B.o.B - Where Are You (B.o.B vs. Bobby Ray)

[Verse 1: B.o.B as an old friend]
What ever happened to Bobby Ray, he used to be here for us,
Then he got famous and left all of his fans in the dust.
We never hear from you, you're constantly changing,
And your relatives always miss you at family occasions,
And your mother misses you too.
Since all the fortune you've been too busy recording,
Now she feels unimportant and your daddy's been going through it
Since he lost his mother,
The least you could do is call him and show him, you support him.
I never thought you would sell out.
You're becoming so cocky:
I asked you for a picture after your show,
You walked right by me, I'm like,
"Ain't this the dude that said that it ain't about the price tag?"
Now on your records all that you do is brag.
Come on, Bob, I thought you was better than that, dawg!
What happened to "Cloud 9" and "Generation Lost"?
You were my idol, just when I thought I'd give up on everything,
I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)

[Hook:]
I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum,
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum,
(Melody, melody, melody).
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum,
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum.

[Verse 2: B.o.B as a longtime fan]
What ever happened to B.o.B, he once was my favourite,
I swear to God that I had all of his mixtapes on my playlist,
He was hood, but so different at the same time,
It was like a breath of fresh air, everytime he rhymed,
And everybody was on him and the world fell in love.
The girls, the money, the lifestyle, all the above,
I guess he's stopped giving a fuck for all of his little people.
With your shades on, we can't even see you!
Is that what happens, when somebody makes it off of rapping?
They taste the fame and change like it's just automatic,
Where's the integrity? You're on that other shit,
You don't even sound the same, I liked your other shit,
But we'll stand beside you, 'cause somewhere deep inside you
There's more than what meets the eye.
I swear on the Bible, you were my idol,
Just when I thought I give up on everything,
I heard you play this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)

[Hook]

[Verse 3: B.o.B]
I watched my whole life change in a couple of years.
Who woulda ever thought I would have caught the world by the ears?
I swear, this shit is so much bigger than I had figured,
But if it wasn't meant to be this wouldn't be my career.
It's like, people only see it the way it appears,
But they never see the ropes and the pulleys and the gears.
Blood sweat and tears, we cry but always swear there's tears,
In the middle of this rap game on the battle field,
All of these shock jock interviews, tryna phone me.
You never know who's gonna try to play you and make you look phoney.
I live and die for my team, these niggas are more than my homies,
We put it all on the line, we gave up all our belongings for this rap shit,
'Cause at the end of the day, it ain't just rap shit,
I call it making a way for our survival.
Just when I thought I gave up on everything,
I dreamed about this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)

[Hook:]
I dreamed about this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum,
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum,
(Melody, melody, melody).
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum,
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum,
I dreamed about this familiar melody (melody, melody, melody...)
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum,
Da da dum, da da dum, da da dum.
