lyrics

Ayo Shtumper, turn me up man

Left a message in a bottle
Saying I'm the one to follow
Rejected by Apollo
What a bitter to pill to swallow
Slyly grew my IG
Got a like from a model
Told all my homies
And it made me feel hollow
Lonely around people, social on my own
Tryna go global, hopeful for a home
Boastful that I'm mobile but I’m tired of my phone
Know the bills pile up, when you start to roam
Smoke and dust, cans I bust
Time for you to fuck with us
Climb is rough, in rhymes we trust
I'll never be the runner up
Bronze or gold, my soul is sold
Ride the tide, break the mold
Die inside if I fold
Summertime getting cold
Take a pull
Feeling full
I just want more
Lauryn Hill
Pop a pill
Settle that score
Me and goals
Man, we got great rapport
If I said then I meant it
Kick down the door

MIA I've been looking for you
Dreaming of things, we didn't do
Hoping that you made it
Spread your wings and flew
Let you go free
Cause deep down I knew
MIA I've been looking for you
Dreaming of things we didn't do
Hoping that you made it
Spread your wings and flew
Let you go free
Cause deep down I knew

They just read my message
Stopped after a sentence
We a generation
That ain't got no attention
Grew up in recession
Fantasy reflectin'
A vanity direction
I know it's a projection
Can I get a mention?
Speed up my ascension
All I really want is success, no concession
Can I get a mansion?
With some woman dancing
Couple million views
Even more reactions
Surpassing all my classmates
I’m following my passion
Nowitzki when I'm spitting, never miss I'm a maverick
Smoking mad Cubans cause I've always been an addict
(Smoking mad Cubans, cause you always been an addict)
Feeling so fantastic, never went scholastic
Eyeing a new gadget, God I gotta have it
Verse is all elastic, I just went and snapped it
Words are all magic, make insane happen

Big heart, often breaks
Big dreams, I call fate
Down bad, made mistakes
Turn around hope life gets great
Big heart, often breaks
Big dreams, I call fate
Down bad, made mistakes
Turn around watch life get great

I always knew
l always knew
I always knew
You did too
(Yeah just like that)
I always knew
l always knew
I always knew
You did too

MIA I've been looking for you
Dreaming of things, we didn't do
Hoping that you made it
Spread your wings and flew
Let you go free
Cause deep down I knew
MIA I've been looking for you
Dreaming of things we didn't do
Hoping that you made it
Spread your wings and flew
Let you go free
Cause deep down I knew
