Not The Same

[Hook: Cam Groves]
Things changed since I got in the game
I look back and it's not the same
I mean I'm not complaining, I got a lot to say
But some days wanna stop and just walk away
I think beyond hip hop in Maine
Then I wake up in the morning like not today
I'm thinking long term, need my options weighed
As the clock tick tocks away, yo it's not the same

[Verse 1: Cam Groves]
I love music and pursuing it still
But these days only proving that I'm losing my will
Keep the needle on the groove and improving my skill
But it isn't lucrative enough to cover the bills
I'm too old to be chasing trends
I'm too old to be making friends
I wonder where the days in the basement went
But life changed and became about making ends
And now I'm stressed when I'm doing whatever
So I learn that the less that I'm doing, the better
So I rhyme genuine, stay truer than leather
And give a fuck about fame, only two of the letters
I think about it now a decent amount
But it isn't quite my time to say peace and be out
Maybe it's the season give me reason to doubt
But some days I don't even feel like leaving the house, it goes

I'm thinking long term, need my options weighed
As the clock tick tocks away, yo it's not the same

[Verse 2: Cam Groves]
I got a real job, don't love it as dear
I'm like twelve years deep in that other career
Every time I wanna quit, I'm presented with fear
'Cause I'm tryna buy a house by the end of the year
I'm scared of hell of the day, but it's well underway
What the hell can I say? I'm overwhelmed, underpaid
I wish in one case something fell into place
Place an L to the face, say the hell with the race
I got dope flows, got 'em by the boatload
Will something cool ever happen? Man I hope so
I ain't tryna sing the blues, no popos
Sick of always tryna please the people that I don't know
'Cause what rappers do for fans now is insane
I'm feeling more out of touch like an inmate
Every situation two sided like a yin yang
If one thing in life stays the same, it's that things change
