I’m saying this And it still might not make a sound Way past queens and kings And dont believe in god but we believe in clout The last days of Rome is what we’re seeing now Cotton masks and paper crowns Fake smiles and lazy frowns See the mess we’re tryna to wait it out But it’s going nowhere like Idols with disciples Tryna find their way but it’s just a cycle And the vital signs we ain’t seeing But the viral vibes we like preeing I like photos that have me in I like new shit in my DM Take a step back I’m like Jesus I was on this on AM now it’s PM Pull off with the screeching tires tryna lose myself But I’m just so tired Need some peace and quiet Then man are liars Pagans and vampires I love starting fires And bun down empires Cancel who Cancel what Cancel culture In Council blocks Is where you can get wiped out for shots By opps And real lives are lost and won Thumbs on keyboards like they’re rebores Shooting pop stars like The Beatles Duck from cop cars like they’re evil Wait the law makes them evil tho Some things don’t need police involved Like they’re not crimes some things are just to survive When life’s got you in a sleeper hold Cos life you cant Leave alone Leave your heart there when you leave your home Yeah I swear we leave the weak below And it ain’t all XO’s Each new year comes with a deeper tone Pull off with the screeching tires tryna lose myself But I’m just so tired Need some peace and quiet Then man are liars Pagans and vampires I love starting fires And bun down empires Am to pm Flames on the celieing Troubling breathing Struggling deep in Said that I’m low key You said that you’re lonely Nah you don’t know me Am to pm Flames on the celieing Troubling breathing Struggling deep in Said that I’m low key You said that you’re lonely Nah you don’t know me Pull of with the screeching tires tryna lose myself But I’m just so tired Need some peace and quiet Then man are liars Pagans and vampires I love starting fires And bun down empires
