Like I’m Nobody

[Intro]
'Cause you treat me like I’m nobody
'Cause you treat me like I'm nobody (Like I’m nothing at all)
Nobody (Like I'm nothing at all)

[Verse 1]
Ain't it funny, how when you text - I text back?
But when I text you, it's like "What is that?"
Huh, it's like I never existed
Like I'm lost in space, sending signals out in the distance
'Cause you never get it, and if you do, you'll forget it
Yeah I get it, I ain’t worth the reply, so admit it
And I ain’t hopping lily pads, so you don't wanna ribbit
’Cause when you treating me like I'm nobody, honey, the shit gets pretty old these days
Here's my ass, you can kiss it
'Cause you distant when it comes to us actually kicking
Sending a random text at 1:35 in the morning
But I don’t play like that no more, I'm grown and I'm snoring
In my bed these days, on a decent-type schedule
While you still twisting routines up like a pretzel
Meeting up with God-knows-who doing God-knows-what
But God ain't the only one, girl, I know what's up
And I remember when you used to lie straight to my face
And panic when I reach for your phone, girl, take a break
I bet you told people I was unstable and unable
To live a normal life, but that's a fable still you treat me-

[Chorus]
Like I'm nobody
Yeah, you treat me like I'm nobody (Like I'm nothing at all)
'Cause you treat me like I'm nobody (Who's he?)
You still treat me like I'm nobody (Like I'm nothing at all)

[Verse 2]
So do I sound like a person with a fucked-up mind?
Or does it sound like an angel just touched these lines?
I remember just to get to you, I'd cut these lines
Yeah I left out a lot of truth, but fuck this time
And I ain't gon' put you on blast but it must be divine
So hmm, let me take my time
'Cause you know the truth, and I know the truth
So who cares if they know the truth? What's the use?
'Cause between me and you, it's between me and you
And it's forever gon' remain between me and you
See, between me and you, I'm able to forgive
Unable to manipulate, just take and give back the same back that I received and return
It's like a tape so good I'd rather break than return
But what I went through with you's what it takes to learn
The reality of life at the stake I've earned
And the passion and the pain are balled in one word:
Love, and now I know what that means
So thank you for the lesson, even though that it seems
You treat me like I ain't real, like you woke from a dream

[Chorus]
Like I'm nobody
Yeah, you treat me like I'm nobody (Like I'm nothing at all, like I'm nothing)
'Cause you treat me like I'm nobody (Damn, I thought I was somebody)
You still treat me like I'm nobody (Like I'm nothing at all)

[Verse 3]
But past all the said & done, one day we may meet
With the same old smile and hug, we may greet
'Cause the pain of the present's now a thing of the past
And we can talk about it all and just sit back and laugh
But it's crazy though, something I'll never forget
And we'll always have love for each other, that's it
Even if you don't say it, I know it's impossible
And you gon' realize it when you move on through of a lot of fools
You may have your good times, your ups and downs
But DNA forever gon' remain with the crown
And one might even be listening right now
You ain't ever gon' take my belt, boy, put it down
Even if you the one that's currently putting it down
I'm the one with the legacy and profound sound
'Cause I got and do something that you'll never achieve
Beautiful words to a woman from a true emcee
You might be like "Who he?" But better yet "Who she?"
I know we're better than you'll ever know it, times three
I ain't no wannabe rapper, son, you're the wannabe
And I'm the L-Y-R-I-C-I-S-T

[Chorus]
Like I'm nobody (Hah, yo)
Ha, yeah, you still treat me like I'm nobody (Like I'm nothing at all)
'Cause you treat me like I'm nobody
You still treat me like I'm nobody (Like I'm nothing at all)
