Rooftops

Stay off of the rooftops
Don't you make no sound
Keep your head out the clouds
Don't go, baby slow it all down
With your toes on the ground
I been on my own for so long now
Can't nobody tell me what's right
On top of the rooftops

I had a one way ticket to heaven
But I fell asleep and I missed my connection
I got a lotta miles on road but it wasn't enough
Life started when I really stopped giving a fuck

Let's take it back to blowing the cartridge on a frozen screen
Just a couple vocal teens and hoping we could stumble on some dopamine
The only need was finding ways to run up the score
I don't care about no other games because I won 'em before

And this is nothing like they told me 'bout
When I was on that broken couch
Yelling from the roof and now they telling me to close my mouth
But none of my idols played it safe
And didn't listen when people would say

Darling take your time
There's another day
You could do things right
There's another way
I'ma scream it from the penthouse 'til they can't say

Stay off of the rooftops
Don't you make no sound
Keep your head out the clouds
Don't go, baby, slow it all down
With your toes on the ground
I been on my own for so long now
Can't nobody tell what's right
On top of the rooftops

Don't make a sound

Used to get the hate and the doubt now I'm on one
Shawty see I'm gaining some clout, I'm a problem
What you all complaining about? Made it rain from a drought now I'm out, woah
Breaking through the ceiling popping bottles on the roof
Sorry, did I hurt your feelings? All I'm talking is the truth
Then they never make a shot while I hit the alley-oop
I won't spend any time 'less you coming with the loot

Way up, loving how the city lights glow
Won't chase her if she ever acting like a hoe
Want pay stubs looking like the number to my phone
No favors if you weren't supporting me before
And I took a flight to Chi town, got me vibing right now
Joey turning up the beat, we won't ever pipe down
I'm just living life now, biggest thing in my town
Now we're going worldwide 'cause they fuck with my sound

And you don't have to think I'm doing it right
Wake up late 'cause I've been working all night
Ray Bans on with my future so bright
And the ones I don't like

Stay off of the rooftops
Don't you make no sound
Keep your head out the clouds
Don't go, baby, slow it all down
With your toes on the ground
I been on my own for so long now
Can't nobody tell what's right
On top of the rooftops

Don't make a sound
