about
Me in my basement studio tryin' to do me a rap song.
lyrics
Ain’t got no kids but the government
actin like i really must be runnin shit
like bleujack really got his pockets filled
like i’ve ever saved a penny like i ever planned a meal
like to pick like to pluck like to try to rap
but always as myself, it’s an honest trap.
ive always kept my EAR as low as it’ll go
but lately i’ve been actin’ like i’m 30 years old.
fuck we’re young, and fuck what we’re told
ain’t drinkin as much, some of my laundry gets fold.
but like these songs they weren’t made for you.
but i hope some relate to my therapy tunes.
and pick, and pick, and pick pick away
at the shit… and the lists.. at any of your everyday
save a beer, or a bowl, some reward
once youve done somethin that let’s ya keep movin’ forward.
and if you’re just too dissappointed in you,
look at what your friends and your family need, too.
then you’re back on your feet ’n feelin kinda frisky.
you helped someone else it was better than whiskey.
lookin for a gal who’s lookin for an average time
you’ll never believe what’s in store for you toinight
i’ll buy some booze at a shitty dive bar.
ride back to your place, cuz the shop’s still got my car.
we’ll get butt naked. i’ll set the mood.
i’ll put on some indie rap, and dance towards you.
i might leave you feelin a little underwhelmed,
but i’ll be gone before the mornin, still feelin’ like hell.
and before you wake up, before ya know it
you’ll have 15 texts of apologies showin
prolly won’t hear from me for awhile
cuz i assume you like spicy and wound up with mild.
but i don’t let my love life get me down
i remember there’s music and friends around
at least when this covid shit steps aside
we can hit kareoke we can hug our friends tight
despite my beard despite my job
despite where I live and that I’m a slob
I don’t regret a single thing, lessons that ya learn
keep ya from doin’ it again.
perhaps i’ve said some stupid shit maybe
don’t see shrinks even though I might be crazy
i don’t think my actions hurt anyone
but I need to learn to start keep my chin up.
lookin for a gal who’s lookin for an average time
you’ll never believe what’s in store for you toinight
i’ll buy some booze at a shitty dive bar.
ride back to your place, the shop’s still got my car.
