Earl Sweatshirt - Quest/Power lyrics

(Verse 1) Tunnel vision on a guap stack Malt liquor, perspiratin’ through the brown sack Big talk looking thinner when it’s combat Swear that sh** is astounding I ain’t stupid with cash either, I grew up around it They over heard he shoot nice so they knew to surround him Eating sh** like he’s Shoenice like the booth had a bounty I’ma k** it, it’s Early like a school night I’m the realest that you know, my brew’s soul In the middle of group home in the locks Through the times I spent off in group homes in a box I been grown boy Cool coals you spitting just ain’t hot, it’s fire and brimstone You guys should’ve went home If you could’ve took the title raising bars, it was supposed to be gooder His shirt drenched, they wet his rosary wood up And who you ‘posed to be, sugar Don’t get close to me My heart cold like the f**ing carrots in a grocery store And in the morning no Folgers, just ‘dro I told my momma that I’m on my way home I know my grandma’s watching over my soul And some other sh**… (Verse 2) Spent nights off the diners at my desk Did time in the tower off of spliffs I’m not like the cowards on the fence I’m not like I’m lounging on the bench Get up out and get your sh** Find some power in yourself or in this sh** Listen, my n***as spit All day give ‘em what live n***as require My state give up the prize cause I’ma find it Anyway boy we riding Trying to sneak the cake up out the motherf**ing bakery quiet Dodge and evade all the fire Watch what you saying to Sire Stay out my face and my wallet Move state to state for the profit Said it on Sunday, you peeped it, a tiny list of my peoples I see ‘em all as my equal So the difference between us is a just a pimp and a preacher I’m running quick from my demons I crush the spliff with my sneaker You know the difference between us These n***as’ fraud as you could see it, all of them out of their feelings I know my heart so I speak it I love the squad so I lead it Eyes wide open, I’m sleepy I’m on the highway, I’m weaving in and out of my lanes I call mom say that I was all the power I needed She say she “Glad I’m called” she just can’t believe it I’m gone
