Verse 1: Golden Boy

West up you gotta get it off your chest-a

Outset to step round town on a quest

To count sheep

Rest down to sleep and ya stressed the sound reach echoing from the streets

Only the owls and beasts are prowling

And wild, once again it's late

You're guaranteed to be the last one awake

When it's time to hit bedsheets drowsing

Check with Growsky , you can take the direction from the mountains

You see them lights now?

Beacons in the night that's a skyline-lighthouse

Leadin through the streets, from the freezing heights

Needing something to eat right now from the weed son

Shoulda suck around for that pizza

You had to bounce though, yo take the alley chief

Crowds around three, it's too loud like the valley be

Foul hoes, grabbed a little piece of the maui

From the red team ounce jammy found on the down low

You gotta save it for a rainy day

Or waste it on a J, burn out and fade away

Hey it never really need it till you lost it

And never learn, better turn off and cut across bridge

Shit, the city sprawls in front off us spinning a metropolis

And might be a minute till we finish this

Odyssey, honestly I feel it that you just want too sleep

But you gotta be strong come on stomp them feet

Jammy (a Red Team member) found a ounce of weed (maui) and Goldenboy took a little bit of it with him as he left. Now he is deciding whether or not to save it for a rough day or to smoke it now and drift off

While walking he gets hungry(while hes high) and wishes he had stuck around for pizza, could refer to a line he says on “craigs house” when he and his friends ordered pizza.
