Under The Influence

(album: Playing In The Shadows - 2011)

And I love being under the influence,
Under the influence of you,
And your voice sounds like it's an instrument,
Everything you say rings true,
Playtime's over, playtime's over,
And I love being under the influence,
But there's better things you'll have me do.
Playtime's over, playtime's over,
And I love being under the influence,
Under the influence of you, you, you...

Y'all,
Listen I'm sticking a tape on,
With a flick of the wrist,
Taking a piss,
I'ma be spreading like napalm,
Felt locked up like Akon,
Starting to show off, buzzing myself,
Batman with no cape on,
Now I'm planting my seed like an acorn
You're gone and I'm trying to stay strong,
Brand new face on,
Throw shapes, wave form
Hold tight, coast line
Ghost face, Raekwon
Don't wanna be down like I'm Jay Sean
You're cold and I'm wanting to stay warm
Don't watch that like gay porn,
You're gone and I'm trying to stay strong

And I love being under the influence,
Under the influence of you,
And your voice sounds like it's an instrument,
Everything you say rings true,
Playtime's over, playtime's over,
And I love being under the influence,
But there's better things you'll have me do.
Playtime's over, playtime's over,
And I love being under the influence,
Under the influence of you

You're fake and I see through the spray tan
Hustle a beer, pulling a trick
Dark when you're wearing your RayBans
Fake tans, your main man
Remember the first like I'm Rainman
Swimming to shore of the mainland
Keep trying to stick to the same plan
This shit is addictive, I'm the victim, you're the victim
Stick clear, take the biscuit, yeah
Ask myself why'd I risk it,
Flushed it out still I missed it
Ain't trying to keep it cryptic
This wasn't scripted
Davina called me up and told me I'm evicted

Don't let playtime ruin our day [x3]
Don't let playtime have its say.
Don't let playtime ruin our day [x2]

And I love being under the influence
Under the influence of you
And your voice sounds like it's an instrument
Everything you say rings true
Playtime's over, playtime's over
And I love being under the influence
But there's better things you'll have me do.
