I’m on Eastern Parkway, flyin’ on a carpet Through the yellow lights, I’m gliding on the way to her apartment And I’m ridin’, takin’ in the smell of the street It’s night time by the way, but you can tell by the beat That ba** knockin' in my whip, just like some elephant feet Catch a wave when I’m driving past my elementary Grew up round the kids that made a belt with a string And made me feel like I belonged ‘cause they could tell I was me Since then, whew feelin’ like I might've lost track I been thinking too much but I can't help it I think That sh** that's s’posed to make me happy only melts in the heat If I could freeze it, maybe I could turn myself into steam Bendin’ corners through Cherokee Park Way I’m driving you would think I was scared of the dark Another ticket and my momma gon’ tear me apart Well… sh** Young and poppin’, I been soakin’ up my adolescence I took some time to find the balance, now we back in session Ain’t go to college, I decided that's a bad investment
But I’m still takin notes and siftin’ through my past and present I been having trouble socializing Go out to these parties to make people like me, nah I really don't feel like it Can't relate to no one, I should stay home they'll miss me I told this sh** to Copelan on the way home from Cincy He agreed with me, felt the same Damn, that sh**s relieving Maybe time to rea**ess my standards for an evening sh** ain't perfect, we just searching for a plan or just a reason to Fall in love with life and be a fan of f**in’ breathing I ain't suicidal, but lately nothin’ seems to interest me And I ain't got the time if it don't gratify me instantly Thought that I’d be smooth if I ain't smoke or drink Still I got some vices that be stopping me from focusing Like wa**up with my dopamine, searching for a doper me I don't want that Adderall, b**h, I ain't got no broken wings Grew up with the poetry, at 12 I wrote a hot verse Relying on a pill to do it only means I got worse
