I've gotten so much more done since the duo separated than we ever did together.
lyrics
And in the end, there's only one
And it's only begun.
I was lonely and hoping for motion to come.
He had noticed and known me more over the summer.
He showed me where most of the vultures were from.
I was molded to roll my eyes when he showed
He was only involved for a lowly resolve.
As I slowly recall all the bogus and arduous
Moments when he was trying only to cum.
I awoke. I was done, but I waited it out.
I wrote a couple verses and I saved them. I
vowed
To retain my humanity, wasting my patience
'Cause little did I know that he was weighing me down.
Now I'm facing a crowd of about thirty fans.
Now you couldn't pry the mic out of my dirty hands.
If you try, understand
I will fight for this life 'til I'm lighting up stands.
Now I'm writing up stanzas,
And you're stuck looking for something to suck.
Fuck one. Everybody get's a bust.
You're crushing nuts into butter.
Don't think she doesn't know about it.
We gave her a list. Do try to go around it.
Astounding.
We found like a thousand.
You act with a prowess
That's actually cowardice.
Your lying don't amount to shit.
We know you never loved another in your hours in,
So now you spend your days scowling,
Trying to play the card of someone who is powerless.
You never had it in your heart to tone it down a bit
So now you've lost everybody in this town, of which
Tried to surround you with
The lovely sound of bliss.
We gave you music and love. You gave us a pound of shit.
You think we're mowing it.
So now, you're somehow allowed around children. Don't think I don't remember what went down.
You're a minor threat.
In my eyes, you've been out of step.
Just don't try to deny it yet.
You might start to believe you weren't fingering bitches.
You weren't. They're women,
But at the time, a little past your age limit.
Remember Bec, in my bed back when our beats weren't ours?
You only get it in 'cause you make depression your purple heart.
You're like "I'm sad so fuck me."
Like it might add to something.
Your trite act is crumbling
So fight back or just leave.
Your mic jack is unhinged
And mine's latched in the plug niche.
I plight rap in abundance.
You're white trash and a punk bitch.
Don't try masking your love's fiction
with dry threats from your bust lips.
So what about him?
As you can see, we're all better off without him.
I guess that's the price of having good prices. No one would doubt him.
Not because he's right,
But when money's tight and the drugs are ripe,
Then the young kids fly.
Gather 'round the Dunkin' Donuts and the trail. At 14 getting drunk and high.
He still knows how to manipulate a pretty face
Hoping they'll give him some cake.
Maybe a nose full of adderall will change her mind about taking her life where the danger resides.
I'll tell you I wouldn't tell her if you tell me who the side hoe is.
Do you feel responsible that all these children see an idol in
Someone who always thought they'd make big, but couldn't write for shit
And hangs around a suburb earning nothing in his life but them?
Do you see the problem here?
You could've been the king pin of this place, but you couldn't come near
What it takes to run this sphere.
You could've brought people together on The World Around Us.
You're solo part of Blunted could've been dope if you'd have found some
ounce of anything to put down. At least we did more than Suicidal Souls did.
That band, you owned it. I ran our duo, you coasted
And then boasted that you wrote shit.
Look at me now. I'm posted.
City of Ghosts is out. What's your first album?
Can't make it without me? Well that sucks.
Sounds like some bad luck.
Or bad habits from a sad fuck
Have resulted in pools of bad blood
But with this song out, we can put it past us.
