Shit On The Radio (Remember The Days)

You liked me 'till you heard my shit on the radio
Well I hate to say it but pop ain't going solo
You liked me till you heard my shit on the radio
But now I'm just too mainstream for you, oh no

You liked me till you seen me on your TV
Well if you're so low below then why you're watching
You say good things come to those who wait
Well I've been waiting a long time for it

I remember the days
When I was so eager to satisfy you
And be less than I was
Just to prove I could walk beside you
Now that I've flown away
I see you've chosen to stay behind me
And still you curse the day
I decided to stay true to myself

You say your quest is to bring it higher
Well I never seen change without a fire
But from your mouth I have seen a lot of burning
But underneath I think it's a lot of yearning

Your face the colours change from green to yellow
To the point where you can't even say hello
You tell me you'd kill me if I ever snob you out
Like that's what you'd expect from me
Like that's what I'm about

I remember the days
When I was so eager to satisfy you
And be less than I was
Just to prove I could walk beside you
Now that I've flown away
I see you've chosen to stay behind me
And still you curse the day
I decided to stay true to myself

It's so much easier to stay down
There guaranteeing you're cool
Than to sit up here
Exposing myself trying to break through

Than to burn in the spotlight, openfire
Turn in the spitfire, openfire
Scream without making a sound, openfire
Be up here without looking down, openfire
Because we're all afraid of heights

I remember the days
When I was so eager to satisfy you
And be less than I was
Just to prove I could walk beside you
Now that I've flown away
I see you've chosen to stay behind me
And still you curse the day
I decided to stay true to myself

Myself, myself, myself, myself, myself

Why ya hurt me, hurt me, hurt me?
Hurt me, hurt me, hurt me, so so
Leave me down, down, down, down low
Leave me down, da down down da
Down da down down down

Shit on the radio
Shit on the radio
Shit on the radio
Shit on the radio
