Boil water for my French press
Light an L to alleviate the head stress
My emotions roll over like the head rest
On the plane I connected under sunsets
Start a rhyme for the time I got nothing left
Moms screaming, time's beaming
Gotta make the best
Out this holiday weekend, what a success
I’m not high this evening, what an upset
Which flight will get me lifted
Where the sun rest?
Time zones, don't know if she up yet
Google drone, Metro phone, what's the subset?
Finding out on your location
What is obsessed?
I’m just kidding for the moment
Maybe not yet
Steady chasing your reflection
So eternal yet
She was mountainous like Denver
It's cold inside this rental
Oh, how you would November
Hug me tighter in the winter
Sweater sessions, touching linen
Fire burning on your shoulder, you remember
That our life is all worth living
Even in times of forgiveness
It hurts to be so cold
Seeing you warm within December
Without your favorite nigga
Bob could probably paint the pictures
Flowers on your windows
Because you're my favorite art
You're my canvas, you're my heart
On this tablet I forgot
All this love from the start
Has got me thinking of this
Since we are apart hey
Never (Never) , ahh (Never)
Never (Never) have I met someone like you, ahh
Never (Never) , ahh (Never)
Never (Never) have I met someone like you, ahh
Let's get this poppin', fam
I'm ready for the world tour
Showed me two options so I had
To take the third door
Had to take some time to
Analyze what really hurts more
Vacant from the nine to five or
Being poor and goin’ for it
Some say I’ll be without
But time is all we really have
Walkin' round
Hazy vision living in a time lapse
We were never meant for that, I admire mama
Spent her life
So my environment’s conducive to aspiring
She's ironclad
When life strikes, she fires back
Resilient despite my dad's absence, oh
I admire that
I got my CDs, my tees and my flyers packed
This is for my young lads and
Those who love my prior acts
Lump me with the 2010 kids who
Rap sad and act cathartic
Middle class aggression once expressed
Through wack guitar riffs
Too profound, leave a passerby so astounded
Why this kid lost his shit in
The parking lot of Target?
Man, it's deeper than that
And this ain’t for the niggas
Who would tweet before act
This is for my people out of reach of relief
Can't speak so they rap
For the tongue tied young minds
Out seekin' a gat
Holdin' on to they sanity while
We preachin' our sentiments
Of lovin' humanity while they
Can't see the evidence
Been through the ringer of
Self doubt and depression
It ain't a preference, I hope they hear me
'cause I'll be here tellin' them that
Never (Never) , ahh (Never)
Never (Never) have I met someone like you, ahh
Never (Never) , ahh (Never)
Never (Never) have I met someone like you, ahh
Turbulence (Turbulence)
Is more than mere disturbances
Helps you learn to yearn for life
To reassess your worth and shit
Keep it in (Balance)
Try to have a (Good time)
Treat yourself and seek some help
(And you'll be just fine)
Turbulence (Turbulence)
Is more than mere disturbances
Helps you learn to yearn for life
To reassess your worth and shit
Keep it in (Balance)
Try to have a (Good time)
Don't forget to be yourself
(And you'll be just fine)
I'll be just fine

Go ahead, eat your death
Lick your lips, see what fruit bears
It's your mouth, it's your throat, it's your belly
What's it to me, you seem happy
To blindly toss those apple seeds
Of vile discourse, the flit and the spit and the bile, all the while


It serves you right, it serves you right
Take your clothes off by the hearthside, then join me bedside
Where the houses are eating their owners
Yeah, it serves you right, it serves you right
‘Cause God forbid you ever let me inside, or there within
Heaven forbid you show your underbelly


So go ahead, hold your breath
Be my guest, see if I care
‘Cause it's your life, it's your body in the morning
What's it to you, my sweet bijou
‘Cause if you knew what was good for you
You'd stand there lowborn to drop every rampart and drawbridge
So save your breath for cooling your tea and your porridge


So help yourself, it's okay
‘Cause if it gets you through the night
Well then hey, hey, it's your night, and that's your right, it ain't my business
Red vein your nose with cheap cologne
And let's slither out of these filthy clothes
And dust you off, send you off, get you breathing


And I don't wear my safety belt
And I don't watch my ass when I'm by myself
I sleep like a baby with candles burning
And I skip down dark alley lots
And I don't look both ways before I cross the street
Or my heart or my fingers and my fingers say


It serves you right, it serves you right
‘Cause if it makes you feel a tiny bit warmer, reside by the torch light
With the outright crass indistinction
And it serves you right, it serves you right
‘Cause god forbid you ever let me inside or there within
Heaven forbid you give a good god good evening


So go ahead, hold your breath
Be my guest, see if I care
‘Cause it's your life, it's your face in the place of the mirror
And here's to you, merci beaucoup
But wait 'til I get my hands on you
That's all you will get – a bear hug from your armless brother
So save your teeth for the toothy grins to your mother

And no matter who you are, it's out there and it's gonna getcha


Yeah, go ahead, please yourself
Wring your hands, throttle best-laid plans
They're alive, they're a bishop, a loose leaf, a bottle
I come to hear my neighbors' thoughts
So I will saunter down this hallway dark
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive, God willing, I'm alive


I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

...That's scary, you don't know what the unseen is, what that little feeling is, something behind you is.​
