Part One: Hello

[Verse 1]

I've seen it your eyes, you're almost gone

Cry your song all night long

Tell me if I'm doing something wrong

Because I can't seem to get you on

Maybe I'm overreacting

Getting my cards & transacting

Calling all your numbers all my phone

You won't ever be alone

[Refrain]

Hello, you seem to have no place to call your own

You've lost all sense of house and home

But you're not alone, you'll never see the message if you roam

All it takes a hello

[Chorus]

Dear God, fuck have you been all along?

I was wrong, all my belief is gone

You could have said something, you know that?

I said hello, you could have wrote back!

[Verse 2]

Maybe that's not what we've been for

Maybe that's a sign of peace

But the light at the end of the tunnel

Doesn't sow as much as it reaps

So where am I know? Can't say a sound

At the bridge where my life almost ended now

You can't tell me nothing, I won't believe it

You can't see it

[Chorus]

Dear God, fuck have you been all along?

I was wrong, all my belief is gone

You could have said something, you know that?

I said hello, you could have wrote back!

Dear God, fuck have you been all along?

I was wrong, all my belief is gone

You could have said something, you know that?

I said hello, you could have wrote back!

[Refrain]

Hello, you seem to have no place to call your own

You've lost all sense of house and home

But you're not alone, you'll never see the message if you roam

All it takes a hello

A hello, oh no, just a hello, hello

[Outro]

Never again, never again, never again, never again

Never again, never again, never again, never again, never again, never again, never again never again

Never again

Part Two: Numbers

[Verse 1]

Count up your portion, count up your checks

Feeding your fam while you're comin' at my neck

When you gonna freeze with the cruel dramatics?

I'm not inspired by your foolish practice

Butter your bullshit, set up your fence

I'm just the chicken giving you the egg

Soon you're gonna see that your breath was wasted

Don't speak too soon on your doubts, you're making

A big deal out of a little thing

[Pre-Chorus]

Why should I try to conform to formulated paths, when

Clearly all my instincts led to something more magical?

[Chorus]

Am I just a number? 'Cause it seems like that's your goal

You push us past our limits just to watch decimals grow

Oh, I need a reason why I'm looked at like a joke

Until I prove you wrong like I've done time and time before, and

All my intuition says is expansion comes first, but

Not just by material, I'm talkin' 'bout in here

My heart space and my cranium must be loved too, my dear

Don't push me to the edge until I'm useless and can't feel

[Verse 2]

Take me to Venus, let me explode

I'm ready to pop like a volcano

Jump over me like you're playing hot lava

Emotions on one hundred thousand, who's gonna

Shake me like soda creme? But of course

Use all your words to distract from the source

Of where all the growth on the paper happens

Leave me alone to my own concoction

[Pre-Chorus]

Prickin' all my fingertips to carve out many roads

Pushin' out the petals from the bud of what I know

[Chorus]

Am I just a number? 'Cause it seems like that's your goal

You push us past our limits just to watch decimals grow

Oh, I need a reason why I'm looked at like a joke

Until I prove you wrong like I've done time and time before, and

All my intuition says is expansion comes first, but

Not just by material, I'm talkin' 'bout in here

My heart space and my cranium must be loved too, my dear

Don't push me to the edge until I'm useless and can't feel

[Outro]

Am I just a number?
