[Intro]

Out of body, out of mind

Aye, uh, out of mind, aye, uh


[Hook 1 - x2]

Out of body, out of mind

You're too far gone to change your mind

The way it's told, the blames all mine

But it still haunts me all the time


[Verse 1]

Aye, aye, uh

Felt like a nuisance, a burden, a chain

I had got used to diverting the blame

Leaving my mark, and it turns to a stain

World really isn't as far as you see

Worried about us, you was worried 'bout me

This like a perfect storm, I'm off 3

Dulling the pain, I'm Colin, new jeans

Look at my face, I barely get sleep

Mama like, "Eat sumn, you look dead"

It's like constant tweak in my head

Far too many weeks from my bed

Aye, but gotta keep shit going


[Verse 2]

Aye

Rollin on the floor

She just said that she don't wanna see me anymore

She gon' get to sneakin', and retweetin', yes of course

I just keep it pushin', you wan' be me, need some force

That felt more like sports

Got no time to loaf around, you damn near built a fort

And I ain't try to break it down, I just knocked out the door

Now look at it sore

Now look, you ignore

Sometimes it be great

But sometimes it's like war


[Hook 2 - x3]

Aye, aye

Mumble back and forth

I can't hold it in

You too back and forth

You gon' fold again

I move back and forth

I slide like the wind

Let's get back to odds

This is so pretend
