lyrics

If you’re trynna move a mountain least you could do is ask
Be gentle with the silence, keep fighting with the pilot
Pressure from the center of the task

Two weeks overdue, 23 to make it
Gimme a month to pull it through
Mister is your son well, sorry I was dry
He needed help to focus and I think I know a guy

The routine is 9 to 5, getting stuck on all the wrong words
My mama always said, most of yours are in the know
And most of mine are dead, on god
Each way and always

See you coming round here baby boy
Your interest lies within my hands, a toy
Is what you are, is what you are
Scattered over open palms enjoy
At least this time, at least this time
I’ll release my mind
It ain’t so far, it’s in what you are
Dripping open heart my boy
Each way and always

So tonight we gon give this a test

To the cruise control, miles by the pound
Don’t help the cause if it bruise your soul
If I’m out of touch, I don’t ask for much
Couldn’t cure myself, who am I to judge

See you coming round here baby boy
Your interest lies within my hands, a toy
Is what you are, is what you are
Scattered over open palms enjoy
At least this time, at least this time
I’ll release my mind
It ain’t so far, it’s in what you are
Dripping open heart my boy
