lyrics

Fallin', dreamin', talkin' in your sleep
I know you want to cry all night
Plottin', schemin', finding
Reason to defend all of your violent nights
Promise me you will see

Don't you grow up in a hurry, your mom'll be worried, aw
It was all part of the story, even the scary nights
Thank you for all of the glory, you will be remembered, aw
Thank you to all of the heroes of the night
They gotta repaint the colors, the lie is wearin' off
Reality is upon us, colors drippin' off
Colors drippin' off

Drink out you're own well
Give up you're own wealth
These players is playing themselves
It's painful but I'm praying for
You and your girl in advance

I'm in New York securing the bag
Scoop you as soon as the money come in
Wild your momma just couldn't commit
Love is the only thing that make you rich
But Sisyphus is pissed
I guess I'll make the most of it
Let's not pretend

Simping was the first sin
Remember what your great great great great great great great grandad did
Never too late to forgive
But the time is lost
You count the cost
You count the blessings
The power of God
I did confession
Didn't do this for clout
I did it for heaven
Did it for you
Now finish your breakfast

I'm leaving tomorrow to finish the album
Twenty-four hours to finish the verse
Be back when I blow up, take you on tour
Back on your birthday, whatever comes first
Shoutout to Twana, whatever it's worth
Ninety-nine problems and none of them girls
Heavenly Father, I was a problem
Tell them I'm sorry, but which one is worse
A broken home or a broken heart or a broke boy in New York

Drink out you're own well
Give up you're own wealth
These players is playing themselves
It's painful but I'm praying for
You and your girl in advance

Fallin', dreamin', talkin' in your sleep
I know you want to cry all night, all night
Plottin', schemin', finding
Reason to defend all of your violent nights
Promise me you will see

Don't you grow up in a hurry, your mom'll be worried, aw
It was all part of the story, even the scary nights
Thank you for all of the glory, you will be remembered, aw
Thank you to all of the heroes of the night
They gotta repaint the colors, the lie is wearin' off
Reality is upon us, colors drippin' off
Colors drippin' off
