I’m in my sweatpants, and some vans, try advance, through the bullshit
Won’t you let me be your champion?
I see my chance from the stands they just chant for the cool kids, but
I won’t ever be a championnow
Verse 1:
Bitch don’t kill my vibe
I been trying to write
I be in the studio, every single night
Race against the time
Still don’t close my eyes
This place is a jungle girl, I just try survive
Through the heights and obscurity
This vibe isn’t new to me
Weaving through the commentary
Deaf to all the scrutiny
If we really make it out
I won’t need security
I been feeling rich as long as everyone is true to me
Chorus:
I’m in my sweatpants, and some vans, try advance, through the bullshit
Won’t you let me be your champion?
I see my chance from the stands they just chant for the cool kids, but
I won’t ever be a champion
‘Cos I’m just cooling’ having fun with it
‘Cos I’m just cooling having fun with it
Just so you know I better run with it
And I just pray you’re never done with it
Done with it
Verse 2:
Shit sounds kinda sad
I’m just such a drag
Dorky ness and awkwardness
That’s my fucking brand
Me, Jake and our dogs
That’s my fucking band
Irony in all of this
Is that we think you’re bland
White kid from the burbs is still convinced that he can rap
Every beat is trap but never grew up in no trap
Hipsters move to Brunswick and they think they’re fuckin’ rad
Praying that I’ll quake but I’m just sticking to the plan, hey!
Chorus x 1
Bridge:
I said
I, been, at this party way too long, and
I’m having trouble finding my way home
But please don’t think that I’m lingering around
Just so I can be seen with an 'in' crowd
She said
I, been, at this party way too long, and
I’m having trouble finding my ride home
But please don’t think that I’m lingering around
Just so I can be seen with an 'in' crowd
Outro:
Look, I ain’t at the top, I ain’t at the top
But I know what I’m not, I know what I’m not
How come we don’t talk, how come we don’t talk?
There’s nothing they can say till I get everything I want
Everything I want, everything I want
Everything I want, everything I want
Everything I want, everything I want
Everything I want, everything I want
