Drifting
G‐Eazy feat. Chris Brown & Tory Lanez Lyrics

Got this flight to London, I ain't pop no Xans for it
I took this flight to London, I didn't need any drugs to prepare for it

In case you was wonderin', I ain't even plan for it
Just so you know, I didn't even plan for this trip

I just left L.A, barely caught the plane
I just left Los Angeles, almost missed my flight

Fuckin' TSA, swear a nigga ran for it
The TSA at the airport was a hassle, I had to run through it

Ain't used to this fame shit
I'm not accustomed to all this fame

This you-all-know-my-name-shit
This situation where everyone knows my name

Me, I'm just the same kid
Despite the fame, I'm still the same person

That fucked around and made it
The one who messed around and made it big

Fucked over my main chick
I messed up my main girlfriend

Damn she was the main chick
Wow, she was my most important girlfriend

Thinkin' 'bout the game
Reflecting on the game (relationship) I played

I shouldn't have played, but I played it
I shouldn't have participated, but I did anyway

And now I'm missin' your love
Now, I'm feeling the absence of your love

I'm faded once again, I don't know where I am
I'm feeling intoxicated again, I'm lost in my current state

But I just know I'm driftin' far from you
But I'm aware that I'm becoming distant from you

I'm tryna keep my head strong, but my heart won't
I'm trying to stay mentally strong, but my emotions won't allow it

Just let me grow away from you
Just allow me to move further away from you

Don't you know we're driftin' off, driftin' off?
Don't you realize that we're drifting apart?

I know you think that it's my fault we're fallin' off
I know you believe that it's my fault our relationship is failing

All this hope and disregard, driftin' off
All this hope we had and now we're slowly losing it

I know you think there ain't no fault, we fall apart
I know you think there's no blame, but we're still falling apart

I blame it on the distance
I attribute our problems to the physical distance between us

Why I'm fuckin' with these bitches
That's why I'm involved with other women

These numbers in my phone
These contacts in my phone

A text pops up, she's like, 'Who is this?'
I receive a text, and she asks, 'Who is this?'

You probably got a mistress
You probably think I have another woman

Probably every week it switches
Probably every week it's someone different

Now is this cause for concern?
Is this a reason to be worried?

And should I be suspicious?
Should I be suspicious about your behavior?

I'm overseas trippin', a million miles away
I'm overseas, going through a rough time, a million miles away from you

And she's still in L.A., my mom's out in the Bay
And she's still in Los Angeles, while my mom is in the Bay Area

And these overseas minutes add up, that's a lot to pay
And the cost of international calls adds up, it's expensive

I can pay it, yeah I know, but it's the excuse I say
I can afford it, yeah I know, but it's the excuse I use

She's been tryna track me down
She's been trying to find me

I feel like I'm cattin' now
I feel like I'm evading her like a cat

Dodgin' her when she's the one
Avoiding her even though she's the one I should be with

I'm out here trippin', actin' wild
I'm out here making mistakes, acting reckless

Start to wonder if I've changed
I'm starting to question if I've changed

I'm like how could that be now?
I wonder how that could be the case now?

Would these bitches be here really
Would these other women be here with me if not for my fame?

If I wasn't rappin' now?
If I weren't a rapper now?

I'm just so conflicted
I'm feeling really conflicted

It's been so long since we've kicked it
It's been a while since we spent time together

And I can't lie, I've missed it
And I can't deny it, I've missed it

But somewhere the current shifted
But something has changed in our dynamic

And now I'm somewhere else
And now I'm in a different place emotionally

Far away, feel like we drifted
Distant from each other, it feels like we've grown apart

Hard to face the facts
Difficult to accept the reality

I'm drinkin' to escape, and then get lifted
I'm drinking to escape my problems and then get high

Get swept under a rug, 'till I'm trippin' on a pile
I ignore my issues until they pile up and overwhelm me

Did it change, somethin' different for a while
Did something change between us, something different for some time

Yeah, we grew apart with time
Yeah, we became distant as time went on

We ain't kicked it in a while
We haven't spent time together in a while

But I still think about you now
But I still think about you at the moment

Without you, see there's differences now
Without you, things have changed now

But shit happens, how could we have known?
But life happens, how could we have predicted this?

Nothin' can prepare us
Nothing can truly prepare us

From sleepin' at your parents, now to sold out shows in Paris
From sleeping at your parents' house, now to performing sold-out shows in Paris

To parties at my hotel ashin' blunts up off my terrace
To parties at my hotel where we smoke marijuana on the terrace

Tell me, how'd we ever come to live this careless?
Tell me, how did we end up living in such a reckless manner?

And now I'm missin' your love
And now I'm longing for your love
