This is about an old friend that let me down who virtually got jealous of my new-found success and said some things that crossed many personal boundaries.
I was doing a co-write with Jaden (my a&r), and Josh Fountain, and we didn’t know what to write about, then this exchange with my friend hap...
[Verse 1]
What happened to you?
I don't know you anymore
You're drowning in your sorrow and I washed ashore
How could I see it coming, you showed me the door
I'm headed for the sky, you're stuck there on the floor
[Pre-Hook]
Lashed out, said some shit about me I couldn't believe
Not gonna sit around, let anything get to me
Cashed out, knowing your two cents don't come for free
Simple minded people saying simple minded things
[Hook]
Some people look for trouble
Some people want to feel free
Some people worry about what other people think
It's only human nature
But you can hate on me
As hard as people can be
It won't bother me
[Verse 2]
Don't worry 'bout me, asking if I'll be okay
I never needed greedy hands to come my way
I gave you everything and all you did was take
Now I can tell the difference between true and fake
[Pre-Hook]
Lashed out, said some shit about me I couldn't believe
Not gonna sit around, let anything get to me
Cashed out, knowing your two cents don't come for free
Simple minded people saying simple minded things
[Hook]
Some people look for trouble
Some people want to feel free
Some people worry about what other people think
It's only human nature
But you can hate on me
As hard as people can be
It won't bother me
[Post-Hook]
It won't bother me
It won't bother me
[Pre-Hook]
Lashed out, said some shit about me I couldn't believe
Not gonna sit around, let anything get to me
Cashed out, knowing your two cents don't come for free
Simple minded people saying simple minded things
[Hook]
Some people look for trouble
Some people want to feel good
Some people worry about what other people think (what other people)
It's only human nature
But you can hate on me
It's hard as people can be (people can be)
[Post-Hook]
It won't bother me
It won't bother me
It won't bother me
It won't bother me
[Ending]
It's hard as people can be
It won't bother me

over a time where i had issues with friends, the van for my tour broke down (twice), i got scammed on a $1000 coachella ticket, got stood up on tinder (lol), had major sound issues at shows, i thought why not write a POSITIVE song about it all.
