lyrics

(verse 1)
i gotta wake up
i gotta be out in town
i gotta get stuff
i gotta fill up my house
i got em at once
i gotta go cancel trials
i gotta have lunch
i gotta let friendships down
i gotta erupt
i gotta continue (smiles)
i gotta show love
i gotta give daps and flowers
i gotta feel judged
i gotta dread every hour
(i got it, enough)
i gotta switch up the style

but how(?) without
a modicum of denial
abrupt hiccups
to process a lung that drowned
no not this son
the prodigal lost then found
I am
honored to (lose then find)
(putting the proof inside
pudding and (you) decide)
taste test
you can chew it (to choose a side)
stupid as stupid tries
doing is (do or die)
existence
(gotta wanna get through this life )

(chorus)x2
(they) said it - seems so simple
to keep on schedule
with feet on tempo
(but) what it - means? I don't know
when streets are forked roads
increased by tenfold
(why) can't it? - be so simple
to meet in middles
let each get their own
(end) to a - means I don't know
(we breath in normal
then breath out no more )

(verse 2)
i wanna stay in bed
i wanna just wonder (roads)
i want (my favorites)
i wanna (feel comfortable)
(i was impatient )
(i wanna confront the toll )
i want a steak frites
i wanna pick up the phone
(i wanna make sense
i wanna laugh at the joke
i want (unsafe sex)
i wanna collab with folk
i wanna break bread
i wanna propose a toast
i wanna say thanks
i wanna reach out to those )

who allowed this child
to paint on the walls the he liked
punch drunk sessions
with trauma to train the mind
a troubadour tripped out
to speak on the songs he writes
I am
honored to use the rhyme
putting the proof inside
records so you can vibe
mic check
wanna do it for dues and dimes
stupid as stupid tries
doing is do or die
existing!
gotta wanna get through this life
