Lyrics

[Verse 1] Life is crazy sometimes Give a lot of days of my life up to my haters but I'ma make this one mine Take a couple photographs of my pretty family in the bright and hazy sunshine When the aperture's perfect It's the golden hour, gonna pull the power From the sun and its lavender surface Got a new lens I got a lot of family but few friends I know that's cliché shit to say But reality rap is a challenge, cause facts are facts and can't go many different ways Fuck it, here we are It ain't guaranteed that you'll be here tomorrow You live life like you got an extra day to do shit and you'll die in a leap year, it's harsh So do it all today Or in 20 years you're gonna look at life like you threw it all away Ain't no guarantees but I guarantee If you have a little veggies and some juice you'll calm your day I don't wanna lie to you for the fame or the money Maybe I could write the truth a longer way I've had writer's block to this beat for a full year Fuck it, I'ma do this song today Yupp! Gonna finish it and love it Then I mix it and I dub it Then I ship it to the public If they're dissin' it then fuck it Doesn't matter, my opinion is I'm rippin' it And crushing it, the dissonance is fuckin' sick All the critics, they can suck a dick Every single fuckin' day I'm gettin' up at 6 Then I feed my kids, then I hit this studio Then I spew a flow so beautiful, you should know [Chorus] The universe is expanding I don't give a fuck I'm drinkin' all day All the dreams I have are in color Even though my memories are all grey Man, the whole damn world is burnin' But you'd never know because you're too busy starin' at your phone Only way that I can feel happiness is when I'm by myself standing here alone Just me til' the casket drops Just me til' the casket drops Just me til' the casket drops Just me til' the casket drops [Verse 2] Not a day goes by where I don't think about how the world's all fucked up All it takes is a car wreck, cancer virus Or a member of ISIS on a random Tuesday with a gun goin' "Buck-buck!" And you outta here You don't know what second, what day, what month, what year But one day, you are gonna disappear And 99% of the planet ain't even gonna care Except the people at your funeral who clap and cheer As they reflect on your life with laughs and tears When they drop your casket and the energy leaves your body And it supernovas through the atmosphere And it travels years through a black-hole Where time gets so slow it stops, then reverses Now you're turnin' back the years Goin' back in time To the days when you were just a curious kid with a fragile mind Layin' on your back Looking up at the night sky, wondering "What the Hell is past the line of the solar system?" And you're thinking to yourself "Geez, this is an incredible life," As you try to look deep into the delicate night Smoking weed wonderin' if you're inhaling it right And you wanna know: "Do distant planets have intelligent life?" Well of course they do! And they might have big red eyes or big green thumbs, or skin light blue But a lot of them are just like you They prolly spend half their day just starin' at a mobile phone Because they feel like in the universe they're so alone Well guess what, you know they're wrong This song is over, gone! [Chorus] The universe is expanding I don't give a fuck I'm drinkin' all day All the dreams I have are in color Even though my memories are all grey Man, the whole damn world is burnin' But you'd never know because you're too busy starin' at your phone Only way that I can feel happiness is when I'm by myself standing here alone Just me til' the casket drops Just me til' the casket drops Just me til' the casket drops Just me til' the casket drops [Spoken]
