Track produced by drmabeats and jibaorockin

lyrics

Grab the mic, it slips out my hands
(I got no grip left)
When did I say I'm through with it?
(Oh, don't you test me)
When will you stop throwing your fits?
(Left, right, left right, left)
Play with my angst one more time, I'll
Emerge from the trees
One more time? I didn't quite catch that
(I felt that)
Am I just that bad at hearing
Or you that good at ignoring?
Air is getting toxic in here
Time to wear my gas mask
You want me to drive you home, now
Why the hell'd you ask that?

Speeding through red lights
I'm tryna find the right way
Music from the tape deck
Is starting to fade out
World around me is a blur
I'm seeing it decay
But I'm hyper-focused
On getting you home safe
Right, left, right, all these turns got me dizzy
Losing track of the route in my head
40, 50, 60, slamming gas on the freeway
Keep my head racing so I don't have to talk to you

Aspirations dead
We don't talk about it
Blood leaks out my chest
Where's it coming from?
Fog fills up my head
Empty cockpit
You could guess the rest
Roll the fill drums
Feel as light as lead
Sky is moonlit
I forget the rest
What'd I become?
Wake up in my bed
Feel the migraine
White shirt stained deep red
Smell your fragrance


Back and forth, I'm searching for
The records of the past me
I blocked 'em out but surely
There's a way to reel 'em back in
See you sneaking in, why didn't
you just come and ask me?
Knocking on my door, there's lots of
Reverb bouncing 'round the room
Shivers in my bones, the temp is
40 under 50
That's the hallmark, baby
See my breath, the world is freezing
Fire's nowhere near hot enough
(The smolder's breathing)
Things will be okay in the end
There goes the ceiling

Left, right, left, popcorn falling on my face
Stand up fast, we gotta find a way outta here
Beams are breaking, everything is crumbling
Fixtures from the top floor are falling to the bottom
Grab you tight, but there's no more time to embrace
Gotta get out quick, don't got an escape route
Find an unblocked door, the floor is rumbling
You're out safe, I have no time, seal me in

Aspirations dead
We don't talk about it
Blood leaks out my chest
Where's it coming from?
Fog fills up my head
Empty cockpit
You could guess the rest
Roll the fill drums
Feel as light as lead
Sky is moonlit
I forget the rest
What'd I become?
Wake up in my bed
Feel the migraine
White shirt stained deep red
Smell your fragrance
