[Intro]
Yeah, you know when you staring up at the ceiling
Sometimes it's hard to figure out what's really spinning
The fans or your mind
Yeah, so what I need y'all to do is
Just look up, tune everything out, and live
Hey, you know
[Chorus]
I don't recall ever graduating at all
Sitting in my room watching ceiling fans on the wall
Ceiling fans on the wall, ceiling fans on the wall
Living for today because we never promised tomorrow
I don't recall ever graduating at all
Sitting in my room watching ceiling fans on the wall
Ceiling fans on the wall, ceiling fans on the wall
Living for today because we never promised tomorrow
[Verse 1]
The elevators broken, the stairs second room on the left
I seen my ex on my mattress sucking my dude for a check
She ain't say nuttin while he nuttin', she was in for the money
He in it from the back because even he knew he was frontin'
But you know, can't be too careful
In the hood, that's what they there for
Even your kin ain't your friend, they heart hollow as air holes
That's exactly how I spit it, it's exactly how I live it
Like a drunk man on his gimmick, ceiling fans still spinning
Turn around see the smoke fill up my living quarters
Packing gun shells dipped in water, that's what you go tell your daughter
Opened up the bathroom door and seen somebody shooting up
Peek-a-boo'd out those window shutters seen somebody shooting up
Bam, duck, bust, that's what procedure calls
Not knowing, not being involved but gets you locked behind them walls
I just lost one of my closest friends to the jury
Still, the blades on the fan keep turning, and you know
[Chorus]
I don't recall ever graduating at all
Sitting in my room watching ceiling fans on the wall
Ceiling fans on the wall, ceiling fans on the wall
Living for today because we never promised tomorrow
I don't recall ever graduating at all
Sitting in my room watching ceiling fans on the wall
Ceiling fans on the wall, ceiling fans on the wall
Living for today because we never promised tomorrow
[Verse 2]
They say what's up with your lifestyle, you living off a dream
Staring at the ceilings till that lint in your pocket turn into green
How bout the schooling and the college
[?] at the job
But you just scribblin your number, forgetting about the wallet
And I respond to get your own [?]
[?] something like I ran from my home [?]
Just by my lonesome
Bumming off the [?] and let me use the sofa
Gotta keep drumming or this marching band is over, done deal
It's real in the feel when the snake bites don't heal
When the [?]
[?] is all I am, bedridden for months
Staring up the town's sky watching my fans do stunts
18 reflects my age, infinite on my ambitions (Kells)
And 12 will be my greatness if translated into inches
Which means one foot up in yo ass
Biblical when I say don't dance
I'm the Kid, I see y'all but you got [?]
[Chorus]
I don't recall ever graduating at all
Sitting in my room watching ceiling fans on the wall
Ceiling fans on the wall, ceiling fans on the wall
Living for today because we never promised tomorrow
I don't recall ever graduating at all
Sitting in my room watching ceiling fans on the wall
Ceiling fans on the wall, ceiling fans on the wall
Living for today because we never promised tomorrow
[Outro]
And it's like that
When you living this lifestyle, man
And your whole life's spinning around in a big circle
You just gotta keep focus and live
Yah
