Joey Bada$$:

An ode to the worst of my days

I've been working away

But the sky's been looking so gray

Sometimes I really need to get away, yeah

I just need to get away, yeah

I just need to get away, yeah

Sometimes I really need to fly away

I could never forget them gloomy days

Although I regret where my time was played

If I could go back, some things would be changed

And I would know that, for a fact, it was fame

That drew me to this unfamiliar side of my brain

That withdrew me from familiar and the closest remains

Although I'm gaining ends now, I'm loosing friends

They say that time is money, and my time is well spent

Girlfriend hit me up to chill, but does this shit make sense?

And I don't expect for you to know if you ain't paying rent

I got to make this album, and hold it down for my camp

Surrounded us all like bonfire

When I lay a verse down that's born fire

I was born fire

Went outside this morning, morning, uh

Seen the sky was falling, falling, yeah

Old man no longer snoring, snoring, ah

The rain just won't stop pouring, pouring, uh

Whats heaven's capitol like, like, li-like

Maybe I can crash tonight, night, night

Cause I'm trapped inside this hell, hell, hole

God, please answer your cell, cell, phone

I'm coming home tonight, can't touch no microphone tonight

Outside my comfort zone tonight

My brain's blown my dome tonight

Tonight's the night, don't you try to put up a fight

Don't you trying looking for life

Cause I'm bout to take that flight

Raury:

Indigo father, meant to go farther

And travel across the water and park at a million dollars

I am the spirit, I am the guava

You sippin' out of your coconut beverage in the Bahamas

Pardon me mother, pardon me father

I'm glad that you spared a part of us, part of my firestarter

Along with niggas, bitches, and ballers

And people that look down on me like they so taller

I go harder, I go smarter, the flow's water

Like how to rob a dollar, every single piece of change

Movin' to the woods so I never ever change

Lose a couple things but I never ever change

I probably miss some money but I never ever change

And they can say whatever but I never ever change

I feel I understood what the stars wanna say

I'm brain battered from scattering every Saturday

Pitter patter with people that really matter

And I'mma fuck her regardless cause I'm a kid right?

That's why you can't spell summer without trouble

Stripper with no bubble, threesome with no double

Love without hate, life without pain

This without that, choice without thought

A dog with no day, a Seattle without rain

If it rains in Seattle

I'll with lil' nigga, can ride with ya nigga

Fly with ya nigga, high with ya nigga

Ride with ya nigga, survive with ya nigga

Say, if it rains in Seattle

I'll take you 'round the world on a Sunday

With me, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day
