THAT’S NICE BRO Songtext
Check
Take three
Turn that down a little
That′s nice bro
That's nice bro
That′s great man
I'm so happy for ya
Had a fight with my guys the other day
Eyes on the prize, so no looking the other way
Problem with me? That's what everybody say
If you heated I ain′t looking to sauté, he tells me
Your priorities are obviously misconstrued
How can you walk away from bro
Like your path a different hue?
You colour me unimportant
All according to the dormant plea of your vice
Would I ever be nice?
Your pride and condescension contradicts
The need to hide without a fix
Without a thought or woe
For any foe not even those who are your own
I need to get this off my chest
It′s really for the best
Know our days are numbered, and our slumber might hit soon
How do you make it through?
Do you ever feel guilty for shitty things that you do?
Feel alive through numbers? That's a dying trend
Is it really that hard to act yourself a real friend? (friend, friend)
I can′t respond
Strived to be a better person, so I had to move on
Kept myself so busy, 24 7 on appearances
So I forgot appearances to people that be hearing this
First show in the city had about seventy
Not a year later, lotta those people enemies
Empathy empty, glitz and glamour glistening
I just wanna tell my stories, nobody listening
Back then, a lot of people in my corner
Don't appreciate that? And you putting up these borders
Arbitrary and void, man you really giving orders
To your family and friends whose patience grows shorter?
I don′t wanna see your show? That's okay
I don′t wanna play your song? That's okay
You don't owe me anything, and I just gotta say
That I′m thankful that y′all were even there in the first place
Funny though, if I think it through
That show the last time that we in the same room
The last time all of us part of the same group
Speaking from the heart, this is how it's coming through
I did some friends wrong
Bounce the meet and greets, and my schedule Pong
I told my guys an idea for the song
But now they didn′t wanna play along
'Cause they telling me
That′s nice bro
That's nice bro
That′s great man
So happy for ya
That's nice bro
That's nice bro
That′s great man
I′m so very happy for ya
Had a fight with her yesterday
It started out with holding you like any other day
But I was holding onto something left us both astray
Heavy heart, but how much does it weigh?
Play the tape
Rewind to a different time
I'm in a bind, with all of my past lives
Never really passed the vibe
Check
When I was younger, flexible integrity
Gratitude practice and insecurity
Surely they′d never see I'm just a little shitty
Little bit of me hopes that still, forget the pity
Had to count ′em out, and new additions new successes
Count on me deleting texts and feeling over reckless
Those are loose lips, who's this?
I respond the message
Lifetimes and lifetimes of bad intentions
Sweet or sour, always lead to a bitter end
Type of guy that meets you and we instantly best friends
But self aware enough to know I′m often abrasive
So face it, self-efface and I fucking waste it
Serial cheater, I meet her like I'm the cleaner?
Not a janitor or a manager, not the choir preacher
Drinking poison grudges, hope the other person drop
So I stopped. Met V, the problems just swapped
Running in the park, all smiles by the ocean
Inside jokes, and no gutters while we bowling
Situationship, so I could keep myself open
Couldn't commit, but these crimes left you broken
Lower the shield when I′m looking for approval
Ignorant to blocking out feelings, my refusal
To fuse that together and well, there′s no excuse
I'm sorry for whatever good that would do
And that′s true (baby)
Smart, funny, kind
You say what's on your mind
I′m sorry that it took me till the end to mention you in a rhyme
And if I'm only honest in the place I record
I′m also sorry that I kept it all in the floorboards
Here's the crowbar, pry it, try it
You won't like what you find, but I promise if you mind it
Then maybe this is binding
Or baby if you out then tell me ′cause I′ve been here crying
Massacre with a mission
You fucking up my addiction
If we've fucked, that′s sedition
You lying! Who am I kidding
Call it puppy love but it's fully grown so whatever
Planning all our picnics, you control the weather
Had to come to terms that I will always love you
You will never love me
That′s just how that shit be
A decade of relationships in a single verse
Had the nerve to play it for her
She respond like
That's nice bro
That′s nice bro
That's great man
So happy for ya
That's nice bro
That′s nice bro
That′s great man
So
What do you think?
If I walk out of the booth and was struck by lightning
Had a heart attack, or took my last breath
Shock you the truth was less exciting?
And was it said all from the chest?
Fight in the parking lot harkening back to times I'd do it
If today is the day, i′mma go and choose it
Wind in my fingers, whispers, only one way through it
That's why I wince at the dreams I win, cause I ain′t lucid
Talk on hard times candidly
Mirror like "you dead to me"
Legacy? All I'm seeing is pedigree
Growing up macaroni, wanna change it to ketamine?
Teary eyed reflection couldn′t find a remedy
Logotherapy telling me I gotta find the recipe
Übermensch on the fence
And you Freudian fucks are scaring me
I'm overtime, the penalty box empty
Five for fighting, I'm a ′99 Gretzky
Not the Wayne that you seeing today
Maybe hit a new record I′ll be okay
He's no Jermaine, but hey
He put himself in the fray
Put himself in harms way, from the farm to the bay
Don′t mind the delay, see the scars on display
If I don't start today, I think we′ll part ways
Ten-leg parlay I've had some dark days
Let me tell you the truth
This was gonna be the last thing I ever do
Hear about his bad fate all on the news
Pray at least the album got good reviews
So I don′t rap about rapping
I only really care about life that's happening
If you don't, please spare, stay Chaplin
Chappell Roan, I′m the giver to those grown
World so cold, hot to go on home
Where the late nights spent with pages warm, wait
It wasn′t perfect, but my rage ignored
16, 32, 64?
I don't even count the bars anymore
I go until I got no more
Google Notes character limit, switched to paper and spells
If I can′t type out my thoughts how will they sell me to BetterHelp?
And why'd you fuck someone else?
Or am I deluding myself?
Am I just fucking stupid?
Jump off Orion′s Belt
I knew it was Fun and Games, that song feeling out of touch
Promoted when I wrote it, and not liking the job much
Wasn't loving life, thought maybe it wasn′t worth it
Old burden of becoming a new person
Found a new home, and that's when I met Jordan
Stand-in, Air Bud, dawg that unimportant
Worked security and film, my career was shortened
'Cause either way, we were not talking Norton
Showed him my music, the hook was intention
He heard a single lyric and then booked me my first session
Time pass and things change
Lust for the daily, often lost in our ways
Studio alone now, where was my impact?
If my life was over would these words be played back?
Here with all my friends, see some stripes in the way back
Eye of the tiger or the thrill of the Maybach?
Need to say this or my story never get told
It′s not that I′m important, I just think you should know
If you alone know, Arc de Triomphe you own
Or go where the rivers flow, you are both Joans
My life I've felt like I′m not liked, know that's not true
But always craving new connections like there′s something to prove
Cast stones when I don't know you
Contradictions in this song, got some growing to do
Acceptance our obsession
Class inequity makes a culture divide the very first lesson
Can′t afford a home, where's the room for reflection?
Go read any comment section
Look, let me say what I mean
Put in 100%, I'll only ever be half of me
Every tragedy, to go on happily
If I feel every Beat, imma go Hana-bi
Yeah "Here ye, here ye!" Leviathan reads
"You are not worthy, so on your knees
Every leader filled with tyranny
Need to accept that′s how it be"
In a state like this, too much opportunity
For any echo chamber to devolve into cruelty
World tryna poison me, but under scrutiny
Still go out find real community
Imaginary friends long after childhood
Show tonight? Ah, wish I could
Too bad I′ll be too busy going too Lizzie
On all my channels, I'm not talking Disney
Not talking reels on my feed
Man I feel what I need
Need to feel, feed on talking something real with me
Affirmations, good company
2020 vision, life′s Grand Prix
Ignorance too easy
This ain't a ten minute song just to say "be lazy", ah
Half the world now Dick Cheney
The other half Dick Tracy, online daily
Most days don′t feel like winning
'64 the last time the tree was giving
And we weren′t alive, so why try?
Don't have a full answer, but here's my reply
Look forward to the beginning
Saw a new us, now life worth living
Made a lot of change, but never stopped listening
′Cause one phrase still ringing
That′s nice bro
That's nice bro
That′s great man
I'm so happy for ya
That′s nice bro
Yeah, that's nice bro
Yeah, that′s great man
It's all gonna happen for ya
I think I prefer it this way
Take three
Turn that down a little
That′s nice bro
That's nice bro
That′s great man
I'm so happy for ya
