Nah It Ain't The Same - Greentea Peng

Nah, it ain’t the same

Being a man today

Nah, it ain’t the same, nah, it ain’t the same

Being a man today

Nah, it ain’t the same

Waking up to this disarray

This uncertainness only seems to serve the misery

Maya place on me, mother take from me

All of this false shit, I do not need it

I believe in magic because I’ve seen it

Nothing new, the ego, you know already how it goes

I’ve got a strong mind, strong girl

From my head to my toe, back to my ego

These earthly habits, they’ve got to get going

I’ve let go of desires, but I have truly let go of the fires

That burn them and fuel them

It’s so hard to be human

With a battling mind

I have lost all devotion over time

I’m on the path of remembrance

And I’m remembering fine, having nothing that’s mine

Only borrowing time, my kind

Chatting to God, unworthy of His time

With all these doubts in my mind

Cannot cast aside, left to struggle in my rhymes

Nah, it ain’t the same being a man today

Nah, it ain’t the same, nah, it ain’t the same

Being a man today

Nah, it ain’t the same (Nah, it ain’t the same)

Being a man today (Being a man today)

Inner battles dwell like city kids beneath the poverty line

I’m feeding my senses

Food for thought is money well spent-ed

'Cause most of our so-called knowledge is rented, invented

Depends-es on flippant friends-es

Social scenarios, hollow like Cheerios

You hear me though

Never thought I’d be coming out your stereo

But there we go, maktub, y’all

It’s written, you know

Nah, it ain’t the same

Being a man today

Nah, it ain’t the same, nah, it ain’t the same

Being a man today

Nah, it ain’t the same (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Being a man today (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

No, it ain’t the same

Being a man today

No, it ain’t the same

No, it ain’t the same

No, it ain’t the same

(I say man, I mean human and woman)

(And you man and you man)

(And me man, said, we man, yeah, we man, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Being a man today

Being a man today

Being a man today

(Yeah, man, yeah, man)

Being a man today (Yeah, man, yeah, man)

Being a man today (Yeah, man, yeah, man)

Being a man today

Being a man today

It ain’t the same, nah, it ain’t the same, yeah

No, it ain’t the same

Being a man today

No, it ain’t the same

(Man made, man made)

Being a man today

Inner battles dwell like city kids beneath the poverty line

I’m feeding my senses
