Slow Motion

[Verse 1]
I can hear the ringing through the morning but I'm too delirious to wake up
In the shower thinkin' how to get some money, guess I got relationships to shake up
Look across the street, I see a crossover in traffic helicopters and low wage jobs
Desperate for a hit of nicotine, I hate the feeling when I take a day off
ET on my sneakers, Carti on my speakers, I'm living here for the night
Cooking up a heater, trynna be a hero and I got my shoes untied

[Chorus]
(One, two, three, four)
Been running in slow motion
And I wonder If we'll make it
It's been so long
That sometimes I lose my hope but
Hope it's all not for nothing
Hope I gave it all for something

[Verse 2]
I can see the city falling underneath the shadows near the metro bus that stays parked
Blinded by the flashing lights, the red and blue ain't nothing nice, so when you see 'em, stay far
I'm nowhere close to peaking, not the one for speaking, turnin up from time to time
I just had to reach in, started to believe that I could get myself untied

[Chorus]
(One, two, three, four)
Been running in slow motion
And I wonder If we'll make it
It's been so long
That sometimes I lose my hope but
Hope it's all not for nothing
Hope I gave it all for something

[Outro]
Day after day
Day after day
Day after day
Day after day
Day after day
Day after day
Day after day
Day after day
