Spaceman
D-Funk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spaceman, come back down to earth
Come back down for nothing, or come down to search
Too high can't reverse, these new thoughts disperse
Comeback down for nothing, come down to learn

Spaceman come back down to earth
Come back down for nothing or come down to search
This comedown is worse, the come up is first
The rest comes easy, this turns out to work

Rip a bowl, here's my thoughts, where's the ladle?
Inside scoop, man my minds unstable
(Woah)
Got food for thought, now your sitting at the table
In something wack, rip the tag, fuck the label
You're here for the narrative this ain't just a fable
I'mma making a killing, hope it doesn't end fatal
I'm a fucking helicopter y'all can barely cradle
I be scoring with the left and your rights a total fail

I'm over thots, but I'm twice as over my own thoughts
Its me who needs the golden calculator to unlock
A better mental spot, where my dreams aren't blocked
By persistence thoughts, of what I'm not

Thinking I can shake this off, until two paths cross
Head is in the clouds, my feet they walk
Mind exhausted cause it's genius lost
Uncontrolled, and at what cost?
(Ha)
Maybe I could be a poet
Write for the heart or anybody that broke it
As of now I'm Living, just enough to show it
I lived here and there it's hard living in the moment
Life's a lucid dream it's my duty to control it
The pajamas gon be itchy till I wear it a re sew it
The bongs still here, still here
So I rip it and reload it
So i rip, rip it and reload it

Spaceman come back down to earth
Come back down for nothing or come down to search
Too high can't reverse, these new thoughts disperse
Comeback down for nothing, or come back down to learn

Spaceman come back down to earth
Come back down for nothing or come down to search
This comedown is worse, the come up is first
The rest comes easy, this turned out to work

Beauty in the struggle, noted. I'm chosen
I'm ready for the ugly, my ego, imploded
Now my raps are super clean but they've barely been recorded

Theres distractions exposing, my lazy devotion
Worried about closing, or stupidly hoping
That maybe She loves me, but really it's hopeless
Because I'm lying and helpless
Lying and helpless
I'm Caught by the temptress
As if her approval is nothing but selfish
If she don't love me, then I love my self less
yeah, then i love my self less

Spaceman come back down to earth
Come back down for nothing, or come down to search
Too high can't reverse, these new thoughts disperse
I know this shit hurts, you know shits been worse

Spaceman come back down to earth
Come back down for nothing, or come down to search
This comedown is worse, the come up is first
The rest comes easy, this turns out to work

Acting calm, cause I'm totally focused
It'd probably overwhelm you if i was totally open
For you to be my muse, yeah I'm silently hoping
You can fix what I've learned from a marriage that's broken

See I've got Problems with deflection, should I mention
I'm projecting, come with good intentions
Upon reflection, I brought this on arrival
Man I'm always acting up when I start another spiral





Back down to earth
