[Verse 1: Quadeca]

First things first, can we get shit straight?

I've been alone since you left me in your wake

I’ve been alone to reflect on my mistakes

I've been alone since when

When you offered me your forgiveness

I was begging you not to breathe in

Tried to yell at you from a distance

Could you tell when you let me seep in?

Put my feet on the floor, over each, every board

Heard a creak, turning weak, turn the hеat, up some more

It was spreading, you said, "It's housе settling"

It’s nothing, nothing, a howl in the wind

Rationalize me away if it helps

Home sweet home, I can't stay nowhere else

I cuddled up in the vase on the shelf

Ashes, ashes, a place to myself


[Chorus 1: Quadeca]

Anything

Give me anything

Can't let you be

House settling


[Verse 2: Quadeca]

Cracks in the wall, frames that hide it all

Dents in the rug, aging cytosol

Breathe in the air, laced with my withdrawals

Taken by a god, breaking my alarms


[Chorus 2: Quadeca]

Dead to me

Dead to me

Let you breathe

House settling


[Verse 3: Quadeca]

Lock out the pity, you been dizzy, you been tired

You been busy, keep yourself busy, let the paint dry

I feel guilty, I feel guilty, I can't say why

Words you see through the CO

Breaks my heart, but I'll give it a try


[Chorus 2: Quadeca]

Dead to me (What else am I supposed to do?)

Dead to me (Didn't want to cause pain to you)

Let you breathe (Just make my presence known)

House settling (Until it's set in stone)


[Verse 4: Danny Brown]

No, you can't see me, but when you smell me

We going off on a deep sleep (Yeah)

When you inhale me, no, you won’t feel me

We, we going down six feet (Yeah)

Creep, creep through the crack in the walls

Was never there when you called

Now you trapped in that fog (That fog)

Now you’re trapped in that fog

Ain't tryna gas you out, but right now, that’s what's happening

No capping

Fresh out the stove, it's all over

Now it's closed caskets

You dead to me, so rest in peace

When you run into a nigga like me

Make it real hard to breathe

Now you’re stuck and can't leave (Shit)

Can't touch or feel me, but when you're near me

Fill up your chest and your eyes get teary

Say your peace, say no more grief

It's over now, your soul will sleep

No more pain, don't hurt no more

You lost everything you working for

But life goes on, just not with you

Life goes on, just not with you

I'm the air you breathe, can't get away from me

Kill everything, no place for me

Said no one's safe when I touch your face

I'mma leave it cold, just how it go

You dead to me, just go to sleep

You're dead to me, say "R.I.P."

You're dead to me, just go to sleep

You're dead to me, say "R.I.P."


[Instrumental Bridge]


[Chorus 1: Quadeca]

Can't let you be

House settling
