Lyrics
[Intro]
You have always, you have always had what is takes, Herbert
Yes, you do have what it takes
You put in the work, I hear it
I'm, I've witnessed it, I'm witnessing it, like
You do this day and night, sleep it, eat it, breathe it
Like, what are you talkin' about?
This is not me as your spouse or partner telling you this, at all
I just put my daughters to sleep, you get what I'm sayin'?
No, why did you say that?
I'm sayin', like I, this shit gotta, you know?
[Verse 1]
Been around the world and back, still standin' still
Gotta get up off this hamster wheel
I been up so long, I don't know how to feel
Gotta get up off this hamster wheel
On the hunt for somethin' real in strawberry fields
Money talking bullshit, runnin' track and field
And how the cookie crumbles up to me and not Mrs. Fields
Gotta get up off this hamster wheel
[Refrain]
Oh-oh, oh-oh (Yeah)
Gotta get up off this hamster wheel
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh
Gotta get up off this hamster wheel
Gotta get off, gotta get off
Get up off this hamster wheel
Oh-oh, oh-oh (Yeah)
Gotta get up off this hamster wheel
A little pain ain't never hurt nobody
On God (On God)
That's real shit (On God)
[Chorus]
Aye-yah-yah, just I, myself and me
It's just I, myself and me (Ooh-ah, ooh, ooh)
Dum-dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum
Dum-dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum
Dum-dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum
Dum-dum-dum (Ooh-ah)
[Verse 2]
They want me to rhyme like this and they want me to sound like that
And they want me to dress like this, they want me to look like that
But when the mic cut on, I go brain, I don't, I can't
The camera flash, I say, "Wait," I won't, I ain't
Then the pressure build like construction sites and I feel all reluctant like
Questioning what's become of my life, dashing from all the noise and the lights
Overwhelmed and dismayed, I smoke, I drank
Riding overtime, no brakes, I choke, I faint
[Chorus]
That's just dum-dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum (It's just I, myself and me)
Dum-dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum (It's just I, myself and me)
Dum-dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum (It's just I, myself and me)
Dum-dum-dum, that's just
Aye-yah-yah, aye-yah-yah
Aye-yah-yah, aye-yah-yah
[Verse 3]
Rise and shine, time to shake this rut, the tough get going, going get tough
Lint in my pockets is building up, I unpack with my therapist
Then tears appear on my face, I'm broke, I break
And before I fall to my faith, I hope, I pray
Then I'm confident temporarily 'til reality start to wear on me
Incompetence begin to stare at me in the mirror unbearably
And just when I thought I was straight, I fold, I'm fake
My drawbridge dropping your way and y'all drown in a moat, I'm safe
To a degree, I stay dangerous, mafioso, they afraid of us
Humble as much as arrogant since my first conversation with Punch
Touch down and make the ground break, I'm dope, I'm great
Pavement cracked, but just wait, I rose to space
[Chorus]
That's just dum-dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum (It's just I, myself and me)
Dum-dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum (It's just I, myself and me)
Dum-dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum (It's just I, myself and me)
Dum-dum-dum, that's just
Aye-yah-yah, aye-yah-yah
Aye-yah-yah, aye-yah-yah
[Outro]
Just like you too (Like you)
Just like you too
Just like you too (Soulo)
Just like you too
