I’ve found out that i talk on a loop
Repeating the same things over again
And i don’t like my voice
But who does?
And really
I hate to complain
But there’s just one more thing
I have to explain
But you wouldn’t get it
No i’m sure you wouldn’t understand
This verse is taking too long
I’m not sure where the chorus is
Here it comes
(chorus)
I don’t talk too much
Do i talk too much?
Can I talk too much?
Should I talk too much?
I wish i could improvise
The way that brian eno does
Just make up words and have them sound good
Instead of my clunky poetry
Instead ill try to have some faith
In my own lyrics
Cause lack of confidence tends to
Shine through like a beacon
And now i’ll just wait for the chorus and solo
To take us out
(chorus)

kids never grow up but you know that's when we roll up
dropping bars motorola
at the parties never sober
and we party like it's over
but that's my mindset
so i'm in the corner with a cream soda
but prison never ends
posted up forever
for you and your friends
and the rest of the world to see
i don't wanna be here
yeah
man that shit is so sad
don't know where we going
don't even know where we at
matter of fact this not a rap
this a message
for the young kid living so reckless
silver necklace round his neck
low key with the flexing
but when he pulls up in the tesla
with a scar right next to him
but those aren't really his friends
who is he to them?
who are you to say who we are?
social media addicted girl in the back of the car
man that's sad
but we all just living with no vision
i think i have something
or i have one where everyone just wanna have fun
so i'm solo like a limbo
and we lost can't find the way
please send the info
please send the info

Once again don’t know what to say
To “how do you feel today”
Just have to keep doing this
For evermore
Feel nauseous as i write this down
This is no good
‘Its okay, ill just add reverb”
To cover up these awful words
a lot of "yeah"s
And its okay that i don’t know how
And i don’t mind
I’ll just sit here alone
And waste my time
And i cant talk to you
Its okay
So I just say
a lot of "yeah"s again
