Ms. Boulevard

I was 18 you daydreamed I'd be a star
Making flights out to Hollywood, she my boulevard
You was always getting wasted on the forty-five
But we was right then and right there you couldn't lie

You couldn't lie
You couldn't lie

Remember nights at the tel', we're in the boulevard
Kept me safe and bright, you were my shining star
After eighteen years now, it's time to fly
Kept it crystal and hazy, now I'm surfing high
Wrecking havoc in grades like it's a nine to five
Man I made some great friends, and I can't say goodbye
Now I'm drifting and gliding on the sixty-five
Got my eyes on the sunset, life is passing by

I will follow
Wherever you are
And I'll fall in

I was 18 you daydreamed I'd be a star
Making flights out to Hollywood, she my boulevard
You was always getting wasted on the forty-five
But we was right then and right there you couldn't lie
We'll fly away, go out to Florida
My baby hates when I ignore her
All night long, my hearts in your city
I need you riding with me
I know these times ain't pretty to ya

Way back when we were on my couch
I was choking up tryna get words out
I had found what it meant to be someone else
And I can't apologize dawg that's just how I felt
And I can't control what my sister says on the internet but
I can face all I am, and I ain't ready yet.
It was hot outside, popsicles, sun rays
I had my shit together man, those were the old days
Back when Romil was teaching me the basics
Small kid, big dreams, meant for chasing
I looked like Jim Carrey, but a little dumber
Then my life changed, by the end of summer
But It's inside my blood, I can't escape it
My dreams grow bigger, and all y'all do is keep takin
Was it something I said? Did I make you impatient?
Like that time when you was in, or was it lost in conversation?
Like man I almost lost my brother, I can't spare you minutes
And when your world comes crumbling down that's how you know you feel it
I was missing something deeper, had to find my spirit
I'd take my life for you dawg, back then I'd really seen it
And when you needed place to stay, who was there to help?
I gave it all just for nothing, just so I could help
So I'm saying fuck you to the world, I'll do it all myself
And this time I'll mean it, and I'll see you in hell

Making my way down
Keeping my family real close
New boots got steel toes
New car but the same roads
That's just how I'm feeling
Don't give me the reasons
Got stars all on my ceiling
Making my way down
Keeping my family real close
New boots got steel toes
New car but the same roads
That's just how I'm feeling
Don't give me the reasons
I change like the seasons

I was 18 you daydreamed I'd be a star
Making flights out to Hollywood, she my boulevard
You was always getting wasted on the forty-five
But we was right then and right there you couldn't lie
We'll fly away, go out to Florida
My baby hates when I ignore her
All night long, my hearts in your city
I need you riding with me
I know these times ain't pretty to ya

I was 18 you daydreamed I'd be a star
Making flights out to Hollywood, she my boulevard
You was always getting wasted on the forty-five
But we was right then and right there you couldn't lie

Wasted on the forty-five
Wa-wasted on the forty-five
Wasted on the-
Wasted on the forty-five
Wa-wasted on the forty-five
Wasted on the-

Sometime soon, I'll find out
One day you won't be 'round
I know we'll make it through
I'll be there right with you

I was 18 you daydreamed I'd be a star
Making flights out to Hollywood, she my boulevard
You was always getting wasted on the forty-five
But we was right then and right there you couldn't lie
