Some Things Stay the Same

All my thoughts are runnin'

Runnin' 'round inside my head

Emotions keep coming

They're keeping me from thinking straight

Thought it would be different

When I got my things in place

Stuck in this commotion

How come I have passed this, yeah?

I wanna either be somebody else

Another me that doesn't need your help

But if I'm honest, I don't think we got it

I tried to change the things you never liked

Tried to make this better, make this right

But we're the same, even though I changed

Really made an effort, promised I would change

But some things stay the same

Wanted to do better, wanted to be great

But some things stay the same

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Some things stay the same

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

(Some things stay the same)

Started a life in the country

I can say yes to that

Whatever way you want me

I learn it all and now adapt

Even if I changed up

Everything except my name

We would still be fighting

'Cause I am still the same

I wanna either be somebody else

Another me that doesn't need your help

But if I'm honest, I don't think we got it

I tried to change the things you never liked

Tried to make this better, make this right

But we're the same, even though I changed

Really made an effort, promised I would change

But some things stay the same

Wanted to do better, wanted to be great

But some things stay the same

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Some things stay the same

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Some things stay the same

I can change the way I am

The way I talk, the way I stand

It doesn't really matter

'Cause I'll still be the same

I can change the way I am

The way I talk, the way I stand

It doesn't really matter

'Cause I'll still be the same

Really made an effort, promised I would change

But some things stay the same

Wanted to do better, wanted to be great

But some things stay the same
