[Intro: Bas]

I guess the lights that been shining a lot brighter

Let's have a drink with the girls from the videos


[Verse 1: Bas]

If I wasn't preoccupied, self-absorbed, yourself alone

I left you with, I got the world

Still felt alone and ever since been lost in the stars

Missing on what Heaven sent godly

I'm faulty, I'm fraud maybe

Probably was the reason that your dog hate me

But fuck that bitch like the law baby

Girl, I'm just playing but I'm off though

We should grab a drink before we link up at the crossroad

Pick it all apart

"Don't be tickling my heart," you'd say

"I was with you from the start," you'd say

"I really thought you did it for the art," you'd say

I guess the lights that been shining a lot brighter

Let's have a drink with the girls from the videos

I must have been through this once in my past life

I see the pitfalls, dodging the difficult

[Chorus: Bas + The Hics]

Rolling down the slippery slope, stay on point I tippy toe it

Won't you smile it gives me hope

Pray that you forgive me for it

Rolling down the slippery slope, stay on point I tippy toe it

Won't you smile it gives me hope

Pray that you forgive me for it


[Verse 2: Bas]

You understand?

Can't remember last night a nigga under Xans

My haters I lost sight can't see 'em under Bans

My niggas yell, "let's ride" they see I got a plan

Me I understand, I just understand it

I pray to God when I see how far we've come

Tears of joy I think we could drown the sun

And let that marijuana twist up

Put me right up in the lineup never been sub

I'm next up never mind when we get snubbed

They getting Michael Jordan, Harold Miner mixed up

We gon' show 'em that Dreamville this year

We gon' show 'em that when the people come together ain't no holding back

And that's the only fact

I been holding back tears for these young black souls lost in the past year

Some by the law, they ain't even flash steel

Some by they own dogs, most by their own fears

And you can watch it all young nigga stand still

Niggas yelling 100, they ain't half real

Fuck a line in the sand, I put a line on the dot and leave you right where you stand, and I'm just trying to understand

And I'm just trying to understand

[Chorus: Bas + The Hics]

Rolling down the slippery slope, stay on point I tippy toe it

Won't you smile it gives me hope

Pray that you forgive me for it

Rolling down the slippery slope, stay on point I tippy toe it

Won't you smile it gives me hope

Pray that you forgive me for it


[Outro: The Hics]

Been here before, lust in my eye

Times in the past

Drowning my sorrows, my fears speaking louder

In my head getting louder

I'm holding on tight darling

The roots to places I found

I'm closing my eyes now

I'm back with you in my mind
