[Intro: Miles Chancellor]
Hi, Manny
Tonight one of them nights
I need for me
I been pouring into the wrong things
Might as well pour me a drink
[Chorus: Miles Chancellor]
Drowning
Drowning in all of my thoughts and emotions
And all the nuances
I'm picking up on them
Won't pick up my phone
Tonight I need for me
I was there every other time they needed me
Burning the candle
Both ends
I woke up
And I burned the blunt at the wrong end
I know this fin' be a long night
Time don't exist, so it won't end
Made a song about one of my old flames
We got closer when I had her open
I'm not alone, I'm a loner
I'm not a romantic, it's hopeless
[Verse 1: Miles Chancellor]
I got some goals that need planning
And then once I plan them
They can't leave my focus
Talk to Manny
He know how it feel
That's why that's really my brudda
We identify with each other
Driven by the love of our mothers
Me and Brodie
We got in a huddle
Me and Brodie
We got the same hustle
Anything that we got off the strength it's 'cause niggas knew that we got it from the muscle
I be hearing the rumbles
Time to make 'em Arthur they knuckles
I been had a chip on my shoulder
No wonder some feathers got ruffled
No wonder I'm back in my duffle
I cannot be modest or subtle
They often mistake that for humble
I'm the best
Ain't no stutter or mumble
Elephant in the room, I go dumbo
My vision is bridges and tunnels
My stories been building from rubble
'Til my floor don't got nothing above it
[Chorus: Miles Chancellor]
Drowning
Drowning in all of my thoughts and emotions
And all the nuances
I'm picking up on them
Won't pick up my phone
Tonight I need for me
I was there every other time they needed me
Burning the candle
Both ends
I woke up
And I burned the blunt at the wrong end
I know this fin' be a long night
Time don't exist, so it won't end
Made a song about one of my old flames
We got closer when I had her open
I'm not alone, I'm a loner
I'm not a romantic, it's hopeless
[Verse 2: Miles Chancellor]
Tryna drown out all the voice in my head
The people in my ear
So I can differentiate between them
I'm not explaining myself no more
I tell them niggas
I got my reasons
Some people around for a reason, a season
Same damn time
Shawty a blessing, a lesson
The last time I
Feel like I ain't learn my lesson
I mastered self-sabotage
I'm the best at it
Pushing away people that want what's best for me
Or the best version of me
But that shit subjective
To know that, you would have to know my objective
And to know that is to feel all the pressure
Of people that use you for stepping stones
Vessels, credentials
They think they Jerry
Lorenzo, they think they essentials
Came face to face with that nigga
Was almost my killer
Shit get spooky for real
I was standing in the mirror
I was parked up with some pills
Got there with reckless steering
Turned my location off
Ain't want nobody near me
I ain't been tryna let nobody down
Either seems like you going to clearly
That's why this Spook shit is deeper than rap
I had to make me some food for my spirit
Stop worrying 'bout who want this, who want that
Matter fact, this is exactly how I'm carrying
[Outro: Miles Chancellor]
Tonight one of them nights
I need for me
Drowning in all of my thoughts and emotions
