Lyrics
You've been on the windowsill I've been on the floor Beige, torn carpets stained with my sadness Spill another drink for sure You've been on the Yeah, Rhythm of the Blue, I feel that Riddle with the ruse, I peel back The covers of my bed, I'm ahead of the clock Talk myself down before I nervously tick about my family and Shit, my job waiting for the callback I gotta haul ass Driven by the money for the bills, I just call that Monopoly Can't go to Jail but I'm in Hell, no Windows in my mind looking like some cells nowadays Passion for getting it in ways I can't imagine From diving in the sheets to diving out my mental madness Clothes, I don't need them anymore Got some meds for my heart but my brain turning cold, that's for sure I'm in love with infatuation Hurt by my own effort Sounds like it's just another letter Bound by the ink in every letter Scotch turn these bonnets into peppers Think I need to pull myself together You've been on the windowsill (Windowsill) I've been on the floor (I've been on the floor) Beige, torn carpets stained with my sadness Pour another drink for sure (Pour another drink for sure) Murder on the beat, so sad Apologies to Moms and Dads They just lost they kids to the world A world of competition and self-deprecation This calls for a celebration, ha Posters on they walls of they idols Crosses round they neck but no Bible They ain't feeling soul, they just idle If it ain't a sample, they don't like you Memorize what I like to do I like my beer ginger, it bites back I like my eyes for the times, the tears, they fight back I treat my pens as pals, they write back My journals MLA to cite facts My covers, I tell life "design that" Similes Similac could never settle Jumping for Jiminy Crickets' pipe dreams like the son of Geppetto Head down, eyes shut, time to play Seven Up Bowed down, hands clutched, bottles gone, Heaven's Up You've been on the windowsill (Windowsill) I've been on the floor (I've been on the floor, floor, floor) Beige, torn carpets stained with my sadness Spill another drink for sure (Spill another drink for sure) You've been on the windowsill (You've been on, you've been on) And I've been on the floor (Ay, ay) Beige, torn carpets stained with my sadness Pour another drink for sure (Pour another drink for sure) You've been on the I do way more than lie I do way less than cry I had two separate verses but this one's the realest The other one I wrote but this is where I feel it, on the floor I take my personas on a playdate, children at the core Song 2, file 12, Heart of War Sun-Tzu, Martin Luther prophet Not a King Balance on my ring Ying yang, monochrome hues, Burnt brews Tender bruise, wounds aplenty Dilated eyes Dialectic rhymes Find what I said if you want it Ain't a lottery pick, this is hard work To keep my soul above the earth To let my dreams define my worth I'm cursed like any other being But what's a curse except a cause and effect I affect those around me, but even I can't sound me out like phonetics First gen to do it, no genetics Pound the pavement for aesthetics But this a different struggle, you don't get it My hooks are far and few cause they can't carry me Take a hatchet to a cherry tree, would you believe I'm not the first to do it, I just do it Break away sometimes to find myself in pieces, then I need to glue it A rubber band man that's spinning through the city in the form of records Even when the game is simple, you can lose playing checkers If the business mine, then I'll mind it Switch the carpet to some tile Now I gotta get up 'fore the devil start reclining
