Who I Thought You Were - Santigold

Hey now take a look at you

Hosed down in a million dollar suit

But I knew you when that wasn’t you

I knew you when you had a clue

Big man, driving a big car

Funny how you can spin so fast so far

I knew you when you was a star

I knew when no one thought you were

You cannot be who I thought you were

Who I thought you were

No, you can’t be who I thought you were

Who I thought you were

I like you more when you’re poorer

Your new ID is a borer

Come back here you actin' like we owe ya

Are you ever gonna be who I thought you were

Last time I tried to call you up

I couldn’t reach you 'cause you were stuck so far up

I knew you when you were just rude

I knew I loved your attitude

Five minutes all that you got left

Long way down boy I wouldn’t hold your breath

I knew you when you knew the time

I knew you for your bottom line

You cannot be who I thought you were

Who I thought you were

No, you can’t be who I thought you were

Who I thought you were

I like you more when you’re poorer

Your new ID is a borer

Come back here you actin' like we owe ya

Are you ever gonna be who I thought you were

Now you got a lot of gall

Tell you frankly I’m appalled

I know you know better

Where you going on that ladder

Got all the girls runnin' they with you

All of your lackeys they’re thirsty and you are too

Your enemies they tell you it’s all fine

I tell you better watch it walkin' a thin line

Ask if I used to know you I don’t know

'Cause these days it’s like it’s just like I never seen your face before

You cannot be who I thought you were

Who I thought you were

No, you can’t be who I thought you were

Who I thought you were

I like you more when you’re poorer

Your new ID is a borer

Come back here you actin' like we owe ya

Are you ever gonna be who I thought you were

I don’t like you

I don’t like you
