Lyrics

i’ve been— growin’ too long, hair’s at the end of it’s fading valent ro—oo—ope

lately I’ve been — feelin’ strong, locked myself away to work on what I know

But there’s still a pain (still a pain) oscillating through the games that I’v been playing all this time

27 projects finished up and filed away that haven’t earned a dime (no not a dime)

at least not yet— (not yet, not yet)

but why I gotta take out mortgages to just go out and live my fuckin’ life?

cause’ I’m feelin’ this inflation ain’t gone end in our elation

momma I swear, I’m trying to do it right... my life feels like...

Chorus

... bamboo growin’ underground over all the years—ars

and now I’m tryna keep my head above water to see if it’s worth the tears (worth the tears)

my life’s like bamboo growin’ undergrown over all the years—

and i’m burning down my sanity, just for light to repel my fuckin’ fears

You ever wonder why everyone grows up thinkin’ as soon as they graduate it’s time to get married and have a kid?

You ever wonder who benefits from putting you into a new debt right after you get outta one?

You ever wonder that?

I do...

Verse 2

laid up late again, staring at the ceiling fan, pondering on everything, thinking that I have a plan

but what’s a man, what’s my life cause here’s the scam, toil till we lay and die,

thoughts that keep me up at night, don’t wanna fight but gotta fight

all the fuck news, I don’t get ya’ll, internet clips polarize thought

so the tie clips and the bank vaults can make a buck quick off the asphalt

you want a blue chip for the write off, and a new whip for the eyes on

is it too late for a blank slate? is it too late for me to sign off?

precho 2:

maybe not yet (maybe not yet)

might still have the time to grow my mind out of this dirty, poisoned rut

maybe its best (maybe it’s best)

if I pay my debts and leave the nest I thought for so long... that i loved.

Cause my life’s like...
