Same Girl Lyrics

J. Lo
Philly gettin closer
Stuntin' like I'm supposed to
Stop me ?

Philly gettin closer
Stuntin' like I'm supposed to
Stop me ?

When you make it your're the chosen (you're the chosen)
Sayin time you're in trouble (you in trouble)
Mama told me stay up by that corner (at that corner)
Thank God that we made that out that corner (out that corner)
Goin' crazy ? Suicidal (race boys)
Iris watchin' your money on a fork (on a fork)
Shorty you ?
Haters wanna see in me in a bodybath

My head's killing me
I'm losing sleep
And I'm waking up tired, of it all
Early in the morning
And there's something already
With my name always involved

I'm tryin' to get rid of the baggage
Fake friends I call them has-been
Yeah they mind on stuck
And it's OK if they don't show me luck , no

They want me to lock down
They want me to crawl
They want me to cry now
But I've never fallen off

Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah
Too damn grown, I don't owe nobody
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah

Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah
Too damn grown, I don't owe nobody
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah

'Cause in the end I'm still the Same Girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
I'm just the same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)

Show me what I gotta do
I'm tryna make it clear to you
Not dealing with the attitude
I'm tired
Of tryna make you see that I'm still me
Switched up my longitude and latitude
You're in my way, you better move
'Cause I'm on the same ground
No, I never changed, I loving every day
I know that I'm the same Jenny from around the way

They want me to lock down
They want me to crawl
They want me to cry now
But I've never fallen off

Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me
Too damn grown, I don't owe nobody
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah

Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah
Too damn grown, I don't owe nobody
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah

'Cause in the end I'm still the same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
I'm just the same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)

I'ma keep on growin'
Keep on shinin'
Just wanna do me
I had a thing that 'cause he chose me
I'm still the same girl

When I was there broke, there was nobody (nobody)
Back to the walls, there's nobody
Still the same old nigga
Thirty new cars, thirty chains on nigga
Bein' real (bein' real)
Count money (count money)
Get high (get high) oh la la
Bein' real (been real)
Count money (count money)
Gettin' high (gettin' high) oh la la

Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah
Too damn grown, I don't owe nobody
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah

Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah
Too damn grown, I don't owe nobody (I don't owe nobody)
Get off of me yeah
Get off of me yeah

Same Girl

Jennifer Lopez wrote this paean to her roots with Chris Brown. It finds the Bronx-raised singer telling us that she hasn't changed since her days in Castle Hill - she's still real and remains the same Jenny from the block.

The song was produced by Cory Rooney, who has helmed several of Lopez's hit tunes including her aforementioned "Jenny From The Block" and "Play." He worked on this track in collaboration with Bronx producers Amadeus, YaBoy Chizzy and Ryan M Tedder.

The video was shot in Lopez's old neighborhood in the Bronx on December 28, 2013 and directed by Steven Gomillion and Dennis Leupold. "I had this idea like, oh, when I do the video for ["Same Girl"], if I ever do a video for this, I'm gonna go back to my old neighborhood in the Bronx," she explained on The Tonight Show. "I'm gonna go back to Castle Hill, I'm gonna get on the train from Manhattan, I'm just gonna film the whole thing. So we did!"

"We did it very guerrilla style," Lopez added. "You know it was just me and the camera and it turned out pretty cool."

Lopez invited locals to cameo in the clip. "They all started kind of gathering around and we're like, 'Do you wanna be in the video?'" she recalled. "They're like 'Yeah!' and I was like, 'OK c'mon, sing this!'"

This was one of several songs that Lopez worked on with Chris Brown for her A.K.A. album. Asked by Pop Crush how she thought his style affected the sound of those tracks, Lopez replied: "He knew he was writing for me, but at the same time it was very organic to what he does. But when you hear the songs, I don't think you would think, like, 'Oh, he wrote 'Same Girl.' He wrote 'Emotions.'' There's very different things that he did for me on the album."
