The First Wave

We saw the wave That was building We turned our backs On the horizon Our lungs filled with water As the temperature was rising Think those brokers lost it When those stocks started diving Shoulda listened to those warnings Before people started dying Shoulda listened to those warnings Instead of gimme gimme gimme Fight for every penny The fight is pretty petty Now I'm looking at the stucco Feeling stuck up already Like where did the month go But I'm lucky that I'm healthy Yeah I'm lucky that I'm healthy And my heart is pumping steady Got my shoulders feeling heavy At the gym getting ready I had a dream that you loved me Tried to sleep the whole day after When I woke it all left me Like the end of a chapter Like the start of a disaster But I like my stories gritty What's the fun in looking pretty I like looking like the city I'm not looking for your pity No I'm not looking for your pity So lets cut out all the drums Cause its all just stupid midi Who am I kidding really Oh boy who am I kidding really Got to fake it to you make it And I've been getting thrifty And the marathon continues Rest in peace to Nipsey I'm just a high strung hippie Man I don't even get me
