Gotta learn to listen and deliver you respect
Passing out some pieces of my heart during sex
Find myself anticipating what is coming next
Find myself participating leaning to the left
Constantly delibеrating what I should expect
Collect my bеt with my hands up in ya dress

Is this the life you always wanted
Living with a deadbeat in a house that’s haunted
Selling nudey pics to afford some ramen
Baby baby I know how it must be daunting
Looking at the tele what the fame be flauntin
Kickin in ya belly tryna gain some fortune
