Dropout

Anytime I talk DMT, I think of Ronquillo
Back when we used to sing around campus
City College was hardly fuel in our minds
We'd rather fantasize on what could entrance us
Behind the art building a few of them would burn bush
Pass it to me, then turn, look back to me 'cause I never want it
But it was a vibe, homies with open minds
Couple guitars, sides, thinking about thighs
Hunting for feminine energy just to shoot the gun
But I learned to point that equal sign instead
Dropped out because I was pointed to the road
Staying there was like pointing it to my head
Your world is never enough unless you see it
And I needed to be unconscious under another space
So no sleep under a slow city
But it puts me in my place when I visit Riverside

Riverside, Riverside, Riverside
Meet me over at Shell Taco
Follow me down Alessandro
Palm trees with the sunshine
Lemme visit Riverside
Riverside, Riverside, Riverside
Homies gonna pack a bowl
Then we jog on Mount Rubidoux
Flat top, later on tonight

Memories, memories, memories
Past times when I'd give away my energy
Some friends with privilege some with big dreams
Some with poppy seeds some with 'phetamines
I guess a big heart with open doors has a lot of room
But that's a lot of weight to carry 'round
I look forward and flap my wings now
But it still brings me back when I visit Riverside

Riverside, Riverside, Riverside
Meet me over at Shell Taco
Follow me down Alessandro
Palm trees with the sunshine
Lemme visit Riverside
Riverside, Riverside, Riverside
Homies going to pack a bowl
Then we jog on Mount Rubidoux
Flat top, later on toni—

See yeah, y'all pulling out like a whole other side of me, I can't handle that no more
I'mma be real with it for the rest of my life at this point (Yeah)

I'm in a boat tryna float
If you knew what I'm dealt with, then you know why I wrote
Hard to know what's real, show what's sincere
You know that feel? Nah
They say giving up is as easy as popping a pill
I'mma need me a Tylenol, 'cause it makes me ill
They say food for the soul, but I can't really relate
I feel like I need a plate, I feel at my least today
Probably even mad enough to say just what I wouldn't say
Almost like I had it then I didn't and wanna escape
But nah I'm not a flake, I just wanna leave
No friend of mine could understand unless they know me
And if they don't, then they don't see why I'm sad
Then they ain't worth the notes and they ain't worth the wraith
And I really feel kinda bad, 'cause I dip out on people
And I walk out quick 'cause I don't feel equal
And I seem like I care more, for you than I me
Just know that I don't
Just focus on team building
It's hard to cross 'cause family can double cross you
Friends shrug if they lost you
So much has change—man, fuck
Much rather get knowledge than get played
Tryna stay clean and just fade (Fade, fade)
