All alone in the glass house Lie awake 'til the sun's out Pink sky when you come down M3 in the driveway Caffeine for the heartache Never wanna have it my way Yeah, I f*ck up and lose control Burned so many bridges, got nowhere to go Bitches got these motives like Anna Nicole I'm smoking cigarettes alone until it burn a hole In my lungs, in my soul, in my denim coat Same place I'ma keep that knife if I'ma slit my throat This shit ugly, I was just with Nipsey, now he ghost They even got my homie Pete out here, like, f*ck the jokes Damn All alone in the glass house (just keep it going) Lie awake 'til the sun's out Pink sky when you come down Sometimes I wanna fuckin' scream or run away, I don't know Ayy, life's been hard since seventeen I've been through hell, I think I'm somewhere in-between Caught in purgatory, I could paint the scene Everything turned to a nightmare from a dream, look Wish Lil Peep and me had spoke, but I can't get that back Just came from Pittsburgh, damn, I'll miss my homie Mac Yeah, last time I got off the stage, I looked Chester in the face But now he gone, and ain't no going back, uh Why don't you throw me in the damn flame? Bury me in gold chains Throw me in the damn flame I'm waitin' on the rain to come and wash it all away Why don't you throw me in the damn flame? Bury me in gold chains Throw me in the damn flame Lately, I've been sick of livin' and nobody knows how I'm really feelin' I always hated to smile, but it keep what is killing me hidden inside I didn't sign up to be the hero, but I don't want to wind up a villain I put my daughter to bed, then attempted to kill myself in the kitchen Yeah, I should've screamed, but nobody listened So I passed out with the blood dripping In this glass house, feelin' like a prison Me and death keep tongue-kissing I just fell out with my lil' bro The life getting to us, the drink getting to us, the drugs getting to us It's highway to hell and everybody knew What the f*ck were we doing? I'm feeling like Why don't you throw me in the damn flame? Bury me in gold chains Throw me in the damn flame I'm waitin' on the rain to come and wash it all away Why don't you throw me in the damn flame? Bury me in gold chains Throw me in the damn flame All alone in the glass house Lie awake 'til the sun's out Pink sky when you come down M3 in the driveway Caffeine for the heartache Never wanna have it my way
