Standby Lyrics by Mimic

2020

[Verse 1: Mimic]
I'ma go and leave the house again, I got my backbone
Watch the ground shatter, glass when I walk up on
People only call me, when there's something always wrong
I see distant memories creepin' when I pass by
Hope it's the last time, stay connected like it's landline
Watch my footing 'cause I'm surrounded by landmines
Never gonna trip, 'cause I'm always on standby
I got ice up on my wrist, you know this shit took time
Pills in my system, only reason I would fall
Error in my coding, so I always reinstall
They always try to stop me, but I'm breaking through these walls
Still hopin' for that call

[Verse 2: sewerperson]
Every night
Baby, I used to see you 'bout like every night, yeah
Now, I'm like "Yeah"
Are we alright? Damn
I just hold my head and dig my feet into the sand
Man, I miss my homeland
You look like an angel in this candlelight, yeah
The news said that storm out west been heading over here
We sit in front of this fire, waiting for it to appear
While my eyes roll back into me as she's thumbing through my hair
Exhausting all my energy into the summer air
I swear, I had this in me way before I was aware
She used to feel my arm when I'm in public, 'cause I hate when people stare
This aura seeping out of me whenever I'm feeling scared
Black clovers covering my books, I'm tainted
I levelled before I was ready, now it's rage, I shoulda waited
Ripping through my mind, I separate from what I hated
I live in constant fear of my projection in my basement

[Verse 3: Mimic]
Everyday thankful to god that I made it 22
I be mixin' all my pills and with my liquor too
She be fuckin' good, I'm keepin' all the answers inside the coupe
She tell me that she's wasted, I tell her I am too
Markings on her body, she levitate the room
In my mind I tell her that I'll see her soon
I be writing scriptures in these pages
With you know I keep it weighted
Hated
Only show me love when you're jaded
New beginnings but I'm feeling outdated
Comin' home to see nobody waited
Oblivious is stated
