lyrics

Told my momma I was gonna be a rapper
Make the type of music that you name your child after
I was the kid that was waiting on the rapture
like if it's gonna fall let me finish on this chapter
Grew up on the right side across the wrong tracks
There's moments in your life that you delete from your past,
But me I'm looking back and I can't even try to act like this the first time that I ever saw a hash pipe
Quit smoking it gave me anxiety
Really I just got tired of buying weed
I'm breathing easy finally
If I can be whatever I wanna be it's about time I start being me
My Christmas lights are on my crib 24/7
Every amp that I own goes up to 11
Me I think the dive bar smells like heaven
So chances are I'll be looking for excederine
You that neighbor who gets loud when he drinks?
You know that dude throwing up in your sink?
You know that kid on your block who should've been an astronaut but would rather spend his whole life on a beat?
Well that's me. I'm going in.
If got money to lend give it here
She grins when my notes get to bending her ear
And me I think it's time that we stop starting over and start smiling
Happy endings are here.

We don't all get to be what we want but when you breathe a little easier it's easier to want less.

Alright living under starlight
They got the loot. We got the bar tonight.
Y'all came here to party right?
Put your hands in the sky it'll be alright.
