Refutation (You Say You Want Love)

I got a bad reputation
They say I'm bringing evil down on my whole generation
Had the world in my hands, cooked it up in a spoon
And I shot it in my foot, call it refutation

Don't need no medication, nah
Girl I'd just rather have elimination than illumination
Came close one night, law tower climbed high
And I almost jump off out of desperation
Lost in my hesitation

Desolation in my heart, devastation's where I started
Saw my city burn down that was a revelation
Built it back from the ground with the power of my sound
Let this rhythm take you down into a meditation

If I can save one heart from defeated resignation
Then break out the bong 'cause it's time for celebration

Now I know I'm not the only one been looking for some help
Swimming in the deep like my name Michael Phelps
Depression was my prison had to break out of hell
No one could show me how to do it so I did it by myself
Used my imagination

Saw a brighter future set it as my destination
Heard a voice in my head giving me the navigation
Brought the water for my mind like irrigation, it said

"You say you want love
But you don't know what that means
You say you wanna be touched
But you can't feel anything"

Yo check the vibration
Sikán on your speakers put your eyes in dilation
Got ghosts in my room like a holy congregation
Sing 'em songs that my grandma used to sing in divination

They my inspiration
Funny how the dead gives the living motivation
Keep you walking on the track like you're never turning back
'Til the drugs and the money make you break your concentration

Been watching stars fall into the ocean every night, yeah
Same time airplanes be rising in they flight
And when I think about life I feel time slip away
Watch the darkness swallow up the light
'Til dawn bring me liberation

Been fell out of line with the Earth's gravitation
Don't act like you don't know me when you really is my homie
Just 'cause I didn't live up to your expectations
Man let's have a conversation, woah

Young blood strung out from Malibu to Union Station
All that matters in the end is our family and friends
And whether or not we give into all these temptations

Now I know I got a couple sins of my own
Can't turn away a woman hitting up my phone
And I spend too many days getting stoned all alone
But for a while I gave a good girl a home, she said

"You say you want love
But you don't know what that means
You say you wanna be touched
But you can't feel anything."

You say that you want my love
But you don't know what that means
You say you wanna be touched
But you can't feel anything

Girl I been praying for so long
For someone to come and save me, save me
I been praying for so long
For you to come back and take me, take me

I been praying for so long
For someone to come and save me, save me
I been praying for so long
For you to come back and take me, take me
