Matt Simons – With you Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
Honest where I start from
I try and impart my wisdom
A combination of truth and fear
That’s the way it’s always been
My father and his before him
At times we hurt the …
[Verse 1:]
Honest where I start from
I try and impart my wisdom
A combination of truth and fear
That’s the way it’s always been
My father and his before him
At times we hurt the …
[Verse 1]
Oh, pity me
I’m so alone and so blue
My friends have all gone away
Their friendliness too
[Pre-Chorus]
It was I on my own
With no need to belong
And I wanted to die
That’s when …
[Verse 1]
Got some money, got some cash
I’m rich and now I’m sad
And I wonder if I’m sad about the money that I have
Got some boats on my plane
At the hotel …
[Intro]

Polishin’ a goddamn sword, you know what I’m sayin’?
Polishin’ a sword (Uh, uh, uh, uh)
Concrete Family, Concrete Industries, Concrete Boys up, always, never down
(And this beat from Cash, not from …

If I was the question would you be my answer?
If I was the music would you be the dancer?
If I was the student would you be the teacher?
If I was the sinner would you be the preacher?1
Would you be my (dun dun dun)
I still got a lot of shit to learn2 ill admit it
I still got a lot of shit to learn ill admit it
Feeling like a digit in a system, just another stupid number3
I don’t know, know, know
Everything is twisted i can feel it4
It’s another stupid summer where everything is cold, cold, cold5
And we can do it on our own
Head up to a place where baby no one goes6
A rocket full of liquor, a Polaroid for pictures7
Baby you should stop me, before I lose control8
How a perfect a person am I, go through your purse and put on your disguise9
You see the stars, but they just see the skies
And you see my scars what do they see?10
If I was the question would you be my answer?
If I was the music would you be the dancer?
If I was the student would you be the teacher?
If I was the sinner would you be the preacher?
Would you be my (dun dun dun)
I still got a lot of shit to learn ill admit it
I still got a lot of shit to learn ill admit it
Got your finger on the trigger and you aiming at the mirror11
Don’t you shoot that ain’t you, nah12
Cause on the outside you pretend but you hurting in the inner
What’s the truth now13
How a perfect a person am I, go through your purse and put on your disguise
You see the stars, but they just see the skies
And you see my scars what do they see?
If I was the question would you be my answer?
If I was the music would you be the dancer?
If I was the student would you be the teacher?
If I was the sinner would you be the preacher?
Would you be my (dun dun dun)
I still got a lot of shit to learn ill admit it
I still got a lot of shit to learn ill admit it
