Temporary euphoria
Or a release
Hm, yeah, especially if you constantly gotta work
And do things that you might not wanna do (mhm)
That's like temporary happiness real quick
It's an escape
And I make music about that because I feel it gets to a point
Where you live so much of your life in that state because you work so much (ah)
It's for years that I been doin' the same shit
Motherfuckers like to use that word, "Toxic"
But that's the Internet word that people like to attach to shit
I don't think that's an Internet word
I think that's a real word that really means something
Temporary euphoria (motherfuckers like that's the new shit though)
Motherfuckers like, "You never heard"
Toxic's been around for centuries
It's like I'm out this mo'fucker for a lil' bit, while you bullshittin'
It's an escape
That's how I feel about it
Shakespeare used it
That's a Twitter word
The Taming of the Shrew
Anything that doesn't apply to you, feel me?
Yes, ah, you feel me (rainbows and butterflies)
I fuck around, drink, and bullshit they gon' be like (they gon' be like, "It was toxic")
Bustin' random chicks and pop some E and bullshit
But if you sing that, people gon' want you to make some shit that's romantic, or sweet
It's like, "Fuck it," like
It's an escape
So if you sing some real shit, and people like "what's toxic?" and "what's real"
Honestly, truthfully
Okay, I get that
Like I know I gotta wake up in the morning and go to work
So lemme bullshit for the night
This right here euphoria
The thing that come with this shit
Is-is, uh, it's like reality times ten
♪
Every year before like ten years
As far as the people that you meet
The places that you go
Temporary euphoria
Or a release
So it's because of that, that's why I'm gonna approach shit
A lil' more in retrospect, and it might come out harsh
But I think it's just more honest
Let's just keep that shit honest, fuck it
What purpose do your vices serve in your life?
