(Verse 1: Mac Miller)
(?) Is hard to swallow
I met her at a car show somewhere in Colorado
With an act that’s hard to follow, she an astronaut
Been at practice at my house I had a large garage
She take the trolley to the coffee shop around the corner behind the clinic
Had an espresso shot and one Virginia Slim
All she could think about was him, how he’s been and if he’s seeing someone
Haven’t heard much from him since he joined the marching band
Selling their lungs, Percocets, and popping uppers
Her heart would stutter, thoughts were often cluttered, raindrops on the gutter
Her ugly rubber duckling, sinking while the bath drain
Tell her doctor she need Vicodin, it’s for her back pain
Took a nap on the last train, her mind’s in the ashtray
She can’t unlock her conscience left her keys with the valet
Bad day marathon, can’t change the channel
Hard to arrange what’s scrambled
(Hook)
Can you sing me a troubled man’s lullaby
Save the fairy tale (?) for another time
Sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep
Can you sing me a troubled man’s lullaby
Save the fairy tale (?) for another time
Sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep
(Verse 2: Retch)
It was n***as everywhere, it was lookin’ like a plan
Take the fix, started bucking, it was buckin’ by the fan
Little kids started crying, I seen a n***a trip and fell
It was me and bro just dumping, n***a all you seen was shells
When he tried to hop the fence, he was running towards the (?)
Bullets whizzing past his dome, he was thuggin’ by the tree
Another n***a he was fly, (?) play
But them n***as they was fools, so he got run up in his bed
I seen he got away, but it was quiet for his mans
I seen bro get shot, it hit his head in a jam
He pulled his 40 back, co*ked the sh** and kept clammin’
Had this smile on his face, caught excitement from the panic
Could of swore it was a game, he was shootin’ like it’s Xbox
Darkskin, skinny a** n***a, with the dreadlocks
(?) Bodies lyin’ twitchin’
Hit the trunk and got low, heard them sirens in the distance…
Turn and go
