I'm New Here

Gil Scott-Heron · I'm New Here [2010]

I did not become someone different

That I did not want to be

But I'm new here

Will you show me around



No matter how far wrong you've gone

You can always turn around

Met a woman in a bar

Told her I was hard to get to know

And near impossible to forget

She said i had an ego on me

The size of Texas



Well I'm new here and I forget

Does that mean big or small



No matter how far wrong you've gone You can always tournaround



And I'm shedding plates like a snake

And it may be crazy but I'm

the closest thing I have

To a voice of reason



Turnaround turnaround turnaround

And you may come full circle

and be new here again
