Alejandro "Sosa" Tello - 1080p (feat. Jean Grae lyrics

[Verse 1: Sammus] I'm kind of scared of the academy I think that my parents are proud of me I just wish I knew how to be comfortable here I never feel like I'm allowed to breathe Rubbing shoulders with these old nerds Rockin' sweater vests in they office hours Eatin' hors d'œuvres while I soul search Tryna make some sense of the ivory tower Feelin sober Am I just a coward? Or a poser? I don't really doubt it Or a soldier? Books in holsters But the setting s**s I can't fight the power Cuz they write books nobody reads For these white folks that they tryna please Recycle all the right quotes tryna cite blokes ain't my cup of tea Eatin' chex mix Feelin' helpless I really miss my f**in' ex, it's Such a mindf** Cuz we never talk Yet we still share a f**in' Netflix And every day I apologize To the poor kid that we never had The emotion of the whole thing Make me so sick It's f**ing sad What you don't get is how focused That I had to be cuz you couldn't provide Mad at me cuz I'm losing my mind Had to leave at a terrible time Prednisone -- I can barely breathe Now the pressure gone but I barely sleep So I ring your phone but you don't respond Had to put myself in some therapy Now my therapist, she take care of me Like Sierra Mist things are clear to see Now I'm seeing the world in 1080p Yeah -- now I'm seeing my world in 1080p [Voicemail from mom] [Verse 2: Sammus] Been a few months since the last verse Since I called you bad words I went ahead and got my masters I trimmed the last of my relaxer So my fro big Got some more gigs My cell phone says I'm roaming Cuz I'm on tour I want more Forget home so I go big I was taking pills up in the bathroom Ended up alone in grad school I'm Mario I busted a** but My prize is sitting in another castle In a tight spot trying to disappear I would write songs for my friends to hear I'm tryna keep my lights on I'm a Nikon, now it's crystal clear Opportunity is at my doorstep So I'm moving back up on the horse like It's the first time I ever wore specks Now I do my thing like life's a Rorschach I see things nobody sees Since my bee stings turned to double ds I'm conceding That my feelings Is amazing Now I'm lovin' me! I could give it up but where's the fun in that? Gotta live it up or you will never laugh Life's a box of chocolates with a lot of options Gotta keep it rocking life's a rumble pack The first letter of your first name Makes your name emerge when I search things And it hurts me but I guarantee That without you I'm a better me Now I see the past with some clarity Yeah -- glad I took my a** to some therapy Now I'm seeing the world in 1080p (phone rings) Hol' hol' up is this really Jean? [Verse 3: Jean Grae] Playing for living in the same space Where lovers in bliss are the game changers And when you consider the future him and you are never gon say you became strangers ‘Cause stranger things have not occurred and those would be the words that make you draw the drapes closed Metaphorically and the window ones Cause you had been the ones, binary codes Now with age, you understand what loss is The kind of loss that could fill you with monsters Like mother's day when everybody's mom is at dinner on instagram and here you momless You ain't a mom yet so every other goal don't even matter cause you ain't accomplished And that's the concept your whole accomplice for life doesn't want, now you live in conflict Finally finding your soulmate, having to choose cause it won't wait "It" being time and age how bodies work It's either now or never whole body hurts Whole spirits dashed, whole souls gone You could cling on to hope and just hold on Wishing you knew how to build a flux capacitor you could switch the dates cause all along I've been driven by love and work, my therapy the crux of words And now that might just be just all I'm worth (Sammus) Well I'm so happy that you're on this earth Your words have helped mad kids to own they turf You're the hero Gotham needs and you deserve Good life on the beach with a shady tree For helping us see in 1080p
