"Parallels" lyrics

"Parallels"

I live alone, die alone
I'm my own boss
Turn my phone off, on my throne
Catch me at home
I live alone, die alone
I'm my own boss
Turn my phone off, on my throne
Catch me at home

But the stakes are higher now
I'm all trimmed up on a diet now
But the stakes are higher now
They want milk from the finest cow
Bang, bang on the door, who's there? (I'm scared)
Let's see what we can do
I love myself and I love you too

Can't fight that fluid feeling, no
Can't force that juice

Damn ho, you can rob me, I gave up getting paid
Rambo mixed with Rodney, I'm cracked out in a cave
Damn ho, you can rob me, I gave up getting paid
Rambo mixed with Rodney, I'm cracked out in a cave

I just need a little bump
To tap into that higher flow
I just need a little bump
To keep me afloat
I just need a little bump
To tap into that higher flow
Same thing that got me here
Barely keeps me afloat

This new humility and gratitude
Robs me of my fantasies
(Robs me of my fantasies, oh-oh-oh-oh)
We're all philosophers, our platitudes (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Covering up our jealousy (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Covering up our jealousy, jealousy, jealousy, jealousy)

Damn ho, you can rob me, I gave up getting paid
Rambo mixed with Rodney, I'm cracked out in a cave
Damn ho, you can rob me, I gave up getting paid
Rambo mixed with Rodney, I'm cracked out in a cave

Why don't you stop? Why don't you quit?
You'll never get better, you'll never get over it
Why don't you quit? Why don't you quit?
You'll never get better, you'll never get over it
Why don't you stop? Why don't you quit?
You'll never get better, you'll never get over it
