Oddisee Still Strange (feat. Priya Ragu & Sainte Ezekiel)
[Chorus]
We don't make the mistakes that we used to
They've been replaced by something useful
But I'm still strange
Nothing's changed
We told lies, now we're truthful
Can't go back to what we're use to
But I'm still strange
Nothing's changed
[Verse 1]
Took you for granted, only now I understand it, yeah yeah
Gone in the wind and now the wind just make me panic, yeah yeah
I'm all alone in isolation
And the only thing I'm testing is my patience
Thankful I'm alive and waiting, yeah yeah
Out front your place I hide emotions but can't mask depression
You get me high, I'm at your gate
I missed our close connection
Hope I'm not banned from trying again to make it work
I lost you first, make matters worse
I lost my job, I'm non-essential maybe
Don't wash your hands of me
We should be closer, why are we distant?
You hate what we've become but you'll love what we plan to be
I'm focused but still randomly my thoughts will sway
My whole life's a awkward phase
In short I say
[Chorus]
We don't make the mistakes that we used to
They've been replaced by something useful
But I'm still strange
Nothing's changed
We told lies, now we're truthful
Can't go back to what we're use to
But I'm still strange
Nothing has changed
[Verse 2]
I'm at a loss
Thought I was better off than other people
I could go jogging all that I want, I can't run away from me though
Am I evil or ignorant? Out of my mind or tenements?
Want it back the way it was, the way it was
Never backed me with benefits
I'm letting go of my ego and replace it with something that's generous
We should go chase after happiness
Some believe that this should come with a membership
Found out that freedom was limited
Said we equal, not the truth, we pretend it is
Proved to be something lethal
Can't lose you, yeah, I need you
Fighting for you on the frontlines
When we get through, it gon' reform
Communicating like we need to
Keep it transparent, baby, see through
Kept off or we kept on
Got a choice now, what should we do?
Don't repeat when we reborn
[Chorus]
We don't make the mistakes that we used to
They've been replaced by something useful
But I'm still strange
Nothing's changed
We told lies, now we're truthful
Can't go back to what we're use to
But I'm still strange
Nothing has changed
[Outro]
We don't make the mistakes that we used to
They've been replaced by something useful
But I'm still strange
Nothing's changed
We told lies, now we're truthful
Can't go back to what we're use to
