lyrics

Skittle me this sweet taste the rainbow/ on my night grind light switch so day glo/ sip that jd till the day just fade slow/ a sway in my step and my eyes they stay low/ my steelo so cee-lo green/ maybe I’m crazy but fuck you my steezo mean/ I say things then my friends like he don’t mean/ but I’m on that truth serum you can tell by the lean/
I lean wit em and rock wit my hop hip to the drop rhythm/ the object is to shots till I’m not with em/
I’m dancing by myself/ my idol mighty you can worship put your mouth right by the belt/ I shoot from the hip/ just the tip then that ice burg melt/ no survivors the divers dealt they were swallowed by the swell/ loose lips sink ships but these secrets tight/ buzzin like neon till that vampire bites/ nocturnal journal burn at churn of the pen/ grab the page by the pressure point give my time the bends/ spend minutes like money like I got it to burn/ alarms ring like class bells but will I ever learn/

City lights some lost some found/ midnight train we headed uptown/ shadows up late we play to the crowd/ quiet on the set we living out loud/
Lookin for some action/ sweet satisfaction/ we aint goin home tonight/ we aint goin home tonight

Sensation chasin mixed thoughts on the basement/ haunted by relics in urgent need of a venkman/ memories due for purge but too afraid to replace them/ dreams come in darkness will the light of day erase em/ color splash a brilliant coney island sunrise/ a new day breath of fresh air open my eyes/ polaroid lenses with big picture questions/ instant cue view got me feeling young and restless/ controlled by chaos with a faith in practicality/ one is a given the other seems to be a fallacy/ all our lives we hold the lies in our heart/ truth in comedy disguised as drama things fall apart/ nobody told me I could put the book down/ rewrite the skyline plenty stories in this town/ outside sources providing my anxiety/ cuz I’m the me I am now before I try to be the me that I’ma try to be/ and Ima be a great me/ but you couldn’t tell that from the me I’ve been lately/ Ive been killing time avoiding my own myth/ please consider this my notice this will be my last shift.
breakfast club stuck in detention with the have nots/ money with short laces always rockin a half knot/ I seen dude with a double yeah that got me in trouble/ had me after stacks and a snatch with a bubble/ now I’m feelin like I just made bail/ got a pocket full of dreams cop my own presale/ doing wide screen things/desire lightspeed wings but there’s no need to zoom only fools rush in/ no regrets the sunset is beautiful/ I was the architect respect the plot at my funeral / f the brackets I found my life in the dash/ photographs moments captured and then gone with the flash/ I lost myself in the who they said I’m supposed to be/ on the hook holdin my breath now it’s catch and release/night falls and the city comes alive/ the stars hide from sight they cant match our shine/ forever is now so I’m getting back to it/ I’ll be present till the day they relate to me as truant/ please excuse my absence from the daily routine/ I’m puttin the struggle to rest and I’m living the dream
