lyrics

I flopped the show tonight
couldn’t get my head on straight
still thought I could ace it
young hopes tricked by fate

Inner voice having me turnt up
on emotional insecticide
remember back when
I was facing crimson tides

It was repetitive
I always lacked the stuff imperative
I wanted it bad, but I
looked forward to feeling sad

like a heretic, sending the wrong messages
ate bad fruit, got the boot
now I'm wondering
where the merit is

Had to be sincere
let them know who is down
but the sassy voices told me
to remain low ground

I’ve already frowned
buried in empty stares
once friendly, went south
disrespected til next year

calling all cars, reclaimed my power
old enough to know
when the theories I create
turn sour

told I was a gem rare,
and then I got scared
got unloved and it hurts
broken odysseus living in fear


These triggers take me back

to when the love was stole

these triggers take me back

Heavy staring for your soul

Heavy staring for your soul



I got a buyer,
says his head's designer
"so fortunate to know you sir"
He's asking me to
lie for him

Got caught in the fire
flames walked in and transcribed it
I don't think we friends no more
so he took a hike

stress the gameplan
Don't leave it for the next man
reign in Mesopotamia
now you talking my land

Board with Tucan Sam
claim the seven seas
I light the room up lampless
Captain hook can't catch me

Love without trust
is like a river filled with rust
So be on your best behavior, boy
this voyage won't bust

Finding new ways to keep the time
On some introspective shit
ask me Beenie,
"who am I?"

I told you once
You're not invited to meet the fam yet
I open the door when it's time
So stop popping xanax

The ban wasn't lifted
I never said I ain't cold
This a heavy staring match
that could embargo the soul


These triggers take me back

to when the love was stole

These triggers take me back

Heavy staring for your soul

Heavy staring for your soul
