Those Who Live In A Glass City Lyrics - Daymeus

[Verse 1] 

Dayme be i-rate 

Like an inmate in a warm state, still, I'm so cold 

Rarely relate, this may be real late 

But will not go untold 

I hold weight with age, free associate 

And I should polish old flows 

But I just returned from back home 

From biting my tongue 

And I'm biting no more 

'Cept the necks of those who don't come correct 

I cum erect, so this gotta be hard 

You feel it's too far, then go for it 

Come out to LA, not speakin' to every extra 

Directed at many though (many though) 

Anyone feelin slighted, my sight had new perspective 

The second I stepped off the plane home 

Mama makin' me food while I 

Lie back and relax wit the lil guy, Connor 

Reminiscin' on all the parking lots, Hiawatha 

Fires, outings with Maygan or father 

How free you feel responsibility-free 

Such is a break, I suppose, I don't know, we (we) 

Get those so scarcely, then I think 

What if it ain't change? 

What if I still lived home? 

Full grown, yet immature, no movin' on 

So, I never flew to California 

Instead got a part time, but not while I'm in school 

Or pursuin' a path, just a part time, just to get high 

Powder, pill, or blunt, no side 

Passion, I'm irrational now, pi 

I'm ashin' ends in unwashed piles of fashion, hashin' out 

Where my day went, week went, my lifetime, no tell 

Of my tale, no, who care? Twitter, Facebook 

Faceless no-ones, oh, too real? Toledo? 

Or wait a sec 

What if I stayed and we worked it out, k? 

And what if I got her pregnant? 

And our timeline changed like that 

And what if I cracked 

Smacked her in the head, she fell right back 

And what if she stayed, and finally loved me back 

Or what if I cheated, skipped out on our little boys visitations 

To fuck holes of hoes, who really ain't shit 

You stayed at home, up late, sick, poor little Jayden 

Now, take in to consideration 

It's awfully tough for many kids to remain faithful in this city 

They chasin' tails wit no head, sit still and expect rent checks 

Not everybody in that glass hole, hmm 

Not many in the glass city, though 

That I fuck wit 

Felt fuckin' toxic there, wait 

What if I run up on this punk bitch 

He been eyein' me wrong at the park 

He, now, mackin' a hoe who denied me, nah, fuck 

Not thinkin it out no, no! 

Fuck rationality, just bought a gat 

My whole crew backin' me packin' 

Now, what if I did this weekly? Huh 

Yeah, that sound like a plan 

What if we all in the same boat, man? 

What if we sailin' in lifted merch 

And closin' stolen curtains to workin' for somethin worthy 

Hearses swervin', holdin' minds, entitled 

Birthed to curb our first, second, and third dream job 

And settle for scams 

No meddling kids for this sham (nah) 

What if I peeked at a mirror, epiphany 

In it I see the same me since before graduation 

What if I then bitched on the reg 'bout the place that I'm in 

But I did, not a thing 

Years fade out like the end of a play 

I'm sittin' there empty, alone, I've accomplished nothin' 

And everyone's moved on 'cept me 

Well, then I guess I'd be you 

Could've been you

[Bridge] 

Yeah, this city, it may be cracked 

And though, I know, I'll never go back 

I know it means little, considering 

I jumped ship, but 

This is all out of love, shit 

And I'm hopin' y'all love, it 

I am speakin' to Benjamin, Danie, and fam 

I know it's still home for y'all there, yes 

And it used to be mine, that's done 

Gotta find my own now, I don't trust 

I'm any closer out here 

And I got love for you, some of you, there and some I don't 

I hope you rest see yourself arrested 

I'm here, rested in music, it feels like 

Ya know (home)
