pj morton - claustrophobic - (live) lyrics

[pj speaking:]
so y’all got gumbo right?
(yeah!)
well this is a song right here that kind of started the
whole album off
this is kinda the spirit i was in when i was working on it
i was still living in california at the time, and uh
i was taking some meetings with some labels and what not
you know
and it just seemed like they wanted me to be somebody
who i wasn’t you know
so i left that meeting and i started to write this song right here
and i knew i wanted to do something different i knew i had to
maybe get away from l.a
get my mind back to what made me fall in love with music in the first place you know
(yeah)
so i moved back to new orleans my hometown, and uh
started to get back to myself again
and i decided i was gonna be myself

but when i was back in l.a. they’d say stuff like this
they said

[verse 1]
pj you’re not mainstream enough uh
would you consider us changing some stuff? ooh
like everything about who you are
no offense we’re just trying to make you a star

[chorus]
but i must admit
claustrophobic i, have a hard time trying
to fit into your small mind
and i have a habit of dreaming bigger
than anything i can see right in front of me

[verse 2]
they said
pj you’re not quite street enough
(street enough, street enough)
thug life my n-gga
act a little more tough, ooh
and can you switch your style up a little more
you can be yourself later
for now, or either radio

[chorus]
but i must admit
claustrophobic i, have a hard time trying
to fit into your small mind
and i have a habit of dreaming bigger
than anything i can see right in front of me

[bridge]
can’t see the forest for the trees
the movement for the breeze
on my own feet
can’t see the dream i want for me
think it’s better if we be ourselves

[verse 3]
they clutchin’ to my talents more than catholics do a rosary
steady ask, where that accent traveled?
you from new orleans?
gold soul, why i dabble with negative energy
when all i really fiend is a posi-sensibility
not the hardest rapper, but i’m ’bout it much as master p
don’t play with me, 504 my home
don’t you know that
strolling through the streets
you should probably take a kodak
photosynthesize sprouting right in front yo’ eyes
made a trip to cali and came back a different guy
living through the same eyes, riding uber, still got drive
been the truest never lie but i need a little sp-ce
’cause i’m better doing me
just recite if you relate

[chorus]
claustrophobic i, have a hard time trying
to fit into your small mind
and i have a habit of dreaming bigger
than anything i can see right in front of me
