letra de when i was up - jack rootes

[intro: jack rootes (bobby “blue” bland)]

“yo tellingbeatzz, put that record on. i wanna speak about something quickly.”

(when i was up)
you know, it’s actually quite funny really
(…around)
they didn’t want anything to do with me when i was struggling with my life
(…needed a friend)
so if i ever did blow up, and they tried to come back into my life…
(oh, you could never be found)
this is what i would tell them:

[hook: bobby “blue” bland]

when i was up
you would always come around
but when i needed a friend
oh, you could never be found

[verse 1: jack rootes]

aw sh-t, here we go again
i’m thinkin’ ’bout you, as i grip my pen
busy out makin’ a name for myself
if i ever stopped, it would be bad for my health
but sometimes, i think back to when we were cool
before my friend showed me how much i was a fool
to think you were ever in the same league
as my sk!lls. you’re stuck in a daydream
i’ve been on bbc news, i’ve never backed down
you’re more than likely passed out in a crackhouse
with all the drugs and booze that you do
and all the ex-girlfriends that used to abuse
cool in the studio, at least you would pretend
i let you on a song, and you diss my best friend?!
you don’t care ’bout my achievements, so unpure
so why the f-ck should i care about yours?

[hook: bobby “blue” bland]

[verse 2: jack rootes]

i think about the plans you played like a symphony
i admit, that at times, i did have some sympathy
when i heard about how your father used to beat you
an older brother figure, respect was i’d treat you
went to the cinema, saw fast & furious 7
felt like i was helping you like a dear old reverend
i remember you were close to slitz too
truth be told man, i don’t even want to diss you

but then i think, as i take this beat and play it back
i gave you £20 and you never paid me back!
going to the club, bitin’ at will like you’re cujo!
seemed like trouble followed you wherever you go
you said you’d have my back, thought that was a promise
then i found out from him that you were dishonest
now i care not for the excuses you make
the best thing for you to do now is walk away
[hook: bobby “blue” bland]

[verse 3: jack rootes]

i know this might become a fan annoyance
but you sir, i just feel disappointment
’cause i felt you could’ve been a good father
filled my mother’s life with happiness and laughter
when you married her, way back in 2010
or whenever it was, doesn’t matter in the end
’cause years later, i still feel so bitter
when you made my life then feel sh-tter

there was no excuse to go ahead and bully me
you’re just jealous i wasn’t made from your genes!
i’m her f-cking son, that’s what you should’ve seen
before you made my mother choose him or me!
in the end, i’ve done better than what you might do
i can only hope your son doesn’t turn out like you
you gave me no love, so i give no care!
if i’m going to h-ll, then i’ll see you down there

[hook: bobby “blue” bland] (x2)
