Super Rich Kids (feat. Earl Sweatshirt) - Frank Ocean

Uh, off the strength I'm not as numb as I thought I'm broken links, my circle shrinking smaller Satellite revolve, my core is a cauldron Surrendered orbits Cross-check what's really real and what's performance Speak for self but wondering who else really on it Who's really all in? (Hello) Trouble calling My phone don't ping, I'm buzzed, leave me alone Truth with a stashed pocket for a lie The document is alive, I speak life Every border gets revised if dissolved With the fines what it's charged Haven't made up my mind if I'm assigned to the stars I slide when I walk I'm inside of the funk, trust She want up when it dump, it came from the sludge Involuntary, shooting foundations in studs Tears and snot bubbles, sob puddles I lay in the west spot, listen Let's not conflate, I give what I take It's the hunt, there is the chase Some talk like they never got punched in the face You can't see clearly now, don't come near me Wails of the weary, loop max infinite Draw me closer, damn near intimate And I'll give you a kiss The flyest and grown and sexy I came through over proofing the plastic Pepsi bottle, security didn't check me Skipped coat check, they playin' the oldies I'ma go 'head and get sweaty Plus saved the ten-piece It's hell up in Harlem so meet me 'cross 100 and 10th street If the tree's a bargain, bars that don't really tempt me I'm from where every car foreign and we drive 'em on empty (Zimbabwe) Bury me in a borrowed suit Give my babies my rhyme books but tell 'em "Do you" Give my enemies the good news, time flew We was probably brothers back then like TRU No jerseys, no durags, hard-bottom shoes Niggas tired of the foolishness No disrespect, it's a lotta mids in the room My pack loud, cut right through Kofi Annan in the booth so you ain't get in the stu' Sese Seko Mobutu if the DJ play something smooth (slide on 'em) It's a move, I don't dance but maybe tonight Maybe tonight I don't know her, and I don't even mind if it is the strobe light Live for the living I made chicken late night in my boxers burning up the kitchen She passed out right when I was done fixing I watch reruns in the dark; fingers and lips glistening Ooh, get 'em I'm so damn proud of myself I did this for you, G, alright? Been to there and back, tall tales tossed to the breeze We keep facts in the midnight wax, family tree sap Lightly through the leaves on familiar tracks I know it's real even when I'm feeling bad Resilient as they build to black She shimmy into the, yeah, that's consent gettin' established You only trash if you trash, I keep it simple and dynamic Trust the passage rites to life's chapters I have to write to find balance This game of telephone massive, I do what I have to with the fragments The madness method rampant these days, I let the panic pass me Featherweight, my heart was straight despite baggage Asymptomatic but I get sicker, the delays faster, faster Practicing practice in what I preach, keep pace The calcium on my teeth fade The streets are blazed with the anger, complacency and deceit create Ice sheet break, I couldn't weak, wait All I could say to the times I couldn't freeze frame, bleak fate You got so much to bleed to clean slate (I've got so much) The bag of tricks in my sleeve breaks Southpaw under the North Star, forcing all the league changes (I've got so-) Don't sleep baby (I've got so much, I've-) (I've got so much, I've-) (I've got so much)

I keep it, we back, yeah Ya dig? (Thinkin' 'bout) Yeah, yeah (Know what I'm sayin'?) Every nigga that, uh Every nigga that's trippin' around me serve as reminder that I gotta watch my step I keep it quiet as kept (Ayy, ayy) Yeah, I think I spent most of my life depressed (Most of my) Only thing on my mind was death (On my) Didn't know if my time was next (Next, yeah, yeah) Tryna refine this shit, I redefined myself First I had to find it (Uh) I couldn't find a friend, had to rely on my wits I be with Mike and Med (Mike, Med) Nowadays I be with Sage and with Six-press, ya dig? I'm in L.A. with Glen, please come and claim ya kid I cannot play with them (Yeah, yeah, whoa) Let's try a different approach out I celebrate with a toast Brodie, you know if you with me we homebound (Homebound) I need a city to hold down (Hold down) You niggas gave me a coast (Yeah) You went and gave me a cape (Cape) But that never gave me no hope (Hope, yeah, hope, hope) I found a new way to cope It ain't no slave in my soul But I keep the memories close by (Close by) Even when I hit a low (I hit a low) I still give thanks to the most high I can't do favors no more If you lame and you broke, and you waiting for cosign I take a plate to go Bread I could break with bro Noose on my chain is gold Tell me how you been faking the whole time? (Whole time) That's how surveillance go These niggas be playing for both sides This shit could take a toll There ain't no (Bro) There ain't no (Yeah) It ain't no place to (Nah) Yeah Yeah, yeah Mm-mm-hmm

Get dude turned to dinner quick You circus niggas, you turning into tricks I was making waves, you was surfing in 'em Dealing with the stomach pains just from birthing niggas' shit Cut the grass off the surface Pray the lawnmower blade catch the back of a serpent nigga shit Bitch Good grief, I been reaping what I sow Nigga, I ain't been outside in a minute I been living what I wrote And all I see is snakes in the eyes of these niggas Momma taught me how to read 'em when I look Miss me at the precinct getting booked Fishy niggas stick to eating off of hooks Say you eating, but we see you getting cooked, nigga I'm fleeting thoughts on a leash For the moment, high as fuck I been alone in my shit for the longest Snakes sliding in the street Mama taught me how to not be like the bodies lying in them Pigs, riding in 'em I'm a target, so it's hard to even eye me in 'em If he ain't dying for me, then I ain't riding with him There's no time for that Making sure my man wallet's straight like a collar When you eyeing that Thinking 'bout my grandmama, find a bottle I'ma wallow when I lie in that I just want my time and my mind intact When they both gone, you can't buy 'em back
