I'm going anway
I'm going anway yeah

I don't care if it's a red light
I'm going anyway
I took one too many
Now I cannot feel my face
Shadow getting heavy
I think that I need a break
Don't know where I've been lately yeah (Going MIA)

Seventeen with a dream to get rich by myself yeah
Trappin' out the basement hardly worrying bout my health yeah
These hoes they say the love you but will switch up for some clout
And I do too many drugs people say that I need help

But I've been livin' well
Ferragamo on my belt buckle
Coolin' by myself you know that I stay one up on 'em
Don't tell me you love me girl until I can tell
And I know that you think that I ain't bein' fair
But you is just my ex girl I don't even care
But you know Imma miss all of the memories we share
You know I hate the lies thats why I'm getting high
I'm barely getting by suicide been on my mind

I don't care if it's a red light
I'm going anyway
I took one too many
Now I cannot feel my face
Shadow getting heavy
I think that I need a break
Don't know where I've been lately yeah (Going MIA)

I've been stressing too much
I think I need a break
I've been tested too much
I think I need some space
I loved you and I fucked you
Now I just drink and get baked
You fucked with my brain
And changed my life
I don't know if I can love again
Late night thinkin' bout her
Bottled up all of my pain
And it drives me insane
Getting your love must be a boss level
My life's just a game
And I don't wanna live
If Imma live my life in pain

I don't care if it's a red light
I'm going anyway
I took one too many
Now I cannot feel my face
Shadow getting heavy




I think that I need a break
Don't know where I've been lately yeah (Going MIA)
