[INTRO: locals.only & jeanis]

You can't cause you wasting your time (You can't cause you wasting your time)

You playing but you not even mine (You playing but you not even mine)

You tell your friends that you fine (You tell your friends that you fine)

You win cause you nickel and dime (You win cause you nickel and dime)


[VERSE 1: locals.only]

How you got seven bodies at sixteen, yeah?

Is that what you make of this American dream, yeah?

Got liquid luck and low self esteem, yeah

Keep your eyes peeled it's not what it seems, yeah

Headlines don't happen to friends

I always knew that somehow it'd end

I wish that we could make amends

Hoping you'd be faithful and bend

Hoping you'd be faithful (Hoping you'd be faithful)

And bend but (And bend but)

[CHORUS: locals.only & jeanis]

You can't cause you wasting your time (You can't cause you wasting your time)

You playing but you not even mine (You playing but you not even mine)

You tell your friends that you fine (You tell your friends that you fine)

(I'm fine)

You win cause you nickel and dime (Nickel and dime)

You can't cause you wasting your time (Wasting)

You saying you felt the decline (I-)

You made me think it's all by design (I swear I'll never lie)

You win this time cause you lied

[VERSE 2: locals.only & jeanis]

Sometimes I wonder how I didn't figure out (How)

Was I overwhelmed, head in up the clouds? (Head in the clouds)

Looking for water in the drought (It's water)

Do you even know what I am talking about? (About)

[CHORUS: locals.only & jeanis]

You can't cause you wasting your time (Wasted)

You playing but you not even mine (Ohh)

You tell your friends that you fine (Oh yeah oh yeah)

You win cause you nickel and dime (Nickel and dime)


[OUTRO: JAY Z (SAMPLE)]

I'm dead serious I'm not lying to you

And I always left there feeling like separated

But I don't think I was ready for, you know what I'm saying

That kind of, that level of getting to know yourself

That's the most difficult thing to do

It's easy to get to know other people

Like, get to know yourself and like really like know yourself

And really ask yourself the questions that you don't wanna hear
