eyes

My mama said I can't take a joke
But what the fuck is there to joke about
I'll wait
Mm-hmm, that's what I thought
Brain fried doing somersaults
Knee deep in the thick of frost
Grown sick of the warm weather
Probably why I stay inside a lot
Sought relief through the SOS
Lines stressed, couldn't send a text
5G got a nigga pressed
Truth is, I didn't press send
Truth is, we all bent
Signals in a mosh pit
Scrambled data, corruption
Calibrated to a calm pitch
My homegirl got college loans
4.0 and no plan
Work the fries until the grave shift
Last year, she made a onlyfans
Said if you in, we gon' get this bread
Shit I though we was only friends
There's other ways we can meet ends
And third, Ima need 30 percent
Nah, I'm kidding, unless
The homie been speaking some cryptic shit on Twitter again
I tried to check in on my nigga, response was bitter, possessed
I'm trying to support him before he do something
He would regret
And rumor is, people keep contact with me in case I arise
And rumor the nigga who colored in class
Is flying colors, got his life on the line
Rumor is one of my exes got kids and I ain't surprised
And it's been a minute since my face donned a real smile, yet I still smile

It's a bad day, not a bad life, I swear
Whatever nigga, we don't care
It's a bad day, not a bad life, I swear
That ain't the type of shit I wanna hear

Mindstate like Truman, I mean shit
I'm only human, I ain't grow up in the hills
Do things by ear and fear
Not like I used to
Jedi like mind tricks
Wish I was foolish, I'm way too rich
Not by papyrus but knowledge of life
Losing my appetite
The sight of the paper's a wheel for a hamster
Shit keep revolving till I'm growing nauseous
Remaining silent, a halo and spike around our shoulders
All we know is we growing
But weeds grow too if conditions are right
I hope that's enough to suffice
Like Malcolm, I'm peaking through blinds
And closing them swift, I love living with my eyes shut
Tight
Tight
Tight
I love living with my eyes shut
Tight
Tight
Tight
Yeah

But eventually, everything must come to
Light
Light
Light
