Macklemore - St. Ides lyrics

[Verse 1] I think happiness went thataway Sometimes you just have to wait I never believed in God But things got so f**ed up That I had to pray Used to steal my Daddy's Cabernet Never thought that it would turn into a rattlesnake Thinkin', everything will be all right If we could get through the week Maybe see another Saturday Rollin' round, we know where to go Argue with the homies over who's gonna roll Bumpin' Goodie Mob, have some food for the soul Till it's two in the morn' When rain hits the windshield And everything is still Nothing really is a big deal One hand on the steering wheel And we gon' be all right [Verse 2] I had a brown paper bag St. Ides in that motherf**er Around the city we smash 5-0 comin' then you know I'm running Crawl into broken fences, when sh** gets hard You know who your friend is And when I lose perspective Need to go to a place where I lose reception Looking at the satellites pa** by Reflecting on my past life I can barely remember last night Another morning, swearing it's the last time Where would I be? We can't start over, you don't get a new ID I know the devil fancy me But that don't mean the motherf**er get to dance with me [Verse 3] I bought a house, second guessing what I own now (What?) Traffic moving kinda slow now (What?) I watch the population grow wild (What?) A bunch of people I don't know now (What?) My city's changed and my zoned out I thought about New York, maybe SoCal Put up condos people can't afford now Landmarks bulldozed, been tore down Overpopulated but can seem like a ghost town Keep a couple real ones with me when it goes down Lack of diversity, I think about Sloane now Only reason I would ever leave my hometown If I still drink, I would crack a 40 ounce Parents finally left, moved away, and they sold the house It's really hard to ignore it now Wish that we could sort it out Last couple sips, pour it out St. Ides
