Jelly Roll – Same Old Thang lyrics

[Verse 1]
Deep in the darkness
Where no one goes
You got yo problems
And I got mine

We're somewhere rollin
Down an old back road
And down in my soul
Wish I could bottle up time

Feels like a lullaby
And lately when I’m dreaming
I've been reaching for the moon
Feels like a lullaby
But waking up in heaven
Is when I'm waking up with you

Dear mister dear mister
Man in the space suit
I’ve been reaching for God
Dear mister dear mister
Can you take two
I think I'm leaving it all

[Chorus]
I'm so tired of feeling chained
And Lord knows I'll never change
Just sit here in all my shame
And I keep doing the same old thang

If I'm so sick of being burned
Then why do I chase that flame
And I act like the lesson's are learned
But I keep doing the same old thang

[Verse 2]
Pleasure of love
Only lasts for a moment
The pain of love
Lasts a whole life time
It's my last chance
And God I know this
Lord I need you
Let your light shine

We live for acceptance
Die for rejection
I've accepted it’s hard to
Even look at my reflection

Lord won’t you take over me
Come get a hold of me
They were selling wolf tickets
So I sold her dreams

So it seems
It's under control now
I can’t seem to slow down
I'm about to blow out
My eyes rollin
In the back of my head
They looked at me
Like I came back from the dead
That's when I said...

[Chorus]
I'm so tired of feeling chained
And Lord knows I’ll never change
Just sit here in all my shame
And I keep doing the same old thang

If I'm so sick of being burned
Then why do I chase that flame
And I act like the lesson's are learned
But I keep doing the same old thang

Lord knows that you could feel my pain
As I sit here in all my shame
I'm still shackled in all these chains
And I keep doing the same old thang

Dear mister dear mister
Man in the space suit
I've been reaching for God
Dear mister dear mister
Can you take two
I think I'm leaving it all

I'm so tired of feeling chained
And Lord knows I'll never change
Just sit here in all my shame
And I keep doing the same old thang

If I'm so sick of being burned
Then why do I chase that flame
And I act like the lesson's are learned
But I keep doing the same old thang
