This is a song I wrote at a point of time when I wasn't feeling like the recognition or message was getting through in my music. The idea was to put an undertone of uncertainty in the lyrics and to rap them over a beat that sounds like it would have the most confident message over it. Milo hooked it up with the beat and it fit the concept perfectly. LES735 Bodied the intro with cuts, and Hey You was born.
lyrics
Too much planet x and sex rap
the records leave your neck snapped
lookin at the globe saying we need to take a step back
I'm writing letters knowin no ones gonna write back
its like tryin to fuck a woman when she doesn't see you like that
pastor please tell me I'm on the right path
I know I want a wife but I also want a nightcap
and when they're in my lap l only wanna bite back
my girlfriend that week never ever seems to like that
last lap of the final frontier, when drinks disappear
you can see the smoke clear
and the people drift out to the places that they came from
in a thousand lost souls all whispering the same song
people with smiles tend to do the opposite
a dude with a dimepiece only wants a hotter chick
broke ass Mouse is in love with the Prada chicks
the world keeps spinning I think I'm getting lost in it
