Sometimes I think that I should be a man
Have some patience, move without a plan
Go day by day, the clock is ticking
They don't understand
What's in my head, don't wanna see it
Come take a trip behind my eyes
Probably won't believe it
Turn the lights on

Keep looking up, keep flying high
Before the time's gone
I've done too little
Tried to justify my right wrongs
Can barely rest now
Staying up all night long
'Til I listen to the tick tock stop
And then I dive bomb, so

Somebody pull me out from under the water
I been swimming looking for death
I thought I finally caught her
Even offered up my last breath
I thought for sure that I bought her
Then she asked for change of a hundred
All I had was a quarter, shit
Coming up short
I guess I missed out
Feet behind the line
Can't hit my shot, so I just dish out
Then I sit out
Watch the world revolve as I just spin out
Seems like we really in some shit now, yeah

I been thinking 'bout this for a minute
This time around I guess I grew a pair and finally did it
I hope I didn't fuck it up
This time may be the only
I'm worried I won't even show this to the homies

I ain't lonely but my head space cold
Could’ve let it out on the story but that shit gets old
Last thing I need is a message from a friend back home
Saying "what's up" or "how you been"
I'll say "it's all good bro", nah

Ain't tryna let it all out
Not to someone who cares just so they can figure me out
I'd rather walk up the stairs after I lock up the house
And take a seat in the attic
Try and find a simpler route
Damn
Now I guess this shit is getting dark
If this about me, I don't even know where to start
I can tell you some stories and ask you what's your favorite part?
But if you come with the wrong answer I may take it to heart, yeah

Always asking shit I know the answer to
Like when you send that text and she don't answer you
She hit you back a week later like "what you tryna do?"
Been down up on your ass and suddenly in a dancing mood, nah

Another hit but it won't last forever
On your way back down
You thinking now or never
Go to make that move and then you lock up
Stock up on emotions just so you can shoot the clock up

Can't put the pieces back the damage is done
Wish you could travel back in time to have a little more fun
But you waited
'Cause they say patience is a virtue
But even good things in excess can really hurt you

Could really hurt you, yeah
Go

And I’m caught in the middle of fuck you and let's be friends
Throw you a floatie or toss you into the deep end
Kick you out the house or maybe keep you for the weekend
We can
Delete and try to resend
You get the message
I'm here to tell you a story
'Bout someone who wakes up at 5 a.m. and starts to worry
'Bout someone who been tryna practice patience in a hurry
Going cold turkey, in a scurry of flurries
I'm sure he, sure he been

Contemplating cutting it off
Don't let them see inside though
Don't let it get soft
Don't let them see you cry now
You gotta be tough
Seems like the stakes are getting high now
So all bets are off, yeah

And this time I'm going no holds barred
Lay it all out on the table, you can see from afar
Wasn't dealt the worst hand
But sometimes shit gets hard
Decide to keep it to yourself
So no one knows who you are, yeah

Say you could be a joker or an ace of spades
Open up your closet
Put a different suit on everyday
Checking every pocket of your bluest jeans
They start to fade away
Then that shit gets fuzzy

Come to think about it man that shit's so funny
We all looking for change, but confuse it with money
Wish away the rain but hate when we get nothing
And hope for brighter days but throwing shade when it gets sunny

And I been hoping I can be a better person myself
Maybe snag a ride to heaven 'stead of going to hell
Take a trip to seven eleven to see what they sell
But I won't play the lottery because I'm doing so well, yeah
