[B.o.B] Whatever happened to Bobby Ray, he used to be here for us Then he got famous and left all of his fans in the dust We never hear from you, you're constantly changing And your relatives always miss you at family occasions And your mother misses you too Since all the fortune you've been too busy recording Now she feels unimportant and your daddy's been going through it Since he lost his mother The least you could do is call him and show him, you support him I never thought you would sell out You're becoming so cocky I asked you for a picture after your show You walked right by me, I'm like Aint this the dude that said that it aint about the price tag Now on your records all that you do is brag Come on Bob, I thought you was better than that dog What happened to Cloud 9 and Generation Lost You were my idol, just when I thought I give up on everything I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)
I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...) (Melody, melody, melody...)
[Bobby Ray] Whatever happened to B.o.B. he once was my favourite I swear to God that I had all of his mixtapes on my player He was hood, but sooo different at the same time It was like a breath of fresh air, everytime he rhymed And everybody was on him and the world fell in love The girls, the money, the lifestyle All the above I guess he's stopped giving a fuck For all of his little people With your shades on, we can't even see you Is that what happens, when somebody makes it off of rapping They taste the fame and change likes it just automatic Where's the integrity? you on that other shit You don't even sound the same, I liked your other shit But we'll stand beside you, cause somewhere deep inside you There's more than what meets the eye I swear on the Bible you were my idol Just when I thought I give up on everything I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)
I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...) (Melody, melody, melody...)
I watched my whole life change in a couple of years Who woulda ever thought I woulda caught the world by the ears I swear, this shit is so much bigger than I had figured But if it wasn't meant to be this wouldn't be my career It's like, people only see it, the way it appears But they never see the ropes and the pulleys and the gears Blood sweat and tears, we cry but always swear there's tears In the middle of this rap game on the battle field All of these shock jock interviews, tryna phone me You never know who's gonna play you and make you look phoney I live and die for my team, these niggas are more than my homies We put it all on the line, we gave up all our belongings for this rap shit Cause at the end of the day, it aint just rap shit I call it making a way for our survival Just when I thought I gave up on everything I dreamed about this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)
I dreamed about this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...) (Melody, melody, melody...) I dreamed about this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)
