about

1st Timothy 4:12 “Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.”
Gremlyn & Dash Reimer started working on this collaboration while on tour together with the Motivational Hip-Hop crew “Legacy One” in South Africa.

lyrics

[Intro: Dash Reimer]
I have spent too many nights chasing missed calls from missed opportunities
I'm a dead ringer with the dialtone, everytime my phone rings with dead air like a milestone

They keep leaving messages- Just leave me on my own
They keep calling back- but I don't like the tone
Cuz None of y’all are fit- to throw the first stone
None of y'all are perfect- And I'm gone

[Verse 1: Dash Reimer]
You keep telling me- to tell myself apart
Tear myself apart- apartheid of self
It's the tide of currents of currency- Currently
Cursory cares keep cursin' me irreversibly

You keep telling me- to tell myself apart
Like Mirror image- Like Mirage Vintage
Like Rose tinted- Like No sprintin'
Just limping' from the flaws in yo' thinkin'

I'm sinkin' like Mayday- No matter what you say
Mutiny like new way-Stumbling like I too stray
Over Crags and thorns- Horns worn by those I trust- should
Warn- conform or combust-torn to angel dust

Tell me a story- Tell me bout your IQ- Tell me
How you think you know me better than I do
Cuz sometimes your scorn sounds more like jealousy
But you can't have my ID- so you keep telling me

[Chorus: Gremlyn & Dash Reimer]
Cause you keep tellin' me
Cause you keep tellin' me (No)
You, You, You, You, You, You, You
You keep tellin' me
You, You, You, You, You, You, You
Cause you keep tellin' me
You, You, You, You, You, You, You
You keep tellin' me
You, You, You, You, You, You, You
Cause you keep tellin' me

[Bridge: Dash Reimer]
Tell me I'm worthless- ugh, bring it back (No)
Tell me I'm useless- ugh bring it back (No)
I've already heard this- ugh bring it back (No)
Cuz it's not the truth it's- the opposite in fact (No)

Tell me I'm worthless- ugh, bring it back (No)
Tell me I'm useless- ugh bring it back (No)
I've already heard this- ugh bring it back (No)
Cuz it's not the truth it's- the opposite in fact
(Cause you keep tellin', tellin')

[Verse 2: Dash Reimer]
You taught my heart contortions
Contusions when you forced in your ideas so foreign
But I got a thick skull like a Ramsee call me Gordon
You're a bunch of hot air like the four winds (soarin')

So bring it back, like a reverse robbery
I'll act brave as if it really doesn't bother me
But it does, but you do- It's hard to feel
Loved when you’re hated by the one you look up to
-----------------------------------------------------------
[Alt. Chorus: Chantel Denie]
Let me be- your symphony
Or Leave me be- No sympathy
Let me be- your sympathy
Or Leave me be- No Symphony

Let me be- Your symphony
Or leave me be- No sympathy
I just want you to think of me
And remember what you've done, sincerely
