​tether Lyrics by MAVI

shadowbox

2024

[Intro]
(Uh, yeah)
(Uh, uh, uh)
Uh, we both gon' die
Oh

[Verse]
Showin' my lil' brother get his chip without foldin' his hand
On the Ford, I'm coppin' fish and grits with a pole in my pants
Poured and pissy, it was me and Mitchy, a four and a prayer
I make women miss me, niggas hit me, don't know who my friend
Halfway 'cross the river, I'm still stitchin' up holes in my plan
Copin' with addiction, my conditioning culprit again
I'll give back every penny just to chill on the North with the fam'
This shit gettin' older, limits little bit bolder in sand
I hear "goodbye" before your tongue rise
As near as I can hear the sunrise, it's clearest when the funds dry
I nеver could just do it right in one try
And so I jumped thе fence of Heaven to another life
Break and enter, I was takin' pills while Mom was makin' dinner
I think my main guardian angel was my babysitter
I let my shadow lead the way and I got taken with him
Tryna walk toward the light for separation

[Chorus]
It's just me and you
While I forgot to breathe, you grew
If I just try to see and shoot
We both gon' die, I
It's just me and you
While I forgot to breathe, you grew
If I just try to see and shoot
We both gon' die, but I want light
It's just me and you
While I forgot to breathe, you grew
If I just try to see and shoot
We both gon' die, I
It's just me and you
While I forgot to breathe, you grew
If I just try to see and shoot
We both gon' die, but I want light

[Outro]
Yeah
