[Chorus: Gaidaa]

I feel like a stranger

Tryin' to face what's left of my own

And there is no later, too many changes

I'm tryna grow


[Verse 1: Gaidaa]

I thought I knew all the colors and the hues

Thought I had it figured out

'Cause in my head it seemed so true

But I really don't

There's so much left untouched

Still figuring out what

But I'm closer than I was


[Bridge: Gaidaa]

Feels like I stopped running away

Once I recognized my own faith

In too deep, was stuck in this maze

That I don't know what to do, oh


[Chorus: Gaidaa]

I feel like a stranger

Tryin' to face what's left of my own

And there is no later, too many changes

I'm tryna grow


[Verse 2: Saba]

You feel like real life

Or my imagination of what real life should be

Is as clear as the sky could be

You the future, all I could see

So, who knew you would frighten me?

I don't pretend to have the answers like talkin' to Socrates

And I'm usually in your head, but you're growin apart from me

I think lately you getting farther and farther apart from me

And I know I'm a part of you, and once you are a part of me

A part of me think that I'm makin' excuses like "Pardon me"

For you or for the future, you foolish for tarnishin'

I'm torn apart thinkin' about independence autonomy

With my head up higher and higher, the ceilin' get hard to reach

Every three months you a new person, this feelin' is quarterly

Around here it get hard to stay grounded like carpentry

I lost me once, it got me feeling like I got an alter ego

Goin' 'til it's gone like one on one, it's all for keeps

A lot of different sides to this story, but they all of me


[Chorus: Gaidaa]

I feel like a stranger

Tryin' to face what's left of my own

And there is no later, too many changes

I'm tryna grow


[Outro: Jarreau Vandal]
