(Verse)
Serious conversations at like 5 in the morning, why are we mourning?
Feel like this sh**s a sign or a warning
Yeah, I'm thankful for the moment but our time is approaching
Lately everyday I wake up I been silently
Hoping there ain't a moment in the day that I can't smile through loathing
Okay, I get it, but my mind is eroding
It's a sensitive topic throughout these lines I been broaching that's it, won't wait and sit, man, I'm tired of coping; I'm sick..
But this a vibe that I hit
Dropped a six song project sit and vibe to the sh**
I be bold face lying, can't deny that I quit
But it, never gets old, I still smile when I click, it's lit..
Do what I can and I do what the others won't
You working to solely work or you working to stay afloat?
Curt Cobain in the scope, circle aimed at your throat
You working to stay a name, or you working to stay a GOAT?
Uh huh huh huh, I shoot to k**..
I work alone, two birds with ONE stone
If you can stay in school, consider yourselves lucky
If I remained a fool I'd do it myself, trust me
But I ain't ready to stop, give up, or quit
So many threw in the towel there's no reason for me to slip
You put your feet in to dip, then turn defeatist and dip
Defeated, done and deleted believe me the sh**s a trip
Whoa, and what a year, what a year
It started with a bang; disappear, disappear
My old friends left, and newer ones were declined
I'm sorry if I was rude but the truth is a lack of time
That or lack of desire, it's hard to discern the difference
Fake friends bringing my true colour our like a litmus
I'm in something consistent, women keeping their distance
Lisa the only person to stick around as a witness
Loooord, and I'm thankful
I don't need a ton of money but I'd love it if the bank full
I want a penthouse, talking one with the high gla**
Covered by curtains controlled by iPads
That's just a vision I had, tryna fulfill it too fast
That's how we end up whining and crying like visions have pa**ed..
But, what's ambition without the b**hin'?
Half of us sit wishing, the other half working in the kitchen been cooking like Danny Smiles, but often the grin's missing
Everyone been dissin', people been playing Meek like yarn to a kids kitten while artists get binge listens
Bought some Phillips Hue to lighten the mood
If you ain't do it for yourself, who's enlightening you?
If you headed for the church tryna search for the truth
The funny smell is all the bull between the cracks of the pews
Achoo, I'm allergic to failure
I been scared to succeed
All this paraphernalia
That been clogging our feeds
Like I need an inhaler
I been dying to breathe
Suffocate in the greed
I just need to escape her
And the drama the chaser, it seems..
That this the year of the memes
Kim K, Kanye, this the year of the memes
Man, we lost a lot a greats, that cannot be proceeded
And Angelina left Brad, because Bradley had cheated
The memes, this the year of the memes
Don Trump is a reality, Obama's are leaving
Kermit The Frog's the one whose representing our demons, the memes
This the year of the memes
People shoot, rob, disappear and come as they please
At least we find a little humour as we scroll through our memes, while we out here working daily tryna follow our dreams, the memes..
This the year of the memes..
The year of the memes, it seems
