[Intro]
I'm not trying to hurt you, but I'm just- I'm so tired of disappointing you
How do you look at the girl you love, and tell yourself it's time to walk away?

[Verse 1: griffy]
I ran out the door, filled with amazement
Stumbled down the stairs it's the dream and I chased it
For a minute there I guess I felt complacent
But this who I am, "The Boy in the Basement"
Yeah, yeah, solo and free
And I know it's lonely, I agree
Hitting my hand on a tree
No more restrictions it's me
Yeah
I feel like a beast
Blood of a lion
Heart of a giant
Skin made of iron
Walk like a titan
Pierce like a trident
Call me Poseidon
There's fire all around me
There's flames at my feet
And I feel like falling down
And I really can't breathe
Got me thinking too deep
Hidden weapons in the attic
Machete in my pantry
Steady swing fastly
Ready to be blasting
Swirling the blunt
Drink the Henny, laughing
Deemed with insanity
I dream of calamity
Yeah
70 percent, but just three hours
Don't got the fame, but I got all the power
Turning the blocks; blast 'em louder
If you don't smoke crack, you are a coward
70 percent, but just one hour
Not really sweet but I taste really sour
Eating ass like I'm eating clam chowder
Badass motherfucker because I pee in the shower
We cannot stop, that's how we're wired
Call me a priest, because I spit on your choir
Call me Ye, "Can we get much higher?"
I got too much ice to split this fire

[Verse 2: Jason Brook]
Protect the planet? I know I will
Mother Earth? For her, I'll kill
Fill this cup, it's for you
Full of Gatorade, yeah it's blue
Sewer Drain origin
Flow is foreign and
Unforgettable
Multiple syllables
Rap pack
Mixed with the mismatch
Of chromosomes
In my zone
Gamer of the phone
Outta here bro
Griff gang
Forever
My one and only go

[Verse 3: griffy]
These are the papers you bind
These are the bars that we rhyme
Man in the Attic, I'm gone
Play me like Tracy, a song
Ever since Micah had passed
Missing the sound of our past
In the freestyle I left
In the same measure, I cleft
Call me the coach, call the ref
Need me a Hybrid, I wept
Yeah
This that look of amazement
This is that dream that you chase it
These are the facts that you face it
This is that Boy in the Basement
[Interlude]
I see the way you look at him
I know because you used to look at me that way

[Outro: griffy & Jason Brook]
Actually, this could just be the end of the song
Yeah
It coul— I don't even need to record anything over it
Okay, I think that's it then
Yeah! Di—
