[Verse 1]
Blang Horse, he told me
That's the way back homie
I should go and forget the old me
He said that it ain't you
If only music console me
Why am I dreaming of rollies
But I mean Just is the obi
You know we gon' make moves
In my room is a big ass elephant
And there's my skeletons -
And mother fucker I'm selling 'em
It's evident, I wouldn't make it out alive
Without a Macbook, pad or pen
Either way I ended up face down in lines
On my ass again, I'm just blabbering
Nightmares of becoming anakin
Or even worse just like you, a mannequin
If you ain't talking 'bout money it sound like mandarin
Atleast what I think that shit sound like
Get a little traction, now they all wanna sound bite
Drop a few flops, why not? it makes it interesting
Can't talk to my girl but lord knows I vent to them
[Chorus]
I said damn, we came along way
I keep seeing all these things though
All I ever heard it was the wrong way
But the voices in my head telling me, "No"
They tellin' me, they tellin' me
They tellin' me, they tellin' me
They tellin' me, they tellin' me
They tellin' me, they tellin' me
You should see this view
You should see this view from here
You should see this view
You should see this view from here
Now, now, now, now, now
[Verse 2]
My songs seem to write themselves these days
Remember that last time I had nothin' to say? Me neither!
I'm just tryna get my momma straight, riding in a beamer
Never thought I'd see my poppas face
He told me write to me
It's on me, yeah it's all on me
Don't even try to call me
I changed my number, mother fucker
What'd you think this is?
When I'm on the floor you wanna take a piss
Now I'm top billing, wanna ask how I'm feeling?
Well how I'm feelin' is fuck your feelings!
I won't stop this killing till I see a hundred millions
It ain't about the money
It's about breaking that ceiling
You can't take that from me
Labels wanna see me bummy
Fuck you with ya low ball dealings
This that shit you can't put a price on
I'm still worth billions without the right song
I'm 'bout to be these broken kids' icon
Is anybody home, man, I dont see no lights on?!
[Chorus]
I said damn, we came along way
I keep seeing all these things though
All I ever heard it was the wrong way
But the voices in my head telling me, "No"
They tellin' me, they tellin' me
They tellin' me, they tellin' me
They tellin' me, they tellin' me
They tellin' me, they tellin' me
You should see this view
You should see this view from here
You should see this view
You should see this view from here
Now, now, now, now, now
