

2008

[Verse 1]
I got a few little secrets I’d like to be kept
First off, I wanna know where my childhood went
It’s in the distance, so I wanna just wring life at the neck
The sight o’ success never wants to sign for regret
Minutes pass, and I’m feelin’ like my life ain’t in check
Tired from stress, I’m fightin’ until I am the best
What’s a man gotta do to get a sign o’ respect?
‘Cause the law of the jungle been blinded by meds
What’s love got to do with a shove and a bruise? Huh?
That’s what I thought ‘til I done it to you
But I’m tryna stay afloat whеn the summer is blue
Cash is low, but wе still seem to suck up the booze as a
Way to heal, way to vent
But that ain’t the best way to pay the rent
Save a cent? I’m better off to place some bets
And hold my fate in a table and pray to death, c’mon!


[Chorus]
You wanna have a little piece o’ mind?
I bought a plate o’ food for thought, this is feedin’ time
Forty hours a week, brain dead, slavin’ technology
Raised in monotony where pain is the odyssey
How can I say that I’m not like you
When every job I do has lost, high views?
I won’t get outta the kitchen, but this is not my stew
So keep ya mouth shut or hang and wear this not tied noose

[Post-Chorus]
Keep ya mouth shut or hang and wear this not tied noose
Keep ya mouth shut or hang and wear this not tied noose
Keep ya mouth shut or hang and wear this not tied noose
Keep ya mouth shut! So keep ya mouth shut!

[Verse 2]
I gave a long kiss goodnight to those lost in the fight
Of a grip of anything sane, now zombies of life
Public transport frequent, lost to the light
All for one, one for all, be as cold as the ice
Driftin’ into a land with some bricks in my hand
Tryna build a house of promise while you sit and just glance
I was the boy in class who you’d point and laughed at
But then jumped on my sack and asked cats for my last track
But then there’s some that say I rhyme too vexed
I just guess I just do what I do best
A vagabond tryna scrounge a piece of hope
Brush the dirt off the tombstone and clean my clothes
Yeah, that made me strong, build up all the hate I’m on
Standin’ free on my own land that they can’t bomb
It’s a late night song, depression made us strong
For all the ones who can’t wait until the days are gone

[Chorus]
You wanna have a little piece o’ mind?
I bought a plate o’ food for thought, this is feedin’ time
Forty hours a week, brain dead, slavin’ technology
Raised in monotony where pain is the odyssey
How can I say that I’m not like you
When every job I do has lost, high views?
I won’t get outta the kitchen, but this is not my stew
So keep ya mouth shut or hang and wear this not tied noose

You wanna have a little piece o’ mind?
I bought a plate o’ food for thought, this is feedin’ time
Forty hours a week, brain dead, slavin’ technology
Raised in monotony where pain is the odyssey
How can I say that I’m not like you
When every job I do has lost, high views?
I won’t get outta the kitchen, but this is not my stew
So keep ya mouth shut or hang and wear this not tied noose
