Bent double with my self to prove This back pack a f**in worries while I jump the tube This laptop get snatched out this black bag (I'm) back to zero tunes At night, not so many heroes move I'm lurking, creepin round corners Cotton mouthed And I'm stressin my mothers call to the coroner Tappin' out And I'm testing the waters Which of these streets (will) I get away with walking With slim jeans past 8 on a bad day I've got the keys 'tween these digits Hoping I don't use um that's why I'm praying every second I don't fidget That's just another sign a weakness in disguise My pace quickens down these back lanes While the black thickens in the skies Dodging cracks and divets for the back pain Do my best to keep my mothers eyes dry I've got enough set backs in my mind alone Without stresin bout a knack who's tryna whip this phone Most of these verses are born in the lobes of the dome Before they ever meet the pen and pad to find home
So I won't stress about that note book You fleece the paper but the memories been sewed up My hippocampus f**in stamped with all this gold dutch And hours worth of lyrics and beats like these donuts From big L to Ls straight back to J Dilla I scroll though this cla**ic hope and pray k**a Don't appear on this night walk home and slay the chilla My headphones dictate my pace so I race Dilla And chase thoughts of a rendezvous With that same girl who promised she doesn't usually do What she came for I'm not the one whos going to judge her or pay for it Lets not pretend we're fallin in love, we just fell, fell for it So now we have to feel guilty over f** all right Have to pretend we've been fallin in love all night Or i have to will my friends that you put up a fight Whatever gonna keep us both up all night right? Lets not pretend we're fallin' in love and then fall for it I can't afford another fall but im all for it (Repeat)
