[Verse 1]
Memories of the kitchen in the back of mama’s cafe
Sweaty fingers long hair I’m dropping off the entree
Fifteen, all my friends abroad are prolly sleeping
Cannot wait to clock out and log into my Skype now
It’s 10 PM in Indo
Boutta talk to homies and I met ’em through the signals
I been on the internet since ten
I don’t mean the time, I mean my age
And that is how my little friendships would begin
Met one at twelve and his name was Pete
When my English was kinda off, he’d make fun of me

But then he’d teach me how to say it right after
Day after day I start to mirror all his manners
He was thirteen had a Call of Duty channel
Liked to smoke grass and would talk about his favorite rappers
Asked me who was mine and at the time, man, I ain’t had one yet
He said listen to Childish Gambino he dropped a project and so I did
Sat there as the 808s hit me
Never loved music but this one just really fit me
Then I met a girl that go by the name of Whitney
Yeah, we met on Vine I was fifteen at the time
She was seventeen and, boy, it was hard not to cross the line
Homeschooled kid nothing but titties on his mind
She was cool though turns out she was into me too so
We start to date
I cannot wait to meet you
The first person I could say I love you to then said it back
The opposite of my internet speed, we moving fast
Skype every single day
My brother in the room sick of hearing two children call each other lover names
My brother, five years older
Rebellious cat, yeah, he’s a cigarette smoker
Little brother Brian would complain about the odor
In reality I didn’t wanna see him smoking
He’s always the first one in my family to try things
He got tattoos, smoking, now he’s going clubbing

Daddy was upset and my mama’s unimpressed
Fights in the family would break and I was stressed
I was always honest with him, A.K.A. gave him s*it
Mama’s heart is looking fragile, so why you breaking it?
Man you tripping, I was just living
Parents had a higher standard ’cause they was religious
He’s getting tired of the lectures I was giving
One Friday night he told me I should come with him
(Just come to the club, pu*sy)
No, thanks, I don’t wanna drink, or smoke a sig
Or do no coc*ine or whatever y’all do, man

[Verse 2]
Truthfully my heart was beating fast
In my mind the club was scary and the hoes are shaking ass, but I was tempted
My brother wanted me to go, so he was not the only one that was rebelling
Then he stopped trying and he skrt off with his friendses
Then Whitney graduated, then she got accepted (Yay)
Red cups, red cups, kissing on the lens while she scheduling her classes
We were just some kids, man, we didn’t have the answers
Loving in the summer but what are we doing after, after?
Couple weeks out before the summer ends
Then she go to her dorm and get to moving in
Skip to the day that changed everything
She texted me and said that she’s been crying
And I asked her why but all I saw was Whitney’s still typing
Long paragraph I read that s*it in silence
She broke it off, broke it off
Our anniversary erased it from the calendars, big deal
I was feeling fine surprisingly
I told her if you feel this way then it’s just meant to be
Next day looking through her Snapchat
Nothing weird about it just checking where my ex at
All I saw was red cups, red cups
How she go and party just a day after the break up
Start to feel the water slowly falling out my tear ducts
Zoomed in every single fu*king face up in the pixels, I’m good

[Verse 3]
I’m at the cafe, we just closed down, lights out, tables flipped
Then I heard my phone sound, it’s Whitney
She texted, man, I wonder if she’ll try to patch s*it up or say she miss me
“Hey Brian, how you doing?
I just wanna talk about something that’s kind of stupid
I know that we broke up, but you’re still my best friend
I just wanna tell you something, that is why I’m texting, so”
She don’t even know where to start
I’m just texting back drives, feeling awkward as fu*k
Then she told me
“I was with my friends and we were drunk, so, um
Last night I went to a party and fu*ked someone”
Stop, stop, stop, stop, please
My stomach dropping fifty feet I feel like vomiting
Just a week ago you was my baby, didn’t you call me that?
Boutta to fly to Maryland and beat his ass and don’t hold me back
I didn’t say that
I tried my hardest not to give this b!tch a text back
I text my brother told him need to call me ASAP
I can’t believe this bulls*it
She caught a body first week of college and I haven’t even tasted no lips
I was fifteen
Always living life behind a screen but I got big dreams
Now I’m on a mission
My brother finally called me back like what is up?
I told him, b!tch, I wanna go and hit the club
He said, cool, get ready Imma pick you up
We in Jakarta give no fu*ks if I’m not old enough
Skrt-skrt, pulled up to the club
My brother lighting up a cig first
Went up to the bouncer slid a hunnid thou’ to enter
Walking in I feel the music thumping see these b!tches dry humping now, I’m feeling like a sinner
I’m taking shots after shots after shots
Even though there ain’t no red Solo cups
Uh, looking all around me hella, girls, it’s time to plot
I just wanna kiss somebody, I don’t wanna fu*k
Finally met this girl named Melanie
Pretty face and, boy, her chest is big, she got Yosemites
Looking like the one that really could fulfill my fantasy
She puffing on a stoge but I don’t mind I’m kinda into it
Then she grab my hand and start walking to the bar
I follow her, we put our drinks down and start kissing
I didn’t see no fireworks but I saw everything that I’ve been missing
Her lipstick was like strawberry and whiskey
Belligerent but I remembered it so vivid
My brother proud he saw me from a distance
That night the stars aligned and all the crowd was cheering
Don’t know what I woulda done if I stayed in the house
Our noses touching while her tongue is in my mouth
Now looking back and I’m just sitting here and laughing

[Verse 4]
Twenty-three feeling like I skipped a couple chapters
Finally made it to the US and met my friends that I used to call
When I was too scared to leave my nest
Whitney, to this day, I don’t know why you texted me what you did
If you listening I hope you know I’m not even pissed
‘Cause if you didn’t send that text I wouldn’t’ve gone out the club
And got my very first kiss, so thank you
You let me out my shell and I ain’t even met you
I hope one day we cross our paths in our adventures
And to my other friends up on the net
We don’t talk as much but I’d be down to reconnect
‘Cause when I was at home
Hopping on them Skype calls made me feel less alone
2 A.M Call of Duty
Thoughts of Pete hitting doobies
As I’m on the stage now holding my microphone
Y’all the reason I walked on that plane on my own
‘Cause back then you helped a boy feel like he belonged
And now his country loves it when singing these songs, telling these stories
Proving all of his opponents they wrong
Man, I been killing s*it so far since I was sixteen
And Imma just keep doing that extravagantly
Chasing all my dreams on my iPhone (IPhone)
Career is looking longer than some pythons (Pythons)
Now they waiting every time I fly home
Thanks to all my friends in different timezones
