[Verse 1: Raz Simone]
It's 8 am, and I'm hungry as f**
So I walk up the street to the grocery store, pa** up the Starbucks
Because a cup of coffee can't fill my cup
And a cup of coffee can't, can't fill my stomach up
Plus regardless, I don't even like the taste
And the hunger in my stomach is more than enough to keep me awake
So even if I eat this food that I took time to choose and make
I still have that same hunger, 'cause that hunger cannot be replaced
But everyone else at the table is full, I cannot relate
They have some kush that smells great, they rolled it up before we ate
I still have food up on my plate, so I masticate, sittin' up straight
But they slouched on the couch, blowin' an ounce to the face
And they continue to blow, 'til the ounce turns to an eighth
And then it's me that they thank because the house supplied the dank
So even when I'm just sh**tin', there are still moves that have been made
But they lose and I take, and they feel different, so they feel great
Nah, for a few minutes to an hour
Depending on how strong the diesel was up in that sour
But they know that I got that power, so they stay down for some hours
Then they turn the tv on, it took 'em a minute to find the power
I walked to the window, watch the wind blow, the rain shower
Feels like a life-sized fish tank, but I'm in my tower
I wave, it's been fun, but I really have to go
This tank we call a sea is too small for me to grow
[Hook: Raz Simone]
It's never too cold, but never too sunny
So there's rainbows in the clouds
When the rain blows, I'mma swim away
I'mma swim away
I'mma, I'mma swim away
[Verse 2: Raz Simone]
I'm so different from these n***as, they probably laughin' at the course
Instead of doing somethin' different, they do the same sh**, boring
It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring
They're on that nursery rhyme sh**, I'm on that Maury
Who that baby's daddy, it's unfortunate that they were born weak
Born meek, lazy enough to follow, but too scared to lead
And if they could, they would let somebody else walk in they feet
Don't even feel comfortable in they own skin so they take a [puff] of that weed
And then they're gone, movin' at a Seattle speed
That's slo-mo, that's hella deep
Faster than that screw, but too slow for a city
I can't live another year here when time is my enemy
'Cause then you take that year, and divide by at least three times
And that's how many years would've gone by in a New York state of mind
So why is this state of mine behind?
I'm tryin' to get to the bottom of the line
But everyone else is tryin' to climb, you know how the crabs in the bucket go
So it's been real, and I love my home
But I think you already know, I really have to go
Because this tank we call a sea is too small for me to grow
[Hook x2]
[Interlude]
He left everything and everyone
He just left, it's just like poof, he disappeared
Or was kidnapped, or just taken up into the sky
He's just gone
[Hook x2]
[Verse 3: Raz Simone]
I'm doin' breaststrokes through the water
The more I swim, the more it gets hotter
It's hard enough to leave my son, I'm lucky I didn't have a daughter
When he asks where I am, tell him his father's a sea monster
The Solomonster, to be exact, from Razpeattle
And if he's my son, he's bout to grab his paddle
And then run out the house before his cousin tattles
Fightin' the elements and tons of battles
Yellin' 'til his lungs'll crackle
So pack him a jar of honey and a saddle
Because he's gonna be hoarse, and he's gonna need a horse
Ridin' all the trails, no place for a Porsche
Fightin' with his bare hands, hella words, and some swords
Some drums and some chords, the world looks at us as poor
But we're richer than the most, because we're happy and content
With hella heart and hella soul, we walk past all the gold
But we stop for every soul, because that's what matters most
And our priorities, and our goals, the material things are just stones
But they still chase rubble, I'mma hop up in my shuttle
And see if someone up there understands me down here
And then when I get there, I'mma wave
Because even outer space is too small of a tank, dang
[Hook x2]
