Please forgive me cause I got some issues
But I'm really trying my dear
Plus all the shit that I been smoking
Just a way for me to hide my fears
Just let me know if that's a problem
Cos to be honest I'm not really tryna dry no tears but
Thank you for the tissues anyhow
I'll see you later probably best if I don't hang around
Flashing light like morse code
As if the message to be received is
'Don't stop 'til oblivion'
Glance at my fuel gauge still good for a minute, umm
Couple of miles a way caught Lucifer's minions
Few shots to the head should hopefully keep them
From dragging me down the tarmac back to a grey jungle
The city with all its sinners and snakes
Winners and crowns to be claimed
Killers and pounds to be made
Look, that's when my mother called
She was looking for her only son
Said all he needed was to skip town
She asked him 'what the fuck you running from?'
(What the fuck you running from?)
Frankly the walls of the city were suffocating
And tryna swim on a river of tonic and Tanqueray
With a doggy paddle hardly brought the results that I craved
Searching for new territories all far beyond where I stay
That's when a voice told me to
Jump in the whip and just split
In need of a sweet escape to rid the bitter taste on my lips
Dreaming of ice cream, cookies, salted caramel drip
To accompany a great adventure, little break for a bit
Yeah, now I need a place to rest my head for the night
Or better yet some company in a friend
Just at that second retina catching the glimpse of sign
Leading to somewhere that could maybe take me out of my head
To the door and was met with a face
Female looking wrinkled and aged
She didn't really fuck about but asked simple and plain
If I was here to party and boogie 'til the moon went away
As it happens I got no plans tonight
I could be partial to a little peak if it's alright
She said 'of course but before I can be letting you in,
I have to ask have you got anything you shouldn't have Xin?'
Please forgive me cause I got some issues
But I'm really trying my dear
Plus all the shit that I been smoking
Just a way for me to hide my fears
Just let me know if that's a problem
Cos to be honest I'm not really tryna dry no tears but
Thank you for the tissues anyhow
I'll see you later probably best if I don't hang around
Check, so now I'm walking in
Didn't really think that I need this
Little celebration of good times
Well to be honest lately I've been avoiding them
Sooner or later boy will need his remedy
Then as if on cue she hit him with that side eye
Rocking orange flairs straight out of the 70s
Brown eyes blonde hair hard to tell if an invite
Whatever happens I guess it's meant to be so
A sip of courage like a dog to a bone
They say dutch plus the liquor make a confident bloke
Especially under circumstances where a chance to elope
With a madam of mystery like murder she wrote could be on the horizon
Still, Xin usually an hombre with an iron will
But it's hard to think straight when you're higher than Orion's Belt
His game's sloppy but I'm guessing only time will tell
Fast forward, didn't go too well
Funny how cloudy your mind can become off some potential fornication
A chance wasted
Consequence when you aren't patient
You can't blame him, lost his sense when he started taking
Shots to the head tryna fill the void of a heart vacant
Please forgive me cause I got some issues
But I'm really trying my dear
Plus all the shit that I been smoking
Just a way for me to hide my fears
Just let me know if that's a problem
Cos to be honest I'm not really tryna dry no tears but
