World Is Fucked

Ride is my summer bop. Made this song at the end of one of my sessions as we were packing up. We ended up staying a few more hours and finished the song that night. I think that’s what’s special about the song, we didn’t overthink nothing, just had fun creating in the moment.

LYRICS:

No one gave me shit
I worked for this
At this point I’m just
done with encouragement
You say talented
I say calluses
I’m tasting my blood just pronouncing it
Since Fairfield days
The beats I made
I may have quit drinking but dream the same

I was told this the moon
Like good luck, Mr. Rocket Shoes

And they ask me why you workin’
All days of the week
To get somewhere you’ll never reach

I’ve been wishin’ for better so long
I guess I’m sick of wishing in by bed alone
If those wishes were weapons
Their full metal jackets are stuck
So fuck wishin’, I’m here with a gun
Jiminy Cricket never made me anyone
All my clips are full of bitterness
And I’m coming for you
I’ma bloom like a wicked magnolia

I’m not stoppin’ this
Just the opposite
I won’t drop when most people need oxygen
Since the green Lexus
Since the weed excess
Since the drink was my treatment for depression
Man, my lips been blue
Fuck what stitches do
I’ll put red on this mic like it’s ’92

I was told this the moon
Like good luck, Mr. Rocket Shoes

And they ask me why you workin’
All days of the week
Toward something you’ll never be

I’ve been wishin’ for better so long
I guess I’m sick of wishing in by bed alone
If those wishes were weapons
Their full metal jackets are stuck
So fuck wishin’, I’m here with a gun
Jiminy Cricket never made me anyone
All my clips are full of bitterness
And I’m coming for you
I’ma bloom like a wicked magnolia

Until I’m taken by weeds
My will is my leprosy
Instead of wounds that scrape the sheets
I’ve got no turn back in me
So set glass beneath my feet
Take the last breath that I need
To meet what glows beyond my reach
I’ll become a tragedy

There’s is no hell that spells retreat
Fuck your gravity
This to the grave
This to the grave

LYRICS:
Baby, this one’s for ya
It’s like a little bit of sun for ya
And just a little bit of sex
And a little bit of resting your head on my chest

‘Cause baby, we’re wasted
And if me and you wasted
You can meet me in a way when you’re playing this song
This where we’ll meet one day when we say so long

This a place for our better days
Just me and you in our imagination
This a place we can forever stay
Just me and you in our imagination

Baby, this song’s for ya
I went ahead and caught it all for you
I caught us our sons
And a little bit of all we coulda become

So if one day we’re wasted
‘Cause me and you are wasted
You can meet me in a way when you’re playing this song
This where we’ll meet one day when we say so long

This a place for our better days
Just me and you in our imagination
This a place we can forever stay
Just me and you in our imagination
