Who I Am Now by Taylor James (USA) Lyrics
(Verse 1)
It's not what you know or who you know
It's finding that one thing in life that makes it seem beautiful
I'm feeling far from the usual
You would see it to if you could look into my soul
In a snapback, chuck t's, dickies, with a flannel
It's Kools over Camels
I'm at the front of the rotation with the Phillies, I ain't Hamels
I "And 1" handle the work and smoke purp from the dirt
Out the greatest city ever on this earth
I just (skirtttt!) down the street,now I'm headed for home
I gotta mind to go along with all the flesh on my bones
Which has nothing better to do besides being alone
So put a pillow in my coffin, show the king to his throne
I force myself into a zone where I can hear or see nothing
Except the shadows on the wall and the sound of their feet coming
I've been fighting off these demons
My life has run out of reasons but at least it has a meaning, yeah
(Hook)
To defy the odds of the words on the tip of your tongue
I ain't driving home tonight, girl, I think I'm bout to sip a lil' some
Would you love me if I wasn't who I am now?
I gotta lot on my mind, I think I'm losing it now
(Verse 2)
I'm sipping Remy Red with this bitch I barely met
We rolling up paper jets till it's time to go to bed
But right before we do I might get her a little wet
Talk myself off of the ledge, sometimes I wish I was dead
Shit, I guess I'll live instead popping Xannies for my stress
Yes, there's plenty people out there still considering me blessed
So until my last breath I'm a give it all I can
Boy, these girls meet me once and understand that I'm the man
From the land of the South Bay, blunt in my mouth
Hey, me and my team going hard, you get outplayed
I know that sun is shining bright when them clouds fade
My name is Taylor James, and I'm from LA
It's not what you know or who you know
It's finding that one thing in life that makes it seem beautiful
I'm feeling far from the usual
You would see it to if you could look into my soul
In a snapback, chuck t's, dickies, with a flannel
It's Kools over Camels
I'm at the front of the rotation with the Phillies, I ain't Hamels
I "And 1" handle the work and smoke purp from the dirt
Out the greatest city ever on this earth
I just (skirtttt!) down the street,now I'm headed for home
I gotta mind to go along with all the flesh on my bones
Which has nothing better to do besides being alone
So put a pillow in my coffin, show the king to his throne
I force myself into a zone where I can hear or see nothing
Except the shadows on the wall and the sound of their feet coming
I've been fighting off these demons
My life has run out of reasons but at least it has a meaning, yeah
