Wide Eyes
I've been wishing I could listen
To what you're thinking while skipping rope
When I finish fixing up my shit
I'll find a cig to smoke
Imma be a classic like
Figaro Figaro Figaro
Call myself a rapper
But I can't pull off the triplet flow
Stuck inside my mind I'm being quiet
On my tippy toes
Complex directions but I'm
Driving on a simple road
Everybody want a prince
But ain't nobody kissing toads
Holding it together
But I'm slipping stick to skipping stones
Silver in my slippers
So I can't be acting miserable
Picking up the bill
Wish I hadn't sipped that pinnacle
Years are slipping by
It's only been a couple minutes though
Only time I see the sky
Is when I look for miracles
Eyes open wide
Pop my top off like a centerfold
Having trouble looking backwards
Better take some mental notes
Wind rushing past my ears
I've been taking time to breath
So I don't end up being bitter old
I don't like violence
Some of y'all wear it like a pride pin
Everybody lose
When the side taking sides wins
Lie silent
To the mind doctor I went
They prescribed
Twenty diamonds
Lime, gin
Tried it
Wasn't really my binge
But I'm not a quitter so I dive in
Nine out of nine
Got the nails of a shy kid
Quiet but I chime in
Everybody lose
When the winners start wilin'
Out I'm in my tent
Pitched up in the night wind
Gravel underneath me
I can feel river flying
Living like a lion
King of lonely pilots
Call me when you hear the song
I've silently been typing
Tongue tied when
Everybody always lying
Funny like a tie in
Everybody lose
When the kid starts trying
Everybody lose
When the kid starts trying
Complacency and jealousy
That's hate you may not ever see
Wait a minute
Got me saying statements wrong
Messed up memories
Stinging like a pepper tree
Never bet on stepping me
Swinging through my flaws
just the ones all worth remembering
Stealing all the good lines
Comp yelling the referee
Perpetually a man who just can't
Seem to handle melody
I promise if you're wondering
The words were sold separately
Complacency and jealousy
That's hate you may not ever see
Wait a minute
Got me saying statements wrong
Messed up memories
Stinging like a pepper tree
Never bet on stepping me
Swinging through my flaws
Just the ones all worth remembering
Stealing all the good lines
Comp yelling the referee
Perpetually a man who just can't
Seem to handle melody
I promise if you're wondering
The words were sold separately
To what you're thinking while skipping rope
When I finish fixing up my shit
I'll find a cig to smoke
Imma be a classic like
