Текст песни Gatsby - Samora Pinderhughes

I built a castle out of dreams
And pretty scenes
Woke up and it was missing
It wasn′t real
It wasn't real
I loved a woman
Who turned out to be
An ideal thing
I woke up and she was different
Oh well,
It wasn′t real
It wasn't real

I been saying things I don't believe
I been doin things that just ain′t me
(Or is it me?)
I been knowing that this can′t continue
But I keep on living the same way

I dreamt of a future that's so far ahead
I dreamt of the past and I′d rather pretend
It isn't real
It can′t be real
A version of self that erases the mirror
I change my appearance
And go out for dinner with people
That hurt to be noticed
And they talk just alike
And they argue for thrills
Yeah It's never too real

I been saying things I don′t believe
I been doin things that just ain't me
(Or is it me?)
I been knowing that this can't continue
But I keep on preaching the same things

But, you didn′t know me then
I wasn′t nobody's friend
I wanted what all men want
To be in good company
To run around breaking things
And never think about fixing
Can′t let it go now
Won't let it go

I been living the type of life I see in movies
It′s not sustainable
I been practicing on a new accent
New stories
Might be more relatable
How did I end up with the same damn clothes on
Thought I was so individual
Went to the East
Made sure to take some pictures
You know it's all about the visuals
(Pretty Pretty thang)

I keep saying things I don′t believe
I keep doin things that just ain't me
(Or is it me?)
I keep slipping on my independence
But I keep on doing the same things
I been saying things I don't believe
I been doin things that just ain′t me
(Or is it me?)
I been knowing that this can′t continue
But I keep on living the same way
