sick of these hold outs • clean plate so we can roll out cashing checks your heart can’t pay like start tomorrow • no, let’s start it today i’m getting sick of these hold ups • clean slate so we can blow up eyes locked on the treasure you hold why even start the diggin’ if the dirt is gold? now try to shrink down • f it into your self-worth, f ind promise bring it back, let it grow up and go to your head sick of guidance • on the rocks with the sirens crash land in a place and a time “is this really my life?” this one couldn’t be mine.” i’m feeling guilty for ambition like i forgot to ask permission but i’d rather die with my heart in knots than live thinking ‘bout the moment that i might have lost now try to shrink down • f it into my own self-worth, f ind promise bring it back, let it grow up and go to my head blast off • see the world • built that cage, now you live in it blast off • see the world from above shrink down • f it into your own self-worth, f ind promise bring it back, let it grow up and go to your head shrink down • fit into my own self worth, f ind promise bring it back, let it grow up and go to my head

love that never fades in and out • i’m runnin’ out of days love that never folds • through the grit and through the gettin’ old i know impossible, how can it be that two souls emit a similar hue? i’m told impossible, can’t find no body who could love yourself as much as you do love that never swells • keep it the same or it’ll fade out love that never burned • so keep it quenched or it’ll flame out i know impossible, how can it be • two equations plot a similar line i’m told impossible, don’t try to fight it when we start to grow apart over time fold, fold the sheets • take the bus • quickly wrap up now choose another one (choose another one) change the sheets • take the bus • slowly unwrap now checkin’ out the booty • wooden chest under water • i’ll loot that booty choose another one (choose another one) burn the sheets • miss the bus • uninstall app now • wait, swipe me right your feed, and i’m scrolling • you’re lookin’ good, girl think you know where i’m going • don’t go light weight • hella heavy • i’m ready to go whenever you’re ready to go trust me, hella honest • said it’s the real thing and i meant it i promise light weight • hella heavy • i’m ready to go whenever you’re ready to go love that never fades • cold water • tumble dry low love that never dulls • stay sharp • yeah, that’s my arrow i know, impossible, how can it be that two souls emit a similar hue i’m told impossible, can’t find no body who could love yourself as much as you do
