  • Not a damn thing changed
    All the boys that grew up back-to-back still do the same things
    Now they're rewarding our records
    But we still do the same things
    I'm just spittin' words out my mouth
    I made it, I still don't know how
    Damn it, my stage show can light up the clouds
    Now I'm gonna blow it until I go out
    Bring it
    Not a damn thing changed
    Just the funerals that follow death some more pain
    We're drinking beers and we're lighting up joints in the cold rain
    I'm glad I got somewhere to go
    I know a few souls without hope
    Brother, you know you can call if you're broke
    Damn it, I pray you won't reach for that rope

    So pour out a shot for me
    Keep pouring out the bottle for the real ones I lost
    Who can no longer walk with me
    For the ones still right here, yeah, for the ones who still care
    Yeah, we still feel the same way
    Just pushing in the same lane
    Tryna sit still, keep looking at the main aim
    Always doing me so I have to maintain
    Not a damn thing changed, just sticking to the game plan

    Not a damn thing changed
    Got my team from day one, there's not one I could replace
    Staying true to the way I grew up, how we were raised
    My boys, they go in and go out
    I'm just spittin' words out my mouth
    So far away but I still make them proud
    Damn it, I hope we all make it somehow
    Bring it
    Not a damn thing changed
    I'm just tryna put feelings as words on this damn page
    Some of my friends started leaving this life 'cause they couldn't wait
    They know how it feels without hope
    I'm glad I got somewhere to go
    Stick to my people, that's people I know
    They feel the same, we all follow that code

    Now pour out a shot for me
    Keep pouring out the bottle for the real ones I lost
    Who can no longer walk with me
    For the ones still right here, yeah, for the ones who still care
    Yeah, we still feel the same way
    Just pushing in the same lane
    Tryna sit still, keep looking at the main aim
    Always doing me so I have to maintain
    Not a damn thing changed, just sticking to the game plan

    Not a damn thing changed
    Won't forget where I'm from but for me there's just one way
    It's a habit of beating the goals that we once made
    I got a few records to break
    I know we all got what it takes
    The team is the team, same as back in the day
    The team is the team, same as back in the day
    Not a damn thing changed
    If I wanted to turn back, it's already too late
    Yeah, we just grew up too quick 'cause we
    'Cause we couldn't wait
    Pushing in the same lane
    Tryna sit still, keep looking at the main aim
    Always doing me so I have to maintain
    Not a damn thing changed, just sticking to the game plan Writer/s: David Labrel, Harrison Tobin, Henrik Bryld Wolsing, Lukas Forchhammer, Morten Ristorp, Rasmus Hedegaard, Stefan Forrest
