Cortisol

Worry not, little pigeon

It's been city living from the get go

Open up the blinds, see a sign to metro

Under the street lights, green, saying

Let's go

Why your feathers ruffling up?

It's a lot, taking it in

So I can begin to have a

Thicker skin than I should permit

And I don't want to admit

That I reminisce 'cause I've been

Trying to relive to try to forgive

Is that wrong? It feels wrong when I say it

Stuck on the one thought and replay it

It's not gone a year on

I'm starting to think of how it would be if the tape got caught

It's her plan and her choice so she did it

Began to get coin but she said it

My lifespan is destroyed

I'm starting to think it won't pay off

Cause I've got I've got

Cortisol in my coffin I've got

Cortisol in my coffin I've got

Cortisol in my coffin you'll find

Up in the air if it was a good call or not

To me it was irrelevant 'cause I wanted control

Telemarketing to pay the bills

Bargaining to get the kill

Targeting the sick, the guilt is eating her alive

Disheartening a chick of skill

Hardening a mix, a tilt

Harnessing a thicker pill

Easing by, I can't do this anymore

Open the door, I'll be

Out on the porch, knowing I swore I wouldn't

Pull anymore shit on you guys

You've done enough for me swear to God in a lifetime

Got me tied up at a roadblock

Quick hide the weed and the gunbox

Officer walks up, knock knock

Hey there, what can I do for you?

Caught her listening to butt rock

Down low, two joints in her sock

Turn a blind eye just once

Might look good, but God damn

I've got I've got
