Marlie's Song

[Verse 1: Hoodie Allen]

I used to have a dream I could buy my way to heaven

Even made a promise that I never would forget it

Dreams are kinda fuzzy after exiting my bed

And now the only way to keep it locked up inside of my head

Is just to sing it over

Like the melody remembering the details

Like all the times when they had me working retail

And all the times where we got no love from females

But now we're getting boxes like an email

They wanna figure out how this little sprout came to blossom

How it takes so long to figure out I'm fucking awesome

You be on the internet but never came across him

Guess you weren't looking in the right place, the right place

Shout out to Elizabeth Smart

If you ain't livin' for today then you livin' tomorrow

And they recycling my style then claiming it's borrowed

I guess I'm helping the environment doing my part

[Chorus: Jared Evan]

I'm too young to die, Mama don't you cry for me

Just wait for me, wait for me

We can live our lives just like the other side

Isn't it meant to be, meant to be?

[Verse 2: Hoodie Allen]

Nice clothes, nice hair, nice outfit

Nice to finally meet you, I can tell you ain't about shit

And I'm a Leo so you know I'm tryin' to pounce it

Ask me where I'm livin' and I'm givin' the address of all the couches

At my friends' houses that I crashed at

And then she dipped on me, left me with a hashtag

A broke rapper from a Gap ad

But now I'm Indy 500 and I'm livin' on the fast track

So watch me as I pass back and jump up like NASDAQ

I know you couldn't imagine that

From the kid who was livin' in his backpack

Well I made a promise to my mama, I'mma be a better man

It took a couple months and I got a couple grand to show for it

I take the subway no chauffeurin'

I make 'em proud, baby go for it

Cause I be stayin' underground like I gophered it

If you afraid to be alone then get over it

[Chorus: Jared Evan]

[Bridge: Hoodie Allen]

I know you'll never think it's fair

But Marlie baby, don't compare

Cause it's too hard to relate to you lately

If the good die sooner than the bad ones

Then give me one reason not to have fun

I feel like we're falling away

[Chorus: Jared Evan]
