We were laying in the grass sun turning us blind
Flowers bloom as the bees and the birds intertwine
I wish that we could be just like them
When I'm cold if your mind is as dirty as mines you find gold
I see too many souls sitting next to the sign soul
They already wanna purchase my mind
And that's the reason why my momma used to work overtime
Just to pay her way to school that's a version of grind
An ebony in the Ivy League the first of her kind
She always say she see the face of Curtis in mine
That's my daddy though I'm happy that he had me
When he call I only pick it up a third of the time
I know it's wrong pop
But making money off
Music's a long shot
A Hail Mary if you will
That's why you told me do it for the love and fuck the money
Never shed a single tear for stale dairy when it spill
When it's real
You can feel it in your chest
Used to mimic Andre least I was stealing from the best
Now it's only me and you fuck a pill and to the rest
Get arrested fuck a pills I be the villain til the death
I guess that's what it is now
I turn around and got some friends who's raising kids now
I want a JR of my own see the way I'm in my zone
When he finally come of age he gon take over a throne
Getting thrown cause I'm old enough
I think we're growing up
Our parents say we're not home enough
So many years staring at those powder blue walls and green carpet
Now it's new colors since she put in on the market
But before the big bang it was darkness
Before we quit games it was August
Recited our goodbyes to each other
Only keep in touch when lying with each other
I can't handle all this change
I just hope Malia still believe in Santa Clause the same
I slipped a new iPod under the tree
So she can hear all of the songs I know her momma scared to play
My prom date just got engaged happy for you Marissa
That night in June I was probably just to nervous to kiss you
But now your boy got a girl
Can't believe it took me this long to realize we're no one without someone to miss us
And if one day that ship sails I got a pole for the fishes
I tackle box all day tryna cope with the distance
The kids addicts they overdosing on image
And as for your favorite rapper well he gotta pose for the pictures
Guess that's how it is now
That's the sound of music and they all fish now
They fill the world up with screens to keep our eyes off the page
We all live inside an arcade
