Pretty Lights
Yellow Bird (Remix)
[Verse 1: DaVon Sparkling]
Vic couldn't have said it better
My footsteps in ashes
The sham of lavish, tragic life
I've been passing ain't lasting
I could say I got drive
Yet still not financially fastened
No slack, just practice
Because my cash is a lil' below average
Always asked if the opportunity passed
Would I grab it?
And I been reaching out
Aside from the peacing out
I want your peace of mind
I'm saying I need you now
I used to rep peace and happiness
Now I don't know what I'm 'bout
Shit
I guess that's life though
Sometimes I feel the things we do is wrong
But I'm doing it with the right folks
Peoples want to blame it on the white folks
But truthfully, I'm just going through life with an open mind
And my eyes closed...
And when my eyes closed, all I see is you
I get my friends high but I put all of them beneath of you
Wish we could connect in a place where it's simply me and you
I know it'll turn out, I get choked up 'till I can't speak to you
But
This is the first day of the rest of my life
And Imma do it right with all of my might
Done telling God that I might
Beyond the consumption and all of the hype
I'm still that quiet kid with bars and a Sprite
I give you all of my life
To see a chance of these haters breaking my stance
Cause I got the world in my hands
Along with your life, my dick, and this mic
Limit's the sky
We do not see things eye-to-eye
Cause these n***as is like knee-high
With these broken wings
Swear to god Imma fly
Don't be fooled by my use of marijuana
Lately I'm pondering my next accomplishments
On how I'm conquering shit
Forward-driven, ay
Who's as polished as this?
And it's kind of sick
These n***as is lyrically unconscious and shit
Your ego fat like lips with collagen is
My kush hydroponic
I find that chronic you smoke ain't even kind of legit
Your new shit ain't as hot as my shit
She throw it at me, you can catch a bitch mounting my dick
Lord save em', pick 'em up
Cause they fall a victim to
The supposedly dope shit that they flip to us
Shit, I'm in the kitchen whipping good vibes and pencil dust
You cannot deny you see your hood vibing, they into us
You don't know what this meant to us
I see so much deceit
Sometimes I feel we weren't meant to trust
They play you like an instrument
Shit, they pick up from pimping us
And right now, I'm pretty numb
Should probably catch me
On a day where I could actually give a fuck
Gon' and stack up money, bruh
Cause these bitches don't need you
Gon' and get that money, girl
Cause these n***as don't need you
Do what you feel's right
Cause in this life you get no re-do
Just remember to give back
And spark some ideas in your peoples
When troubles knocking, I peek Satan
Clearly through the peep hole
Can see the evils
Where my demons at?
I know they creeping, yeah
Ain't no secret, yeah, I seen't the pie
I claimed a piece of that
Tell 'em I'll need the cash
Or I'll be back, I guaranteed his ass
I mean it, I really mean it
I'll tell the world I love you
We can keep the rest between us
My vultures hungry, we just praying on the weak to feed us
So eat your Wheaties
Or be one with cement
For this evening
Your time was given to reevaluate life and repent
Why must I resort reaping?
If I feel my cause is strong
Shit, why must I resort to weeping?
Stuck on this shit so long
Shit, why?
Cause I adore the reason
Why?
Cause I adore the reason
[Bridge]
And this is all for you
And this is all for you
And this is all for you
And this is all for you
And you
And you
And this is all for you
And this is all for you
And this is all for you
And you
And you
And this is all for you
And this is all for you
And this is all for- yo
Ay yo yo
Naw, fuck that
Yo, this for all of you
Yo, this for all of you
Fuck that shit, this for all of you
[Interlude] (x2)
Swear I mean it when I say you never leave my mind
I still wonder if it's times you feel you need my mind
Best believe I'm having thoughts of you and me
And I don't mind
You're all I see but now I need to give me some time
[Outro]
Imma hit the line of someone I ain't seen in sometime
We should reunite and hit the weed sometime
Breath for you, reason why I wheeze sometimes
You're the only proof I got that there will be sunshine
Imma hit the line of someone I ain't seen in sometime
We should reunite and hit the weed sometime
Hit reset, count cheese, and recline as a reminder to ourselves
Why things were sweet in them times
