Need to Know 歌詞
Washing out cigarettes in the bathroom
衛生間裡的吞雲吐霧
Should probably only give my opinion when I'm asked to
當被人問起的時候,我應該只給出自己的意見
I'm really good at telling the half truth but usually only when I have to
我還是挺擅長只告訴人們一部分真相的,但那也只是當我不得不說的時候
The money doesn't work, the chain doesn't work
錢沒什麼卵用,金鍊子也沒什麼卵用
Something broken in my brain, got me praying in the dirt
有時我腦內迸出的黑暗,嚇得我跪在塵土中祈禱
Got me stranded in my bed like I'm laying in the hearse
讓我像躺在靈車裡一樣僵硬的躺在床上
And the grass is always greener when you play on astroturf
人們總是喜新厭舊

And got some weed and got some purp
大麻和紫飲
And got some bars and got some syurp

I'm tryna find God through a purchase, I'm not tryna go to church
我通過買買買來尋找信仰,而不是去教堂
Amen, Satan, told me not to serve, I only think about myself, I only think about my work
阿門,撒旦,它告訴我無需苦修,唯一需要我去在意的,只有我自己
I only think about my come-up , capitalism
我只在意自己的收入和好處,資本主義style
Look at where we come from, we are what we run from
回首我們一開始的地方,現在的我們就是當初的我們追隨的目標
We are why we smoke some, so numb, so numb, so numb

Time is moving fast and I'm running with a pair of scissors
時間飛逝,我屁股後有利器逼著我向前奔跑
