They Shot Ricky

[Chorus]

Tell me all your dreams

Tell me you ain't got fears and hopes and schemes

Tell me you know this life is very rarely what it seems

Show me all the stars that light your sky

What you can't seem to say I see inside

[Verse]

Melt the Mona Lisa through a broken speaker

Euphoria frame me from my frozen fever

Ether, feel it bleeding through the sheets

Lose sleep, loose leaf, you usually read 'em and weep

Peep, my eyes closed, scribe the scroll and watch y'all life unfold

I strike a note, recite 'em and excite your silent soul

Multiply mi mami slide me some warmness

Kinda flame that make the baby grow gorgeous

Great performance, stay late, savor the rawness

Like the steaks are enormous

Hit notes to make the chords that string together the moments

Lord willin', can't avoid the feeling

That we'll get caught for stealing

I pray we make good on a smidgen of all that we've been given

Time that you and I been spending packed a lot of living

Rough draft, I was picked to rock the first round without revision

Can't allow them to cloud our vision

No that's not in our composition

Out of my mouth I spout this ism, listen

Teardrops in my eyelids, screen shots of a life lived

Speaking on through the silence

Please do not try to buy this, it's priceless

That's a lot of prices, either deny it or dive in

Either get loving or lying, either way you ain't surviving

Cross roads in a crisis, I still remember the night when

You let go of that code, rolled over in bed and said it just like this

[Chorus]

Tell me all your dreams

Tell me you ain't got fears and hopes and schemes

Tell me you know this life is very rarely what it seems

Show me all the stars that light your sky

What you can't seem to say I see inside
