Track nhạc thứ 9 "Same Ol' Mistakes" là phiên bản cover của Rihanna từ ca khúc gốc "New Person, Same Old Mistakes" do Tame Impala thể hiện. Phiên bản này vẫn giữ nguyên beat của bản gốc, thuộc thể loại Psychedelic Rock kết hợp cùng R&B và Synthpop du dương. Cô chia sẻ với MTV trong một cuộc phỏng vấn rằng: "Tôi muốn những bài hát mà tôi có thể biểu diễn trong 15 năm; Tôi muốn một album mà tôi có thể biểu diễn trong 15 năm, chứ không phải bất kỳ bài hát nào đã bị lãng quên."
Bài hát nói về sự trưởng thành cá nhân, ngay cả khi điều đó đồng nghĩa với việc lặp lại những sai lầm trong quá khứ. Phần lời nói lên ý tưởng rằng con người thay đổi theo thời gian, và những lựa chọn họ đưa ra có thể không phải lúc nào cũng phù hợp với bản thân họ trong quá khứ.
I can just hear them now
"How could you let us down?"
But they don't know what I found
Or see it from this way around
Feeling it overtake
All that I used to hate
One by one, every trait
I tried but it's way too late
All the signs I don't read
Two sides of me can't agree
When I breathe in too deep
Going with what I always longed for
Feel like a brand new person
(But you make the same old mistakes)
Well, I don't care I'm in love
(Stop before it's too late)
Feel like a brand new person
(But you make the same old mistakes)
I finally know what it's like
(You don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late)
(I know there's too much at stake)
(Making the same mistakes)
And I still don't know why it's happening
(Stop while it's not too late)
And I still don't know
Finally taking flight
I know you don't think it's right
I know that you think it's fake
Maybe fake's what I like
Point is I have the right
Not thinking in black and white
I'm thinking it's worth the fight
Soon to be out of sight
Knowing it all this time
Going with what I always longed for
Feel like a brand new person
(But you make the same old mistakes)
I don't care I'm in love
(Stop before it's too late)
Feel like a brand new person
(But you make the same old mistakes)
So how do I know that it's right?
(You don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late)
And I know that it's hard to digest
But maybe your story ain't so different from the rest
And I know it seems wrong to accept
But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets
And I know that it's hard to digest
A realization is as good as it gets
And I know it seems wrong to accept
But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets
But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets
Feel like a brand new person
So, how will I know that it's right?
In a new direction
So, how will I know I've gone too far?
(Stop thinking you're the only option, oh)
Feel like a brand new person
(But you make the same old mistakes)
I finally know what it's like
(Stop before it's too late)
(Stop thinking you're the only option, oh)
In a new direction
(But you make the same old mistakes)
So how will I know I've gone too far?
(You don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late)
(Stop thinking you're the only option, oh)
Feel like a brand new person
(But you make the same old mistakes)
And I know it's hard to describe
(Stop thinking you're the only option, oh)
(But you make the same old mistakes)
(You don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late)
I finally know what it's like
(Stop before it's too late)
(Stop thinking you're the only option, oh)
(Stop thinking you're the only option, oh)
