Watsky - Rome lyrics

Ice Age or a heat wave Earthquake or a plague Terrorism or cla** warfare Or the end of days I asked mama, but she didn’t know Dad just shook his head Put a couple ice cubes in his whiskey, sipped it, and went to bed Can I just pray to God to give me those Vegas odds I ask on behalf of a friend Should I buy my folks a round Or dig my cash in the ground I’m starting to think it’s the end I know, I know we’ll live for a thousand years What’s in your crystal ball Tell me, tell me oh where do we go from here Rome is too big to fall Other night I was riding on a C train Packed car, bad mood When this peabrain drunk-a** slicked back hair, having, leather-jacket wearing a** Roger Klotz grease stain dude stumbles through the train mad rude shoving a finger in our grills with this attitude Yelling f** you, f** you, f** every one of you Yeah, Yeah that means f** you too So when the train pulls in the next station This one big a** hardcore bouncer kinda Teamster kinda Paul Bunyon kinda motherf**er shoves a fool out the car door Throws a haymaker, hits him in the chin The whole train cheers the win We’re all high-fiving, feeling excellent Having extra fun like we’re next of kin Save all your Kumbayas Don’t take this sh** too far You don’t make no friends on no New York subway car How come when we gotta come together We wait until we got someone that we can all come together to hate And then for the hottest minute we set our sh** aside and relate? And then forget again [Hook] Nobody wants to die so nobody thinks of it What if at the blink of an eye we be at the brink of it We tend to be blind when we’re right up in the thick of it We got this life to live and it’s at our fingertips I’m taking my time and trying to be making the most of it Let’s open a wine bottle and we can all toast a bit And I never get light when I’m drunk So f** all the poser sh** I’m tapping a vein, craving the truth, give me another dose of it I’m not digging for danger but I decided that I won’t be taking time for my day for denying how I was made or fighting my human nature I’m only looking to savor the ride I’ve paid for my pride Back when I would cry, cry, cry Spending my life wondering why, why, why Taking the view soon I know it’s all gonna fly right by I will not go out like that We won’t go out like that We won’t go out like that We won’t go out like (won’t go out like) We won’t go out like that
