Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was going up the coast
In a minivan that broke
Like my voice when I told you I was leaving
Pack my bag up, sick of home
Never homesick down that road
In my room by the moon with no ceiling
[Verse 2]
I was driving in a van that was older than I
And I plus five, heading Kanye West
Off the tip of Argentina
Better than drowning in gin
[Verse 3]
Ain't got no saint to blame instead
Of my reflection, so I dreamt
I packed it all like Anderson
To end up where it all began
[Verse 4]
I was going up the coast
In a minivan that broke
Like my voice when I told you I was leaving
Pack my bag up, sick of home
Never homesick down that road
In my room by the moon with no ceiling
[Verse 5]
Used to want to live in Brooklyn
With a view from my apartment
No more homies on the block like
On the corner like a stoplight
[Verse 6]
I'm a ghost, they never notice
Never showed up for the showbiz
Took it back at the beginning
When I knew why I was singing
[Verse 7]
I was going up the coast
In a minivan that broke
Like my voice when I told you I was leaving
Pack my bag up, sick of home
Never homesick down that road
In my room by the moon with no ceiling
[Verse 8]
"Brown sugar," she called me
The last time we spoke
This hard drive gon' save me
She answered, "I know"
[Verse 9]
I was going up the coast
In a minivan that broke
Like my voice when I told you I was leaving
Pack my bag up, sick of home
Never homesick down that road
In my room by the moon with no ceiling
[Verse 10]
I was going up the coast
In a minivan that broke
Pack my bag up, sick of home
In my room by the moon with no ceiling
