[English]

Was it the fact we come from the same womb

Got the same ears but we ain't singing the same tune

Half my life I saw you as a role model

Used to know my Pops said he always drank them whole bottles

Maybe the times you saw his face when you looked at mine

And I was too young to recognize a troubled mind

But now it's all so clear

We share the same blood and in a way we share the same fears

But I was never like you

I kept telling myself evil was unlike you

Until I had a dream where you told me I should watch out

Then I woke up and everything blocked out

Guess we're turning tables and walking out

(Walking out, walking out)

Gotta act like I don't know you now

(Know you now, tables turning)

This is for the homie that let me down

(Let me down, let me down)

Hope I don't see you 'round

(See you around, tables turning)

Shit I can never tell if this was a test

You might as well kissed me on the cheek and stab me in the chest

And I will shake your hand, we're made from the same sand

I can try to, but I will never understand God's plan

We are not the same

And I could never wish you dead but I wish you the same pain that runs

Through my veins

I thought I had you all figured out

And always assumed that we were walking the same route

Never had a doubt, my heart kept bleeding and it still do

All it took for me was to catch a glimpse of the real you

Wish I could heal you but it hurts me to say

The hurt and the pain is the reason why I'm turning away

Guess we're turning tables and walking out

(Walking out, walking out)

Gotta act like I don't know you now

(Know you now, tables turning)

This is for the homie that let me down

(Let me down, let me down)

Hope I don't see you 'round

(See you around, tables turning)

Guess I don't know you no more

Guess you don't know me no more

Turning...
