Memory Lane
L.O.L. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing's the same
Searching for a person to blame
Learning with age
My demons wanna come out to play
But they in a cage
Fueled by depression and rage
Sorrow and pain
I'm running away
But I think that it's time for a change
A brand new slate
The Ice thin but still I skate
I Guess I'm brave
Or maybe it's the drugs taking over all this pain
I don't need an umbrella I guess I'm used to the rain
The way I act out in public you'd think I do it for the fame
But I'm true to the music my nigga this is not a game
Point to my wrist in the clutch and everybody loving my wave
I tried to work a 9-5 and that shit was slavery
But I stuck to my grind went to work and made it pay for me
These niggas gone hate, want me dead say they gone pay for me
And so I stay strapped wit that blick it ain't no catchin me
The woman the weed and the weather that shit the recipe
I carried my talents back to Lakeland think that was made for me
I still got a piece of my city won't stay away from me
You ask me how I'm doin inside it's day to day for me
My mama told me to watch my lungs they fading away
I smoke an ounce a day to keep depression away
Woods glass or wax which one should I choose today
I'm in love wit all the drugs they keep the pain away
It's like with every other hit I see a brighter day
Either that or them xannys they take the pain away
I been sippin so much purple turned my liver grey
Tryina fill this void but honestly too much fucking space
I been movin state to state I'm tryna find my place
Fucked around and found a super model give me face
Movin in this chally you would think I'm on the chase
150 on the dash but this is not a race
I'm on my own level
Yuh
can't nobody take my place
I need me a new bezel
Yuh
Fuck that shit I need a wraith
It's Petal to the metal
Yuh
Put my mom in new a space
I got it out the gutter
Yuh
I got Steak all on my plate
Fuck nigga you don't want static
Yuh
Pull up on me and my niggas gone spazz
I got skeletons in my closet
yuh
I don't GB but my entourage move when I move so don't to touch my Patek
Yuh
Don't be mistaken I keep that bitch on me them bullets they fly like lightening
I ain't really in to fightin naw
Me I rather I just knock em off
Shoot like curry I like to ball
And my glock hold 30 and all
Legal wit papers ain't dirty at all
Won't lose a wink about murdering y'all
You niggas pussy you fertile and all
I am not worried bout none of you niggas you niggas is goofy
What's wrong wit y'all
My mama told me to watch my lungs they fading away
I smoke an ounce a day to keep depression away
Woods glass or wax which one should I choose today
I'm in love wit all the drugs they keep the pain away
It's like with every other hit I see a brighter day
Either that or them xannys they take the pain away
I been sippin so much purple turned my liver grey
Tryina fill this void but honestly too much fucking space
