[Verse 1: theMIND]
I ain’t perfect
And you ain’t either
So blindfold the pilot
And plot a course for Egypt
If the plane is dippin’
And the fuel is leakin’
We can land on water
But where’s the fun in sinkin’?
[Refrain: theMIND]
‘Cause you say "I’m so self-destructive"
I say “here’s a parachute
If you wanna fly then spread your wings”, she said
“that’s all I ever wanted you to do”
I know

[Chorus: theMIND, Cam O'bi & Both]
But if it’s gonna crash and burn (If you gonna crash and burn)
Let’s at least enjoy the flames
She said burn baby, burn (yea yea yea)
If it’s going down in a blaze (If it's going down in a blaze)
Let’s at least enjoy the way down (down)
Burn baby burn (Burn)
Burn baby burn (Burn baby burn)

[Verse 2: Cam O'bi & theMIND]
Mayday!
I left you hangin’ with the sky in a blaze
And now the heat is drippin' down off my candle wings
I know I didn’t always give you the best of me
But her friends still think I’m sweeter than that cherry in her Shirley T
Second time we ate at Ruby Tue’ on her birthday, she dropped the news on me
She told me that she wanna go and see other people
I said, “what type of movie is that?
Like I mean, that’s what it better be
I know the dinner was last minute, forgot that they don’t serve your favorite recipe
But bear with me, it’s only ‘cause I’m chasin’ my dreams”
She cried, “you clearly think about that more than you think of me
That’s why I think we need some space and time to grow independent
And maybe it could work at another place in time
But until then we just wastin’ time”
I tried to argue but I couldn’t make her change her mind
She told me that she can’t see the end of her
And I don’t know where I begin
Will we nosedive in the ocean because I won’t open or bend?
Well I pray to God, I hope I can
Oo, oo, oo
[Refrain: Cam O'bi, theMIND, & Both]
‘Cause you say, "I’m so self-destructive"
And I say, “What the fuck you want me to do? If you wanna fly then spread your wings"
She said, "All I'm tryna give you is a parachute"
