Annandale by The Thought Lyrics
[Hook]
Y'all don't seem invested into if I win or lose
My fight been with depression since I couldn't tie my shoes
But if there's something you could take a lesson from, in that
It's most of all these friends are fake, their love is just an act
Y'all don't seem invested into if I win or lose
My fight been with depression since I couldn't tie my shoes
But if there's something youth could take a lesson from, in that
It's most of all these friends are fake, their love is just an act
They don't got my back, they just riding with the ruse
The fact he stay so giving 'cause he lost a couple screws
Learning while he living, there's no prize to do it right
So-called "homie" tripping 'cause I need some time to write
Y'all don't seem invested into if I win or lose
My fight been with depression since I couldn't tie my shoes
But if there's something youth could take a lesson from, in that
It's most of all these friends are fake, their love is just an act
They don't got my back, they just riding with the ruse
The fact he stay so giving 'cause he lost a couple screws
Learning while he living, there's no prize to do it right
So-called "homie" tripping 'cause I need some time to write
[Verse]
Fake friends
Type to leave a sour taste when the chase ends
Study you then ape you for the placements
See themselves as hunters on the apex
Fake friends
Work you half to death just for a paycheck
Pace been breaking necks since the late text
Clients out in China need the taste test
Fake friends, judging your mistakes and
Pushing you to put aside your personal engagements
All for bottom statements
They gon' let you age in the cage that you slaved in
These the Devil's Agents
Plan to test your patience
Man, they'll have you stressing 'til you press 'em for some raises
Then they'll have you guessing
'Til conveyance that they looking to replace you
Fuck your questions
This good riddance, better make due
He just acted "Like a Friend", go run that back for receipts
"How far can I make it bend?", another lesson repeats
Thought we shared our words as men, but that's a work of deceit
He'd be verbal on my head until the work was complete
I moved the Earth for pennies
All the worth of my wording was dirt aplenty
Many knew I was urban from birth
But for the purse of Lenny
As he lurched for his Nurse
Put a curse upon the Church antennae
Let the hearse of greed be worse
Than verses of epistolary form...
[Hook]
Y'all don't seem invested into if I win or lose
My fight been with depression since I couldn't tie my shoes
But if there's something youth could take a lesson from, in that
It's most of all these friends are fake, their love is just an act
They don't got my back, they just riding with the ruse
The fact he stay so giving 'cause he lost a couple screws
Learning while he living, there's no prize to do it right
So-called "homie" tripping 'cause I need some time to write
Y'all don't seem invested into if I win or lose

They don't got my back, they just riding with the ruse

So-called "homie" tripping 'cause I need some time to write
[Bridge]
Talkin' 'bout my fake friends
Only seem to make them
Souring the mood
It's Annandale
I been tryn'a break trends
Keeping up my maintenance
Dealing with my blues
You mad as hell
Talkin' 'bout my fake friends
Only seem to make them
Souring the mood
It's Annandale
I been tryn'a break trends
Keeping up my maintenance
Dealing with my blues
You mad as hell
Talkin' 'bout my fake friends
Only seem to make them
Souring the mood
It's Annandale
I been tryn'a break trends
Keeping up my maintenance
Dealing with my blues
You mad as hell
[Verse]
Y'all been tryn'a gaslight me
Into leaving out my past life
'Cause your dad's tight
Y'all don't understand my needs
When I'm dreaming
It's like I've died...
Singing "bye-bye!"
They don't rap like me
'Cause they never saw the path right
In a bad light
Y'all were my family
Now you happily
Ignore all of my pain
'Cause you mad at me
So acting the way you imagined is atrophy
Laughing at all those that lack what you have to eat
Passion is foreign to you
What a sad way to move
Your tactics are savage and bastardly
Salary used as a cover to screw over people
You know could do better!
Never thought Riley'd do evil to me!
Grateful he's not sending letters
[Verse]
I was hired for one thing, you expected another
Feeling foolish for trusting, just 'cause you were my brother
We had suffered through some similar catastrophes
And our capacity to grow was smothered by some numbers
And I'm loving how you made it out like I was in the wrong
Worked for free all those hours while you dragged me along
You should be happy I'm strong, a weaker man would've swung on you
But I learned where we stand, and I brand that a W
[Bridge]
What a big man, with his Daddy for the bankroll
Cushioned from the land where you struggle or you break mold
Urban for the camera, but racist in the text
Stealing all you can, and still like "Face it, I'm up next!"
Should've took it as a warning when your mom preferred me to Jose
Or been more supportive when you wondered whether you were gay
But when I'm recording, you annoying with some work you need me doing
Still avoiding my back-pay, lucky I ain't suing
[Outro]
'Cause I'm a good friend, not in competition
For the time I spent, this is recognition
And it's been the mission, to be a rising tide
All boats raised if they by my side
Singing "all boats raised if they by my side"
All boats raised if they by my side
Singing "all boats raised if they by my side"
All boats raised if they by my side
Y'all don't seem invested into if I win or lose
My fight been with depression since I couldn't tie my shoes
But if there's something you could take a lesson from, in that
It's most of all these friends are fake, their love is just an act
Y'all don't seem invested into if I win or lose
My fight been with depression since I couldn't tie my shoes
But if there's something youth could take a lesson from, in that
