A.W.O.L (feat. Ladi 6 & John Luafutu)

There's a place that I go and I feel

Like I don't wanna see anyone that I know

And I need to be left on my own

Be alone with my beat tape

I put it on and I just escape, I'm gone

Up in the basement in my home

On my own, in the zone

Tryna finish this song

I can hear somebody's tryna ring me up on the phone

Please just leave the message right after the tone

'Cause I'm not gonna answer y'all

You can ring till you're blue in the face

And I'm not gon' get back to ya

Unless you my manager

Otherwise, got no time to talk shit

You can call Robert Cavanar

Tryna get some downtime

Like a rad and a far from the questions they ask in the cameras

I sit with my pen and my pad and my beat tape

I put it on, and who'd have imagined a MC like me

At the top of the game

I'm unlockin' the chains

'Cause my friends turn to fiends

With crack rocks in they vein

And it's not gonna change, so I'm lost

In the pain, paid the cost

Of my fame, now I'm gone

There's a place that I go and I feel

Like I don't wanna see anyone that I know

And I need to be left on my own

Be alone with my beat tape

I put it on and I just escape, I'm gone

Go and I feel like I don't

One that I know and I need

Only alone with my beat tape

Put it on, then I just escape, I'm gone

And still this beat is on repeat in my basement

I'm pacin' back and forth

Tryin' to find inspiration

But words, they won't come to me

My mind is just fakin'

I put my favorite tape on and I try to escape

But then it starts comin' back to me

My pen, it starts racin'

My thoughts elevatin'

And take off like a spaceship

And now I'm on my way to my secret place

That I go when I feel like I don't wanna say shit

And don't wanna talk to make small conversations

So leave me to be in my secret location

I open my book and I find a new page

Take the phone off the hook

Have my phone disengaged

And I put my beat tape in the stereo, I push play

And I write down these words and it takes me away

You just got what your Pa seen me saw

I was here just before

But I'm not anymore

Now I'm gone

There's a place that I go and I feel

Like I don't wanna see anyone that I know

And I need to be left on my own

Be alone with my beat tape

I put it on and I just escape, I'm gone

There's a place that I go and I feel

Like I don't wanna see anyone that I know

And I need to be left on my own

Be alone with my beat tape

I put it on and I just escape, I'm gone

Go on, listen to my song

Stuck on rewind, me

I'm A.W.O.L and you won't find me

And you can try me

But no, you won't get through

And you can't even leave a message

Now my mailbox is full

Because I'm gone, listen to my song

Stuck and rewind me

I'm A.W.O.L and you won't find me

And you can try me

But no, you won't get through

And you can't even leave a message

Now my mailbox is full

Because I'm gone
