Strange Air

I might fuck around and push some weed
I might fuck around get me some cash
Take the homies out and steal a whip
I might pay a down and by a pad
I might fuck around cheat on my girl
Sip and drink and sink until I hurl
Yeah, I learned a lot
But they told me to say that
It's like a strange air
we're high off it
Bunch of us just chilling by the lake
Rusty copped us 40s with a fake
4 essays and 7 something J's
It's all in a dayz
Papa told me that these were the days
Since graduation nothing's been the same
So I guess that's the way it goes
It's like a strange air
we're high off it
Now I ain't throwing no shade
But I cop and cough an O
Your man ain't even got an eighth
Now I ain't throwing no shade
But y'all are
Ain't had a tan since I was in the fourth grade
Now I ain't throwing no shade
'Cause I'm one and the same
I'm a college student lighting blunts on top of freight trains
Until one day a man approached me
from a few cars away
He said, "Some shit is going down ahead
you best turn away"
And so I did but I didn't
I just walked back around
A bloody bag with cash and weed and guns
That's what I found
Headed back to my dorm
Stuffed the back through the door
and security didn't even ask me what it was for
Strange air.

I don't mind
if the stars aren't bright tonight.
I have my smile.
I don't mind
if the sky's not blue today.
I have my eyes.
I don't mind.
I'll be okay-
-if you decide not to stay
-if my computer decays
-if the reaper calls me today, I'll be okay
and ask him to stay away.
I'll be okay.
I don't mind
if love passes me by.
I have my name.
You're full, your heart
Your palms are drained
You love to fight your fate
But you must wake
I'll kiss your face
Come watch the sun rise
with me.
But you said you're scared
of what the new day brings.
Why?
I'm by your side.
You. I.
We'll be okay
and I love you same as yesterday.
Pay no mind.
Let these new rays shine.
New days heal old times.
Seek and you will find.

Hopped out the window
All of my kinfolk
Looks like they all went to sleep
I hear MaskLuv banging them beats
I might sneak over and see
Tonight imma be living me dreams
But not talking about catching some Zs
See that old homie that lives on the street
He's real friendly and we both duck police
He's got a beard and got nowhere to be
so I walked over and gave him pennies
and nickels that I made last week
Mom told me buy some candy
but I do not like it cuz it is too sweet
My dad taught me,
"The stove is dangerous cuz of the heat"
So then I put my hand over the flame
just to find out what burning would be.
Then I was like "ouch, okay
no more hurting for me"
I've been rug-burning my knees
and playing with homies that nobody even could see
I cannot believe
anyone would wanna be any older than me
S is for Six and Supreme
The floor is lava and monkey bar beams
allow me to see the whole scene
Dragon and doggy on each others tails
We don't get along because none of us sleep
But we get along because none of us sleep
Ring around rosie incoming on 3..2..1
Bumping to Space Oddity
and Prince's Musicology
His open letter to Mr. Man
talk me more than the teachers could teach
They always on about brushing me teeth
and "cover your mouth when you cough or you speak"
Yelling at me when I'm climbing up trees
Or even just running through piles of leaves
Obeying rulers is not really me
Banging this ruler on 1 and on 3
Mask replaying it on the Maschine
No bib when I spit it cuz I spit it clean
Then I gotta leave
Here comes the sun
Gotta get home before my mama peak
She might just shreak
but when that door creak
I'm already back and falling asleep
No play when I'm asleep
so I stay awake.

Rusty:
Brand new scratches on my arm
Magic in my claws
Motherfucking addict
Puff the jasmine and I'm gone
Puffing all day long
Till I'm seeing dragons in my lawn
And if I see that snake
I'll make him run
Like a decathlon
Scratch my lyrics into trees
just to test out how sharp they are
and keep these tough lines
more permanent than sharpies are
I spit it deadly
call them motherfucking chocolate bars
So I guess it's Fat Tuesday
Happy Mardi Gras
Why you all bite
but you hardly bark?
That's a bitch move
Entitled little shih tzus
tryna take what's mine
They've been digging up my dirt
but I keep my bones away
from six feet under this earth
At least for now
but the clock's def ticking down
It ain't even been that long
that I've been around
Am I not supposed to question shit?
Am I physically incapable of scratching this itch?
They found duct tape
wrapped around my homie's mouth
and what'd they do to save him?
They just threw him in another house
Me and a couple cats squaded up
to bust him out
But it was too late:
he didn't want to leave the couch
A vibe called depressed got clout
Now self-hate's passing
big Ls all about
That's why I face
big Ls of the loud
and bark even louder
when the drums pound.
Yelped "Yo Mask,
let's get high as fuck"
He already had the fire up
right beside the dutch
Next thing you know, though...
click click
...the lighter's bust
Now to the 24-7 to try to light this blunt
So we get to the corner
Brad opens up the door
Mask stays outside
Cashier looking bored
Gives me matches and
10 beef mini tacos
Then she tries to touch my hair
but you know how that goes
Never been afraid
to bite the hand that feeds
Gave the tacos to Bradford
and the matches to
The Man That Made The Beat
Birds singing and
let him sample for free
140 minutes of tweets
Split it up with Pro Tools
like a Swisher Sweet
Add some drums to it
so the shit sounds heat
And the rest is history
MaskLuv and Rusty
Knitee:
Yellow camaro
Shitty at mathematics
Parties, yes I'm a pharaoh
Psychedelics; an addict
Emotional; bout to panic
Pessimism: can't stand it
Float is a rising come up
plus we're going to brand it
I asked Luv,
"Why the fuck are we so cool?"
He said, "Just be ourselves
and the rest is a bold move"
A super deep perception
I'm friends with all my exes
It's only cuz I know em best
No secrets and no questions
No more of all the "I don't know"
"sorry" and "forget it"
We been through all that shit
and yes: our love, we don't regret it
Just think about it
How're you gonna live life with someone else
and just kill it all?
Tell them about our problems
then go act like we weren't involved.
Now we're losing sleep
but you don't give a fuck
They did you wrong
You just loved the way they grip your thigh
while you whip in the car
Honestly, everybody's looking for a friend
I just need a fucking homie
that'll love me to the end
Yes I know it's all love
and I swear I won't pretend
It's progressions of our lives
and I have advice to lend
See the curly brown hair
still at contrast with the skin
See you're thinking about the times
but we had no time to spend

I will find your eyes in the stars
I will find your pride in my art
They said,
"Art kills. Weed kills. Cash don't.
Chase dreams? Get cramps.
Bet your ass won't
make it far if you wander"
Godspeed You! good doctor
I'll follow suit
and never follow suits
Guided by the thought of you
Forever a student to
Street signs sadly sing your name
I'll be damned if that's the only way
I will find your eyes in the stars
I will find your pride in my art
I hope the road was smooth
all the way to heaven's door
And I pray God's words are warm
as you hoped for
And I don't play my music too loud
So I hope they got Spotify
up in those clouds.

Paranoia got me feeling uncomfortable
Really feeling like the world finna
come for the boy
Why do bad things happen to good people?
I guess Guru's death was just
another win for evil
And if I got as much good inside me
as my mama said
Is there a price on my head
to block this light that imma shed?
I want money to flow through me like water
and be a well for my brothers
and my mother and my father
Imma sell this million dollar album
in my pocket
Imma kill a couple hundred beats
and make a profit
Imma will to life a new love
so y'all can cop it
If the world's gonna stop me
What a shame. Y'all's losses.
To change the world seems so impossible
What if all of my friends up and leave?
What if all of the fruits of my labor's for granted?
Grew up reading Shel Silverstein
To change the world seems so impossible
But look at the odds of my birth
and multiply that by my number of friends
and all our ancestors on Earth.
Just being here beat all the odds
and we both happened to be up at 2
And continued to talk until 4 in the morning
Now I'm late up thinking bout you
To be honest I ain't been sleeping but
I don't really need to
Cuz with you it feels like I'm dreaming
Wonder when I'm finna wake up
And if this shit was the matrix
I would take the red pill
Get rid of all of that fake shit
so I could make love to you for real
I just wish I could read your mind
I'm tired of asking how you feel
It's like you went into mourning
over all the nights that we killed
See I'm looking towards the future
while you've been stuck in the past
The only time I'm looking back
is when I'm looking back at that ass
And when I'm puffing up on that grass
I know that you won't start no problems
And if you're ever going through problems
know that your boy is gonna try to solve em
And even if I can't
I still got that good
and I'm still making you smile
so kick back and relax with the kid for a minute like -

Crept through FaceTime screens
Now I'm all you see
My songs stuck in your head
and my head stuck between your legs
Darling, please let me breathe
Face turns oh so blue
Can't stop loving you
Stuck in your grip
No chance to break away
Plus I don't wanna be rude
There's no time to think about it
Consciousness slipping away
You said you can't live without it
Never said I'd day today
Calves go push me deeper in
Getting low on -
It's our love I'm breathing in
Getting low on oxygen
I hope my sins ain't caught up to me
I'm drowning
Your my life guard
Need your mouth to mouth
But it's just mouth to lips
Losing grip on your hips
as my vision fade out
I guess this is how it ends
Consciousness slipping away
Can't wait till she tells my friends
Never said I'd die today
Shoulda brought my scuba gear
Getting low on -
Holy shit it's dark in here
Getting low on oxygen.
I guess my sins done caught up to me
Tell mom I'm sorry.
