Float on Songtext

von Cities Aviv

Yo, bird's eye over cloud nine
Took a day off, guess I'mma stay off
And you could go ahead and put me in the sequel
But we gave away the ending cause the beginning was see through
Love, hold you close to my lungs, you're my equal
Torn from my ribs, created on times easel
But the common times hold the modern man down
So I had to hit 'em with that modern man sound
Back to the walls, bleeding from a tape deck
I'm wishing on a star that I've never even seen yet
I'm in the crevice of your stone cold presence
And still I can't talk with my money on the worst bet
I'm on the south coast, smoking that home grown
Waking up to strangers and sleeping in different time zones
Maybe I should fly home
, lately, I can't take it
Room full of silence lost in translation
Maybe the fans hate him, maybe these souls love him
Hearin' them sci-fi; word to my dead cousin
And everybody I never shed a tear for
Like what the fuck you care for? Baby I'm here for you
Cause if these bridges fall down, I'll be the ground for you
And if this world stops turning, I'mma turn for you
Walk through fire and acid ‘til I burn to ashes
And resurrect with a fearless passion
A nigga never gave in,
Baby, I put out
More than I put in
And I could never live
Up to that bar that you placed above the stars
Looking at you through the mirror, let me show you who I are
Traveling man, like Mos def
With this pain that I'm feeling lately, it's most def
Bloody hands from the rusted nails
Never let this world tell you love can't fail
Because the second that you leap, the ground will cave in
From under your feet and your whole life comes crashing
On to the next one, put your heart in other people
Search high and low trying to find another equal
And every time you go to sleep you see your life flash
Can't predict the storm from this manmade forecast
So I coast like a ghost all the way home
Up from the cracks and the smoke,
I will float on
