Watch me kiss the sky.


Kiss the sky.


See I've been searchin' for somethin' out there,
When is it comin'? Tell me,
What to tell myself,
When I drink so much that it hurts my health,
'Cause I stay up way too late,
And I owe a million favors,
I can't overstress myself,
So I wrote it down to express myself.
I'm lookin' in the mirror tryna find,
Peace of mind in a piece of my
Inspiration back from the beginning,
Life's a movie, I can't make revisions.
Ate an eighth of shrooms and started trippin',
Had some visions that were nonexistent,
I think I just left the solar system,
Doesn't matter, I still kept the rhythm.
Diamonds still gon' light up like a prism,
That's from years of grindin' independent,
What was at the bottom now has risen,
If this isn't Heaven then what is it?
Always real but never realistic,
Want the world but nothin' in specific,
Don't need shootin' stars to grant my wishes,
I'm a superstar, let's go and get it,
let's kiss the sky.

Now can I, lay underneath you?
While they play all the previews,
And I'll pretend like I'm restin,
Maybe you'll skip to the end and 
Pass all the irrational decisions,
Patch up all the passion that was missin',
I think that's enough, I'm feelin' lovesick,
Rollin' loud, I'm on some turnin' up shit.
Paid a couple hundred for a high that I couldn't get on my own, on my own,
And I've been lookin' for a long time, but I never found home,
Everything is alright, I'm around for the long ride,
Go get drunk and find some trouble,
Add some pieces to the puzzle,
Couple rights, couple wrongs,
That's the prequel to the sequel.
And all the space in between us,
Are memories that we conceal,
The jagged edges of a pill,
Remember what it is to feel,
Windows down behind the wheel,
Gotta do it for the thrill, 
watch me kiss the sky.
