Eli Arbor - After Graduation Interlude lyrics

[Verse] Pictures on the wall, pictures on the ceiling Paint a paint a picture, f** a filter, I need feeling I'm searchin for answers, they evasive I'm tryna sail away, waylaid cause I've got anchors "Please come home," she whispers Been a while since I been back My friends, they call out my name It's been a while since I've been that Eli from knee-high, with a full name no concat Text me, don't text back Call me, don't respond back When I'm out here all alone, feels like the ocean is my home And when I remind of what's left behind I start to divine and then I miss home Should I go back where I came from? Even though I ain't the same one? And will they remember my name, the son who left four years ago? And if it ain't home, then where will I go? And if I return, will anyone know? Or will I be facing these crowds where I'm faceless, the shell of a boy long ago? I've never been scared of the future When I was sure of my station But now I'm staring at the stars Cause nothing's certain after graduation [Outro: Childish Gambino] ...after college You graduate and you're just like "so I'm not going back there"? You know, you're just like... It's just, it's a recurring theme that I feel like... is in life Like, life is just like learning how to let go
