jon protege - what it's like كلمات أغنية

[verse 1: jon protege]
i wonder if we could’ve connected better
with more understanding, real quality time together
sharing purpose and convictions
the bigger picture unrestricted
but maybe that’s what happens with traditions
all that gets passed down like religion
eternal punishment turning faith into a prison
no coloring outside the lines
just arrangements to meet the divine
maybe that was the start of living in fear
why i turned to influences outside
i felt a growing distance from the first love i was ever given
even with all you did provide
no one could’ve carried the gravity of my ambitions
a different kind of urgency with the stakes i was playing at
a way was paved for me but i still chose to make my path
i couldn’t play it safe or second_guess my desires, i’m grateful for all a son could never repay
even the flaws in how we were raised ‘cause that
forced me to find my way at last
now i know the hazards you wrestled to save me from
and my misplaced anger
but if home was ever where the hate was
it may be ‘cause i made myself a stranger
lost in the shuffle, barriers made of pride
beyond the years the sp_ce between generations can stretch so wide
and so much gets misunderstood
i learned you sacrificed more than i ever could
maybe that’s why i’m not ready to settle down for good
maybe i just can’t be like you
had to heal my wounds
the world i can’t see like you
made plans i need to see mine through
[chorus: jon protege]
and i’ve made my own mistakes
figuring it out for myself too
but no matter what i could change
i’ll never know what it’s like to be you
i hope i’m getting this right
‘cause i don’t know what it’s like
i don’t know what it’s like

[verse 1: jon protege]
if i know enough to do better than they did
then maybe i made it
i couldn’t be more thankful
your mother was strong enough to have you
that’s why i’m working overnight like that
so i can give you more than the life i had
show them what you’re made of
remember unreciprocated love returns where it came from
you’ll be easier on yourself once you
become easier on other people, even those that begrudge you
progress is uncomfortable and some things won’t be up to you
always be humble, know who you are don’t let anyone take it from you
and cut them off if their support only goes as far as they want you to
and you’ll be using terms i won’t even know
i hope i’m not out of touch, i wonder if my mantras can still be relevant when things ain’t easy though
i’d k!ll whatever’s hurting you
i hope i never contribute to that
if promises teach you hope then i’d rather die than not follow through on that
if i’d ever learned to act selflessly
that was the thought of you propelling me
i’ll be there in a heartbeat
give you the world and what it meant to me
and i don’t want you to be like me
with all the demons i’ve seen
if this world you could perceive like me
then you’d know you’re everything i reaped
[chorus: jon protege]
and i’ve made my own mistakes
figuring it out for myself too
but no matter what i could change
i’ll never know what it’s like to be you
i hope i’m getting this right
‘cause i don’t know what it’s like
i don’t know what it’s like

[outro: jon protege]
and sometimes i think that i’m losing myself
then i get it right back
yeah i get it right back
and sometimes it felt like i’d be unable to pull through
but i was stronger than that
yeah i’m stronger than that
