Where
Tim And Eric Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I might slip death through the tips of my fingers
But you know we gots to see it through
Follow me I'll take you on a path you never seen
Follow me I'll teach you how to proper lucid dream
If I say I'm going well then I've already been
Man of my word the one thing they can't take from me
I know I'm worth gold in more than triple my own weight
I know that your stove won't fill up half what's on my plate
I know they might fold cause I know how much pressure pays
That's why my times I expensive pay attention to their ways
I might slip death through the tips of my fingers but you know we gots to see it through
We don't double back we stay 10 toes on the ground
We gon fly or we gon fall
Pride is a bitch but that bitch is a winner
My sasha fierce to my jigga
Oh no no no
I hope
Tomorrow is the best that it can be
I never believed in a plan b
If it don't go to plan then we sink where we stand
Oh and I pray
All I have ahead are my best days
Cause I never believe in a rest day
If it don't go to plan then we sink where we stand
We wasn't too privy to the privileged ones
Before we flex we make we can stretch out funds
Outside even as an introvert
Much rather go feel the flesh than double tap on insta first
We plan for the future all mistakes included like a camera with the bloopers
Oh yh this a movie
Though this non fiction
Feeling like a crack fiend
Minus drug addiction
Cause these bad habits gon make me sink way deeper than I need
Pride is a bitch and she got me on my knees
I don't want no sympathy
Plan A is the contingency
There can, never be no in between
I hope
Tomorrow is the best that it can be
I never believed in a plan b
If it don't go to plan then we sink where we stand
Oh and I pray
All I have ahead are my best days
Cause I never believe in a rest day
If it don't go to plan then we sink where we stand
I might slip death through the tips of my fingers
But you know we gots to see it through
I might slip death through the tips of my fingers
But you know we gots to see it through
Yeah Yeah
What are you so afraid of
Every risk I took it paid off
When you don't take no days off
It might looks like the trades off
But you still get your trade off
Everyone tryna reach Bezos
Me I'm just tryna squeeze all these minerals take it right back to Lagos
And my girl might need 2, 3 syllables more i'm wiping her name off
And my last name ain't smith or wesson but we still get this blaze off
All of my debts is paid off
All of my steps is catered to my feet
And tailored to my needs
If we end up taking detours it's just cause the tanks on E
And if you just follow my lead, we gon make it back it peace
We gon make it back in coin We gon make it back in seeds
And if we do sink where we stand
Then at least the grounds complete
Foundations where we lay
And a bed where we may sleep
Sink where we may stand, least the grounds complete
Foundations where we lay
And a bed where we may sleep
I hope
Tomorrow is the best that it can be
I never believed in a plan b
If it don't go to plan then we sink where we stand
Oh and I pray
All I have ahead are my best days




Cause I never believe in a rest day
If it don't go to plan then we sink where we stand

I wish they would focus on the merits of the prices themselves instead of character assassinations. At this rate I might as well just buy my prices online.

@thomasjenkins7506

i just go to bulk stores, where i can i can get premium prices at a discount.

@GnarDawgeh

Good job cheese flapperoo. I lolled so hard.

@jeremywoods770

I only buy family owned prices from fair trade rates

@mithrilld

You should watch out for online prices. Got a $29.99 off PriceList and when I figured out it was 0.001 BTC it was too late.

@yes7879

Live too close to Seattle so all the prices are organic and cruelty free
