Bas - Icarus lyrics

[Bas:] Since I've let go of you and I Lately I've been feeling too alive Flying too close to the sun, yeah Flying too close to the sun, yeah [Ari Lennox:] Oh yeah Trees that grew between us Tears that drip between us Years have blew between us just throw away Minus the glory But I love our story Yeah I lock the door just to [?] [Bas:] They say love don't cost a thing Yeah right that's a underbid They say love don't cost a thing Oh yeah right that's a underbid That's a underbid That's a underbid They say love don't cost a thing And you know they be lying like Kellyanne Conway I just get my thoughts off, I just take the top off When the culture bubble, we come from the back block, so they call us trouble, we can never slouch nor stop off Weekend on the couch with the socks off Nah, we can make it count, run the clock off We can count lives on the block lost, caution every tape, that we can never block off All I see is hate, how many memories can a million make? Opinionated, young n***a seen the whole world with my own two What they gon' do with this young n***a? Whole squad working on the same page like we one n***a Like we one I can't get jiggy with you clowns I'm busy I've been giving New York City a whole new sound Who really gon' hold this down? Who? Me, funny I catch n***as gettin' sour when I do me I still wish them n***as more than they do me Gotta live up to the blessings in my [?] Bring myself, couple steps closer to my God above Never read the "Art of War" but it's hard to love

Never know when you go rollercoaster All your highs got a low, rollercoaster Bring myself, couple steps closer to my God above Never read the "Art of War" but I could write the Art of Love [Ari Lennox:] Oh yeah Trees that grew between us Tears that drip between us Years have blew between us just throw away Minus the glory But I love our story Yeah I lock the door just to [?] [Bas:] The inner me is telling me "I gotta pace it" The winner in me is telling "I got a bottle of Ace" Cole gave me at the [?] from the [?], send 'em looked 'em in the face Told 'em I can't pop it til [?] Said that I don't mind [?], bold claim Told my momma I'd be back and I make it, both came true Thought I was escaping, just to find myself right back in the Matrix, both pills blue I thought I'd be fulfilled I came from not a dollar in my momma basement I came from bagging product in my momma basement Almost lost some shells tryna bust a couple sells They went and caught a [?] in my momma basement I've been tryna keep her proud since, n***a way back Got some n***as, keep me grounded, that's some way back But I gotta take flights sometimes These are fighting times, I'm my only opponent Somedays I'm betraying my holiest moments I don't know who could control 'em I don't know who could control 'em I ain't living for me, I'm the youngest of five And if I don't survive, I don't know who could console 'em I don't know who could console 'em Since I've let go of you and I Lately I've been feeling too alive
