VERSE 1: JAY]
I been confl icted, constricted, restricting myself to grow
the million ways that could’ve changed me, I wouldn’t 
know
just went where I was told go,
till me and my growth got stopped by the ends of every 
road
without the knowledge or faith that’s needed to make a 
leap 
without the imagination to get me outta my seat
without the energy that’s needed to carry all of my burdens through the rivers and creeks 
over hills with an angle too steep
it ain’t that deep, is all they wrote
the sole thing that I have noted that’s been fl oating on 
my intellect
ready to make amends with myself from the future, 
say that I regret I haven’t crashed any sooner
catching ’s, could say i’m hardly ever awake
grown afraid of everything that I put down on my plate
and I’m done with it, done with it, don’t wanna wait
today, I die in LA
[CHORUS: WILLEM]
there’s nothing standing in my way
speed through traffi c on the interstate
life moves fast, caught up in the race
fl at tire, backfi re, crash
tell myself i’m okay
‘cause honestly i ain’t got time to waste
no 9 to 5, it’s night and day
i don’t care if i break
i got dreams to chase
i’m on a ride, can’t hit the breaks
will i arrive one day
or will i die in LA?
[VERSE 2: JAY]
I got fright to return to the country that I come 
from
cause the place that my headspace be in, be a 
bomb one
elevated, energized, I radiate it
put explosives to the walls, they been detonated 
what once was desolated; prospering, swimming 
in growth
so on top of my shit it’s like I’m
swimming in gold
with all friends no foes, no cracks in the code,
no cons just pros, in control and it shows
these stories were never told but now they bout 
to be
cus I feel comfortable with all of the things that 
been surrounding me
and see, I love to see it but I’m prepared for the 
fall
cus I know I‘ma lose it all
catching ’s, could say I’m hardly ever awake
grown afraid of everything that I put down on my 
plate
and I’m done with it done with it don’t wanna wait
today, I died in LA
chorus
[BRIDGE: WILLEM]
come back alive in LA?
will I die in LA?
come back alive in LA?
chorus
‘cause honestly I ain’t got time to waste
no 9 to 5, it’s night and day
I don’t care if i break
I got dreams to chase
I’m on a ride, can’t hit the breaks
will I arrive one day
or will I die in LA?
[CHORUS: JAY]
dreamin’
all night, all day I don’t sleep
gravity don’t exist ‘round here 
I can’t get off my feet
so why won’t you 
blow the dust off my surface
fi x me up and give me purpose 
even if I don’t need it?
‘cause you caught me on a good day
[VERSE 1: WILLEM]
laying still
taking pills
just to get out of bed
I’m missing thrills 
can not feel
‘cause I’m light in my head
not paying bills
way too chill, wish I got fi re instead
but on the real
nothing feels like it’s posing a threat
every day feels the same
I stopped looking ahead
a long time ago I was sure
this was my path
I wanna be led
I wanna be taken away
tears to be shed
but I don’t feel nothing
you just caught me on a good day
and I’m just feeling like a bootleg version of myself
should approach it in a new way
new pace, true friends
losing all my loose ends
foolish, acting like it’s easy to be fooled with
I gotta take it seriously, seriously
this shit is fucking killing m
