[Verse 1: Connis]
Hospital bracelets, rip ‘em off hop in a spaceship
100 miles per hour going back to the basics
Sell the crib now my neighbors don’t even know their neighbors
Momma moved to a 1-bedroom, need something spacious
Thinking back on my life the greater portion was anxious
But on the brink of greatness, swear that I could taste it
Couple family curses, swear that I could break ‘em
Couldn’t relive that anger like I don’t know where that pain went
But it all comes back when you turn your back
And you face your past, you could find your peacе it’ll chain react
I’mma hold you down, I’mma spot that bread don’t pay me back
Just keep somе good intentions, hold onto your friendships
Keep your people bossed up, keep track of your blessings
I don’t wan’ be washed up fighting my depression
20-something stressing over all these different questions
Woke up feeling restless
Cause I seen one too many people fall victim to hard times
And one too many people that followed the wrong signs
Regardless of this ills I promise it’s alright
I’ll father another me and I’ll give ‘em the guidelines
[Chorus: Connis & Salem]
Make your money but don’t let it make you
Going deeper in yourself, there ain’t a thing you can’t do
Cause we all get lost sometimes, you gon’ find your way in no time
Yeah, we all get lost sometimes, you gon’ find your way back
[Bridge: Connis]
I feel so detached anytime I get a grasp
My soul older than my age, my cry louder than my laugh
My heart bigger than you thought I just pulled up on my pops
We be posted on his porch smoking cigarettes at dark
Took a shot right out the bottle felt it trickle to my heart
We not the same but we ain’t different — I understand who you are
I got caught in the rain I didn’t plan it at all
Guess I’ll wash away my sins for the fall when summers gone
[Verse 2: Latrell James]
And the winter comes, the ol’ swinging pendulum
Nodded off in curriculums daydreaming ‘bout Benjamin’s
Momma need insulin, instead I ran to the instruments
Thinking I can fix it if I stuck out like peninsular
Insecure with my feelings, hardly show emotion
I’d prolly feel whole lot better if I tried to be open
Shoulda seen my grandmother way more times before COVID
Hindsight can be torture also ‘aha’ moment and here it goes
Almost folded before I drew my hand and you ain’t even know it
It wasn’t money know the difference in being broke and broken
Roll up and hit the homies the only way I be coping
Spent my life in Massachusetts and barely done seen the ocean
I was locked in studio sessions hoping someone would notice
Hit the stage and then the basement it’s such a humbling moment
I was down bad, but I was told never to show it
Now I’m wishing that I did, wouldn’t end up how it is
[Chorus: Connis & Salem]
Make your money but don’t let it make you
Going deeper in yourself, there ain’t a thing you can’t do
Cause we all get lost sometimes, you gon’ find your way in no time
Yeah, we all get lost sometimes, you gon’ find your way back
Hospital bracelets, rip ‘em off hop in a spaceship
100 miles per hour going back to the basics
