[Verse 1: Quadeca]
First things first, can we get shit straight?
I've been alone since you left me in your wake
I’ve been alone to reflect on my mistakes
I've been alone since when
When you offered me your forgiveness
I was begging you not to breathe in
Tried to yell at you from a distance
Could you tell when you let me seep in?
Put my feet on the floor, over each, every board
Heard a creak, turning weak, turn the hеat, up some more
It was spreading, you said, "It's housе settling"
It’s nothing, nothing, a howl in the wind
Rationalize me away if it helps
Home sweet home, I can't stay nowhere else
I cuddled up in the vase on the shelf
Ashes, ashes, a place to myself
[Chorus 1: Quadeca]
Anything
Give me anything
Can't let you be
House settling
[Verse 2: Quadeca]
Cracks in the wall, frames that hide it all
Dents in the rug, aging cytosol
Breathe in the air, laced with my withdrawals
Taken by a god, breaking my alarms
[Chorus 2: Quadeca]
Dead to me
Dead to me
Let you breathe
House settling
[Verse 3: Quadeca]
Lock out the pity, you been dizzy, you been tired
You been busy, keep yourself busy, let the paint dry
I feel guilty, I feel guilty, I can't say why
Words you see through the CO
Breaks my heart, but I'll give it a try
[Chorus 2: Quadeca]
Dead to me (What else am I supposed to do?)
Dead to me (Didn't want to cause pain to you)
Let you breathe (Just make my presence known)
House settling (Until it's set in stone)
[Verse 4: Danny Brown]
No, you can't see me, but when you smell me
We going off on a deep sleep (Yeah)
When you inhale me, no, you won’t feel me
We, we going down six feet (Yeah)
Creep, creep through the crack in the walls
Was never there when you called
Now you trapped in that fog (That fog)
Now you’re trapped in that fog
Ain't tryna gas you out, but right now, that’s what's happening
No capping
Fresh out the stove, it's all over
Now it's closed caskets
You dead to me, so rest in peace
When you run into a nigga like me
Make it real hard to breathe
Now you’re stuck and can't leave (Shit)
Can't touch or feel me, but when you're near me
Fill up your chest and your eyes get teary
Say your peace, say no more grief
It's over now, your soul will sleep
No more pain, don't hurt no more
You lost everything you working for
But life goes on, just not with you
Life goes on, just not with you
I'm the air you breathe, can't get away from me
Kill everything, no place for me
Said no one's safe when I touch your face
I'mma leave it cold, just how it go
You dead to me, just go to sleep
You're dead to me, say "R.I.P."
You're dead to me, just go to sleep
You're dead to me, say "R.I.P."
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus 1: Quadeca]
Can't let you be
House settling
