Straight to the top, rooftop glows. With a hand full of girls and they all so foreign. Brain so poisoned, rainbows flowing.
I usually dont like to spoon feed my audience, because I grew up idolizing story tellers who tell stories using symbolism, so it was in my nature to do the same.
Im the most boring person to talk to.
I went from staring at the same four walls for 21 years to seeing the whole world in just 12 months

I ain't scared of the fall / I've felt the ground before.

Staying in a hopeless and miserable situation doesn't make you loyal, it just makes you miserable.

You know me, but you don't know me. I give you what I want to give you. I relate to villains like that - but I'm not out to destroy the world.
I'm too full to swallow my pride
