Breakfast

I saved my life recreating some sound scapes
You swig a paper bag for long enough and the ground shakes
I sold a couple records not a flex it’s a down payment
You know your girl’s a fan but she won’t say where she found Slake
About that...
Moral of the story is we trying, kids
I wasted years tryna figure out why i exist
i told my managers you need me you can fly my in
i told Keat the family will feed off my likenesses
And I meant that
And I meant that
And I meant that
And I meant that shit
And I meant that shit
He lies, we lie, they lie, she lies
The body don't forget jack shit
(palm trees palms trees palm trees palm trees palm trees)
Eating on the intro that's what breakfast is
(palm trees palms trees palm trees palm trees palm trees)
The body don't forget that shit
Okay okay okay
I just need some cute nails and a long inhale
Honestly I aint seen an L in so damn long
we pen pals
I got homies on the west coast playing red rover with their brain cells
Got a good friend and we make out
Got the same birthday as J Balvin
Like do tell, my guy
Put a Rolly on my unemployment fucking debit card got a clean conscience, yeah
They been rosey with the cameras on they been giving you sweet nonsense
She like you don’t get to screenshot this
I might just give her discrete noggin
I wake up to give cheek kisses
Make a beat
Take a beat yee-haw-stage
Goomie Houser in the peacoat my theme song my crucifix
Funny looking little twenty something gave my youngest minutes to the 206
Money movement gave me tunnel vision but my cunnilingus made me luminous
I think I could get used to this
Favorite rapper yelling who is this
Lotus flowers in my teeth now when I see God I make music with her
Some of y’all got three houses
Maybe we’ll be eating you for dinner
Google 52 Slansky trials
I got violence in my true religions
Really tryna let the movement in
Bring the hook back ooo you wish
Run the track till my dogs bark
Syphon gas from that cop car
I was wack then I am wack now
But you have to know about me, Nardwuar
We get life in a glass house on a giant rock from a dying star
Homie do not tell me what my brand is
Do not tell me what the odds are
Run the track till my dogs bark
Not a rapper I'm a pop star
Wack then; wack now
Gotta know about me, Nardwuar
We get life in a glass house on a giant rock from a dying star
Bitch do not tell me what my brand is
Do not tell me what the odds are

What was the whole fucking point of public school
That shit must have been a typo
I was told if I’m good I can see God maybe catch a light show
But the local pastor kept a loaded magnum in the hollow back of his bible
That’s life though
I’m just grabbing my popcorn
Text saying we should talk more
See a lotta of things I think are funny make some people wonder bout me
Maybe y'all are boring, I'm fun
(Fun!)
Don't be the same as you was
(Fun!)
Don't get impressive cuz once you impressive you never impressive enough
Hush (Hush!)
I need a day to exist
That shit ain't paying my rent
So might as well make myself rich

Move back!
Give me space to grow
Give me kisses while I’m living don’t you chase my ghost
I’m too fast
I don’t wait for pulpit
I’m a goddamn legend if you came for the quotes
And this is play time
I been Beethoven day tripping on the bass line
Got your face hole way open
It’s a great 5 minutes
The way we slide in it
Face first lapping up your waves like Venice
Certified menace to your dad, stay hidden
If he catches me imma need a damn eye witness, wait
Hold up, can I get vibe checketh?
Wait, hold up, can I get a- ah fuck it
High stepping like original simp
The juice helps me break the ice like it’s Disney within
If I’m the tri-state area you're my Perry Platypus
Tear me up baby I don’t care what this is
We sippin' Bombay and Julio in the hotel pool
My Ms. Agave you sweet you spinning me back to your room
Ah ah ah
Baby I don't wanna break the rules
But I want another taste of you
Baby I don't wanna break the rules break the rules
Want another taste of you

[Verse 1] [Slake]
Darling am I pleasing for ya
If you need I’ll bring you California
On my knees they hear us down the hall
All of me with all of you involved
Eyes on the wall like you better not tell on us
Beautiful silhouette skeletons
I just wanna feel you breathing
You the only one can shut me up
Say you broken you okay to me
You don’t know what I got baked in me
In your hands I am clay in pieces
In your pocket I wait patiently
I just know you look like grace to me
I want you bad I want you mad indecent
I want everything your past and present
If it’s good you make great it me
If you need I’ll bring you California
All of me with all of you involved
[Chorus] [Caleb.]
Silk blush
Bring me out of me
Easy
More
Couldn’t look away if i wanted
Nothing I could say but I want it
Mmm
More
More
[Verse 2] [Slake]
When I’m in my body
I can see the city in the glint of your glasses
I think I can see it all as it happens
I think I got time for this
When the clock don’t tick
And your eyes roll back
And your legs close in
And our phones keep napping
When I’m in my body (Hey!)
I know why I get like this
Your touch has an innocence
If I could stay flush with your skin
If I could wake up and then do this again
If i could turn every minute to infinite eye colored images
that is clutch i could live within
[Chorus] [Caleb.]
Silk blush
Bring me out of me
Easy
More
Couldn’t look away if i wanted
Nothing I could say but I want it
Mmm

[Verse 1]
When the shit's already hit the fan
When the shit’s already hit the fan
Yeah yeah
Never ran quick but I ran out of oxygen
I pissed off the neighborhood watch again
It's like: everybody on they rockstar shit
Till they call you on stage from the audience
And when the shit’s already hit the blades;
Hit the backdrop
Pretty isn’t real it’s a back lot
Did I get it all backwards?
Can I get it all back?
Hm.
*Beat switch*
(Vocalization)
Did I get it all backwards?
Can I get it all back?
Mmmm
Did I get it all backwards?
Can I get it all, wait-
Faith never made a bump in the concrete
This is not luck this is just me stomping
I was told speak shut up be hot be love be unapologetically sorry
I think i’m mixing it up again
Did it get it all backwards?
Did it get it all backwards?
I don't-
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna fuck up
Ahhhhhhhhh
Should I break my tongue
Will it fix my breath
Should I hate what I’ve done
When I did my best
Can we please not rush
Ahhhhhhhhhh
What about all the things that get left in the world
When you get left in the world
World
Hey
[Verse 2]
My me I miss my old place
My me I slept the whole day again
And my me what a difficult name
Is it difficult?
Am i difficult?
My me I miss this old face
My me I’m tripping out on my waist again
Who I see when the video plays
Can be difficult
(I don't wanna fuck up)
Stop picking at your face you will hurt that
How you gonna ever give a grade to a first draft?
I was told play isn’t life it’s a phase
But my life wasn’t made for you, so
(Can we please not rush)
Why do I worry about all this?
What kind of me am I offering?
What kind of me did you want again?
I wanna live
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna fuck up
Ahhhhhhhhh
Should I break my tongue
Will it fix my breath
Should I hate what I’ve done
When I did my best
Can we please not rush
Ahhhhhhhhhh
What about all the things that get left in the world
When you get left in the world
World
Hey
*beat switch*
[Verse 3]
In your digital medium I am often at large
I don’t see what you see
See we are who we are
I’m the son of a daughter who come to Washington partly by way of California took the Slansky name under God
Mom.
Two kids had to wrangle like the rodeo
If I ever make it she gon' tell 'em all "I told you so"
Mom and Papa proper did the splits
It is what it is
I was pretty rigid as a kid
I've been growing though
You hit your twenties and the broke hits different
The road hits different
Tequila in your throat hits different
Your folks can’t fix it
Your phone light on the roach can’t fix it
You say you know me then why the tip of your nose extending?
Gosh
Nowadays I assume that you’ve known loss
Nowadays we don’t do it if we won’t profit
And the geniuses keep moving the wrong margins
And your music isn’t music if it’s not content
And that local venue’s quickly, uh, out of options
So the lenders are promotors now you can’t stop it
But they always keep the sign in the box office
So you keep walking
So you keep walking
You gotta keep walking
Keep walk keep walking
Walk on walk on walk on

[Vocalization]
Well I didn't help ya
I didn't help ya
Well I didn't-
[Verse 1]
Where’d you go
How’ve you been
You changed your number
I changed my friends
I paid my debts
And then they raised my rent
And then I raised my voice until I had none left
[Hook]
And I walked on
I walked on
I walked on
I walked on
[Verse 2]
Bide my time
Bite my tongue
I made my choices
I made you run
I think I talk too much
I don't say shit
And this whole world's fucked
I used to really want kids
[Hook]
But I walked on
I walked on
I walked on
[Bridge]
What makes you think I can care for you?
I eat my dinner on the kitchen floor like I always do
What makes you think I care care for you?
And why is that surprising?
I can't care for my own tattoos
What makes you think I can care for you?
(What makes you think I can care for you?)
I eat my dinner on the kitchen floor like I always do
(I always do)
What makes you think I care care for you?
And why is that surprising?
I can't care for my own tattoos
[Chorus]
So are we gonna tell them
What comes next
(I walked on)
I wish I could talk my way out of how I'm feeling
Are we gonna tell them
What comes next
What comes next
What should I tell myself
Just in case I need it
Just in case I need it
Just in case I need it
What should I tell myself
Just in case I need it

I just wanna be okay
I just wanna
I just wanna be honest

I just wanna

[Verse 1] [Slake]
I just wanna smile bright so bright need a sleep mask
I am not shy you should please ask
I just want my money so high bring ski pants
If I light it it will never need a pre-amp
If I write it it will never be the pre-amble
All the broke kids love me like a free sample
On my Chopin shit I'm in pole position
I've been sleeping in my car since Seattle uh
Norman to Dallas through Denton
Tour gives you homies and exits
Tour makes you money but money’s expensive
I don't pay rent with your mentions
I don’t do that top five ten shit
I ain't tryna kick it in your club, that’s Juventus
I want a party of seven on Sunday at Fenwick’s
I want a friend for the ending
[Hook]
I just wanna
I just wanna be okay
I just wanna
I just wanna be honest
I just wanna
I just wanna be okay
I just wanna
I just wanna be honest
I just wanna
I just wanna be okay
I just wanna
I just wanna be honest
I just wanna
I just wanna be okay
I just wanna
I just wanna be honest
[Verse 2] [Teza]
Everything sucks I don't wanna be a quitter
Fuck you
Fake news
Swear it's all making me sick
Hear my phone ring don't wanna talk either
Say I'm so cold but karma's that bitch
Momma it's just two-seater: me and my bag
Doubt me just play my shit
I'm on the road freeing my feelings
So you understand fighting through it takes a risk
Yuh
I've been lost before
Won't be there again
My against myself
Till the fucking end
Cuz
[Hook} [Both]
I just wanna
I just wanna be okay
I just wanna be okay
[Slake]
I just wanna know
I wanna be over this
[Teza]
I just wanna be honest
[Slake}
I just wanna move through the night
[Teza]
I just wanna be
[Slake]
Dance through the day
Never see the whites of my eyes
With my hands on my face
[Teza]
I just wanna be okay
[Slake]
I just wanna be
I just wanna be
[Both]
I just wanna
I just wanna be okay

Highway 99

(Chorus)
Highway 99 are the roads dry
I don’t make it back enough north side
I was sitting passenger the whole time
And it all came peacefully
Highway 99 are the roads dry
Just a couple skellies on a cold night
Wonder what you’re thinkin bout on your side
Cuz it all came peacefully
mm mm
mm mm
Cuz it all came peacefully
(Verse 1)
once in a while imma let you be nice to me
can you say it soft say it twice to me
who my grandma sees that is who i’m trying to be
but i get that double vision in the driver’s seat
who you running away from
when i give to you there’s nobody it takes from
got that louisville slugger you practically grew up with but you running out of people you can chase love
(Chorus 2)
Highway 99 are the roads dry
I don’t make it back enough north side
I was sitting passenger the whole time
And it all came peacefully
Highway 99 are the roads dry
Just a couple skellies on a cold night
Wonder what you’re thinkin bout on your side
Cuz it all came peacefully
mm mm
mm mm
Cuz it all came peacefully
(Verse 2)
still on my broke shit
never stuck my nose out
still got covid
still aint read your message
only real if it’s opened
i don’t fear the hate
i fear becoming unnoticed
The rain starts to stick to the windshield
You ask me if i ever thought we’d get here
But i’m still tryna figure out where here is
So I tell you that my first job was near ish
My first dog never saw me do adult shit
So i hold every puppy just exactly how i’d hold him
When they get to heaven they got something they can talk about
I swear you know me like my nose know my momma’s house
I swear you hold me like i’m tryna hold my momma down
Way too many homies jumped ship when we charted south
Wait until the river ‘fore you harpeth out
Wade into the river if she callin now
i like my shit uncolonized I keep my god unpronounced
Keep my music short and sweet just in case i gotta bounce
You wanna be followed but be followed how
i don’t wanna reach the finish line and be hollowed out
i use my pen to put it all in sound
You used to pencil in your darker brows
And there’s some very different versions of ourselves who’d be awful proud
I think i hear them talking now
(Chorus 3)
Highway 99 are the roads dry
I don’t make it back enough north side
I was sitting passenger the whole time
And it all came peacefully
Highway 99 are the roads dry
Just a couple skellies on a cold night
Wonder what you’re thinkin bout on your side
Cuz it all came peacefully
mm mm
mm mm
Cuz it all came peacefully

When I’m in your town say hey
when i make sound press play

I just had a lonely day
Bright lights leave impressions

You really only know my name yeah
When I’m in your town say hey

I just had a lonely day
Bright lights leave impressions
they like oh he’s changed
I have never looked my age
You really only know my name yeah
(Verse 1)
Conversate with my walls I built in my boxes
I been chasing my breath for most of my life but hey I aint stop yet
Time takes so I drop shit
god is gay and agnostic
I can jot to page and prognosticate but it’s blind faith in my cockpit
when i’m conscious I'm-
terrified of my head
i think all of our best days become screenshots
but i’m paranoid that i’ll stare myself to death
pre-apocalypse wiah

mid-apocalypse woah now
mid-apocalypse woah now
terrrified of my head
too aware what I've left
too aware what I've left
Too afraid that I can't make it out clean now and these screenshots might leap off my desk.
Mid apocalypse breath
Mid-apocalypse whoa now
Terrified that my dad is gonna die wondering where I've been
And all I'll have are these texts
And all I'll have are these screenshots and I'll stare myself to death
Mid-apocalypse breath
Mid-apocalypse
Mid-apocalypse
When I'm in your town say hey
(Chorus)
When I’m in your town say hey
when i make sound press play
when i get down be patient
I just had a lonely day
Bright lights leave impressions
they like oh he’s changed
I have never looked my age
You really only know my name yeah
(Reprise)
Conversate with my walls I built in my boxes
I been chasing my breath for most of my life but hey I aint stop yet
Time takes so I
Time takes so I
Time takes so I
I breathe
I eat
I yearn
I reach
I please
I shrink
I hide
I seek
