Tulips & Roses

Bonsoir
Gerry in Paris
Uh

Sitting on my terrace in Paris
Sun rising up as strangers leave my hotel
Afterparties, thank God for NDAs, everything you saw tonight, don't tell
Understand the urge, but would you please not share this?
Get triggered when I see a camera open, it scares us
Posted on her Close Friends to show off she's near us
Acting off of impulse, she's tipsy and careless
I swear there's a scarcity of self awareness
I was faded when I wrote this, off the microdoses
Mushrooms, chocolates, and bottomless Mimosas
It's been a decade since I knew what being broke is
Being living without remorse, and I barely know what home is
If I fell, who would catch me?
If I was down, who would grab me?
Is that the truth, or are you just trying to gas me?
In the Hollywood Hills, I'm Los Angeles' Gatsby

When you walk away, they'll miss you
But stay away too long, then they forget you
Cause nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever

Clout's a hell of a drug, I'm so off of it
My star's back shining bright, I just polished it
This shit'll get away from you if you ain't on top of it
Take too long stirring the sauce, you get lost in it
There comes a time as a man you gotta stack up
Watched it fall apart, time to pick the pieces back up
Had to get this off, someone book a studio
Driver, pull the Cadillac up
Jesse, load a track up
Something in my spirit woke back up
Like I just sat up
Drop an album, hang another plaque up
Time to go to work, pick the slack up
Please no more comparisons, please stop bringing Jack up
Salute my brother, we can all coexist
Been cooking in the kitchen with the Based God wrist
Took a hiatus, I'm like "What did I miss?"
Gerald's back in his bag, they don't do it like this
Certified legend if I quit at this moment
You should already know this, you're really playing the coldest
So I need all my respect, I need my tulips and roses
I made my record label fortunes and I met all my quotas
Been a while, had to come remind y'all who the G.O.A.T. is

Bitch, you got me fucked up
You know?

It's that time...
When you walk away, they'll miss you
But stay away too long, then they forget you
Cause nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever
