Buddy

"B.U.D.D.Y." (pronounced "Buddy") is the first single from Musiq Soulchild's fourth album Luvanmusiq. It was released on January 30, 2007 after being given to radio stations in the US in late November 2006. It contains samples from De La Soul's "Buddy (Native Tongues Decision Remix)", Taana Gardner's "Heartbeat" and interpolations from the composition "Heartbeat (Kenton Mix)". The song was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance at the 50th Grammy Awards but lost to "Future Baby Mama" by Prince. The lyrics are a man's attempts to persuade a girl he can be her "buddy". more »

When I close my eyes, then I free myself
No matter where I'm at, I just be myself
I can't see myself, I can't see myself
I can't see myself, I can't see myself
Yeah, shit
First I break it down, then I roll it up, yeah
Then I light it up, now I'm smokin' again
Take a little puff, then I breathe it all, in (shit)
Pray father forgive, every day I'm sinnin
Take it to the end, this just the beginnin'
Yeah
Some shit I haven't seen, yeah
Shit, I can't see myself, yeah
Name gettin' bigger, yeah
Shit
Get some for my city, yeah
Holla if ya hear me, yeah
Sing

Yo
If it wasn't for my reflection, I would be forever guessin'
Swear I got a billion questions
The essence of adolescence is purity
The homie told me, "sacrifices come wit' maturity"
And it's clear to me now
Rest in peace to those not here wit' me now
If my granny saw this day, would shed a tear for me now
If my uncle saw this day, would come and give me a pound
Like "damn nephew, you really did that shit, wow"
Take a look around, I'm comin' from a town that most people don't make it out
Shit that I think about, the people I hang around
The things that I've seen that influenced me since a little child
It's trippin' me out
I mean, who can I be? Other than me (nobody)
Shit, what would I do if I was you? (No clue)
Man, where'd I come from? Where do I go?
Mirror, mirror on the wall, let a nigga know 'cause

I can't see myself, I can't see myself
When I close my eyes, then I free myself
No matter where I'm at, I just be myself yeah, yeah
(Come find me) I can't see myself, I can't see myself
When I'm all alone, yeah (I just wanna feel loved)
I don't need no help, I believe myself (yeah)
Smokin' and drinkin' all by myself
Hopin' and wishin' I find myself (come find me)
Lord willin' we won't die tonight, we gon' fly tonight

Yeah
Okay I'm sittin' here, tryin' think of the exact words for me to explain to you
That it is what it is and that's what it's gon' be
Ain't no changin' me (nope)
Ain't no maybes and no probablys, I gotta be (myself)
That's what it has to be, I'm happily, gladly, gradually
Changin' reality for my family
They proud of me
Could've, never imagined or fathomed things that had happend
The good, the bad, and the tragic
The happy moments, the sad ones, the classics
My first time in Miami
Pharrell had me out on Collins Ave
The studio rappin'
The last nigga signed to Star Trak, might get that shit tatted
And then we shriveled up the contract, and still keep in contact
We beyond all that bullshit and that nonsense
And besides that
I ain't gettin' that time back
Niggas know where my heart's at
I just gotta move on, shit
Gotta get my own, shit
So I pray with all my might
I walk by faith, and not by sight because

I can't see myself, I can't see myself, yeah
I can't see myself, I can't see myself
When I close my eyes, then I free myself, yeah
