[Intro: Rav]

It's been a lot

I've determined should merely be stopped

Internet venomous, talking the generous sentiments

It's been a bit red about switchin' them up

Sever my umbilical and set a road block

Begging my therapist to better my thoughts

Regulate my chemicals, Adderall my job

And the personal shit like the friends that I've got

Ooh, yet I think that I'm still aloof

My latest discussions are proof

Fed it to a homie just yesterday and they decided

My troubles squeeze me out the coup, truth

Tell me or paraphrase essentially the estimate

Whatever happens, my worst case is the best case

Ergo, I could never know true stress, ay

I could prolly cheer up eating caviar everyday


[Verse 1: Rav]

Maybe sharing this is rude of me

Self-centered tomfoolery

But what about my expectations of a little respect and emotional maturity?

I don't feel like sharing shit no more

My thoughts, my emotions

Tell me "It'll be okay"

Yeah, no shit (yeah, no shit)

The universe won't implode 'cause I feel hollow, but I'm still hollow

And who gives a fuck if I won't or I will tomorrow, guess I can't follow

And so you condescend me

Lying like you comprehend me

Conveniently karma friendly

You cannot disarm my envy, you part of the problem

Acting like my problems petty


[Verse 2: Scuare]

Hope that I'm dope

I know I lack hope, I grow it back slow

Drop my guard for a min' I'm on my own, that's how the night goes

Ask me again how it happened

Tell me again, it ain't lastin'

Tell me I really don't have what it takes

Better take what I get and quit asking, yuh

My mind get fixed on petty shit, yuh

My mind's so dense, I let it slip, yuh

I pretend, I pretend I'm getting it, yuh

But I just can't trust my etiquette

At least I got manners

That's more important to me than my chances

Barely even learn how to beat, my heart dances

Learning that I never needed some answers

Looking for peace while I'm feeding my cancer

So I step, slide, separate

Whole life left field, MIA

Hold my breath, never left my gaze, yeah


[Chorus: Scuare]

So I step, slide, separate

(Step, slide, separate)

Whole life left feel MIA

(Swatch that)

Hold my breath, never met- wait, one more

(Separate my life, my life, my life, my life)


[Verse 3: Kill Bill: The Rapper]

Twenty-thousand leagues under sea, I touch peace (okay, okay)

Step by step, I count it all to crush leaves

I left my faith in you inside of the worm's nest

And now I just talk to myself 'cause I find that it hurts less

Pacing, making faces, I can't shake the feeling

I wanted to kiss the stars but ended up face-to-ceiling

I let you in to let me out and now I'm stuck again

And shit don't make no sense no matter how I structure it

Everyone else gets a pass

Everyone else was just having a bad day, say

Everyone else was just sad

Everyone else gets some slack

But when I'm at my lowest, components start frying inside of the board

On the mic, hit record, I'mma vent to myself

Because I can't afford no more dents in myself

Talking to you is just simple as hell

It's okay till you angry, baby, database my weakest links

Manage how I speak and think, push me to my deepest brinks

Teach me how your demons think, I'm screaming, thinking something's wrong

Sleeping in yo fucking arms and dreaming how they'll crush me

Go on, get it over with


[Chorus: Scuare]

So I step, slide, separate

My whole life left feel MIA

I hold my breath, never- (separate)

(Separate my life, my life, my life, my life)


[Verse 4: Airospace]

I ain't really have words when I started this letter

Adjacent to the static I felt when I met her

It's a cup half full and too empty for effort

Hope to do better, search for the error

Stuck in this net, just seems like forever

We made a good movie and the profits were shared

Between moments of passion and comfort and accidents

Somewhat a massacre, surely I said it

So bad at talking, I'm writing you

Mind moving fast like the type of emotion

So sorry 'cause now you the star of my ocean

I'm lost by the coast and I hope that you know

As I leap into traffic, this war's run cold

These holes in my jacket, pneumonia, I'm so

You queue with semantics, just cut me in half

To the tune of this madness, got pain in my gut

Not one to jack shit I ain't backing up

I've been holding shit away till my J had enough

Niggas always talk flame but your waist's backing up

Shorty started my three but my plates stacking up

Baby, come to my suite, I'm the one packing love

If your ex would call me but I'm stuck strapping up

I write to my letters, now my pain's dapping up

You can remember or forget it but you stay passionate

Got veins in your teeth like you made Dracula

While your teeth sucks me and I payed Acura

If you really knew me, then it's pain averaged out

But what I did in my week that did drain half a lump

Gotta stuttering speech just to strain at the club

If we ever lose weed, then I'll take half the drug

For the stop is just bleak and replaced after ya

Maybe ride in Shits Creek and swim waves after ya

I'm sorry
