Milestone

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Whenever you get the instructions Whenever you get that eruption Whenever you get the conviction Whenever you lose the corruption Whatever you bring to the table Whatever you're willin' and able to do Whenever you wanna be stable Try bein' a little more willin' and able than you give a shit Take a minute and work at it Take a ticket and wait a second And straighten out this crooked, wicked picket fence Pickin' up trash in the front yard And the backlash is a lack of attention inside the house You need attention inside the house [Pre-Chorus 1] You need affection inside the house You need reflection inside the house But there's no mirrors inside the house You need reflection. You need reflection, ugh [Chorus 1] Section by section – layer by layer Problems on the inside Un-package the players and the naysayers Sayin' all the naysayin' Playin' all their games Hidin' all their real faces from the public come out [Post-Chorus] Chalk it up as another milestone Yeah, yeah [Verse 2] Comin' out harder second time around, bound for greatness Wearin' out everybody lined up to body all the bases The moral, the lack of morality, itchin', and scratchin' Bitchin', and lackin' the value to even invest in a sure thing Weedin' out all the stranger things High-minded, kid-approved, blindsided Step into black jackets, dust swirls Livin' in the upside-down world Flack jackets, limo cars, gold bars, cut pearls Celebrity all from a selfie We're livin' in the upside-down world [Pre-Chorus 2] You want affection inside the house You need reflection inside the house But there's no mirrors inside this house You need reflection. You need reflection, ugh [Chorus 2] Section by section – layer by layer Problems on the inside Un-package the players and the naysayers Sayin' all the naysayin' Playin' all their games Hidin' all their real faces from the public Section by section – layer by layer Problems on the inside Un-package the players and the naysayers Sayin' all the naysayin' Playin' all their games Hidin' all their real faces from the public come out [Bridge] You need affection inside the house You need reflection inside the house But there's no mirrors inside the house You want reflection inside the house You want affection inside the house You need reflection inside the house But there's no mirrors inside this house You need reflection. You need reflection, ugh [Chorus 3] Section by section – layer by layer Problems on the inside Un-package the players and the naysayers Sayin' all the naysayin' Playin' all their games Hidin' all their real faces from the public Section by section – layer by layer Problems on the inside Un-package the players and the naysayers Sayin' all the naysayin' Playin' all their games Hidin' all their real faces from the public come out [Outro] Chalk it up as another milestone Yeah Chalk it up as another milestone
