Gray Lyrics by U.Fø

Pretty Faces in Shitty Places

2020

Up at night I toss and turn I don’t know what to say
I meant it when I said I wanna talk, but I’m afraid
I want you here right next to me, but pushing you away
Is how I keep your colours safe from me, I love them but I’m gray



Look I don’t usually write like this
But tonight this shits a battle I can’t fight with fists
And I don’t think I’ve ever really gripped the mic like this
But everything I write tonight is for your life my sis
Yeah I’m just tryna keep it together, I had a crazy November
You almost missed this December
Remember life will get better, just gotta weather this storm
I know it ain’t always warm, so let me give you my sweater, I better ah!, take a little second to breathe
Man I gotta get out my mental, just need a little relief
And I know that girls just a rental, and still I somehow receive
But in a few months I leave, fuck I’d never give her my seed. That’s greed
I’m off topic, I got little regrets
I don’t mean none of them, I mean I feel I’m riddled with stress, rekindle an ex, told her I want little but sex
I’m brittle and vexed, living off reality checks
Now I gotta make it for idols at the top
Me and my homies at the bottom, we stay grinding every drop
And people hop onto the wagon cause they know it never stops
And I’m the horse that it’s attached to so I’ll spit shit till I pop
Bad kidz, without a penny to our names
We filling every single page we jotting down about a stage
When people pay us for a photo, and they show up just to rage
So I invested every cent I made off of minimum wage


Up at night I toss and turn I don’t know what to say
I meant it when I said I wanna talk, but I’m afraid
I want you here right next to me, but pushing you away
Is how I keep your colours safe from me, I love them but I’m gray


And now the girl on mind, is a thousand miles away
Instead of calling I’m ballin, man I’m just tryna get laid
I know I’m blessed and I try to stay humble, shouldn’t complain
But still I trip and I stumble, sometimes give in to the pain
Maybe it’ve worked if I wasn’t so emotionally distant
Left me in the dirt, said you always busy and inconsistent
Mind was always missing, I heard but I never listened
I thought, but I never felt a fucking thing don’t get it twisted
I knew you already knew that
These hoes could never see through that, want you, but cannot pursue that
Gotta provide for my brothers, who welcomed me like a shoe mat
I know you tried but it’s hard to see all the times that I blew at
From many miles away
I know you tried and you prayed
And hoped one day I’d get over it all and smile it away
I really wish it that simple I’d fucking fly on a plane
And book that ticket to Paris so I could take you away
Through many years, had plenty fears, I skid steer
Faced em like a deer in the headlights, they in my rear mirror
With all my haters and doubters Know they can hear clear
U.Fø’s year, you don’t fuck wit me better steer clear
Went through too much in 2019
They told me go and eat shit, but it’s funny cause mines clean
Listen dummy this rhyme scheme
Snatches honey’s and dimes please
Your bitch changing in front me, you fronting on my team



Up at night I toss and turn I don’t know what to say. I meant it when I said I wanna talk, but I’m afraid. I want you here right next to me, but pushing you away, is how I keep your colours safe from me, I love them but I’m gray
