Basic

(album: The Cure II - 2018)

Finally got away, had to find a way
Driving sixty miles down the highway
Headed from the east 'cause it's getting late
Travel to the west 'cause it's where I stay

Learning how to grind by my fucking self
Learning ain't nobody really wanna help
Everybody's hating, wanna see me win
But every time they lie, they give me tougher skin

All the ones that wanna see me fall
All the ones that thought that I could call
You don't wanna see me win it all
I see you for who you really are

You tried to hurt me 'cause you
You didn't know what to do
Tried to keep me under you
I had to let go of you

Yeah, yeah, yeah
And when I finally get a plaque
How you gonna handle that?
After talking all this smack
I mights till send you a stack

How you gonna handle that, babe?
Gonna handle that, babe
You could never say baby
But you ain't never knew
'Cause I've been telling you

Oh every time I turn my back
A knife is going through
Words won't ever do
Oh, actions tell the truth
No Sally has a kiss to lay for you

You tried to hurt me 'cause you
You didn't know what to do
Tried to keep me under you
I had to let go of you

Tell me where you're at
You you won't ever see her
Do what you mean, oh
We only know we'll be
I just wanna live free
Just let me be happy

I got time, don't waste it
Got that Goose, let's taste it
Bring that juice and I'll chase it
Problems, they're so basic

I got time, don't waste it
Got that Goose, let's taste it
Bring that juice and I'll chase it
Problems, they're so basic

I got time, don't waste it
Got that Goose, let's taste it
Bring that juice and I'll chase it
Problems, they're so basic

I got time, don't waste it
Got that Goose, let's taste it
Bring that juice and I'll chase it
Problems, they're so basic
