For My Sanity

(album: The Burning Tree - 2022)

Soon as I wake I tell myself that I won't smoke anymore
The same day I'm with my niggas rolling up again

Soon as I wake I tell myself that I won't smoke anymore
The next day I'm with my niggas burning spliffs again

Sativa for my sanity
Ash before you pass to me
Looking for the lighter I forgot it's right here next to me
Pour another glass for me
I keep taking shots I feel like Tony on the balcony

Sativa for my sanity
I'm defying gravity
Looking for the lighter I forgot it's right here next to me
Taking shots straight to the head, I'm feeling like I'm JF Kennedy

The backwood flavour is honey bourbon and it's burning slow
The mic is on, the lights are low
Yeah, Jody cue the metronome
Soon as I hear the kicks I'm speaking from the soul
The night is young and the tequila's gold
The world is yours, they say to each his own
These kids are taught in class but still applying what I teach in songs
That shit don't happen overnight
It's just like building Rome
Stuff a cone, I'm turning off the phone
Then hit the road, I'm tryna bring it home
Special memories I'm keeping close
Will they remember me? I guess we'll never know
It's like a cycle, I just keep it going
Negative energy, I just ignore it
You just gon' find exactly what you're looking for
Cause it was never worth it
They said I speak with a disruptive tone
If I do, then maybe you deserve it
Don't disturb me when I'm smoking bro
Sometimes it ain't recreational when I'm smoking bro
I'm still the type to smoke it to the roach
Still at the top, they say I'm falling tho
I tell 'em as above so below
This ain't my first rodeo
We all know how the story goes

Soon as I wake I tell myself that I won't smoke anymore
The same day I'm with my niggas rolling up again

Soon as I wake I tell myself that I won't smoke anymore
The next day I'm with my niggas burning spliffs again

Sativa for my sanity
Ash before you pass to me
Looking for the lighter I forgot it's right here next to me
Pour another glass for me
I keep taking shots I feel like Tony on the balcony

Sativa for my sanity
I'm defying gravity
Looking for the lighter I forgot it's right here next to me
Taking shots straight to the head, I'm feeling like I'm JF Kennedy

Yeah...
This just for my sanity
How I protect my energy
This is just my remedy

This just for my sanity
How I protect my energy
This is just my remedy

This just for my sanity
How I protect my energy
This is just my remedy

This just for my sanity
How I protect my energy
This is just my remedy

This just for my sanity
How I protect my energy
This is just my remedy
