[Verse 1]
Fame getting cheaper, the price comes with privacy
When lame's bought Youtube views, I bought property
Rooms to escape in, books to get lost in
Cheap wine to sip on, a back porch to grill on
Doc told Phil he had six months
It's been six years, he laughs when we wakes up
Now he throw life parties just to celebrate breathing
Stories like that give life a new meaning
Make me re-think hip hop
Maybe move to Bermuda and start a gift shop, teach kids to pick locks
Open doors to their mind
When I was 9, 9's were cool, what bloody waste of time
Blood on sidewalks, what a bloody waste of lives
I walk through Best Buy like what a bunch of wasted rhymes
Believe I've studied all of Bukowski, Hughes
Both of the Carters and recorded 'til my face turned blue
Ate the cold pizza 'til the plates brand new
The best advice I ever got was "Make sure you're the same you"
[Hook x2]
So come as you are
Nothing different at all
[Verse 2]
This thirst thing's out of control, who'd a thought
All these small opinions needed a home
My Homie won't admit it but his best friend a phone
Kinda get defensive, so I leave it alone
That's called temptation, sometimes you gotta fight that
You know how many messages I get and never write back
Know how many right after the show, Skewby where you bought to go
Then I tell her Club Pillow, that's my way of saying no
Who ain't a work in progress
We all know ain't nothing new under that prom dress
Accident babies turn up as mom's best
Ask my parents
Hope they're not embarra**ed when I'm honest
I'm on less cause it's worth more
Isn't like I chose to wash up here on earth's shore
To sit in your box, or play by your rules
Not to step on your shoes
But don't change, just come as you are
[Hook x2]
