Late 808

You the first girl I met when I moved to this dumb-ass city
You was pretty, but you wasn’t too pretty
Really wanna kill me like John Tucker Must Die
Know I act shitty, but I wasn’t too shitty, was I? Yeah

I’m tryna stay up off my iPhone

And I’ma love you, girl, the way you need
Ain’t no one gon’ stop us, ain’t no one gon’ stop us
And I’ma give you, girl, what you fiend
I’m the drug in your veins, just fight through the pain

So don’t go wishing
Don’t hate yourself
You’re right here
I’m with you

How could I forget to mention
The bicycle is a good invention

Been holding up what wasn’t mеant to stand
I turned this love into a wasteland

People say we’re alike
They say we’ve got the same hair
It’s you and me on the coin
The industry loves to spend
And when we put this to bed
The internet will go crazy
I’m glad I know how you feel
‘Cause I ride for you, Charli (Charli, Charli)

Confidence is comical
And I’m, and I’m happy
That’s what I like
I’m happiest when I’m doing something that I know is good
That’s happiness for me

No time to joke around, the kid is now a man
And the silence is filled with remarkable sounds
This part, I’ve seen in my dreams
Love is not a lie, it just feels like a Tarantino movie scene

I work so late I need the sunshine on me
You called my name
I won’t come right back, darling
I ran, escaped and felt the deep sea save me
Don’t search, don’t chase
Just let the sunshine on you

We can pretend sometimes
Living between all of your lines
And you can say I’m blind
But I see you

All we are is all we are is all we are, we are
All we are is all we are is all we are, we are

I know I know I know I know
I know you
I know I know I know I know
I know you
I know I know I know I know
I know you
I know I know I know I know
I know you

I know I’ve been away
I’m just tryna get my paper straight, girl
Don’t give my shit away
I’m just tryna get my paper straight, girl
I know I’ve been away (Mmm)
I’m just tryna get my paper straight, girl (Yeah)
Don’t give my shit away
I’m just tryna get my paper straight, girl

Me me me
That’s all we know
Me me me
That’s all we know
You might think you do
But I bet you don’t
You might think you do
But I bet you don’t

I never packed a tool or acted cool, it wasn’t practical
I’d rather let a tactical, tactful track tickle your fancy

I don’t wanna be
Anything other than what I’ve been tryna be lately
All I have to do is think of me, and I have peace of mind
I’m tired of looking ’round rooms
Wondering what I’ve gotta do
Or who I’m supposed to be
I don’t wanna be anything other than me

I had to let a little off, yeah
I had to cut the pill off, yeah
But if we bein’ real though, yeah
Nah, I don’t never feel nothin’ (Yeah, yeah)

Maybe she has in the form of a baby’s laugh
I heard passing by in a stroller remindin’ me, “Hey, keep rolling”
I don’t know, maybe she has with a prick of a blade of grass
I’ve been layin’ on way too long, got me itchy
Got up and roamed a lil’ more

Some got hopes and dreams, we got ways and means
The supreme dream team always up with the schemes

So why? Could you explain?
‘Cause I can’t liе, I’m fed up
Why you always standin’ me up?
And hey, hey
I still wear the t-shirt that you gave me

If you’ve been waitin’ for fallin’ in love
Babe, you don’t have to wait on me
‘Cause I’ve been aimin’ for Heaven above
But an angel ain’t what I need

Me and my truth, we sit in silence
Mm
Baby girl, it’s just me and you

Wake up

It’s the first of the month

I don’t even know what she is
I just took care of the bill

I’m the one who built the tower
I’m the one who holds the power
So come on, rise up, shout it louder
I’m the one who built the tower

I’ve been cruising ’round the town, now
With the guys for quite a while
Oh, we been thinking about starting up a club
That shows some class and style
And we’ll get the finest cars

This is not real, this is a memory
A real memory

New York City, please go easy on me tonight
Nеw York City, please go easy on this hеart of mine
‘Cause I’m losing my lover to the arms of another
New York City, please go easy on me

You’ve got the money, I’ve got the time
You want your freedom, make your freedom mine
‘Cause I’ve got the style it takes
And money is all that it takes

I drink sweet wine for breakfast
Slept about an hour or so
Smiled a little in the silence
Deciding on where to go

“Meet me under the whale
In the Natural History Museum”
I think that’s what she said
A little bit sad about having to leave them

Might pull up in helicopter, dressin’ like I’m going to church

What I want falls
Shorter than perfect
But better than earnest

‘Cause I got time while she got freedom
‘Cause when a heart breaks, no, it don’t break even

Feeling that it’s gone
Can’t change your mind
If we can’t go on
To survive the tide
Love divides

We’re all in this together
Once we know that we are, we’re all stars
And we see that
We’re all in this together
And it shows when we stand hand in hand
Make our dreams come true
