OFF THE PAVEMENT!

Skkrt Skrrt Skrrrrt This is the ride Off the pavement, pour my heart into a type beat Oklahoma boy, I'm never switching sides My name ain't Lincoln Riley Compromising isn't something I can comprehend My heart is torn apart, that everything I start will come to end Bend, break, ultimately just forget it There's a lesson here, I reckon that you trash your adolescence I said it and I meant it, X's on my hands And understand I fit descriptions that are more than just aesthetic My mug is warm, my spirit lifted on to higher planes My love is long, my soul is trudging on to brighter days My heart is safe, the mice in me are men I paint the image of myself so all you bums will never get the chance Sometimes I'm scared to be the bearer of the missiles Don't think therapy can stop me holding guns to my ambitions Even worse, my words could never put you in my mental I guess sometimes healing hurts, and pain can really clear your vision Grace me with the glimpses, save me from my senses If morals fall apart then let me starve from my intention Idly, I can be a vessel of retention Muster seed situations, moving mountains how I've listened Listen, where the hell is quit? Cause hell if I know Slept three hours on the street to rock a show in Colorado The voices that I follow kills the past that I create And I meditate to free me of my own selfish ways What's the stakes? Cause I refuse to say I can't No percentage of me snake cause I'm from Norman, not Durant Ain't got no time to write a chorus I'd still be writing poems if there were no one here to notice Ain't got no time to write a chorus I'd still be writing poems if there were no one here to notice Man I feel like DJ Lucas, let me talk my talk I represent this city, not the mayor, not the cops My nana died, she said she's proud of me But honestly, she never saw me blow up And that kinda hurts an awful lot To be so weary of your whereabouts Really makes you narrow all the things you actually care about And here and now won't be remembered And I can't write a word that's gonna live until forever Can you feel it in the moment? When you're breathing, can you hold it? Ain't got no time to write a chorus I'd still be writing poems if there were no one here to notice You take the beat away and all you gots a poet
