[Verse 1]
The keys land on the commode, in my humble abode
Monotonous drone from upstairs, got me out of my zone
Leftover coffee in the pot, lukewarm, not cold
Put the needle on a spinning disc and fall on my sofa
It's just another day of doing what a man's supposed to
No gratitude cause noone knows ya
Grab an apple cider from the fridge, listen to some
Oscar Peterson and get some thoughts about how we could live
And with we, I mean me and the muse in my dreams
Whenever I write tunes cause I couldn't sleep
Imagining all the travels, skipping past gravels
In the road, like grooves when we looking for a sample
Inside, the supply of love is ample
But noone sits across during dinner, why even light a candle?
[Verse 2]
Steady juggling odd jobs, knocking out songs
Chronicling the dark parts, sorting out hogwash
That I am fed by all these sensible and grown adults
Grabbed their wrists to feel the pulse, they were comatose
Holding hope in these hands, you see a mic
Even if they're universally panned, you would believe the hype
Instead of pushing it aside as suggested
But you eat at McDonalds like exercise would offset it
It's embedded in your brains, appearance over content
Now where's your crossed arms and sarcastical responses?
Saying Drake is corny but you listen to him anyway
Choosing partners by convenience, nothing more to say
But live your life, I'm on my path, and I've no wrath
To beset you with, I'm just laying plans for my exodus
Headed to places where I'm appreciated
Not taken for granted or a random appendage
[Verse 3]
The worries chisel my frown, time's an artisan
I'd better cancel all the solitary quarreling
It's the same old same, on and off again
The pain won't wane, where's the morphium?
Unsubscribed from the theory that soulmates exist
Divining my own fortune, all I say is this
If you truly want to live in this building, help me build it
Or be a visitor forever, deal with it
It's a joint venture, not a merger
It's a girl-to-woman, boy-to-man curve of development
To get there together, distance can be bridged
And it has to if we truly want to live
And love, I try my best to be my best for us
Encourage you on your path, you are blessed with luck
You manifest good in the world, it comes back, just trust
Can't wait to hold you in my arms, laughing it up
