"Nostrand Ave" lyrics

"Nostrand Ave"

Ohh, I saw you know [*beep*]
Oh that's nice, I heard he just made the
XXL cover or something, right?
That's cool, so you make music too right?

You know I've never had a swisha, true
You know I've never seen the 'beca. True
Jet lagging, GMT. I was early, yeah yeah
Overspent on the Marly now I'm tweaking, Yeah Yeah
Testimony of a poet off of Nostrand. (True)
See their eye's follow me I don't know them
Noticed you notice my focus was glued to my progress
If it wasn't profit I was hopeless
So what if I'm new here
What if I like it
What if my fear was inviting
Karma come bless me
Calm and collected
We all have to eat
I respect it
30 on the bridge
Knucks on the playlist
Fucking up the words to my favourite (YAGEMMEDO)
Uber everywhere like I'm paid shit
Fuck I have to lose
Nothing left to prove
No one eve knows who I am here
Bet they don't know I'm the truth
Bet they don't know
Bet that she still come through
Bet that her best friend think I'm cute
Think that I'm next up
Pass me the aux now it's awkward
I play one of my songs
She knew the words then it's game on
She like the chorus
The song didn't have one
Fuck it she can still come through
So what if I'm new here
What if I like it
What if my fear was inviting
Karma come bless me
Calm and collected
We all have to eat
I respect it
So what if I'm new here

In all the small towns, I'm yet to go
In all the big cities that we know
I'll meet you there I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there (I'll see you there)
I'll meet you there

Yeah

You know that love was never promised
You know I know your never honest
Men lie women lie, who cares?
Belly aching on that life's not fair shit
Young dumb and careless
Fiction and more make shit
Rolling in the kitchen
Speaking at the function
You was on your black girl magic
Yeah I fuck with it, didn't like the skin
You were in but you were stuck with it
Curious to say, hesitate to ask
Let you carry just to see if I relate
You say you were tired, everyones on Xan
We went from the leaders, to the dealers to
The drug hounds. Molly for millennials
Hands on the ten two
I was on my way to Manhattan at like ten two
Staring out the window
Thinking back on home
Would they even miss me if they knew that I was gone
Let's get gone, forget where I'm heading. I just did a show
For like 700 pennies, throw it on the Insta
Double up on likes. We should stop on 9th
Grab a dollar slice, Staring at the pavement
You was on a tab. Little white pouch in your purse for the dab
Lucy, lucid dreaming. Lucy off the noose
Lucy off the goose. Loosing all my demons
Lost inside your phone, lost with your screen
Just another contact, barely making contact
Barely making sense

So what if I'm new here

In all the small towns, I'm yet to go
In all the big cities that we know
I'll meet you there I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there (I'll see you there)
I'll meet you there

Oh yeah, I thought you look familiar. (Me? Nah)
So so where you from again? (London)
Word? Nah I love your music it's mad poppin' (What my shit? Maud.)
Like you got a little future or whatever like for real (word?)
Like it's cute, You cute! Like I'm feeling it you got a little swag (me? You're alright still.)
Where you from again? Watchusay?
Ah that's cute, alright
Well, you know me and my girls we just gonna go to this club
Um, but it's like guest list, you know about it right? (what the places plus faces ting?)
Like everybody supposed to be going
If you going can you put me and my girls on the list
Because I'd really love to roll with you
(Wait you invited me and you want me to put you on the...)
No, just so we can get to know each other more
(Oh word? Oh ahh trust, true say)
Like I'm really interested in like how you grew up
You know, it's interesting
(Mad)
