Crumble
Kevin Abstract Lyrics

You got room in your phone
Asking the listener if they have enough space in their life for him as a distraction

For one more distraction
Acknowledging that he may be seen as just another temporary distraction

Wonderful times
Reminiscing about a pleasant past

Time
Recognizing the passage of time

Is moving too slow for me to distract you
Feeling that time is passing slowly and unable to hold the attention of the listener

I need to get back to you
Expressing a desire to reconnect with the listener

All my friends, all my dogs that I got back home
Referring to his close friends and associates from his hometown

We would look up at the sky, we was ten years old
Recalling a pleasant childhood memory shared with his friends

All my brothers keep and let these demons show
Acknowledging that he and his close friends have their own demons to deal with

Southern blood run deep so that genius grow
Recognizing the influence of his Southern upbringing on his artistic talent

From the trees I hang, so low it go
Feeling low and perhaps hopeless in a difficult situation

Best I wake up from my slumber, yeah dog I know
Realizing that he needs to snap out of a negative state of mind

These petty motherfuckers don't know 'bout big Mo
Expressing frustration with those who don't appreciate his work or talent

Rest in peace my nigga Luke this a test, it's here for fo' sho'
Honoring a deceased friend while acknowledging the struggle he is currently facing

Brother Chris put me on and I will never take that from him
Acknowledging the support of someone who helped him start his career

No matter how many times he called me "faggot" in the morning
Recognizing that while he has a strong bond with the person who helped him, there have been hurtful moments in their relationship

Best thing 'bout being mortal was seeing the white big storm
Reflecting on a positive experience he had in life

It's not my fault, like I can't really explain it
Feeling misunderstood and unable to express himself properly

Became the hood's favorite, I'm not ever a main bitch
Achieving success but feeling like he still hasn't reached the highest level of fame or recognition

My nigga, I'm just like SZA, they listen so I just deliver
Comparing himself to another musician who has achieved success and saying that he will continue to deliver music that resonates with his audience

They found out my name was Clifford, I hide it sometimes I'm lying
Revealing his true name and admitting that he sometimes feels the need to hide or lie about it

I'm tired of fucking crying, and hiding behind the dummy camera
Expressing exhaustion with feeling emotional and vulnerable, but continuing to put himself out there for others to see

The weight on my shoulders, I just can't get over
Feeling a heavy burden that he can't shake off

He won't take me back and they don't know how hard
Feeling rejected by someone and feeling like others can't understand how much it hurts

They don't know how hard (They don't know how hard)
Repeatedly emphasizing that others can't comprehend his struggle

They don't know how hard it is
Saying again how difficult his situation is

I feel like crumbling
Expressing a feeling of emotional collapse

And I feel like crumbling
Repeating the previous line for emphasis

And I feel like crumbling outside of your window
Feeling like he is about to break down and wanting to be close to the listener

I feel better with you
Expressing that being with the listener makes him feel better

Telling you now, don't tell on the crew
Asking the listener to keep their conversations private

Bitch, a new high, they tell you to move
Having achieved a new level of success but feeling pressure to keep moving forward

Hollywood, I wish my brother would shoo
Feeling uncomfortable or unwelcome in the Hollywood scene

Take me back to, my other issue
Longing for a previous situation or problem

We plastered with you, feet on the roof
Recalling a moment spent with someone while sitting on a roof

Drugs and more violence, they shot up the place
Referencing a violent or dangerous situation involving drugs

My bro was the instant and I was the glue
Describing the roles he and his friend played in a difficult situation

I don't think that they will ever get through
Feeling like others can't understand or relate to his experiences

You see me standing there, heavy weight shoe
Feeling weighed down or burdened by his current situation

Me and my bro ain't never gon' choose
Asserting that he and his friend will always stick together

We on the loose, hands out the roof
Feeling reckless and carefree

Hand me my Dro, I hand you your bag
Referring to exchanging items with a friend

All of my siblings end up like they dad
Feeling a sense of inevitability that his family members will follow in his father's footsteps

I remember what them charger was like
Recalling a specific car model

I don't want to be the burden tonight
Not wanting to impose his troubles on anyone else
