[Verse 1: Mustafa]
Sometimes it feels like it's a dream
Everything is not as it seems
If only I could find a pair of glasses
To help me see the ones who truly be
They live and we sleep
Pray my days will never hit one
Take me far away from the sun
If only I could find my way through space-time
Back to when I was happy being me
They live and we—
[Chorus: Daniel Caesar & Mustafa]
I can hear the bells ringin', remindin' us why
We're still here singin', it's Father Time
We're stuck in The Matrix, living a lie
I'm not afraid to die
[Interlude: Daniel Caesar]
Twenty-four hours after CS:01 released
Time to hit the streets
I went to check my dawgs, get some vitamin C
Twenty-four hours after CS:01 released
Time to hit the streets
Went to-went to check my dawgs, get some vitamin C
And I woke up in an ambulance
[Verse 2: Daniel Caesar]
Take me back to 2014
Saw a pic' this morning
Far along the journey
The future was alluring
On the other side of TVs, hoping that they see me
But, they hardly see me
At least that's how I see things
Isn't it funny how the time flies
Like a G5 jet in the turbulence
Well, we gon' make it home tonight
Alright? Alright? Right, alright
My misery is boring, finally, feel confident
Yes, that's an accomplishment
Many more commas to get
[Chorus: Daniel Caesar & Mustafa, Daniel Caesar]
I can hear the bells ringin' (Bells ringin'), remindin' us why (Remindin' us why)
We're still here singin' (We're still singin'), it's Father Time
We're stuck in the Matrix (Stuck in the Matrix), livin' a lie (Livin' a lie)
I'm not afraid to die (Oh, oh)
[Verse 3: Daniel Caesar, Daniel Caesar & Mustafa, Mustafa]
You know, Stockholm, long roads, on go
You can't even reach me
Just know, whenever you need me, we'll figure it out
Look up and you'll see me, and I'll be around (Yeah)
'Cause when I'm home, I'm lost, let's go make it look easy
Oh, take it easy on me, it's still my city, it's still my city
[Outro: Daniel Caesar]
Twenty-four hours after CS:01 released
Time to hit the streets
I went to check my dawgs, get some vitamin C
Twenty-four hours after CS:01 released
Time to hit the streets
Went to-went to check my dawgs, get some vitamin C
And I woke up in an ambulance
