[Hook]
I’m afraid to fly, and I don’t know why
I’m jealous of the people who are not afraid to die
It’s just that I recall, back when I was small
Someone promised that they’d catch me
And then they let me fall
And now I’m falling
Falling, fast again
[Verse 1]
I never thought it woulda happen, never imagined in a million years
That I'd fall this hard and get kicked while I'm down by all my peers
(fuck all of y’all) pardon me that's the Chardonnay talking
But I hope you get struck by lightning though when you walking home
Blackberry's an obituary
Next to every other name beginning with A and ending with Z
You'll notice it says R.I.P
Never visited a grave, nah, that's not for me, there's no need
Cause they're not deceased, they're just dead to me, call it good grief
Shallow bitches throw them in the lake and see if they sink
The average kid went from being decent to amazing
Text message my ex “Quick look outside your crib”
And stunt on her with my new whip and let everyone know I'm rich
And my watch? Oh, that's an Audemars if you must know
I park the mustard Maserati where your bus goes
Accustomed to disappointment as far as trust goes
I'll never let another person get close

[Verse 2]
Am I scarred or scared? I guess it's all the same
No matter how much you pretend you change it's in your DNA
He got me jumping hoops and running circles for no purpose
Asthma kid, run faster for daddy. Is that it?
This bastard passed his passive aggression
I guess I'll catch it, I got nothing else to grab
Don't wanna end up empty handed
I must admit that it's best that he kept his distance
He's got himself a new Mrs. he’s tryna repaint the picture
22 years later guess who's got an older sister
...Wait a minute, do the math I'm tryna understand
Did I miss something in the past that I shouldn't have?
Did he hide and deprive me from something that I could have had?
They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, nope
Chop it down and burn it up I wanna see smoke
Hopeless dreams, I'm angry at the world
Broken wings, I'm angry at the birds
