Lyrics

Basement

[Verse 1]

I'm chasin' money

Say, do you love me?

Just tell me now

Just tell me now

You call me lazy

Your sister's crazy

You stress me out

Don't stress me out

Yeah

[Pre-Chorus]

I'ma put it all aside

Probably gonna stay up late

Get a little borderline

Forget the date

I know you think I'm tryna escape but

I'm tired and lately, I don't feel like talking

No

[Chorus]

Wanna get away from all the conversation

Just think about nothin'

Get a little faded

You can hear the TV

You know my location

If you wanna meet me

I'll be in the basement

If you wanna meet me

I'll be in the basement

[Verse 2]

Shit's always broken

Like my emotions

I let you down

I let you down

Oh, you were hoping

That I wouldn't notice

You cut your hair, but I didn't now

So I'ma run away right now, right now (Right now)

[Chorus]

Wanna get away from all the conversation

Just think about nothin'

Get a little faded

You can hear the TV

You know my location

If you wanna meet me

I'll be in the basement

If you wanna meet me

I'll be in the basement

If you wanna meet me

I'll be in the basement

[Pre-Chorus]

I'ma put it all aside

Probably gonna stay up late

Get a little borderline

Forget the date

I know you think I'm tryna escape but

I'm tired and lately, I don't feel like talking

No

[Chorus]

Wanna get away from all the conversation

Just think about nothin'

Get a little faded

You can hear the TV

You know my location

If you wanna meet me

I'll be in the basement

If you wanna meet me

I'll be in the basement

If you wanna meet me

I'll be in the basement
