[Verse 1]
Creepin' through the streets, going deeper than I've ever been
Deeper than the silk poems, deeper than the sediment
Of silk black rivers, haters sneak into your regiment
Never beaten on, I beat MC's who speak irrelevant
Peerin' up to Heaven when the devil sent me messages
Sleeping pills in my palms, standing on the precipice
Rest of it, hack it open, swallow down five of 'em
I'm like a blind man standing in the lion's den
Brain misty, I'm swiggin' down whiskey
It wasn't meant to happen this way, Allah forgive me
Narcotic, dog gone as Ambiens
Don't flounder in and clamor in, the uncrowned champion
I hear young babies who are bawlin' in the dark
Who are calling to their daddies who are brawlin' in the park
Right now it's silent, I could hear a pin fall
Thoughts pinball, I could feel the windfall
[Chorus]
Hello hello
Hello hello
Hello hello
Hello hello
Where you going? What you want? Are you free?
What's your name? Who are you? Who am I? Who are we?
[Verse 2]
All around me it's cloudy, starting to feel drowsy
I'm hearing voices tangoin' and waltzin' all around me
'OBM, you're a faker, you're a poser
You're a middle class boy, never solider, never know you
Never have a place in hip-hop, you'll never have the right, boy
You'll never even know if you're Asian or white, boy
You moved to London for your music and failed
Your Massive EP didn't even have any sales
No talent, no label will ever bank on you
And all your friends and family abandoned you
You're too weak, not unique, when you speak, no one cares
No one's there, no one listens, give it up, freak'
I swung out at 'em, ready to fight
But then I saw I was alone and drenched in moonlight
On a park bench in Queanbeyan, everything was still
I still couldn't sleep so I popped another pill
[Chorus]
Hello hello
Hello hello
Hello hello
Hello hello
Where you going? What you want? Are you free?
What's your name? Who are you? Who am I? Who are we?
[Verse 3]
I start to stagger, each palm, two pills in 'em
Spillin' 'em, resilience lost, really feelin' it
Bottle, keep swiggin' it, the devil keeps jibbering
Fervor, mur-murmuring, the stars shining brilliant
Lost equilibrium, millions of dreamers, schemers
Hyenas, vipers, and chameleons
Vapors valerian, voices, I'm keep hearing 'em
Brink of delirium, I drift to oblivion
[Outro]
