LYRICS:
A tornado flew around my room before you came
Excuse the mess it made, it usually doesn't rain
In Southern California, much like Arizona
My eyes don't shed tears, but, boy, they bawl
When I'm thinkin' 'bout you
(You, know, know, know)
I've been thinkin' 'bout you
(You know, know, know)
I've been thinkin' 'bout you
Do you think about me still?
She's workin' at the Pyramid tonight
She's workin' at the Pyramid tonight
Pimpin' in my convo's
Bubbles in my champagne
Let it be some jazz playin'
Top floor motel suite, twistin' my cigars
Floor model TV with the VCR
Got rubies in my damn chain
Whip ain't got no gas tank
But it still got woodgrain
Got your girl working for me
Hit the strip and my bills paid
That keep my bills paid
But it's a bad religion, for her to love someone who will never love her
Fuck me good, fuck me long, fuck me numb
Love me now, when I'm gone, love me none
Love me none, love me none, numb, numb, numb, numb
I'm about to drive to the ocean
I'm about to swim from something
bigger than me
kick off my shoes
and swim good
swim good
take off this suit
and swim good
swim good
good
I'm goin' numb
I've been thinkin' 'bout you
(You, know, know, know)
I've been thinkin' 'bout you
(You know, know, know)
I've been thinkin' 'bout you
Do you think about me still?
Do ya? Do ya?
My fingertips, and my lips, they burn
From the cigarettes
Forrest Gump, you run my mind boy
Running on my mind boy
Forrest Gump
I know you Forrest
I know you wouldn't hurt a beetle
But you're so buff, and so strong
I'm nervous Forrest
PAUSE
I believe that marriage isn't
between a man & woman
but between love and love
and I believe you when you say that
you've lost all faith
but you must believe in something
something something
you gotta believe in something
something something
I still believe in man
a wise one asked me why
cause i just don't believe we're wicked
I know that we sin but I do believe we try
we all try
the girls try
the boys try
women try
men try
you and I
try try we all try

People who can't tell the difference between auto tune and no auto tune shouldn't go any close to judging anyone's music.

[@1295dev]

One of the best singers of all time

[@tjtrix7521]

Devin Moore Yes, totally agree

[@precisionfort2083]

TJ Trix True, but this guy, like 90% of popular music, does use pitch correction. Pitch correction when done professionally is invisible to the average listener unlike the t-pain effect autotune. You probably wouldn't notice the difference with it turned off, it's just become an industry standard.

[@ajnode]

Lol the hilarious thing is this fucker doesn't know there are different kinds of autotune... like autotune doesn't always sound like the shit at the start of this video.

i admire the fact that he doesn't change the parts when frank says "boy". i believe SoMo doesn't feel less man just because he's singing songs that probably were written from a man to another man, he sings because lyrics are strong and the music is great.

SoMo is so underrated

It's obvi that he doesn't use auto tune , any idiot can tell the difference . But I guess those people who think so are used to listening to artists who use auto tune that they can't tell the difference ,just sit down The guy is talented.

srsly I've loved you since Back to start and that's the only song I was obsessed with even thought I knew you had covers It just didn't feel right to listen to you sing other songs than your own because you so awesome at it but you still sound amazing singing the way you sing. Love You SoMo.

[@jabrilm1975]

Who here is from 2020

[@angelriley6075]

Who ever hated this song doesnt have a good taste in music. And also Mr.Somo you are a very good singer, it doesnt matter if you have auto on or if you dont have it on. You are a very fine singer..(but not in that way). And I love you music so much. Mr.Somo you can make any song sound so good. And you made me believe that I can become a singer on day. Even though we dont know each other, I just fell in love with you. And your song 'Ride' is so awesome.

[@kenzieashley13]

I love Somo and Frank Ocean. This is too perfect

[@arbitermatt]

He hasn't just bought autotune software/rack unit for that opening sequence. Anyone not versed in music production, this guy does autotune. You can hear it in so many tracks/covers but it's alot more tasteful than a lot of other singers out there. You can hear it on the weeknd medley when he says "beside me" it snaps to a pitch, it's also really evident on longer notes. Even the best singers would have a slight variation in pitch which gives them that character, but it's just becoming accepted in this genre now which is fair enough I suppose

[@JoeyBurbs]

im not saying he doesn't use auto tune, but all major recording software comes with auto tune capabilities. he wouldn't have to buy something specific for the beginning. I mean GarageBand has an auto tune function, he didn't have to do anything special there

[@arbitermatt]

Yeah fair point, I really don't have a problem with it being used tastefully, but Marvin Gaye, Tina Turner, Luther Vandross, Prince, Billy Ocean and all those other legends of the genre never needed it.

[@bluepartin]

or maybe his voice is just that good?

[@arbitermatt]

Zack Partin no

[@camryndoyle8673]

okay this was months ago but it seems necessary to point out the fact that SoMo has been making videos in HIS BEDROOM with just his voice & a piano he got for christmas & he still sounds just as good as he does now with all his fancy equipment. so please tell me where his autotune was then..?
