[Intro]

ELYIT

Yeah

[Chorus]

Don't wanna pull up in a hearse before my prime

I'm in my purse right now - stacking until I die

Walking the thinnest line

But I'ma get what's mine

Out here trying to thrive while I'm still alive

[Verse 1]

No time, can't wait

All mine, full plate

I shine, don't fade

You tried - too late

Is it fate? Destiny?

This my world I'm manifesting it

Yeah my game and I'm the best at it

Warm psyche full of dark wretched shit

The good and the bad

Try to keep it all balanced but I get sad

Feel kinda like trash so I get glad - bags, stack 'em all up

Thеn I take 'em on out to the fucking dump

Rеlease it all get my mind right

Batter up I'm on the fucking stump

Swing and a miss so I take flight

Higher and higher

Light that shit, only burn that fire

Holy smoke Batman I'm a joker

Roll with the rebels the and the tokers

At the neck of an opp like I'm a choker

Don't call me a flop when you a coaster

Soak up my drip then hop off my tip

Namaste baby I do not trip

[Chorus]

Don't wanna pull up in a hearse before my prime

I'm in my purse right now - stacking until I die

Walking the thinnest line

But I'ma get what's mine

Out here trying to thrive while I'm still alive

[Verse 2]

Yeah - wake up check the phone

In my bed alone (hey)

Get up hit the road 'til I'm in the zone

Try to brush off the bullshit but I'm only human

That's what happens when you care too hard

And wear your heart on your sleeve

No hubris

Renegade minded

I'm fly I don't need a co-pilot - Solo

On my Millennium Falcon I soar through the sky and I won't do no hiding

Push through the disillusionment

Make sure they ain't confusing it

I am E-L-Y-I-T

No need to see ID then, alrighty?

A-C-A-B high key

Stay high numb my mind 'cause state sanctioned violence highly likely

Against my people it's mighty frightening

To be black and queer in America

Succumb to the fear build up barriers

Or live in blissful ignorance embrace the cognitive dissonance so you won't grow wearier

But I digress - try my best to focus on the fun

True happiness might not ever come

It's a shot in the dark - I'm never dumb but I'm still hopeful

See myself thriving and flying from coast to coast like I'm tad ghostal

So damn emotional

Dodging delusions of grandeur as I meander down life's roller coaster

[Chorus]

Don't wanna pull up in a hearse before my prime

I'm in my purse right now - stacking until I die

Walking the thinnest line

But I'ma get what's mine

Out here trying to thrive while I'm still alive
