[Verse 1: Oddisee] Slow pace in the fast lane with no brakes I'm on a mission to Mars, just tryna be Light years ahead by far and so great At what I do, you can't fake on my style This is truth, I'm up nights to nothin' nice Forget the noose, live a little this one time No second chance, there is no riddle Just punchlines to circumstance, wish I was jokin' though This is what I'm goin' for, to do it like I'm so-and-so Cause when you think you special, they come get you off your totem pole I just keep it low and pro and do more in the moment though Than most would know and which won't be disclosed until I overdose Throwin' it [?] without the roses though Cause I don't need no help I'm wakin' on my own and no I don't have a limit, I'm just livin' like the road is closed Drivin' at a pace that Cadillacs contain the older folks [Hook: Oddisee] I'm just tryna keep together whatever can be severed While movin' through the motion of forever, I tell ya That nothing has a never, nothing has a never
Nothing has a never, nothing has a never [Verse 2: Oddisee] Well if I could do nothin' for somethin' that would be great But doin' somethin' for nothin' is more likely the case Today be called a freelancer instead for lack of pay Listen, I don't give a f** what you say Cut the tap, we highly competitive in this state Cut the neck as we talk, to get a hand in this space Void k**in' and noise k**in' the solitude I'm unfamiliar with silence, ain't on my longitude Ain't one for browsin' expandin' cause man I'm on the move I'm on a mission to Mars and my Mars is on the move Recordin' what I'm goin' through like I'm fillin' they mornin' view Heart of an artist from many sides and the process ask if I feel it the hardest Cause I am always the target, makin' myself as such It sound as clutch as I'm graspin' and sendin' me as a duff Troubles ain't in the bluff and this album ain't really tough I just hope my pa**ions make me go nuts [Hook]
