“I can't see anything that I don't like about you
But you will! You will. You know you’ll think of things. And I'll get bored with you and feel trapped because that's what happens with me
Okay
Okay.”
VERSE 1:
I need to open up like aperture got a speck of dust in my camera
I’m a hypocrite for these benefits like a Crip donatin’ plasma
When it comes to me I’m the biggest hater and I ain’t doin’ no favors
I’ll fade mirwin, don’t need a taper if not, I’ll clean up later
This sixteen’s me at 16, all the parts of me I despise
Always had to fit in with everyone so you learned to lean on lies
A chameleon with your fake friends always colorin’ your disguise
To be honest I liked you better way back when you wanted to die
You’re a poser with a mic, I know you think you’re cooler than me
With your tatted calves, an old mac, but I don’t care about these
That’s superficial like another song that sure don’t impress me
You’ll get another job, another job, but you’ll never get the prestige
Tryna make room in the culture, but that home was never yours
At best you’re underground, that’s why you’re stuck beneath the floor
You’re a baby in this bitch and it’s ’bout time I cut the cord
Nah fuck it I’ll abort, I pray to God forgive me Lord I
HOOK:
Got some shit that’s on my chest
And I can’t waste another breath
Used to live my life depressed
Cut the rope and now I’m blessed
I touched the shadow of death
You took a step and then you left
Give me a sample, never stressed
I watch it flip like a cassette
Got some shit that’s on my chest
And I can’t waste another breath
Used to live my life depressed
Cut the rope and now I’m blessed
I touched the shadow of death
You took a step and then you left
Give me a sample, never stressed
I watch it flip like a cassette
VERSE 2:
Pour a fifth out for the past me ‘cause I finally moved to acceptance
I was a boy that colored with crayons now I’m like the man with a method
Feel like Kobe Bryant with the raps, practice everyday I'm obsessive
I used to wanna escape it, now I embrace it, that’s my weapon
You can’t handle these bars Harley, tell the past me I’m not sorry
Thought ‘bout suicide in the darkness, now I got eternal sunshine, Ari
I used to follow those hollow trends, tryna squad up at the party
But I’m here rockin’ my checkered vans and a wife beater, no Carti
Remember scrollin’ my texts, everyone left a whole lotta read
I bounced back now the crowd’s packed for redemption, coulda been dead
I used to focus on strangers, doin’ my worst to hear what they said
I would let it get to my head, these days don’t give a fuck instead
You got more money with less problems, not my talent, not my story
Not my pain, not my glory, all the shit that came with the territory like
Cut off my past self, burned those bridges down in purgatory
I’m breakin’ out of your category, until the day that you can’t ignore me
HOOK:
Got some shit that’s on my chest
And I can’t waste another breath
Used to live my life depressed
Cut the rope and now I’m blessed
I touched the shadow of death
You took a step and then you left
Give me a sample, never stressed
I watch it flip like a cassette
Got some shit that’s on my chest
And I can’t waste another breath
Used to live my life depressed
Cut the rope and now I’m blessed
I touched the shadow of death
You took a step and then you left
Give me a sample, never stressed
I watch it flip like a cassette
“I wish you'd stayed
I wish I'd stayed, too. I wish I'd done a lot of things.“
