Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Lovely day to go out my way
To think of you every minute, aye
Make me question if you appreciate
When it seem you ain't thinking the same
Shit get ugly but otherwise I'm fine
Been hiding what others wanna find
'Cause what if it drove us out our minds?
[Verse 2]
I've seen all of my heroes become human
I hope that you recognize
Although I live a wild dream, I am not God
Just feel something, anything but indifferent
Some of my clothes designer, some of them bitches thrifted
My main mission was simple, be listened to
Try to dig deeper like getting an interview
I guess I never took the proper time to introduce
Myself to the many fans and the kindred souls
That resonated with a kid who is
The fly ghetto empath anxious poet
In bright yellow, might bag her without speaking
I'm like antisocial meets outspoken
[Verse 3]
She said that you helped me more than you know
'Cause I was on the verge of a manic episode
I heard her out the best I could, but yo
It's crazy how many stories people claim that you're voicing
I was vocally sober till I buried my brothers
They did everything to knock us, got lifted together
When the smoke cleared, noticed I was still in the buffer
Between being a superstar and being next to the hustle
I made a living off of lessons that I learned from my uncle, yeah
Taught me to see the bigger picture, it come with a price
And I don't mean trade like I'm talking bout munyuns
But I wouldn't trade that shit for nothing
'Cause it took some being up late (Yeah)
What ya on? What's the update? (Yeah)
Get your fucking hands up
Yeah
'Cause if it's love here, you must say it
[Chorus]
Like sweet morning dew
Everytime I vibe with you
We make it plain to see
This shit feels like everything
Can I ask more of you?
This is what I'm resorting to
And I ask the same for me
This shit feels like everything
[Chorus]
Like sweet morning dew
Everytime I vibe with you
We make it plain to see
This shit feels like everything
[Refrain]
Hey, yeah
Hey, yeah
Hey, yeah
Hey
[Verse 4]
Look, lovely day to
Ain't nobody thinking 'bout you
But I think of you every minute, aye
Make me question if you appreciate
When it seem you ain't thinking the same
Shit get ugly but otherwise I'm fine
Hiding what others wanna find
'Cause what if it drove us out our minds?
I guess every painting has a price
[Refrain]
Hey, yeah
Hey, yeah
Hey, yeah
Hey
[Outro]
I guess every painting has a price
