Quiet Kid
Only love will save you this time
And nobody can help you
Hopelessly fightin' to escape your mind
In this foreign land where loneliness can keep you
Look, I'm in the sky but I can't look down
How can I smile when they can't see in?
I wanna ride but I can't look 'round 'cause I still see spirits I hide within
And my bro don't lack, he's a violent king
Got my gang like a bridal ring
Bro's, yeah, they kept me alive when I stepped to a knife
Better think 'bout the brighter things
I don't care 'bout them but they care 'bout me
They ask me, "Frenchie, you write so clean"
Nine double-M put my mind at peace
Yeah, she sucked my soul on designer sheets
Business plan and a final speech
Then I'm back down on a suicidal creek
I don't do fake friends that don't chase their dreams
We're just products of losin' sleep
Shit, you have never felt this loss
PTSD got my mind on lock
Held two dead bodies, I'm fightin' non-stop
But I can't take meds if they over drop
I guess it made me a man
Now I don't step on the brake, ain't catchin' a case, got a drop and a transit van, look
I really put time in this, put crime in this, put my life on this
Jumped off a plane from France
Took risks and a chance 'cause I really relied on this
Now I got crowds in the dance and my pay's in advance
Was always the quiet kid
Now I got crowds in the dance and my pay's in advance
Was always the quiet kid
Only love will save you this time
And nobody can help you
Hopelessly fightin' to escape your mind
In this foreign land where loneliness can keep you
Yeah, look
Yeah, I step in the stars and I'm feelin'
I could be the reason you put on a song and relate
You'd think I was dead how I walk with a zombie
Infectin' my brothers estate
My gang in the club gettin' sturdy, I'm drinkin', I'm thirsty, the bottles are flyin' away
Chill with the boss, sit with the mob, I'm a mile away
Let's ride 'til we can't come back
Out in the sticks so we can't return
I just died of a heart attack
No symptoms, if you felt all that burn there's a blade in my starter pack
How you blow so quick? Take a seat and learn
Fuck blades, would rather tap
Down the window in the car then up
Only love will save you this time
And nobody can help you
Hopelessly fightin' to escape your mind
In this foreign land where loneliness can keep you
