Chase
D.Mave Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I been feeling I’m becoming a villain
Sticking my nose in business with no business in sniffing
Sticking my dick in women no intent of committing
Ripping apart the image the internet done invented
Sipping up all the liquor spitting on all the critics
Cooling into the winter chilling until I’m finished
Some are thinking I’m honest some are thinking I’m sinning
You can believe all them, soon my career is springing

My flow seasoned
Soul like old geezers
Coast to coast pleasing
From New York to those with gold fever
Bars too complex buy you a code reader
I gotchu coming back for that white I’m a coke dealer
Cracks in psyche, hole in my soul
I'm bouta go deep, Adele where I roll
I'm saying Hello to opportunity knocking
And deuces to the plans i used to be plotting
Lets go
I’m tired of running away
From the life I crave
I’m here to stay
I’m here to stay
Cause this is the chase
I’m here to stay
This is the chase
Ain’t running away
Ain't running away
Never been me
But I’m starting to
Break the model that i found myself caught into
Different person every season like a Doctor Who
My reflection an imposter too
I used to do what I gotta do
Now I do what I wanna do
I wanna be the big dog, Marmaduke (Woof!)
Mama dukes on the phone crying “boy, what’s wrong with you ?”
The songs are cool but I don’t really like this part of you
I picked up on the keys the at six
Ten later I threw strings into the mix
First beat seventeen I was fixed
Heartbeat tick to the kicks
First verse from lips it was a brick
But I was feeling like a knick
Now I'm sick like need Nyquil and a Vicks
I'm killing so much I write wills for these kids
Zero to a hunnid quick my wheels leaving skids
I’m tired of running away
From the life I crave
I’m here to stay
I’m here to stay
I’m tired of running away
From the life I crave

I’m here to stay
I’m here to stay
