Cam has been in one of those relationships that left him broken and the hurt kinda is lingering somewhere. So he is accepting the fact that he wants to be free, though in the pursuit of freedom his ego is still reigning.
[Intro]
Let's go
Yeah
One time, one time in it, one time
[Verse 1]
Deleted your number and threw my phone into the street
Live on the 26th floor, I move out in a week
Got your fucking clothes hanging up, writing the beats
Can't get a single thought across without feeling weak
Swear it's like the hardest part to throw the memories away
All these fucking online posts hemorrhaging me
I don't really have the heart to go through this again
My emotions don't exist no more, so I'll just pretend
I don't really understand the generation we in
We just break up and fucking post pictures again
We were never really happy when we posted those pictures
But I can't remember bad times, now it's ridiculous
I only feel the good times ringing and I'm missing you
Thinking 'bout your dirty ass apartment I was kissing you
If I had to do it all again, I don't know if I loved you
Or I just got obsessed with fixing you
Someone get a hold of me, feelings are controlling me
I just need to roll some weed, I know I'm supposed to be
Focused on the road 'fore me, travelling this road for free
Feeling like you're choking me, fuck, it's taking over me
But I really don't believe anyone can roll with me
You and I were preconceived notions and I couldn't see
Hoping I can find relieve, gotta look inside of me
Feel the past guiding me, I just wanna fly and be
[Chorus]
Free, free, free, free, free
I just wanna be free from this baggage you left me
Literally you left a giant suitcase at my crib
Can you please come by and pick up that shit?
I wanna be, free, free, free, free, free
I just wanna be free from this damage you left me
Literally I'm tryna live my life without the distract
But you always keep coming back (coming back, coming back)
[Verse 2]
I see you with your new dude, I hope you're happy
Just tell him I made 12 thousand last month from rapping
I really brought the game back, like I'm the captain
Smoke alone in penthouse apartments in Manhattan
And when I'm at the top remember me
I dunno why I feel this way, is it the Hennessy?
I used to never drink or smoke, but now my mind is too corrupt
I'm upgrading with my substances and all I do is drugs
But I'ma find my way and make rhyming pay
I lock myself into a room and make a song a day
So I guess I gotta thank you for the inspo
Didn't expect it to be quite like this though
I feel something taking over me, shaping me like potpourri
Shaking when I go to sleep, crazy y'all don't notice me
Hazey, try to focus B, never get the most of me
Always in another place, demons be approaching me
Somehow I just make it work, twisted and I go berzerk
Tryna focus on my work, but I'm getting too concerned
Every dollar that I earn, spending it on shit to burn
I don't think I'll ever learn, I just can't get over her
[Chorus]
Free, free, free, free, free
I just wanna be free from this baggage you left me
Literally you left a giant suitcase at my crib
Can you please come by and pick up that shit?
I wanna be, free, free, free, free, free
I just wanna be free from this damage you left me
Literally I'm tryna live my life without the distract
But you always keep coming back (coming back, coming back)
