Verse 1: Promise
Have you ever seen a guy wit nice stuff
I mean Encino Man • real iced up
N' he hold his head high • Knowin' inside
His soul is jus cryin cause his life s**s
N' his friends are as fake as a facelift
Or an alien outer-space in a spaceship
N' its all in his face so he gotta face it
Cause if he don't then his life feels wasted
So he's thinkin'
Pre-chorus 1: Slakah
If he could be just somebody
Then maybe he could be himself
(Repeat)
Chorus: Brendan Philip/Promise
Some body • Somebody else (x3)
Maybe you should be yourself 'stead of tryna be
Some body • Somebody else (x3)
Verse 2: Promise
Have you seen a girl who looked like she got
...all together • Together now "she got it"
Even in the winter she's hot n'
She cud probably get whoever she wanted
But the problem is she's got a low self-esteem
Because of the path that she chose as a teen
She was taught to chase after a stone on a ring
So she thought she needed a man to grow as a queen
Please
Pre-chorus 2: Slakah
If she could be just somebody
Then maybe she could be herself (Repeat)
Chorus
