[Intro]
(You did good, )
Oh, woah (It’s a smash)
Oh, woah (Sorry, lonely boy)

[Verse 1]
I been going through some changes, searching, looking for the truth (Let’s go)
Gotta be God working through me, I’m doing s*it I couldn’t do (On God)
Saying s*it I couldn’t say (On God), money come, give it away
Know we all headed to the grave, I’m just tryna go a different way
Think mama popped one too many, can’t understand what she texting (Ooh)
Break my heart when I read the comments, some fans thinking I left them
But they don’t know, even as I glow, I’m still fighting depression
I was told either grow or die, now tryna live my obsession
Still quеstioning if I do enough
Insecure, can’t stand to hеar my own voice unless I tune it up
At this point, it’d be quicker to name who ain’t suing us (Who ain’t?)
Their bad days are my bad days, they got the nerve to tell me, “Boy, loosen up” (Shut the fu*k up)
Fu*k (Shut up), every song made out of self doubt (Self doubt)
More confused that I’m on the stage, people listen like I got it figured out (Let’s go)
Feeling homeless with the biggest house (Let’s go)
Spit the pain poets written ’bout (Let’s go)
Getting money that I dreamt about (Let’s go)
Love come with interest, they just lenders now (Let’s go)
Damn, advice coming from my father in law
Telling me to put my armor on
The evil coming the more you talk ’bout God
Damn, Lord, I’m praying that you give me strength
I’m not worthy to come through the gates
Take for granted every breath I take

[Bridge]
Uh-huh, Lord, I pray you give me peace of mind, huh (Lord, I pray)
But right now, I’m on demon time, huh (Right now, I’m on demon time)
Uh-huh, Lord, I pray you give me peace of mind, huh (Lord, I pray)
But right now, I’m on demon time, huh

[Verse 2]
Choppa on me, yeah, yeah, yeah
Bodies dropping, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mamas sobbing, yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, uh-huh
Baller blocking, yeah, yeah, yeah
Scheming, plotting, yeah, yeah, yeah
Time to lock in, yeah, yeah, yeah
Lonely boy, I’m going Steve Jones (Steve Jones)
Lonely boy, blacked out all chrome (All chrome)
Lonely boy like my friends gone (Turn me up)
Fu*k a b!tch, hoes get friend zoned, yeah
Hearse boy, getting my dead on (Brrt)
‘Bout time I get right, I’m dead wrong, yeah
Loose screws no getting my head on, yeah, yeah (What?)
Popped a Perc’, I thought it was an Advil (Turn me up)
AK ripping s*it up like a tantrum
Undisputed, Usyk Alexander, huh, ayy
Pop out just to let ’em take a gander (Ah)
Young cracker, brothers call me phantom (Ha)
Unc’ balling like I’m Adam Sandler (Yeah, sheesh)
Bought a Lamb’ to let my brother flaunt it
Pupils pinned, my body screaming haunted
Turn the fu*k up when I get exhausted, huh, uh-huh (Turn me up, turn me up)
They couldn’t afford what the fu*k it cost me (Ha)
Family crying ’cause they know they lost me
Pieces of me die with every coffin, woah
So fu*k it, everybody ’bout to get hit
Fu*k it, everybody die, die, die (Die, die, die)
Going out like Cooper, I’m going interstellar
We past getting high, high, high (High, high, high)
Runaway boy, bye, bye, bye (Bye, bye)
Another day more lie, lie, lies (Lie, lie)
Motherfu*k these demons, I’m sticking my tongue out like ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

[Bridge]
All I have is nightmares, nightmares, nightmares
All I have is nightmares, nightmares, nightmares
All I have is nightmares, nightmares, nightmares
All I have is nightmares, nightmares, nightmares

[Verse 3]
Body feeling fu*ked up, b!tch, I might just die
Cross tatted on my face, devil still up in my eyes
Broke out the asylum, popping pills until I’m unalived
Baby cut the fu*king lights off, don’t want you to see me cry
Don’t want you to view me different, demons tryna break my spirit
All them voices, you don’t hear it? I can’t let ’em know I fear it
I can’t let ’em know I’m scared, I can’t show ’em that I care
Product of that trauma when you grow up with nobody there
Think I’m losing it, think I’m losing it
Picking up my cross like how the fu*k was Jesus moving this?
Think I’m losing it, think I’m losing it
If I don’t pop these pills my brain won’t stop until I’m shooting it

[Outro]
You know, I remember digging like a hole in my backyard
I was gonna go to China, you know? I was gonna run away to China
Just digging this hole, I think I gave up like eight feet down
Put some cardboard on top, it made a cool fort, but, uh
You know, I remember like getting my first Huffy bike
I had this neon green Huffy bike
And I remember, like, being like maybe 11 and
Maybe even younger than that, just taking off
You know just, just, just taking off and
There used to be this laundromat down the street, it was far and I used to just take off, I remember being like 10, 11 and
Being on my bike, I felt like I could go anywhere, you know
Didn’t matter what was going on, I could just fu*king take off
And then, uh, I remember climbing rooftops and, like jumping on other peoples roofs and stuff like that, you know?
