Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I just wanna live in the booth while you destroy this truth for me
I'm just living proof that you could take my soul from me
Oh, please, I just wanna be loved
Oh, please, I need someone to trust
Oh, please, I just wanna be free
[Verse 2]
How you tryna preach if you ain't on your deen?
How you tryna reach if you ain't got a dream?
When they see me in the streets, they say 'BK you're a king'
Not a prince, I got older, Camden Town soldier
Got the gems on me (Follow me, follow me)
They'll invade my free (Colony, colony)
Rather die on my feet (Than to live on my knees)
It's amazing, it's amazing how we got here in the first place
Only just got here, now we're first place
Futuristic immigrant, came a day later
Woke up surrounded by caucasian
[Verse 3]
On paper, might make it and be free (Be free)
In Paris with Virgil at LV (Uh-huh)
Peng Palace, I like it, it's on fleek (It's on me)
I've been working all week, take the shackles off me, I'm free
[Verse 4]
I just wanna live in the booth while you destroy this truth for me
I'm just living proof that you could take my soul from me
Oh, please, I just wanna be loved
Oh, please, I need someone to trust
Oh, please, I just wanna be free
[Verse 5]
Are we even free if we ain't got the keys?
How you tryna beef me but ain't got the means?
If I see, see, see, you might see him through his beam
I need peace, I'm a hypocrite, karma I'ma live with it
I'm on DND, we need peace, need a lot of it
Hide and seek when we need, you ain't nowhere
Hope we reap when we leave 'cause it's only fair
OnlyFans only way that she's getting hers
And I ain't mad 'cause her feet cost her both legs
Control-Alt-Delete, now you're frozen
Keep a dream with me 'cause it's potent
All these enemies hurt my progress
I can never be a slave to a moment
Meet me at the MoMA, show went for a long time
Barely even shown her, may need to be online
Freedom, we ain't never tasted, yeah
[Verse 6]
I just wanna live in the booth while you destroy this truth for me
I'm just living proof that you could take my soul from me
Oh, please, I just wanna be loved
Oh, please, I need someone to trust
Oh, please, I just wanna be free
[Verse 7]
I just wanna live in the booth while you destroy this truth for me
I'm just living proof that you could take my soul from me
Oh, please, I just wanna be loved
Oh, please, I need someone to trust
Oh, please, I just wanna be free
[Verse 8]
I just wanna live in the booth while you destroy this truth for me
I'm just living proof that you could take my soul from me
Oh, please, I just wanna be loved
Oh, please, I need someone to trust
Oh, please, I just wanna be free
