[PART I: bullet2thebrain]


[Verse 1]

I know that you got me feelin' certain ways

Even though that I know, you’ll never feel the same

Got me feelin' like I'm JFK

I know that you want me, that’s only in my dreams

Negative to the most, I don't know what that means

Stuck in a fantasy

I don't know why you left me all hopeful

Just to crush me and my heart, you were trouble

You were the light at the end of my tunnel

I had tunnel vision cause now all the hope's gone


[Chorus]

I wanna move away

Where nobody knows my name

Cold like the war we waged

Got me feeling like I'm JFK

I wanna move away

Where nobody knows my name

Cold like the war we waged

Got me feeling like I'm JFK


[Verse 2]

Look, you were the right vibe

Didn't give it off first, till I texted you at night

You don't know but you helped me through rough times

Never felt that good since fall of the one nine

I don’t get it

I was thinking that we had it going

Cause you glowed in the nighttime

Not much of a romantic

But your smile made my heart beat so fast and

I get that you and ex’s don't talk

But how are we equivalent, if we don’t start

And talk about life

I know we did that already, textin' at night

I don't know if your confidence it done shattered

But the two months talking to you they don't matter

Anymore, cause I found the key to the door

That unlocks the pathway to love myself more

I got people supportin’ the dream of a guy

That just wants to find love, somebody in his life

And you played me hard just to lead me on

I don't care, cause I know you'll never hear this song

Man your laugh always used to make me feel better

Seeing you on the daily, just to make paper

Got me blowin' out my brain, call me JFK

But the name gonna haunt me

The wallet and the grave, damn

What a damn shame

Put the time to the album just to get a few plays

Will I ever pop off and remember my name

As the kid that you thought was sweet, but never had feelings

All the girls I used to mess with

Got guys, so now I'm invested

On making myself feel better

These walls see what I see, but that's if I let em


[Chorus]

I wanna move away

Where nobody knows my name

Cold like the war we waged

Got me feeling like I'm JFK

I wanna move away

Where nobody knows my name

Cold like the war we waged

Got me feeling like I'm JFK

Got me feeling like I'm JFK, yeah

You bet I bet I'll move away


[Segue: Astro Syte]

That wasn't the real you

Show them the real you

Stop being scared

Let your emotions go


[PART II: cold war]


[Verse]

I thought you were the one to make me live

Seeing another light after my flame was wicked

That's when I take another hit

You pass the joint but all I feel is the emotions hit

I stay in the clouds just to get away

Get away from you, but then you say my name

I don't admit it, but you'll never leave my brain

I don't admit it, but I think your image only heals the pain

I fantasize about you and I

Driving around the city it's just you and I

The dream that makes me happy only comes with lies

Cause I come to earth, when you're with another guy

In the darkest days you kept me up

You made me learn on not to give a fuck

The hopelessness in my eyes

You'll never see all my pride

Cause you took it, it was a hit and run

You'll never know how much you fucked me up

I hope that when I'm gone you hit me up

And I'll hit you back

Telling you that I'm doing great, but I'm busy I'll text you when I get the chance

I still work hard, 3 years at my retail

I'm zoning out, constantly thinking about this female

I feel immature like I'm fetal, I'm in position, the detail

Makes me feel like all I want in life is love from some people

I hope the guy you want he love you right

I hope that motherfucker showers you with compliments

And makes you happy every night

I hope that when I leave the city you're happy

Cause I don't think I could've done you right

Mmm

I just don't understand on how a little man could feel like a father

Be like my father

Work hard, eat, sleep, a family starter

Only relevant when the things we click on is hiding problems

Feelin like Will in Bel Air with his daddy, but mine still here

It's the connection with somebody that you knew

But now they aren't there

And everyday you think about how maybe they'll come back

But like Tom, 500 days of the summer will pass

Then it's just expectations against reality

Factually, it's better to move on when you don't feel the type of energy

I vibed with you initially, but now the swinging metronome

Is slowing down gradually, but now the BPM is zero


[Chorus]

Tell me if I'm the only one

Feeling just like I'm missing something

Why, why, why you gotta do this to me

Why me

Tell me if I'm the only one

Feeling just like I'm missing something

Why, why, why you gotta do this to me
