Ascending/FALLING

- Part 1 -

[Verse]

Uh, uh

I started from the bottom, now we here

Where? Nowhere

Ten toes planted still, shoot at will, hope it kills

Spray and pray the days away until it pays the bills

I'm not sure what's real, both hands on the wheel

Being dead's my only fuckin' skill

Could be starrin' in a movie, but I feel retarded

And the mirror tellin' me that I am not a role model

My whole life or the beer bottles

My whole life or the lost lottos

Leave that bitch in the hotel lobby and don't look back, that's my motto

But lately I been fallin' for these hoes

Got this one girl, think she mean my whole world

Come to think about it, never felt in a minute

Come to think about it, never fell for a woman

Legitimately grittin' my teeth

Losin' sleep, jealousy, balls deep in grief

How am I gettin' soft? Nah, I got a hard-on

Maybe I just need relief

So conflicted lately, should I call her? Maybe

Should I call her "baby"?

Thinkin' is killin' me, my sickenin' thoughts are gettin' the best of me

As for the rest of me, my whole body feelin' numb

I been crumblin' to crumbs, I'm feelin' dumb

This shit is daily routine now

Got a feelin' it's gonna go down south

I been in it for a minute

Now I'm thinkin' that there's never been a moment in my life like this

Could it be forever? Could I die like this?

Can I really live my whole life like this?

[Bridge]

Goddamn

SAGE!

- Part 2 -

[Verse]

Fallin' like a landslide

This downward spiral that is life on the west side

Got eyes wide allnight

Fuck is California dreamin' if I'm never really sleepin'? I-

Might take my own life

Never tried much, but I'll try once if that's fine

High, left her last night

These bad decisions fightin' demons, out my mind

Get out my head, I need some head, I lost my head, get out my bed

I'm tired o' sex, I'm tired o' textin', head on my chest

My baby rest and I start to regret

Everything I ever did and everything I didn't do

Are we really something? Do I really mean a thing to you?

I could say a thing or two if I ever spoke to you

Funny we're together, but I'm still afraid to talk to you

Plus, I think you scared of me when I'm makin' love to you

Is that all we are? Is that all we are?

Are we all scared of the dark? Scared of this locked box?

Paired or we not, should we really just stop?

[Outro]

Just empty your mind

Be formless, shapeless

Like water
