Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
[Verse 2]
Broke up with my man and went to Amsterdam alone
So I packed a bag and I called a cab
I switched off my phone
Empty chair next to me
Just my luck, window seat
I'm already lovin' bein' on my own
I'm already lovin' bein' all alone
In a little cafe with a little high grade
Maybe it's a little too strong
But when in Rome
I do as the Romans do
Build me up a spliff or two
Inhale, exhale
Say hi
Hi to the new
[Verse 3]
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
[Verse 4]
If you're waitin' for the smoke to clear keep waitin'
My whole week is eatin' nuff
Origami, preein' paintin's
I will never feel alone
Jammin' with Van Gogh and Frida Kahlo
Bun the stress and bun the trouble
Floatin' around the city
Save up in this bubble
You couldn't burst it if you tried
Hate to say it, you killed my vibe
You killed my vibe and hashed my buzz
Life is blessed till there was us
Rode until the wheels fell off
Crushed the whole thing into dust
Dug a hole, buried us
Nothin' left to reconstruct
Last few months were kinda dead
Saltiness the sourness
Them kind of flavors ain't the one
Need some seasonin', some rum
Need to jet, needed fun, need to do it on my ones
Need to get you off my cloud
Heaviness, it brings us down
Put some space between us
Then put the sea between us
Cool off this heat between us
I wasn't wrong, was right to leave us, behind
Been kinda low and I needed to climb
Hurt for a second but givin' it time
I'm on my J's and it's feelin' so nice
Damn's a healer, booked a flight
[Verse 5]
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted (After you)
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted (After you)
(Needed to get lifted)
[Verse 6]
Part timer in the city, set the trail ablaze
Eyelids kind of heavy but I'm wide awake
Broken from the day we had to separate
But I'm feelin' so much better now I'm miles away
In a haze, lose myself for days
Find myself again boardin' on a plane
Hungry for a change
Little change of scene
Color it in green
Sprinkle it with herbs
Happy in my world
Never been better
[Verse 7]
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
