lyrics

Wake up, your mother is calling
Wake up, your record is broken
Wake up, your band is rehearsing
Wake up, your name is unspoken

I'm like a monster, I'm all up in the cut
I spit diamonds, y'all rough, surf's up
I hang ten when I go back to the future and I start again
Y'all sheepish, I be the shepherd I'm gonna take you to the spot, leopard
Why can't it be easy to assuage you? I'm 1997 in this bitch gonna page you
I'm trying to wake up, I can't breathe
Something pressing down on my chest when I'm trying to rest
It's either or, one, two, three, four
You hear a knock coming from the basement door
When you're on the fourth floor and it shouldn't be there, should it
Nah

Oh, I don't mind it
Wishing it all away
Oh, I don't mind it
Wishing it all away

Wake up, your baby is crying
Wake up, your monster is near
Wake up, your cup's overflowing
Wake up, the future is here

Your mind is revolting, your body is tingling
Your chickens are molting, your house guests are mingling
The army is calling, the police are here
The field man is stirring, the neighbors are fleeing
The monster can smell you, the wolf's in your bed
It's all in your head

Oh, I don't mind it
Wishing it all away

I'm in the cut like origami when you call me mommy
Y'all be salty, salami
I'm overextended, going round the bend
When my future self comes back and she tells me how it ends, uh
I'm on FaceTime, double chin I go through space-time and try again, uh
There's no angle, I'm trying to explain the pain
So take my body, take my heart, throw my brain away
It's soft tissue, I feel your heartbeat
I'm gonna miss you, sitting in your car seat
Stupid flow, I gotta go I'm gonna make a sandwich, see you at home
Caesar salad, no croutons, I go to work with my steel toe boots on
Parmesan, creamy dressing
Camfam, seven-pound blessing
