Please, not forever!
Well, for a week then
Come on, I'll show you the island!
I'm a good dude trying to break bad, maybe doing too good of a job
If it was two of us in all
Then it'd be simpler, but it ain't really felt the same since then
Don't know if I can't, or I won't let myself feel it
"Oh you're such a genuine guy," but you know you're that to too many women
Are you just pretending?
And you wanna fit in the whole world, who do you really care for?
She left lines in your face but it's just you in the mirror
Goddamn, you look stupid when you're jealous
She said, full transparency
I can't help you
But what if I've just stalled in my movement
And this is the outro, so there ain't no conclusion
I thought I found something real that night
Why do you deserve it, playboy, course it changed when it wasn't in person
Then I tripped to the West Coast and then that was the verdict
Me in chelseas and you in Supergas
Me in Chelsea and you in my verses
How many yous will I even address?
Ain't like it's a homonym, is this me at my best?
All these people to meet, but how many you know?
How many come into your life for a night and then go?
I can feel the jadedness creeping in
Whether its CNN or the relentless motion of NYC at ends
I miss the old days, when I could still get scarred
Nowadays, I'm too wise for the easy shit
Bet you rue the day you kissed a writer in the dark
Everything is documented from what we had been
Feels terrible, but it's good music
She said, "why you always got me confused," I said, "don't you know I'm Confucian?"
Eileen said, "eventually I'll change or it won't be worth it"
It kinda explained you and how we went divergent
I used to hope you doing you would involve me
You were so cold-blooded
You were everything that Soho wasn't, that's all I needed,
Back then
And every time I come, I stopped missing you, so I guess I'm over it
If all I miss is that bite on your lower lip, then that's all it is
Like you could tell me anything about me that I don't know
Stop emailing, you just long for a past that you killed
My dad told me no one ever changes, what if I actually will?
Or will I keep embracing half of me still?
If it was 1950, we would be married
Hell, if it was '93 in China, we would be married
But it's us in the city, trying to find the right you and right me
Dating and calibrating, asking who can I be?
It's a shitty place when you can understand why someone did something terrible to you
I don't forgive or forget, but I'll be empirical to you
Tony said I don't have game, but I'm crazy
I just always lacked decision-making
I want all of the good, and none of the bad
I want a you, and not just somebody bagged
If, being young means anything's possible
Then not accomplishing my goals is on me, you gotta know
Tired of tripping over women
Of being codependent
Tired of always taking the path of low resistance
That's the whole thesis, and if I succeeded then I guess you'll hear this
Yeah, yeah
Not much longer we can keep on careless
生你-生你的时候,我们都不稀奇。生完了以后到那个-爷爷-那个你爸爸叫我们去看,我们说工作忙得很!谁让你生得那么早啊 哈哈哈!那时候你都哭都哭不出来,"Ahhhhhhh" 你那个嗓子。你说,我心想是个哑巴啊。后来我就跑到单位上说,我说 "哎呀,有没有聋哑学校啊?" 他们说 "有"。我说 "啊那就好那就好,我孙子是个哑巴!" 我真的是这么想啊 我心想,哎呀,哑巴就哑巴呗,那就什么-是什么样都得接受他吗!
Tell grandma I said, 我有啊有啊有
Ay that's right, bitch, I know, I know, I know
Ooh, yeah, I know, I know
Mama proud of me! I'ma screw that up for sure
Who would I be without all of y'all
You know I get distracted, but you always call
Acting Mark Cuban in Calle Dao
Acting T. Shan in Chinatown
Y'all bring me back when I'm cast off
Me and Lyds been on the trash talk
I ball with Will on the asphalt
Used to ball with him after track club
But my jumper's gone, that's my ass fault
I been jumping and filled up the passport
Every year, it's a new backdrop
I think this one just might last long
December, J visited
My shit was getting real sinister, wasn't it?
I said I'm finished with her bullshitting, and that's when you gave me the Bacardi miniature
You did say you'd need it, took it down easy
And you got me lit like I needed, believe me
Got me chicken noodle when I was hungover
I couldn't talk when your relation over
Been a worse friend, I know (I know)
Seen it firsthand, myself (Myself)
But y'all ain't ditching, even if it's all digital
Meanwhile I cut out the headless like Cicero
I know that I don't write happy, but I've been happy
And it's mostly due to y'all, plus we got a little bit of dough
Just enough so it ain't critical (critical)
Just enough so that it's mission go (Mission go)
It's been a crazy few years, I've been reborn as myself like I'm Piccolo
Yeah, yeah
Tell grandma I said, 我有啊有啊有 (我有啊有啊有!)
Ay, that's right, bitch, I know, I know, I know (I know, I know, I know!)
Took some time, just to find my way home
Oh, ooh
Yeah
Sought the Cali sun, just to feel the distance
I bounty hunt, just to fill what's missing
Back before all the jersey winters
And all of the people I can't surrender
Jake was there for my first sip of liquor, Erika built a friendship off of Tinder
America, now I return, to my first impression of you, I'm on another level
Y'all got me figuring out, me at my best
Just cause I stalled in moving doesn't mean that I stalled in my movement
We're too old for leaving on read
Look at the people I got to know, in my lapel pocket when I gotta go
I've been learning from those who stay an hour then go
Ay, the son been so prodigal
Don't see E-Lin, don't see Tony
Ain't no pretense with the homies
But that's bro bro 'til it's beeping
You won't ever let me forget the old me
Friends were there before the fam' was the priority
Guiding me like I'm Dorothy
And things still only make sense when I'm bouncing them off of you
Y'all unlock more of me
She said, it's funny you know your faults, but you still won't change?
I said, only the good parts, so the real won't fade
Comes a time when you've gotta forget what your dad says
Evolution been my f*cking asset
My route swerved, but my roots firm
Move into a penthouse with Chinese movers
(哎,你小心点!)
Tell grandma I said, 我有啊有啊有 (我有啊有啊有!)
Ay, that's right, bitch, I know, I know, I know (I know, I know, I know!)
Took some time, just to find my way home
Oh, ooh
告诉奶奶,我有啊有啊有
你在我身边,我可走不了丢
Took some time, just to find my way home
Oh, oh
