Parachute
I'm so dense, I just don't get it
How the game changed so fast and I don't fit in
Oh, there goes Robby again, Always pretendin'
That his problems aren't his, Get over it
Okay, I ain't tryin' to be no Kendrick or J. Cole
I'm just tryin' to leave a market that stays cold
Let me tell you how I've felt since last April
I've been criss-crossing the country, been drainin' my bank roll
I ain't tryin' to sound ungrateful or unthankful
But my opportunities are startin' to fade though
And on this crisp fall night, I guess it's all right
That I just fall right on my face and fade away
I need a parachute, a parachute, a parachute
Yeah, I need a parachute, a parachute, a parachute
Cuz I'm free fallin', and I ain't stoppin'
Until my feet land on solid ground
I need a parachute, a parachute, a parachute
How is this my career? Who's this man in the mirror?
Did I say my name three times and summon my fears?
Yet I still haven't lost the respect of my peers?
Do they know something I don't, is the break still near?
Or maybe it's some sign of respect
For dragging them into the game where they're getting their checks
For making them believe that we were all next
Or for landing in the pitfalls so they knew where to step
I don't get it still, I told y'all I was dense
How for 12 hot summers, I kept it so tense
Like it was gonna happen but I lost my belief
So why am I even still on this mic, man? Beats me.
I need a parachute, a parachute, a parachute
Yeah, I need a parachute, a parachute, a parachute
Cuz I'm free fallin', and I ain't stoppin'
Until my feet land on solid ground
I need a parachute, a parachute, a parachute
I'm flyin', fallin' right through the clouds
I see the end comin', there's never been no doubt
And all the positivity has gotten me nothin'
But a darker perspective when I hear the leaves rustlin'
February's comin', each one gets more frigid
The chill in my bones, it feels never endin'
And the radio keeps me so goddamned livid
That I keep warm enough just to keep on livin'
They won't ever end and my head it keeps on spinnin'
Put me out of my misery
This isn't me no more, it's just a memory
When it becomes the end of me, will you visit me?
Or will you even care to remember me?
I need a parachute, a parachute, a parachute
Yeah, I need a parachute, a parachute, a parachute
Cuz I'm free fallin', and I ain't stoppin'
Until my feet land on solid ground
I need a parachute, a parachute, a parachute
How the game changed so fast and I don't fit in
Oh, there goes Robby again, Always pretendin'
That his problems aren't his, Get over it
Okay, I ain't tryin' to be no Kendrick or J. Cole
I'm just tryin' to leave a market that stays cold
