Gillian Mackey - Change lyrics

[Verse One: King Cole] I slide in, I'm James Brown I'm Rick James, I'm young king, it's a bad thing Move left bless up back to the Labs that's my thing I keep the ginger root like I'm Mick Jenk Plenty of water sipping that water tank Pray for me I'm finna go, we some 1907 greats Aye, I had my nose down, my head to the grindstone Chaff blown in the wind, no rhinestones Like an accountant I've been calculating Roots, Doves and Rheumatism scribbling composing and true wisdom My hearts been all gone in the last months Struggling to speak with a drone in my tongue Off my back I used to lovingly give you my shirt Now I got my name on it homie thats absurd Is that arrogant? I used to make time for you Now the numbers talk but not to you I didn't want it, it's just how it worked out You had your soul in my house, I had my mind in the clouds This no breakup song, but maybe an apology I'll go and take my fair share of humble piety This no breakup song, but maybe an apology My love forgive me for ever losing confidence in you [Hook: Gillian Mackey and Michael Whitty] You used to love me - do you still love me anymore? You used to love me - do you still love me anymore? [Verse Two: The Cartier] Check one check two one Do you love me or love me not I know a lot has been changed but it can't be stopped I got my doves on the left, water on the right And I ain't even gotta tell you cause my roots on lock (yeah) The way that we move is so smooth That's a clue that momentum is all on our side First I make music for you then make Music for me it just happens they both coincide Yeah we got artists on artists on artists man look Where we started and look at us grow Now we got Gillian, Michael, and Gracie and Jesse and Brendan and Adam and Liam and Ton' Stop - without you we're nothing Hold up for a second let me ask you something (do you still love me any more) [Hook: Gillian Mackey and Michael Whitty] You used to love me - do you still love me anymore? You used to love me - do you still love me anymore? [Saxophone Solo: Liam Speirs] *Roots adlib by Gracie Parrish* [Verse Three: The Cartier] You turned my house - into a home I go - to be alone But not really alone, my friends up on the phone They tell me they on the way They tell me I gotta stay They say hello cartier we think that you have changed Well, I don't know what I've been told But if you ever said I wouldn't then bless your soul ‘Cause i do what I want, I do what I please You loved me straight from the jump Will you love me aqui [Verse Four: King Cole] Will you love when me when I'm old and grey When my crown of cold has turned old and gray I put my heart in this, I put my chips all in My pops told me son never make your wish list thin I put one foot in front of another and for you know it My bars in the bedroom made me a poor man's poet My 6 string slings put me up on the roof I brought my family with me so they can witness the truth [Verse Five: The Cartier] You tuned my dream - into a hobby I know that my family got me I know that the waves are choppy I know you wanna ride You gotta go stay persistent perfection will come with time I was raised by these instrumentals An apprentice to the rhyme but I've changed Mixing all these genres I know real Gs move in silence like lasagna I know making music it requires you to wander Just up on the keys and on my mind I'm a goner [Verse Six: King Cole] Recently it's been more than that Not girls and bottles but more business than rap I was worried you forgot me and gave up on the l Labs I was worried wouldn't find me ‘tween the numbers and stats And the worst thing is I'm not sure if you see That's though my voice has changed you still the voice of me You're still the breath of Cole, crisp, rasp and full on bold And even when I'm gone, you still my legacy [Outro] They can never say, they can never say They can never say - oooh People get ready, people get ready People get ready - to carry you home People get ready, people get ready People get ready - to carry you home Into reality that's where we'll go Shed all this dirt now my roots might just grow Shared all these blessings I hope they will know They don't want to see me higher (x5) And I need more… And I need my roots… And I need time… And I need my roots… Roots……..
