I believe this is the oldest song on the album, originally put together back in March 2018 or so. At this point I was just finding my own way to make hip-hop, and my friend Gigi I felt was already killin' at at rapping in her own unique way, so we collaborated. Lyrically for me, I tried to embody a bit of a frustrated emo boi than other tracks :) trumpet vibessss
lyrics
sick of these flows & I'm sick of plateaus and you know we know
sick of being broke and we're sick of these jokes that you know we know
and I mighta misspoke when I said I was broke and you know we know
cause I'm sick of hello, and I'm sick of no show, and you know we know
I've been so alone for the fourth night
haven't heard your voice in a fortnite
take you to the ocean, it's your birthright
watching waves, splashing in the cavelight
dark cave, I'm probably gonna misbehave
feelin' brave, I said forget the aftershave
I'm in a daze, I'm smoking weed, my donut's gazed
heavyweight for a brave new day
new day, whatcha sayin' though
take a break, take a break, go to Monaco
watch my weight, meditate in New Mexico
why do I always hesitate at the Texaco
it reminds me of the time you left me
my heart fueled, it's now empty
i'm bruised and broken god bless me
no need for you to impress me
long showers, yeah you'd undress me
splash that water like Nestle
but these days I'm living life
like Dizzy Gillespie might
sick of these flows & I'm sick of plateaus and you know we know
sick of being broke and we're sick of these jokes that you know we know
and I mighta misspoke when I said I was broke and you know we know
cause I'm sick of hello, and I'm sick of no show, and you know we know
and don't you know this, and don't you know this
it's duly noted, it's fully loaded
Whenever Ice and Fanon come together, you can be sure to experience some high-quality introspective hip-hop. The beats are so smooth under Ice's esoteric lyricism. blessedassistant
this bay area trio has been killin it in terms of a classic yet fresh hip-hop sound for YEARS. This album has a pandemic flavor to it. blessedassistant
