Yaw

Yaw

I'll take a sip and waste your time
Let it loosen up your spine
Fuck the codeine and that coke
Only water clear your mind
But turn that water into wine
Drugs and alch make us divine
Memories get left behind
Let, let's get faded we'll be fine

Spill my drink, in my mind, let it dribble down
Goose bumps on my neck, oh we chilling out
Said I'm real cause I'm spitting from a breathing mouth
Heart on the page, bitch I'm bleeding out
I was 15 when we first started rolling
Hitting up the club, fake ID and some potent
Probably 10 deep, we were living for the moment
We was getting faded till 4 in the morning
It was past curfew when we were headed home
Shawty tryina' getta' (ah), put a number in my phone
Told me take a hit of this, stoned to the dome
Only 15 minutes later she was reaching for the bone
Told her, "Wait I'm a virgin," she told me it was urgent
Pulling off her clothes, she was so determined
We were on the field, didn't even have a curtain
Back of the dugout, where I first put the work in

God Damn

I've been swimming in the ocean
They say that I'm the realest out
When I dive with my eyes open
Waves just keep rolling, rolling

Lately I've been using my eyes
Lately I've been losing my vision
Lately I've been choosing my path
I was never in it for commission
This is never for the recognition
Love forever part of my religion
I've been stuck under supervision
Even as a kid, I was really only tryna make a difference
Peeking at a class made my classmates laugh
Teachers always hating my ass
They would send me to the principal
I was treated like a criminal, I started being difficult
Reputation crumbled after fresh freshman
They had me getting checked after 5th detention
Got a medical prescription, I could pay attention
They said, "Don't do drugs," but I guess this an exception
Pill after pill, started making an impression
Note after note, started to practice a profession
Mind over matter, started loving my reflection
Success in my eyes, never settle for rejection
I was determined, I knew I had to prove them wrong
I know I couldn't just move on
I felt it when that light came on
I knew I had to right my wrongs
Find a pencil, I could write these songs

I knew I had to right them wrongs
Find a pencil I could write these songs
