Counterfeit by Cathcart Lyrics
[Chorus]
Got a couple fans and they say I’ve been away for a minute too long
Saying I’m the man, but they’re waiting for the day, I’ll hit ‘em with a new song
I ain’t done with the dream, if it seemed I was finna move on
But looking back on my past, ain't a thing that I didn’t do wrong
[Verse 1]
I know y'all thinking that I'm 'boutta spit
But recently, I've been out of it
Deep in me, there's a cloud and it
Frequently pulls me down in the dumps
I’m off balance, and the balance of my bank account is zip
I dreamt of having so much I couldn't even keep count of it
But now I’m feeling counterfeit, full of cowardice
No way to counter it, now I sit on the kitchen counter
Encountering a mountain of truth
The fountain of youth:
I’m bound to quit floundering and drown in it
[Chorus]
Got a couple fans and they say I’ve been away for a minute too long
(For a minute too long)
Saying I’m the man, but they’re waiting for the day, I’ll hit ‘em with a new song
(With a, with a new song)
I ain’t done with the dream, if it seemed I was finna move on
(I could never move on)
But looking back on my past, ain't a thing that I didn’t do wrong
[Verse 2]
How do you do?
I know this is kinda out of the blue
But I feel as if I’m not allowed to be blue
Cuz in my mouth I’ve got food
In my house I have two parents as devout to each other
As when they went and said their vows and I do’s
I’ve been blessed with a choice and the power to choose
I’ve been flexing my voice, in and out of the booth
I’m bout to pursue a future learning how to produce
With my computer, how to improve the sound of a loop
And even if I’m feeling out of the loop, it’s undoubtedly rude
To call my balance askew when a thousand of you
Are way more calloused and bruised
It’s like I’ve only found an excuse to pout in a mood
I feel like if I frown, then I’m screwed
I just feel invalid, it’s true
But I’d never expect the crown to fit a counterfeit dude
I’ve been following the sound of the music, too proud and too stupid
To realize that my talents are useless
[Chorus]
Got a couple fans and they say I’ve been away for a minute too long
Saying I’m the man, but they’re waiting for the day, I’ll hit ‘em with a new song
Got a couple fans and they say I’ve been away for a minute too long
Saying I’m the man, but they’re waiting for the day, I’ll hit ‘em with a new song
I ain’t done with the dream, if it seemed I was finna move on
But looking back on my past, ain't a thing that I didn’t do wrong
[Verse 1]
