They’ll Watch On

[Verse 1]
Heavy-hearted, so I'm taking the backroad
I remember doing things in the background
I've been doing too much, I can't back down
Shit ain't been the same since I went to my hometown
Maybe I'm just getting a little too old now
Fast lane, no, I cannot slow down
Heavy-hearted, so I'm taking the backroad
I'm done doing all of this shit in the background
Everything I do is back to this
I remember being bad at this
I remember getting mad at this
But now I just feel so at home now
Maybe it's 'cause I got old now
All I know, I gotta hold it down
Even when I got my friends around
I can never seem to shake a frown
Fuck that
I got some friends, you can trust that
My Arcadia brothers, they know that
Some of this shit feel so old hat
Tryna tell me "Oh, you think you all that?"
See something I want and I got that
Don't disrespect me, you got that?
See something I want, and I cop that
Stop tryna be me, can you stop that?
Yeah, In My Own World, can you drop that?
We need something now, can you drop that?

[Bridge]
Interviewer: You mean that doesn't come into play at all when you're selecting the ballads, the standards it's purely on the basis of what turns you on?

Bill Evans: Yeah, absolutely. You know, If I was gonna go that way I'd be a millionaire...

[Chorus]
They'll
Watch-watch on
They'll watch-they'll
Watch-watch on
They'll watch-they'll
Watch-watch on
They'll watch-they'll
Watch-watch on
They'll watch

[Verse 2]
Can see the mistakes on my face
Shouldn't even have made it in the first place
Wonder if I'd still be in first place without them
Would I be in the first place if I didn't have them?
Wouldn't change a thing 'bout myself if I had been
A little more cautious
A little more careful
A little more conscious of myself around them
I still can't believe I even found them
Some friends who can hold it down around them
Still sort of in disbelief and dumbfounded
Believe me, You can't save me
Can only save myself, and I can save my soul, but this ain't help
Oh, something's got to give
Something's got to give
Something's got to give
I know what the past says, the present says around me
That's where the past tense and present tense has found me
Started to do this to get away from my family
Now I'm tryna do this for my family
Believe me, you can't save me
Can only save myself, and I can save my soul, but this ain't help

[Chorus]
They'll
Watch-watch on
They'll watch-they'll
Watch-watch on
They'll watch-they'll
Watch-watch on
They'll watch-they'll
Watch-watch on
They'll watch
