Strange
Smoov-E Lyrics

Strange views in a new city
Feeling disoriented and out of place in unfamiliar surroundings

Awkwardly alone feels shitty
Feeling uncomfortable and unhappy due to being isolated

Ain't from here it can get tricky
Being from somewhere else can present challenges

A lack of language to describe my uh
Difficulty expressing oneself due to a language barrier

I'm packing pain inside the uh
Carrying emotional distress within oneself

A separate logic
Different ways of thinking and reasoning

Cultures clash
Differences in cultural practices can create conflict

When there's snakes in the lawn
When there are hidden dangers

We burn the grass
Take action to remove the danger

I'm on another
In a different state of mind

No I'm on a other
In a completely different situation

It's not my fault
I am not to blame for the situation

I don't really love her
Lacking true feelings for someone

Under the blue lie
Living under a false reality

I know it's a new light
Seeing things in a different way

I'm not tryin' to jump ship
Not trying to abandon a situation

I'm just tryin' to take flight
Trying to escape a difficult circumstance

You're sayin' that I did
Others are blaming me

I'm sayin' that I might
Admitting the possibility of fault

Dunno if I'm wrong
Unsure if I am at fault

Dunno if I'm right
Uncertain of my actions

No advice in a foreign land
Lacking guidance in an unfamiliar place

The further I go
The more I distance myself

The closer I am
The more connected I become

But still I stand
Persisting despite challenges

Here I am
Present in the moment

But where am I
Uncertain of my location, both physically and metaphorically

I can't answer questions like that
Unable to provide answers or clarity

Not at this time
Currently unable to answer

I'm pacin' I ain't patient
Feeling restless and anxious

I'm pushin' they pushin' it back
Encountering resistance

Potentially I should have been past the point
Possibly I should have moved forward by now

That I am pinned up at
Feeling stuck in a situation

If you don't look back
Not reflecting on your past actions

You don't know what you did wrong
Not recognizing your past mistakes

But don't live in the past
Avoid dwelling on past events

And look back for too long
Don't spend too much time living in the past

Not a day goes by
Thinking about something constantly

That I don't I
Reflect on one's self and life choices

I look my self in the eye
Facing oneself and being honest

And I ask why
Questioning the reasoning behind one's actions

What was my purpose
Wondering about one's reason for existence

And was it all worth this
Questioning if the struggles were worth the outcome

I know that I'm here
Recognizing one's existing situation

But how do I word it
Difficult to express in words

Let me get back to that
Need time to think and process

It's just been back to back
Dealing with a series of difficult situations

You know I can't act
Unable to pretend or act differently

I know I can't pack
Unable to leave the situation behind

I traveled all night though
Enduring a long and difficult journey

Just to see the lights glow
Going through hardship to see something beautiful

Just to see the lights go
Seeing something fleeting and temporary

Away from here
Wanting to escape the current situation

Lost in a premier
Feeling uncertain and lost in a top-tier situation

That she shot
Something that someone created

I was unaware
Lacking knowledge about something

That's when I seen you there
Noticing something or someone unexpectedly

They closin' the curtains
Ending a situation, event or opportunity

That's when the show ends
The end of a performance or situation

I know that they workin'
Acknowledging the hard work of others

It might be pretend
Something may not be real

Out on the sidewalk
Outside on the pavement

That's where they high talk
Engaging in conversations related to drugs

Pullover to park
Stopping and parking a vehicle

Hotbox in the IROC
Smoking marijuana in a specific type of vehicle

Stuck in the telephone booth
Feeling trapped in a small, enclosed space

Just trying to call you the truth
Attempting to relay an honest message

Can't tell if I'm in Tokyo
Uncertain of one's location

Or if I'm in Beirut
Possibly in a dangerous and chaotic place
