[Intro:]
Half asleep
Mmm
How deep is love? It's deep enough
[Verse 1:]
I don't need the drugs
I need the words you gave me, now you're speakin' 'bout
I'm half asleep, not really sleepin' much
Couldn't tell you how I'm even up
Just hopin' things might even up
Let me specify how dead inside
You feel when you don't recognize
The man in the mirror, let me step aside
Won't you tell me who I am? I just let you decide
I don't wanna love again, I don't know what I'm up against
Oh, nevermind
Lookin' for a love I know I'll never find
Will I stop fallin' for your love like every time you come around?
But if I'll never love again, well, fuck it then
[Chorus:]
I guess I'll take another Backwoods to the air, yeah
Wishin' I was pressin' my lips against you instead
Thinkin' 'bout a lot of the bullshit I shouldn't have said
Now I'm tryin' to erase the thoughts
So I'll just take another Backwoods to the air, yeah
Thinkin' 'bout the tears that I know I shouldn't have shed
But it's hard to see the stress when you layin' off in the bed
Takin' Backwoods to the air, oh-oh
[Verse 2:]
I don't need to lie
When I'm leavin', you kept cheatin' but you needed God
Now I'm cursin' every verse, it's such an evil thought
And I retaliate the love for God, well, freedom-wise, ooh
Let me specify how dead inside
You feel when you don't recognize the man in the speaker
When the needle drops, let the people talk
Start speakin' up, I need it, love, I need it, got a main bitch
[Chorus:]
Just another fuckin' Backwoods to the air, yeah
Wishin' I was pressin' my lips against you instead
Thinkin' 'bout a lot of the bullshit I shouldn't have said
Now I'm tryin' to erase the thoughts
So I'll just take another Backwoods to the air, yeah
Thinkin' 'bout the tears that I know I shouldn't have shed
But it's hard to see the stress when you layin' off in the bed
Takin' Backwoods to the air, oh-oh
[Verse 3:]
Shit gets real, bitches gettin' fake
Fuck 'em if they will, they can get replaced
Kids by you food, food by you kids
All I see, all the lies when I ain't ever need 'em
All I need is freedom
When I'm high, I don't hang on every fucked up thing that you said
Could be why I decide fuck this life, I'll just take another Backwood
[Chorus:]
Just another fuckin' Backwoods to the air, yeah
Wishin' I was pressin' my lips against you instead
Thinkin' 'bout a lot of the bullshit I shouldn't have said
Now I'm tryin' to erase the thoughts
So I'll just take another Backwoods to the air, yeah
Thinkin' 'bout the tears that I know I shouldn't have shed
But it's hard to see the stress when you layin' off in the bed
Takin' Backwoods to the air
[Outro:]
Half asleep, mmm
How deep is love? It's deep enough
Is it deep enough?
Backwoods was written by Clever.
Backwoods was produced by Einer Bankz.
When a fan told Clever that “Backwoods” would sound great as an Einer Bankz collab, Clever responded:
It’s funny you said that, [fan], ‘cause that’s who it is, that’s who it is. We do need to do that live.
