Blackbear
Take a little bit of this, girl
I will show you what I'm on
It's not the beginning of something I lit and
It feels like we're living too fast to fall asleep
Take a little hit of this, girl
I will show you the way tonight
And I promise

That this could be everything you needed
This could be everything you dreamed of
And I, won't waste a minute, the time that were livin'
I won't waste a day 'less I'm wasting my days with you
I won't waste a day 'less I'm wasting my days with you
I won't waste away 'less I'm wasting away with you
Yeah oh, yeah oh

Devon Baldwin
Yeah, let it in, let it be, babe
This is everything you need baby
We have all this time to waste
I won't even make you wait
So just come and lay with me
And I will show you how
I can show you now
Take a hit and let it out
'Cause there's a method to my madness
All you need's a little practice
Follow me baby
You don't have to say a thing
Keep your eyes closed
We can live in a reverie
Breathe just a little deeper
There's no better feeling than now
And I promise

Blackbear
That this could be everything you needed
This could be everything you dreamed of
And I, won't waste a minute, the time that were livin'
I won't waste a day 'less I'm wasting my days with you




I won't waste a day 'less I'm wasting my days with you
I won't waste away 'less I'm wasting away with you

''i won't waste a day unless i'm wasting my days with you''

@BrisW0xiiz69

Ado S that's nice but where is the drop?

@bigusdickus3068

Bris W (0xiiz) Good music doesn't need a drop, my friend.

@Populon993

That's actually a rather deep line, if you think about it O.o
Like "be active, be productive, don't waste your precious time. Until you find this certain someone you can chill a day or two with together."
Sorry, if this part already came through....just woke up, brain still is a bit slow^^

@SurfTheMusic

Populon993 That's actually really profound. Good catch, didn't see that myself :)

@TheBrutalWaffle

SurfTheMusic There is nothing profound or deep about that line. Why is everyone so pretentious nowadays?

im so glad my relationship with my exgf ended so shittily to the point where all my music reminded me of her and caused me to explore other tastes of music. Blackbear soothes the soul and remedies the heart.

@alexismarie2585

"Shittily." I love you😂

@weabooofuckboy3351
