Ferndale
[Intro: Female Voice]
Here we go again, OK
We're gonna go back, to the beginning
So close your eyes, and visualize
How it feels, 'cause the shoe is real

[Verse 1: Elzhi]
Use to roll a joint, then you drove us to the Cider Mill in Prada heels
Life was like truffle fries, a turkey burger slider meal
Summer time, Ferndale, Michigan, missed ya friend-
Ship I said friend, trip, never left the land strip
Still we had a blast downtown playin' Pinball
Touched you in the right spot, thеn I make your skin crawl
When Fall came wе rolled our bikes over the leaves
Changing colors, weaving sheaves
You had more tricks up your sleeves
Soon you would surprise me
With ya outlook and what ya eyes see
Every route took as a queen
It's not about rooks, pawns, knights, bishops
Tryna knock you off your square, from getting next to ya king
To rep the Ankh on your index, through a ring
Had me open like the flowers from effects due to Spring
At the Zoo, inside the Butterfly House
Searching for some inspiration
You got on a sundress, that's a view
[Chorus]
It was just me and you, living life
Floating through the city
Hope you can remember how it felt
Yeah, partying at Bosco’s
Havin’ TreatDreams, stop at One-Eyed Betty’s
And I got the patty melt there
Just me and you, livin’ life
Dippin’ through the city
Gazin’ at the stars over Ferndale
In our own world, bottomless Mimosas
Bumpin’ Affirmations, incense, hot clay when we burn L

[Verse 2: Elzhi]
If we wasn't at The Magic Bag, we was at the Emory
Remember we, snuck candy and Coke in the dollar show
Memories of us two, just you and me doing Chi Mediation
Right before, brewing tea, medication
For my spirit, fed my soul and all it took was dedication
Time with you had me flying high without no destination
We would shoot up to the library, or hit the Water Station
Or the park, after dark, where we spark the conversation
About Astrology, some government policies, compassion
For apologies after receiving branches from an olive tree
If you had it your way, everyday would be sorbet
Shel Silverstein books, Tiger's Eye, and foreplay
Can't forget Ferndale, our bond was dope
We encouraged each other to push the envelope
Like return mail, look at you, you doing your thing now
Moved away and got the world on a string now
[Chorus]
It was just me and you
Dipping through the city
Floating through the city, riding high
Living life
Dipping through the city
Floating through the city
It was just me and you
Dipping through the city
Floating through the city, riding high
Living life
Dipping through the city
Floating through the city, riding high
Living life
