Jhene Aiko - Sail Out Album Lyrics

The Vapors

[Verse 1]
You been on my mind
I been tryna let it go
I been tryna find
Somethin' as incredible
As you and I
But that's a never
No feeling can compare to you
You just gotta let me know

[Hook]
Can I hit it again?
Can I hit it again?
Can I hit it again?
Can I hit it again?
[x2]

(Take me over...
I'm under your control)

[Verse 2]
You stay on the grind
I'm always available
Rollin' in my ride
So I gotta take it slow
You got me so high
Up, up and away we go
Racing to the sky
I'm feel unfadable
Cuz the vapors
Can save us
And take us
And make us believe
That we are free
We can be free
So can I please

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Vince Staples]
Please don't rain on my parade
The falling from the sky
Just remind of the days when you was cry-ing for attention
I ignored it as a phase until you couldn't
Take tension
Now I wish you would have stayed
Walking through the smoke and mirrors
I'm burdened, you burning bridges
Memories fading faded it help you to not
Remember
The trials and tribulations
Eyes red from crying
The perfect way to disguise it you was
Blinded by our fate
Please don't rain on my parade because this
Float was built for you
Kinda hard to chase you down when you
Floating through the room
All you wanted was the truth and all I want-
Ed was my way
Regardless how I word the phrase all you
Tend to hear me say is

[Hook]

Bed Peace

[Verse 1: Jhene Aiko]
Wake up, wake up
Gotta get this paper, get this cake up
Gotta do my hair, gotta put on makeup
Gotta act like I care about this fake stuff
Straight up what a waste of my day
If I had it my way I'd roll out of bed
Say bout 2:30 mid day
Hit the blunt then, hit you up to come over to my place
You show up right away
We make love then and then we f*ck
And then you'd give me my space
Yeah

[Hook: Jhene Aiko]
What I am trying to say is
That love is ours to make so we should make it
Everything else can wait
The time is ours to take so we should take it

[Verse 2: Jhene Aiko]
Wake up, wake up, bake up
Gotta heat the vape up
Lets get faded
Gotta call your job tell em' you won't make it
Ain't nobody here baby lets get wasted
We should just get naked
Cause I be working hard and I know you be on that same shit
Every other day's a different game that you just can't win
I just want to ease your mind and make you feel all right
So go head tell your baby mama you gon be with me tonight
Right

[Hook: Jhene Aiko]
What I am trying to say is
That love is ours to make so we should make it
Everything else can wait
The time is ours to take so we should take it

[Verse 3: Childish Gambino]
It's not love, but it's pretty close
Hot fudge and a little smoke
I didn't mean it means nothing to you
Hands locked on my black couch with nothing to do
Can't stop on cloud 20
Married to the drugs, but the feels keeps coming
Finally stop crying, but your nose is still running
Wipe it on my shirt, haha I need sleep
You tell me that you wanna do it big
I love when you say "guess what?" (What? What?)
Giving me stories of another nigga kid
And I wonder why I'm all messed up (up up up up)
Cause we gotta be responsible sometimes
Being a class act nevermind my alumni
I don't wanna be a round a baby so dumb high
I don't see the beauty of a momma on insides
Curled up with my head on your chest
It's the best remedy for the pain and the stress
If the world doesn't change then we'll never get dressed
It will be like this to the kiss of the death
Of my soul, bowl of the blue dream ,no
Not a good team, once sold two half's
No joke, who laughs?
Just us (Just us, just us)

[Verse 4: Jhene Aiko]
Okay, got this OJ and Jose
Mixed it up with that Rose
We gon' do this our own way
Alright, okay,
What is it that your smoking?
Piece it up with this peace and love
And this peace and love like the old days

[Hook: Jhene Aiko]
What I am trying to say is
That love is ours to make so we should make it
Everything else can wait
The time is ours to take so we should take it

[Outro: Jhene Aiko]
We should stay right here
We should lay right here
Cause everything is okay right here
You should stay right here
We should lay right here
Cause everything is okay right here

Stay Ready (What A Life)

[Jhene Aiko]
We do not exist in
Any other instant
Here in this dimension
You and I are meant to be
I have waited lifetimes to find you
Now that you're here
I can remind you
Of the things you've been dreamin'
Times two
I promise you
If you just give me 24
Man, all I need is 24 hours
I promise you'll want plenty more
You'll probably be with it forever
So how does it sound
Us on the ground
Giving you my love?
There's no place quite like here
There's no better time than now
You gotta stay ready
There's no place quite like here
There's no better time than now
That's why I stay ready

[Kendrick Lamar]
Tell me find your spot with the warning that I might slip
And when you climb on top that's the ultimate road trip
Ride on my like your Pac got me thinkin' it's 96'
I can rap on some nineties shit, wrap your leggings around my hip
I'm so into it tourists want to come speculate
But if I stay monogamous promise this kiss will always taste like candy
And yea, it's obvious momma now probably can't stand me
I'm sure they're tired of this look that you have when you're antsy
We gon' f*ck around (Mmm), we gon' f*ck around
And triple through triplets of babies right now
And that might break the record and no, that don't mean you're fertile
That means we're f*cking reckless, plus we don't use protection
I find myself reading old text messages when I'm bored
We find ourselves sexting 'til that connection is restored
I know that sounds immature, but if we never grow up
Then I wish you good luck on the seas that's inside this wall

Come to me
Come, come to me
Look at what you've done to me
You put a gun to me
Then you brought the sun to me

Shine like blood diamonds
Learning to have patience
Only cause you are timeless
The universe energy doesn't lie
And this chemistry is infinity at a million
Times
I wrote a million rhymes to scrabble your
Star power
Now the 24 bars, you get 24 hours

All that I know is right now
Nothing's for sure but, right now
Gotta get yours like, right now

What a life

I been through some shit man
But I be on my shit man
I decided
That what you give
Is what you're given
So I been tryna do it right
I been doin like
Whatever gets me through the night

What a life

I'm steady always on the go
You steady always on the go
We steady losin all control

What a life

They say
The truth ain't pretty
But comin out that pretty mouth
The truth is fitting
Cuz you ain't never talkin lout
And you know plenty
Yea you know what I'm talkin bout
Cuz you just get me
Yea you so pretty

If everything is dipped in gold
Then baby it will never grow
Everything sweet ain't sugar coated

What a lie

What a life
What a life that I've been given
What a life
What a life that I been living
What a life
What a life we die to live in
What a life

WTH

I am Alice
I'm in Wonderland
Where's the rabbit?
He is late again
Goodness
Gracious
I can't wait for him
Who has got the time?
Round and round and
Round and round we go
It's just like the
Same scenario
Good for nothing
Feels like somethin' ain't right

[Hook:]
I might
I might've got way too high

I am trippin'
I keep slippin'
I cannot recognize
What's the difference
In pretending and
Living a real lie?
Ha ha ha ha ha
Everything is spinnin now
Ha ha ha ha ha
Have you seen the ground

[Repeat Hook]

[Ab-Soul:]
Break it down, roll it up
Mountains and valleys
Seashells from Sally
Ego removed but still in tune exactly
Pride to the side
Third eye winking at me
My what a ride
Real trippy shit
I glimpse with a squint
But I can see a whole grip
My retinas red
My vision is crystal
Didn't use pencil
But it's true I led
My way to this sedated state of mind I al-ways dread
My daddy did it
This is the state of mind I always had
I'm mad he died before we got to have a
Man to man
I got two packs of sweet aromatics and 14
Grams
So I take a deep breath
Puff, puff, pass
Part of my paranoia
I'm just a product of my past
I show you how to let your soul sail
Sparking lala
Talking to Allah
Might of got way too high

[Hook]

The Worst

Tell me what you say now?
Tell me what you say
Come again?

If you cannot stay down
Then you do not have to pretend
Like there is no way out
I shoulda never let you in
Cause you got me face down

And don't take this personal
But you're the worst
You know what you've done to me
And although it hurts I know
I just can't keep runnin' away

[Hook:]
I don't need you [x4]
But I want you
I don't mean to [x4]
But I love you

Tell me what you say now
Tell me what you say?
You said that you would come again
You (said) that we would remain friends but
You know that I do not depend on
Nothing or no one
So why would you show up
So uninvited then
Just change my mind like that

Please don't take this personal
But you ain't shit
And you weren't special
Til I made you so
You better act like you know
That I've been through worse than you
I just can't keep running away
(But I don't need you)

[Hook]

Everybody's like
He's no item
Please don't like em
He don't wife em
He one nights em
I never listened
No
I shoulda figured though
All that shit you was spittin'
So unoriginal
But it was you
So I was with it
Then tell you the truth
Wish we never did it

Cause I usually do
Stick to the business
But you came out the blue
And then you just flipped it
God damn baby
My mind's blown
Be forgettin'
You live in a different time zone
Think I know what this is
It's just the time's wrong
Yeah I know what you did
But baby I'm grown
And my love is patient
And kind, and shit
This is real we can build
Through different types of shit
If you was really the realest
Wouldn't be fightin' it
I think your pride is just
In the way
Funny how everything changed
Once you got all that you wanted
Nothing was ever the same

[Hook:]
And though
I don't need you [x4]
I still want you
I don't mean to [x4]
But I love you

I don't need you [x4]
But I want you
I don't mean to [x4]
But I love you

3:16 AM

Out of place, out of space & time
Wide awake out of papers, I'm
Not okay, I am out my mind
Outer space, that's where
I've been going
To a place where
Place where nobody knows
Floating, at a pace where
Now you see me, now you don't

I do not feel the fear of falling
I wanna fly
If it all goes well, then I will
But what if I don't?
I'll be right where I was before
But I'm not alone
You say "take my hand"
And we go (and we go)
And we go (and we go)
And I hope that we don't overdose
Cause we don't (cause we don't)
No we don't (no we don't)
Ever know when we have had enough

Wait
Now my thoughts so cloudy
And my heart's so crowded
With pain
I am so frustrated
Like my soul's been taken away
Broken promise of everything
That I thought you were
Thought you said this would never hurt
That's what it did
That is all

I do not feel the fear of falling
Thought I could fly
It didn't go well, but oh well
What do you know?
I'm right back where I was before
But I'm not alone
You say "take my hand"
And we go (and we go)
And we go (and we go)
And I hope that we dot overdose
Cause we don't (cause we don't)
No we don't (no we don't)
Ever know when we have had enough

Ima be so cold
Need some more
I've never felt these things before
Ima think, for sure
Please don't go
How could you not need me no more?
I don't get it
You're the only thing that I love
You're the only thing that I want
You're the only reason
The only reason

I do not feel the fear of falling
I wanna fly
If it all goes well, then I will
But what if I don't?
I'll be right where I was before
You're all that I know

Comfort In Ending

One, two, one two...
Thought I told you not to trust these hoes
Say they love you, when you know they don't
Say they will, but shit, you know they won't
Yeah, you hear me, you don't feel me, though
And you are not the only one...
You are not the only one...
You are not the only one...
You are not the only one...

Okay, f*ck it
It was Dominik, David, Braden
All of them did the same to you
Marquis and Sean and Brian
All of them had they way with you
Ever so often you get lost and miss out on everything
Shout-out to Krissy
That's my bitch 'cause she tells me everything
And I was not the only one
I was not the only one to you...
So I was the only lonely one...

Really, we had the perfect end...
That night we shared at the Comfort Inn...
We made love like the world would have ended...
If either of us had admitted..
We were in love...
So I was the only one...

And I should've never took you on a boat for your birthday
And I should've never f*cked you on a boat on your birthday
And I never would've came into your house in the first place
If I would've known that you would hurt me like in the worst way
'Cause that night turned into every weekend and
Every weekend turned to every evening
You took me out and left me in the deep end then
Quis found out and then I had to leave him
'Cus I couldn't be the one to hurt him
Plus I thought you were the one so it was worth it
But really we should've just ended it
That day I was at your crib when...
Your baby mama just burst in,damn

I was weak then and you knew it
I was so weak then and you proved it

'Cus my brother was dying
And you gave me a shoulder to cry on
It was nothing, it's nothing, it's nothing, it's nothing
If it's nothing, it's nothing, it's nothing, it's nothing, it's nothing
Then why'd you...
Then why'd you call it love?
Oh oh

And I was not only one who was hurting
And you were not the only one with the burdens
But if we're nothing, we're nothing, we're nothing, we're nothing, we're nothing, we're nothing
Why would you call this love when you knew that it wasn't?
Why would you call it love when you knew that it wasn't?
If this was not love then please tell me what was it
If this was not love then please tell me what was it

'Cause when I met you at my favorite store
And I saw you working at the door ....
