An Other Way (another way) ft. Micci Reiss Lyrics

This game was so much easier in high school

Rocking the crowd was really making your girl move

And everybody wanted Vince, the celebrity

Just a chance to say, hey, they really knew me

Well fooie to all them childish dreams to linger on

Inked paper that begged me to still hold on

My baby mama as my best and worst advocate

Cheering me on, just a triple, a monthly check

No disrespect, but did you ever really

love a nigga

Or just rumors that V might be something bigger

Don't get me wrong, I ain't tryna soil your mama's name

With pain to make you question everything

And I'm in pain,

Not the type that a kiss can fix

Maybe the church, but they chastise the fact I spit

Would plead the fifth, but my name is my alias

Plus, I'm tired of trying to hide who V really is

It's bullshit

Oh me, oh my, I need another way Nightfall, sunrise, I need a brighter day

Oh me, oh my, I need another way Nightfall, sunrise, I need a brighter day

Life is so tempting, but first, where goes these broken pieces

Just as I am, I know, but I'd rather be cleaner

And first impressions so important that I shower gifts

Buried my talent for a minute, hope the Lord forgives

Cause I'm steady, moving along, facing each obstacle

And you're so busy, I can't be bothersome

I fought my pride, but the owner still two letters

P.S., he's worthless, unless he strives for better

In other words, I have no choice but to stand for something

Instead, I'm dropping lines, fronting like results is nothing

To me,

When in reality, I'm staying faded

Rather experience this pain and an altered state

But I can't alternate or blur the lines or waste the time

My problem's practice, patience, and then they wait for I

That's why they call it baking

They wait till you rise, ice you, then serve you later

Oh me, oh my, I need another way Nightfall, sunrise, I need a brighter day

Oh me, oh my, I need another way Nightfall, sunrise, I need a brighter day

How long is the verse I'm on? I'm on the verge of bursting

Creating a new version, a new person A name written in stone curtain

A new curse, it's a new universe to throw my words in

It's been a long time coming,

I'm still running

Everything I've done has been shot down, still gunning

It used to be so easy to do this A true MC only had to make his mark on the music

It's on paper, the only way to lose it was to lose it

I only wish I knew this It's been like two years since it made sense

Stick vocal, make sure to make my bass dense

I look into my beat, I wanna see somethingI never seen

Say something I don't really mean

What do I mean to the game?

You should be past this

But as it is, fans only hear actions

So I'm acting

Backtracking back to when this was magic

Damn, it used to be magic

So much to say, that's okay,

I'll bite it back I've got some changes to make, so in light of that

Oh me, oh my, I need another way Nightfall, sunrise, I need a brighter day

Oh me, oh my, I need another way Nightfall, sunrise, I need a brighter day
