Songtexte What You Told Me - Stibs feat. Siphiwe

Somedays I can hear you
Telling me to leave it in the rear view
And maybe it was made to be
As I think of what you'd say to me
I had my heart broken I was flat broke
You said to level up, I could have both
You gotta make it up as you go
Save enough for the lows, change it up and you grow

You taught me how to see the game
And why we need the pain, look at all that we became
Take your skill set, don't settle, set the price
And do it on your own, they can't take their own advice
Don't stray from the path, and we're moving straight through
Always stay on your craft, you don't get a take two
Stay smooth, make moves
Stay away from fake dudes
Cause they make mistakes too
Make a way and make do

Still do it for my homies
Remember what you told me
Understand now that I'm grown
And I'm tryna be a man of my own
Still do it for my homies
Remember what you told me
Understand now that I'm grown
And I'm tryna be a man of my own

And whether you've missed or you're on a roll
You win the most chips when you're bout to fold
How to take your time, how to hold
Out of sight, out of mind if it's out of your control
And it was shown never told
It was known never guessed
Can't ignore, be the best
It was more never less
Haven't seen you ever rest

If it's not about me I don't need to intervene
How to dream, how to lead, everything that's in between
Don't depend on your team, on your own in the end
And that's why you feel alone in a room full of friends
Remember where you came from, earn your name
Let it turn to flames, everything will burn the same
And I still return the same
Cause you showed me how to work a million dollars worth of game

Still do it for my homies
Remember what you told me
Understand now that I'm grown
And I'm tryna be a man of my own
Still do it for my homies
Remember what you told me
Understand now that I'm grown
And I'm tryna be a man of my own
