lyrics

(Intro)
*voicemail*

(Verse 1)
So, much, love, i've, been given
So why do I feel this way?
Take a lap, take a breath
Take another step upward
In fact it's emotional depth
Here's another queen crossing my path like chess

(Verse 2)
Been playing in the sand since a little man
Grains in the pale, she was right there
Like a tandem we used to hold hands
You know I never liked to play pretend but
Hope will string you out until the end cuz'
Late night, thought I wouldn't notice
Miss Dream you had my heart and you broke it
Left me stranded searching open ocean

(Hook)
When I wake I see all the same
I can't live here no more
This piece of me is too hard to tame
So I can't stay here no more

(Verse 3)
Past writtens, unscribbled
Decyphering codes but now we take it up one level
One sip and now i'm feeling my head level
This gift is mighty tempting
After lift, all aboard the boat of penmanship
Why they tugging my mast, I got a quote to fix
That shit be ordinary
They want me posted in a cemetery, mossy granite stone
I'll leave you nothing but my bones to carry
That shit be ordinary
Put in my position, i'd like to see what you would do to make it
Ain't enough to have a steak upon my dinner plate
I need to live my life before I see the pearly gates
I've been around, seen things I never thought
But still I got a feeling that there's even more to take
More to find, mortified, borderline, never rushing cuz'
You wanna see the body fore' the wake?

(Hook)
When I wake I see all the same
I can't live here no more
This piece of me is too hard to tame
So I can't stay here no more
