Drive Slow

The seeds I've sown have begun to grow and ima start to harvest
 From palm trees, throw shade down on where we've started
 Keep your pennies, don't need your opinion (uh)
 Well you do you, i'll be pleased to forgive you
 Then we can chill by the window
 Watching the clouds blow in through the moonlight
 A pastime I indulge in when the star's bright
 Just give me space and let me aline the planets
 Weight of the world on my shoulders, I wonder if I can manage
 I swam across the Atlantic
 In search of some Cali weather expanding
 The plan we had way back in 2000
 Plus seventeen or so years, that shit was astounding like
 Grateful for the love and the ones who keeping me grounded
 When Lucifer creeps
 And staying thirsty for the poison when vices are cheap
 Take me to the garden of Eden where I'll be starvin'
 By the way, I'll probably be having to beg your pardon
 Thinkin' of living out my days under palm trees
 Down the avenue I need to drive slow
 Just help me cross these trees in my palm please
 So I can simmer down and get my eyes low
 One day I wanna build a house out of palm trees
 Prayin' I can leave behind my homeland
 Just fly me south of the border
 When November comes, I'll say my goodbyes
 There's little chance I'll ever come back
 Right before I leave
 I got some unfinished business I need to tend to
 See, keeping my side of the street clean is paramount before I depart
 Attempting to infiltrate the circle of stars (not really my style) but
 Money, women, daily on the Daniel sippin'
 Runnin', killing, these habits has got the devil grinnin'
 Mummy
 Grimace is just hopin' that the cycle's finished
 She's seen it before and a daddy who had her kids
 Now im praying not for a kindred spirit
 Nor am I praying for higher horses or righteous livin'
 He made some mistakes and I guess I made them too
 Yeah, well only I saw from a different point of view
 Awkward, she had to break the news
 End of a tether
 Cut them off cold like some wintery weather
 Both growing old, leading lives that were separate
 Missed out on Cupid's attendance
 But luckily for this child in question
 That only gave him the desire
 Just to go and spend my days under palm trees
 Down the avenue I need to drive slow
 Just help me cross these trees in my palm please
 So I can simmer down and get my eyes low
 One day I wanna build a house out of palm trees
 Prayin' I can leave behind my homeland
 Just fly me south of the border when November comes
 I'll say my goodbyes
 There's little chance I'll ever come back
 P.S. I can't forget my shopping list
 Got myself a bit of some property
 Maybe in the city or in 'the sticks'
 Or plane tickets to paradise where the ocean lives
 One day I'll sail in the distance with a pack of Silver rizla
 Some personal effects or maybe one or two scriptures
 Explainin' that i'm only comin' back on one condition
 Umbrella in his hand, the wizard telling me to listen
 Look, careful in the rain
 You'll catch a cold if your unprepared
 I'm an outlaw, I don't need your rules
 I live by the kick and snare
 Plus some ivories to lullaby myself to sleep
 When I was smoking way too much to slumber naturally
 Yeah, uh, and as this flower grows
 I'm asking myself if I ever will return
 'Cause life is a dream when you're under palm trees
 And just for that reason I say I can't leave
 "Why, come back?
 Why did, you need to disappear?
 You're home, with him."
