[Verse 1: Ecid]
Im a confident optimist
Until I gotta decide whats for lunch
Then I go back to instincts of marketing hostages
And wait for commercial break to tell what I want
Could of moved to Brooklyn could of moved to LA
But Minneap is home where I midi map my poems
To clouds and romanticize the rain
One mans melanoma another’s coffee stain Im probably sane
But get more neurotic each trip around the sun
Who reads the terms and conditions when their born
News leads reduce me to wake up kinda drunk
Who needs the stress of time travel when their bored
If I ever made a movie
I’d assassinate the main character during the open credits
Im hoping I can get it together for my date at the white house
But I’ll flake like I never got your message
[Hook: x2]
Im a motivational speaker
With self sabotaging features
I talk myself out of everything
It’s a gateway drug to the petty things
[Bridge: Sims]
Yeah…was gonna carpe the dim
Pay the car payment but I slid into some DM’s…
[Verse 2: Sims]
I promised myself I would not read the comments
The vomit at the bottom of the articles but -dammit
I set out looking for the God particle
But twist for umpteenth clicked on the BuzzFeed list
Of 9 potatoes that look like Channing Tatum
Shit, Fuck Mary Kill which to pick
Salisbury Hill watch city lights flick think which connections I should cut ah fuck it
By day he make feng shui out the kumite country’s fascination with the gun play
Got him feeling some type of way, chased it with a vieux carre
One stray over where the coo coo lay
Was gonna trigger riot but caught a whiff of the molotov figured I should try it
Sip until the bottle gone then I nod off
It’s the avant god with an aha moment
And a notion i could, blah blah blah
