[00:00.00] I need love
[00:01.82] You need love
[00:04.30] Give me love
[00:06.37] And I'll give you my love
[00:10.34]
[00:28.79] They say thirty is the new twenty
[00:30.65] And twenty is the new thirty shit I guess
[00:32.82] Makes sense cause fifteen year olds seem twenty
[00:35.83] And twenty five year olds seem ten
[00:37.54] I used to drink away my paycheck
[00:39.89] Celebrate the mistakes I hadn't made yet
[00:42.52] Our generation isn't the best on safe sex
[00:45.03] We forget the latex becoming Planned Parenthood patients
[00:47.99] Synthetic heroin is the new basshead
[00:50.35] So much to escape fuck a straight edge
[00:52.67] Walk around looking through a fake lens
[00:54.97] Apps this good whose got time to make friends
[00:57.38] I wish I didn't care
[00:59.29] And cynical hipsters with long hair
[01:01.45] Cocaine problems like my music
[01:03.58] It's not my issue I can't solve it
[01:05.93] My flight has finally landed down
[01:10.40] And the ground has stopped moving all around
[01:16.04] Eyes open awake for the very first time
[01:22.44] We both forfeit this game of crime
[01:26.00] They say it's so refreshing to hear somebody on records
[01:27.62] No guns no drugs no sex just truth
[01:30.59] The guns that's America the drugs are what they gave to us
[01:32.67] And sex sells itself don't judge her till it's you
[01:35.34] Ah I'm not more or less cautious
[01:37.68] The rappers rapping bout them strippers up on the pole copping
[01:40.40] These interviews are obnoxious
[01:42.16] Saying that it's poetry is so well spoken stop it
[01:45.05] I grew up during Reaganomics
[01:47.41] When Ice T was out there runners killing cop shit
[01:49.78] Or Rodney King was getting beat on
[01:51.16] And they let off every single officer
[01:52.77] And Los Angeles went and lost it
[01:54.49] Now every month there is a new Rodney on Youtube
[01:56.76] It's just something our generation is used to
[01:59.12] And neighbourhoods where you never see a news crew
[02:01.59] Unless they're gentrifying white people don't even cruise through
[02:03.90] And my subconcious telling me stop it
[02:06.16] This is an issue that you shouldn't get involved in
[02:08.53] Don't even tweet R.I.P Trayvon Martin
[02:10.93] Don't wanna be that white dude million man marching
[02:13.45] Fighting for our freedom that my people stole
[02:15.61] Don't wanna make all my white fans uncomfortable
[02:18.03] But you don't even have a fucking song for radio
[02:20.01] Why you out here talkin race trying to save the fucking globe
[02:22.62] Don't get involved with the causes in mind
[02:24.94] White priveledge, white guilt at the same damn time
[02:27.25] So we just party like it's nineteen ninty nine
[02:29.82] Celebrate the ignorance while these kids keep dying
[02:31.99] My flight has finally landed down
[02:36.17] And the ground has stopped moving all around
[02:41.01] Eyes open awake for the very first time
[02:48.10] We both forfeit this game of crime
[02:51.68]
[03:00.75] I need love
[03:02.56] You need love
[03:05.22] Give me love
[03:07.49] And I'll give you my love
[03:12.32]
