Jered Sanders Nothing Like That (feat. Dre Murray)
[Intro: Jered Sanders]
Hey man, why y'all always get things twisted, though?
I don't even be saying it like that, but y'all be like...
[Hook: Jered Sanders]
Almost every time I try to say something pure
You try to tell me
That it ain't enough
Gotta be something more
Something more
[Verse 1: Jered Sanders]
Ay, everybody been asking me if I'm well-off
Checking if my Twitter feed a tell-all
Hit 'em with a question or maybe give a suggestion and it's set off
Who would've thought a brother let his shell off, I'm only asking
I decided to give 'em the living well
'Cause little Timmy Turner been itching to kill himself
Or Michelle, she been thinking of killing a living cell
Women's health, 'cause it's better to quit 'em than live in Hell, right?
If I tell a brother never kill his brother, man
Or if I tell 'em there's some pluses in the government
They try to tell me that we struggle and we underpaid
And how I'm never gon' relate if I ain't struggling
Homie, I guess it's only live when I'm sitting quiet
And guess you never really stuffed when you on a diet, right?
But now you wanna throw a tantrum
Thinking I'm a sellout, but you ain't got the answers, man
[Hook: Jered Sanders]
Almost every time I try to say something pure
You try to tell me
That it ain't enough
Gotta be something more
Something more
But it's nothing like that (nothing like that)
Nothing like that (nothing like that)
Nothing like that (nothing like that)
Every time try to look between the lines
But it's nothing else
[Verse 2: Dre Murray]
Yeah, you got the angle all wrong
Off by a couple degrees
You hit the zoom, took a couple, then cheese
Smile after the flash and suddenly you blind to the past
Drove around the context and crashed, I laughed
For a minute, 'cause trolls are kinda cute in the beginning
But that's until them lies start spinning, no
Not a direct hit, sort of implied
Now your passive-aggression got me with anger inside
I can't believe we spending part of our lives
Deciphering codes in a Tweet
Any way I respond is defeat
Things look a little different from your seat
Without a bird's-eye view
You don't trust, you say that birds lie too
Let's not forget, though, that birds cry too
Remember Purple Rain? He said I only listen to the king
And the harmony is off when that caged bird sings
Here's the key, lemme tell you what you mean
Bruh, it's nothing like that
[Bridge: Jered Sanders]
Really, I'm just a curious George
I ain't saying I never struggle, I don't cruise in a Porsche
I ain't saying it ain't a problem with the blue in the force
But I don't your mama viewing a corpse
I don't want a lady dreams getting thwarted 'cause a quick pumper
Left her with a full-fledged baby, not a view of support
But if the Lord say a baby is a blessing, it's a blessing
And I don't think it's really up to you to distort
[Hook: Jered Sanders]
Almost every time I try to say something pure
You try to tell me
That it ain't enough
Gotta be something more
Something more
But it's nothing like that (nothing like that)
Nothing like that (nothing like that)
Nothing like that (nothing like that)
Every time try to look between the lines
But it's nothing else
[Outro: Jered Sanders]
I mean, just, just axing
Haha, you know, just axing
I ain't, not asking, just axing (laughter), forreal
