[Chorus]
Say a prayer young God, you're an exile
Walking in the grocery store in the eggs aisle
Check it off your checklist, you need real breakfast
At least that's what your dad says
In your finest linens and your textiles
Contemplating texting your ex, while you'll regret this
You're a mess, it's fine
At least that's what your dad says
[Bridge]
And your dad ain't ever lied
And he always tells the truth
So you keep him by your side
And he keep your food and roof
He supports your hopes and dreams
Like a dad is supposed to do
And you wanna do big things
He support those big things too
On your face got that "just got that check" smile
On your neck got that "give me respect" style
I don't blame ya, it's a game you've played
And you know all the rules
You a libra got scales like a reptile
Keep the balance and balance for 10 miles
And maintain the name, you stayed the same
And you know all the rules
[Chorus]
Say a prayer young God, you're in exile
Walking in the grocery store in the eggs aisle
Check it off your checklist, you need breakfast
At least that's what your dad says
In your finest linens and your textiles
Contemplating texting your ex, while you'll regret this
You're a mess, it's fine
At least that's what your dad says
At least that's what your dad says (3x)
[Verse]
Misguided by the light you follow and you lit it yourself
And your head and your mind is hollow
You don't need no one else, who you living for?
How bout you play by your own rules
Make some art and download some Protools
And your dad said what happens when he dies and
You still doing what your dad says?
[Bridge]
And your dad ain't ever lied
And he always tell the truth
So you keep him by your side
And he keep your food and roof
He supports your hopes and dreams
Like a dad is supposed to do
And you wanna do big things
He supports those big things too
On your face got that "just got that check" smile
On your neck got that "give me respect" style
I don't blame ya, it's a game you've played
And you know all the rules
You a libra got scales like a reptile
Keep a balance and balance for 10 miles
And maintain the name, you stayed the same
And you know all the rules
And you know all the rules
And you know all the rules

I started writing ‘Eggs Aisle’ while I was still in high school. I wrote it in second person; I’m talking about myself. Talking about my dad. And it isn’t even really about just my dad. It’s my mom, God, The Man. I was feeling very closed-in and felt like I had to start taking charge. It’s about tak...
