"Quiet Kid" lyrics
Only love will save you this time
And nobody can help you
Hopelessly fighting to escape your mind
In this foreign land where loneliness can keep you–
Look, I'm in the sky, but I can't look down
How can I smile when they can't see in?
I wanna write, but I can't look 'round
'Cause I still see spirits I hide within
And my bro don't lack, he's a violent king
Got my gang like a bridal ring
Bros, yeah, they kept me alive when I stepped to a knife
Better think about the brighter things
I don't care 'bout them, but they care 'bout me
They ask me, "Frenchie, you write so clean"
Nine double-m put my mind at peace
If she sucked my soul, I resign on sheets
Business plan and a final speech
Then I'm back down suicidal creek
I don't do fake friends, I don't chase their dreams
We're just products of losing sleep
Shit, you have never felt this loss
PTSD got my mind on lock
Held two dead bodies, I fight non-stop
But I can't take meds if they overdrop
I guess it made me a man
Now I don't step on the brake, ain't catching a case
Got a drop and a Transit van
Look, I really put time in this, put crime in this, put my life on this
Jumped off a plane from France
Took risks on a chance
'Cause I really relied on this
Now I got crowds in the dance and my pay's in advance
Was always the quiet kid
Now I got crowds in the dance and my pay's in advance
Was always the quiet kid
Only love will save you this time
And nobody can help you
Hopelessly fighting to escape your mind
In this foreign land where loneliness can keep you–
Yo, look, yeah, I step in the stars
And I'm feelin' I could be the reason you put on a song and relate
You'd think I was dead how I walk with a zombie, infecting my brothers estate
My gang in the club gettin' sturdy, I'm drinkin', I'm thirsty, the bottles are flyin' away
Chill with the boss, sit with the mob, I'm a mile away
Let's ride till he can't come back
Out in the sticks so he can't return
Opps died of a heart attack
No symptoms till he felt all that burn of a blade in my starter pack
How you blow so quick? Take a seat and learn
Fuck blades, would rather tap
Down the window in the car then, uh
Only love will save you this time
And nobody can help you
Hopelessly fighting to escape your mind
In this foreign land where loneliness can keep you–
And nobody can help you
Hopelessly fighting to escape your mind
In this foreign land where loneliness can keep you–
Look, I'm in the sky, but I can't look down
How can I smile when they can't see in?
I wanna write, but I can't look 'round
'Cause I still see spirits I hide within
And my bro don't lack, he's a violent king
Got my gang like a bridal ring
Bros, yeah, they kept me alive when I stepped to a knife
Better think about the brighter things
I don't care 'bout them, but they care 'bout me
They ask me, "Frenchie, you write so clean"
Nine double-m put my mind at peace
If she sucked my soul, I resign on sheets
