BROCKHAMPTON - MILK Lyrics
[Verse 1: Ameer Vann]I ain't the same nigga that I once wasI lost my *****ing mind and then I fell in loveI did a bunch of drugs, because I couldn't sleepI lost a couple months, I chipped my *****ing teethAnd there's a couple women, and they know some thingsAbout lies that I done told and shit that I done saidAnd niggas that I robbed, so I'm real paranoidI have voices in my head[Verse 2: Merlyn Wood]Hi, my name is Merlyn, I just applied for food stampsI just moved to California, with my boy bandDropped out of a good school, hippies in my communeI left 'fore the rent was due, used to want a briefcaseAnd a short commute, used to wanna sell cokeAnd whip an Audi coupe, crazy if I did thatWouldn't be talking to youWalking through the pit falls of a college studentCrazy how you get them letters and that make you feel acceptedTil you walking 'round the campus and you the only AfricanNobody with passion, just cats that take direction wellTake acid trips to find themselves, well...[Hook: Kevin Abstract]I gotta get better at being me(Being who I am)I gotta get better at everything(Being who I am)I just want a friend that I can hang out with(Being who I am)Someone I can sit around, lay on my couch with(Being who I am)[Verse 3: Kevin Abstract]Ever since I moved out, I've been brokeEver since I grew up, I've been uglyOoh, I need get me some dollar, dollar, dollar bills y'allEver since I left my momma house, I've been mad as hell at the worldSometimes you don't gotta rhyme when you feel itSometimes I barely ever feel a *****ing thangSometimes I wish that my *****ing phone would *****ing ringAnd go off, and wake a nigga upI'm used to being sad and I'm used to being downI'm used to being used, I miss my boy being around[Hook: Kevin Abstract]I gotta get better at being me(Being who I am)I gotta get better at everything(Being who I am)I just want a friend that I can hang out with(Being who I am)Someone I can sit around, lay on my couch with(Being who I am)[Bridge: Matt Champion]Droppin' all I got on this one dayI just wanna be somebody somedayDroppin' all I got on this one wayI just wanna be somebody somedayDroppin' all I got on this one dayI just wanna be somebody somedayDroppin' all I got on this one wayI just wanna be somebody someday[Hook: Kevin Abstract]I gotta get better at being me(Being who I am)I gotta get better at everything(Being who I am)I just want a friend that I can hang out with(Being who I am)Someone I can sit around, lay on my couch with(Being who I am)[Outro: Dom McLennon]I'm trying to look for motivation of smaller thingsBut baby steps to my atonement when I foster dreamsI've been told I'm too transparent with my thoughts sometimesSo I wrote songs until they pass, and I can fall in lineI fell apart the moment that you thought you found yourselfCause I knew at that point, I couldn't be in the equation anymoreBut moving on with open, broken heartsWill show you everything you need to see about yourself to start moving forwardSo many things I wanna say that I'm not sure need to be knownBut everybody swears they *****ing know meSo why, don't I lay every card I'm holding on the table?At that point I wonder what they'd show meI almost lost my father, still surreal for me to think aboutConsidering how many of my friends have lost theirsI never know if what I'm saying is the right thingIf not, I'm ready more than ever for the crosshairsIt's all fair when it's not youSome people have angels, what if only shadows follow you?And all the ghosts inside that seem to hollow youThe branches of the weeping willow start to swallow youAnd then you realize you're exactly where you're supposed to beThe horizon clears, you wipe the tearsAnd all the skeletons are ready for your story
